Question

阅读理解 　　“Mom, can I bake some bread?” We were 15, my best friend, Hanna, and I, determined to try our hands at creating some beautiful bread． 　　“It's not worth the trouble,” my mother said．“It takes lots of time and makes a big mess．Our bakery bread is delicious without all that effort．” 　　Begging was useless．Mom's “no” meant “No!” 　　But several weeks later, opportunity knocked：My parents were going out for the evening．I immediately invited Hanna to be my partner in bread-baking crime． 　　We studied the recipe．That was easy．“Mix oil into flour, then beat in four of the eggs, one at a time, with remaining sugar and salt．” 　　We were not good at breaking eggs．I tried to learn from my mother． 　　“Gradually add eight cups of flour．When dough(面团)holds together, squeeze it．” 　　We took turns working like that．“Is the dough ‘holding together’?” we asked each other．I remembered my neighbor's instructions：“If it's too sticky, add some flour; if too dry, add water．” 　　We added water．Then more flour．Then more water．By then, the mass of our dough had grown very much． 　　“Place dough on floured surface and squeeze till smooth,” the recipe instructed．We took turns burying our hands in the damp dough, pinching, squeezing, and feeling it leak between fingers． 　　“Clean and oil bowl, then return dough to bowl．Cover and let dough rise in warm place for 1 hour．” 　　This was good news－we'd have a break．On dirtied kitchen chairs, we dreamed about our beautiful bread．“See?” we would tell my mom．“Isn't it worth the work?” 　　Hanna and I couldn't help glancing at the rising process every few minutes．But nothing was happening． 　　“Maybe something will happen in the hot oven, ”I said． 　　Unfortunately, when we removed the loaves from the oven, they were like hard stones． 　　Mom was right; it takes time and effort．Since that night, both Hanna and I have learned to do it right．It sometimes makes a mess．But still it feels good, somehow, to be part of that long, ongoing chain of bread bakers． (1) To the writer, what her mother said was ________． [　　] A． law B． rubbish C． advice D． warning (2) Which of the following can best describe the children's feelings while making their first bread? [　　] A． Confident; hopeful; disappointed． B． Curious; hopeful; disappointed． C． Interested; excited; satisfied． D． Worried; satisfied; proud． (3) Which of the following did the writer do without instructions? [　　] A． Placed dough on floured surface． B． Added eight cups of flour to eggs． C． Returned dough to a cleaned bowl． D． Placed the dough into the hot oven． (4) The passage mainly tells us ________． [　　] A． the process of making bread B． the conflict between mother and daughter C． the first experience of making bread D． the way of doing housework

Answer 1

答案：1．A;2．B;3．D;4．C;
解析：

(1)	推理判断题。根据最后1段Mom was right; it takes time and effort．说明作者认为母亲的话是符合准则的。
(2)	推理判断题。孩子们看见母亲制作出这么好的面包很好奇，自己也来亲自体验一下，面团发好后，充满希望地等待，但结果却做成了黑色的石头。因此可用“好奇，希望，失望”这三个形容词形容他们的的心理过程。
(3)	推理判断题。孩子们开始是严格按照菜谱上的说明做的，但把面团放在炉子上是作者自己的主张。
(4)	解析：主旨大意题。本文主要讲述了作者在15岁时与同龄伙伴在母亲不在家时自己制作面包的经历，答案选择C。 　　文章大意：看见母亲做出来的香甜可口的面包，孩子自然是非常羡慕，希望能亲自制作自己的面包，当央求母亲同意未果后，在父母不在家时，利用难得的机会邀来伙伴然后开始制作面包，他们按照书上的说明一步步操作，虽然结果还是失败，但作者仍从中受到了教育。
