题目内容

【题目】When I was 12, all I wanted was a signet (图章) ring. They were the "in" thing and it seemed every girl except me had one. On my 13th birthday, my Mum gave me a signet ring with my initials(姓名首字母) carved into it. I was in heaven.

What made it even more special was that it was about the only thing that wasn't being "replaced". We'd been burnt out in fires that swept through our area earlier that year and had lost everything—so most of the " new" stuff (东西) we got was really just to replace what we'd lost. But not my ring. My ring was new.

Then, only one month later, I lost it. I took it off before bed and it was missing in the morning. I was sad and searched everywhere for it. But it seemed to have disappeared. Eventually, I gave up and stopped looking for it. And two years later, we sold the house and moved away.

Years passed, and a couple of moves later, I was visiting my parents' when Mum told me that she had something for me. It wasn't my birthday, nor was it Easter or Christmas or any other gift-giving occasion. Mum noticed my questioning look. " You'll recognize this one," she said, smiling.

Then she handed me a small ring box. I took it from her and opened it to find my beautiful signet ring inside. The family who had bought our house 13 years earlier had recently decided to do some redecorations, which included replacing the carpets. hen they pulled the carpet up in my old bedroom, they found the ring. As it had my initials carved into it, they realized who owned the ring. They'd had it professionally cleaned up by a jeweler before sending it to my mother. And it still fits me.

【1】When she got the ring back, the writer was about _____.

A.13 years old B.15 years old

C.26 years old D.28 years old

2Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A.The writer's family moved several times.

B.The writer never stopped looking for her ring.

C.The writer's ring was cleaned up by the new house owner.

D.The writer lost her ring in the morning when she took it off.

3What would be the best title for the passage?

A.My New Ring B.Lost and Found

C.Lost and Replaced D.An Expensive Ring

【答案】

【1】D

【2】A

【3】B

【解析】

试题分析:本文为一篇记叙文,记叙了作者自己所珍爱的一枚“图章戒指”失而复得的故事。

【1】D细节理解题。根据文章第一段可知“在我13岁生日的时候,妈妈给了我一枚这样的戒指作为生日礼物”,后来这枚戒指丢了;再根据第三段的最后“两年后我们卖掉了房子”和倒数第二段中“13年前买我们房子的那家人对房子进行装修,换地毯时发现了我丢失的戒指”,由此可计算出作者的戒指失而复得的时间为作者28岁时。

【2】A细节理解题。结合文章第四段Years passed,and a couple of moves later...可知“作者一家搬了好几次家”,因此选项A正确。由第三段知“作者在晚上睡觉前摘下了戒指,第二天早晨就找不到了”,因此选项D错误。由文章倒数第二段最后一句可知C项错误。由第三段倒数第二句可知B项错误。

【3】B主旨大意题。本文以一枚“图章戒指”为线索,记叙了作者这枚戒指失而复得的过程,因此选项B是文章的中心。最大干扰项是D项An Expensive Ring“一枚昂贵的戒指”,这枚戒指仅仅是作者的妈妈送给她的生日礼物,原文并没有说这枚戒指是昂贵的,因此选项D错误。

【学法指导】

抓住文章主线和关键词语,归纳文章中心。要注意不是所有的段落都有主题句,有时主题句暗含在句中。阅读这样的文章,就需要自己根据文章的细节来分析,概括出段落的主题,从而推导出文章的主旨。分析的方法是:先弄清该段落主要讲了哪几方面的内容,这些内容在逻辑上有什么联系,然后加以归纳形成主题。【3】B主旨大意题。本文以一枚“图章戒指”为线索,记叙了作者这枚戒指失而复得的过程,因此选项B是文章的中心。最大干扰项是D项An Expensive Ring“一枚昂贵的戒指”,这枚戒指仅仅是作者的妈妈送给她的生日礼物,原文并没有说这枚戒指是昂贵的,因此选项D错误。

Albert Einstein offered us more than just the amazing theory of relativity and E=mc2. Through his persistence in his discoveries in science, Einstein shined a light on how each of us can do the impossible by working hard, experiencing failure,and valuing people. 【1】 _

“If you can’t explain it to a six years old, you don’t understand it yourself.”—Albert Einstein

The more complicated you have to make something seem, the more you do not understand the inner workings of it. 2 Did they make even the most complicated topics full of vocabulary that you did not understand or did they make it easier to understand by simplifying?

