【题目】阅读理解
To me, inspirations mean to put my thoughts, heart, and creations into my jewelry. Sometimes I become so inspired with what I'm working on that I can finish one or more sets in less than an hour. Because of that feeling, I have named my jewelry collection “Inspirations”.
I am a 17-year-old student with sickle-cell anemia. With this, I am in and out of the hospital a lot. So I started making jewelry a year ago when I was in the hospital. I really needed something to do, so I was introduced to jewelry making by a child life expert.
One day while lying in my hospital bed, I decided to get up and go to the patient's playroom ,and look through the craft designs. That was when I became inspired to design my jewelry collection, and named it “Inspirations”.
When I'm not sick, I try to keep a positive attitude through reading, schoolwork and craft activities. Even though there is a lot of work, I try to stay focused all the time. When I need a break or just to be free I turn to my craft activities. This is a way to ease my mind and it always helps me to especially get through those stressful times.
I am getting very excited about graduating next year and preparing myself for college. Who knows my collection of “Inspirations” would take me to the places I always dreamed of? I may see celebrities I admire and even sell them some of my beautiful “Inspirations”. If they wear my “Inspirations”, it will be well known and in great demand. What a great way to make some extra money for college! I never thought being sick would bring me “Inspirations”. I want people to look beyond my illness and see the creations I've made in my collection called “Inspirations”.

【解析】这是一篇记叙性的文章,讲述了一位十七岁的学生因为镰状细胞性贫血而常常进医院,他在这里接触到了珠宝创作并在其中找到了自己的灵感,即将高中毕业的他希望通过他的灵感制作的珠宝能为他上大学筹钱。
(1)词义猜测。根据划线词紧接着的后文“With this, I am in and out of the hospital a lot”:由于这个原因,我常常进出医院。可推断这是一位患病的学生,故选B。
(2)推理判断题。根据最后一段第一句:I am getting very excited about graduating next year and preparing myself for college,我对于明年毕业为上大学做准备很兴奋。可知作者明年上大学而不是大学毕业,故C错误;作者还未高中毕业仍是一名高中生,故D正确。作者并未提及毕业后计划成为珠宝设计师,故A错误。作者未提及未来想当医生,故B错误。故选D。
(3)主旨大意题。根据文章整体内容,可知文章主要讲了作者因生病而制作珠宝创造灵感的事情,重点是由这场病给他带来的灵感,B、C、D都是文章的内容但是偏离了文章的主题。故选A。
