题目内容

The house was quiet at 5 am and Tim’s mother was asleep. Only the sound of the big freezer broke the quiet. He’d dreamt of the cave last night. The purring（轻微颤动声）of the freezer had been the sea.
Tim pulled on a sweater and put some apples into his schoolbag. It was too early for breakfast. He’d eat after he’d been through the cave, sitting on the rocks and staring at the sea.
He wished he had a proper pack. His schoolbag would have to do. What else? Sandwiches—but his mother might wake up if he started pulling out bread for sandwiches. She’d want to know why he had to leave so early. He settled for some biscuits, and left a note stuck to the table:
Gone to Michael’s. Back tonight, Tim.
The sky was high and soft and light outside, though the sun still wasn’t up. Even the highway up the hill was quiet as he made his way down the street. The wind from the sea was fresh and sweet.
The sand hills still breathed heat from yesterday’s sun, though the top of the sand was cool. He ran down to the beach impatiently, but there was no one, just dry sand dancing in the early wind and seabirds marching up and down watching the waves.
The light changed suddenly. The first rays of sunlight stretched (延伸) across the sea. The sun was pushing its way over the edge of the world.
Over the first rocks, along to the point, Tim glanced back. The beach was still empty. The sun sailed higher in the sky.
He could see the cave now, even darker in the morning light. The sand turned silver then dark gold as the water flowed away from it. He had to force himself to go closer. Why was it so much more mysterious now? But it would be silly to go back now after so much trouble. He needn’t go in all the way...

解析试题分析：文章描写Tim夜里偷偷离开家，到海边山洞探险的故事，描写细致，有景色的描写和人物的心理活动。
【小题1】细节题：从第三段的句子：Gone to Michael’s. Back tonight, Tim.可知在文章的开头，Tim离开了家。选A。
【小题2】句意理解题：在本题中，在句子He settled for some biscuits的上文中说but his mother might wake up if he started pulling out bread for sandwiches, she' d want to know why he had to leave so early.（如果他拿面包当三明治吃，他的妈妈就会醒来问他为什么这么早就离家。）所以，为了不惊醒他妈妈，他settled for some biscuits（只好拿一些饼干了），所以，正确的答案只能是C. had to take biscuits instead of sandwiches 。选C
【小题3】细节题：从倒数第三段的句子：The light changed suddenly. The first rays of sunlight stretched (延伸) across the sea. The sun was pushing its way over the edge of the world.
可知因为太阳光线的变化，Tim看见了山洞。选C
【小题4】细节题：从第五段的句子：He ran down to the beach impatiently, but there was no one, 可知海滩上只有Tim一个人。选C
【小题5】推理题：从第五段的句子：He ran down to the beach impatiently, but there was no one 可知Tim一开始很渴望，从最后一段的句子：Why was it so much more mysterious now? But it would be silly to go back now after so much trouble.可知他后来有点紧张。选D
考点：考查故事类短文
点评：读记叙文的关键是抓情节。抓住了故事情节，就理解了文章的脉络，其他的就迎刃而解了。记叙文的叙事顺序有顺叙和倒叙两种，有时候作者为了吸引读者会采用倒叙的方法，即不按照事情发展的先后顺序来叙述，而是从最重要、最能引人入胜的事件开始，然后再回过头来追叙故事的开端和经过。阅读时要学会从事情本身的发展去理解故事情节而不要只看事件在文中出现的先后位置。