Chinese are very generous when it comes to educating their children. Not caring about the money, parents often send their children to the best schools or even abroad to England, the United States and Australia. They also want their children to take extra-course activities where they will either learn a musical instrument or ballet, or other classes which will give them a head start in life. 【1】 So parents will spend an unreasonable amount of money on education. 2 However, what most parents fail to see is that the best early education they can give their children is usually very cheap.

Parents can see that their children’s skills differ. Some children are very skilled in some areas while poor in others. 3 The problem is that parents are only educating their children on how to take multiple-choice tests and how to study well, but parents are not teaching them the most important skills that they need to be confident, happy and clever.

Parents can achieve this by teaching practical skills like cooking, sewing and doing other housework. Teaching a child to cook will improve many of the skills that he will need later in

life. 4 It is an enjoyable but difficult experience. A good cook always tries to improve his cooking, so he will learn to work hard and gradually finish his job successfully step by step. The result, a well-cooked dinner, will give him much satisfaction and lots of self-confidence.

Some old machines, such as a broken radio or TV set that you give your child to play with will make him curious and arouse his interest. He will spend hours looking at them, trying to repair them; your child might become an engineer when he grows up. 5 And that is more important.

A. Even poor couples will buy a computer for their son or daughter.

B. The more cost in education, the better the result will be.

C. Cooking requires patience and time.

D. What most parents fail to realize though, is that today's children are badly off for self-respect and self-confidence.

E. The Chinese believe that the more expensive an education is, the better it is.

F. These activities are not only teaching a child to read a book, but rather to think, to use his mind.

G. Thus, the more the children use the computer, the better the result will be.

【题目】I went to the Tsavo National Park in northern Kenya for a film. We set off early for a distant water hole. A huge elephant covered with dry mud, drank calmly and deeply. He might have traveled 50 km to reach the water. He wasn’t going to hurry now. He’d drink a while and rest in the shade, and then drink again or so we thought. What actually happened was that he drank deeply and stepped away. Then he suddenly fell down. Within minutes he was dead.

We called animal doctor Jeremiah Poghon immediately. He removed the head of a poisoned arrow from the elephant’s body, and let out over 100 liters of pus ()the result of the elephant’s meeting with a poacher(偷猎者)months before.

Today's poacher shoots from a blind. He fires an arrow, covered with poison, into the body of an elephant. If the poacher is lucky, the elephant might die in an hour or two; if not, he might have to follow the elephant for days before it dies. Often the arrow head fails to kill the elephant at onceit doesn't mean the poison won't finally kill the elephant, but it will be a slow death.

Living in Tsavo through these times, I could see the results of poaching from time to time. When I think about the death of that elephant, what stays with me is the extraordinary silence after the shocking sound of his body hitting the ground. I took some comfort from the knowledge that as the dead body returned to the soil, some animals would benefitbut I couldn't escape the feeling that with the death of such a large animal, the world seemed to be a poorer and emptier place.

1While filming near the water hole, the author and his team ________.

A. knew the elephant was injured

B. found the elephant acted violently

C. tried their best to save the elephant

D. thought the elephant was in good condition

2Further examination showed that the dead elephant________.

A. had suffered an hour or two

B. was killed by a poisonous needle

C. had suffered a lot

D. had had a good fight with a poacher

3How does the author feel when thinking about the elephant s death?

A. empty. B. comfortable. C. upset. D. relieved.

4Why did the author write the text?

A. To introduce African elephant.

B. To show the cruelty of poaching.

C. To describe his filming experience.

D. To ask readers to protect wild animals.
