题目内容

A few years ago, I moved into a new house in Los Angeles. Soon after, a family moved in next door. It wasn’t the best of times for me. I had just divorced(离婚) from my second wife, and I wasn’t working. I’d come home each day and sit by myself in the backyard. One night, I heard someone from the yard next door, “Tom ! How are you, Tom? ” 

I couldn’t see anybody through the trees, but I answered, “I’ m good.”

“Good!” said the voice.

“What’s your name?” I asked.

“Eric.” Then I heard someone say, “Eric, don’t bother him.”

“Okay!” Eric said. “Talk to you tomorrow!”                                                                           

Months later, on Halloween, we finally met face to face. Eric came to the door dressed like a rap star. We became friends. We’d hang out in our yards, and Eric, who was almost 17 at the time and look liked a 13-year-old, would tell me his ideas and dreams. Eric’s dad, Alec Gores, is a billionaire(亿万富翁), the head of Gores Technology Group.

One day, Alec called me and said, “I know you are an actor. My son’s an actor, too. And he’s very good. I want you to write a movie for him. He wants to do something like True lies.” That’s the movie I made in 1994. His father has given Eric the great gif of confidence. He believes he can do anything he wants. He also offered to fund the movie. And that’s how The Kid & I, which opens in November, began.

Well, I really have to say that opportunity(机会)lies anywhere.

试题分析:

1.细节题。从第一段I had just divorced(离婚) from my second wife, and I wasn’t working. I’d come home each day and sit by myself in the backyard.中可知作者和他的第二任妻子离婚了,也没有工作,每天独自坐在后院里。故选C

2.细节题。第八段One day, Alec called me and said, “I know you are an actor.可知,作者是一名演员。故选B

3.细节题。第七段Months later, on Halloween, we finally met face to face. Eric came to the door dressed like a rap star. We became friends. We’d hang out in our yards, and Eric, who was almost 17 at the time and look liked a 13-year-old, would tell me his ideas and dreams. Eric’s dad, Alec Gores, is a billionaire(亿万富翁), the head of Gores Technology Group. 在万圣节上,Eric的装扮像一个说唱歌手,他的父亲是个亿万富翁,是戈尔科技集团的总裁。并没有说,他只和他父亲生活在一起,也未提到他感到过寂寞。故选B

4.推断题。由倒数第二段,Eric的父亲知道作者是一个演员,他的儿子也是一个演员。他想让作者为Eric写一部电影,他会为电影投资。这样,《孩子和我》这部电影就在11月份开工了。故选A

5.主旨题。最后一段I really have to say that opportunity(机会)lies anywhere.作者不得不说,机会无处不在。故选C

考点:记叙文
