Last Christmas，when I was in the fourth grade and my brother was in the first grade，our school held its yearly Holiday Shop．At the Holiday Shop students can buy things like necklaces，key chains，and other small items for their friends and family as Christmas gifts．Since my brother really wanted to take part，my mom gave him two dollars to buy his Christmas gifts．
My mom didn't know that he had picked out a special necklace for her．When he got home from the Holiday Shop that day，he couldn't wait to show it to me．He pulled out a little green box and opened it．Inside was a golden chain with golden letters that spelled out："Grandmother"．
"Wow!"I said．"It's beautiful．"Since my brother was in the first grade and was just learning to read，he didn't realize that the necklace said"Grandmother"instead of"Mother"．I knew that on Christmas morning，when he found out he had bought the wrong necklace，he would be unhappy，so I said nothing more about it．My brother ran and put the necklace under his bed to hide it from Mom until Christmas morning．
When he wasn't looking，I took the necklace and put it in my backpack．The next day I took it to school and asked the woman who ran the Holiday Shop if I could change it for the"Mother"necklace．She said yes．When I got home that day，I put the necklace under my brother's bed．
When my mom opened it up on Christmas morning，my brother was so exalted!My mom's eyes were filled with joy．She knew what had happened，which made the necklace even more special to her!
My brother still does not know what I did，but I know I did the right thing．

56．The underlined word"exalted"in the last second paragraph is the closest in meaning to"C"．
A．surprised B．disappointed
C．excited D．worried
57．It can be inferred from the passage thatA．
A．the author helped his brother secretly
B．the author paid for the right necklace
C．the author's grandmother also received a gift
D．the author's mother didn't know what he had done
58．Which can be the best title for the passage？D
A．My Lovely Younger Brother
B．An Unforgettable Experience
C．Our School's Yearly Holiday Shop
D．A Special Christmas Gift for Mom．

分析本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了"我"的弟弟在圣诞节前在学校的节日商店为妈妈买了一个项链作为圣诞礼物，但因为年龄小不知道项链上写的是"祖母"而不是"妈妈"，为了不让弟弟在圣诞节难过，"我"悄悄拿去换了．这是一个充满了爱的故事，弟弟对妈妈的爱，"我"对弟弟的爱．

解答 CAD
56．C 词义猜测题根据文章倒数第3行When my mom opened it up on Christmas morning，my brother was so exalted!My mom's eyes were filled with joy．中的My mom's eyes were filled with joy．妈妈很高兴，可以推断弟弟看到妈妈如此开心，他也很兴奋，因为他的礼物得到了妈妈的认可．故C正确．
57．A 推理判断题根据文章最后一行My brother still does not know what I did，but I knew I had done the right thing．可知弟弟直到现在也不知道这件事，说明作者是偷偷地帮助了他的兄弟，故A正确．
58．D 主旨大意题本文讲述了弟弟给妈妈买了一个圣诞礼物，但是因为他不识字，买成了给奶奶的了．我偷偷地帮她把项链换成了买给妈妈的．这对于妈妈来说是含有特殊含义的一份生日礼物，故D正确．

点评英语记叙文以描写叙述为主，主要描写人物、事件、地点、或过程．特点是，其主题往往潜伏在字里行间，没有直接地表白出来；文章主旨要透过体察所揭示的人物、事件来进行提炼．描写手法大多按时间跨度、空间顺序、上下顺序来展开．阅读记叙文体应采取掠读和扫读的方法，快速抓住文中描写的主要内容，从整体上去把握文章的连贯性，进而大体上揣测出作者的写作意图及情感主线．高考阅读就记叙文设题大多以细节理解为主．

13．When I was fifteen，I announced to my English class that I was going to write and illustrate my own books．Half the students sneered．The rest nearly fell out of their chairs laughing．"Don't be silly，only geniuses can become writers，"the English teacher said，"And you are getting a D this semester．"I was so humiliated（羞辱） that I burst into tears．
That night I wrote a short sad poem about broken dreams and mailed it to the Capri's Weekly newspaper．To my astonishment，they published it and sent me two dollars．I was a published and paid writer．I showed it to my teacher and fellow students．They laughed．"Just plain dumb luck，"the teacher said．I tasted success．I'd sold the first thing I'd ever written．That was more than any of them had done and if it was just dumb luck，that was fine with me．
During the next two years I sold dozens of poems，letters，jokes and recipes．By the time I graduated from high school，with a C minus average，I had scrapbooks filled with my published work．I never mentioned my writing to my teachers，friends or my family again．They were dream killers and if people must choose between their friends and their dreams，they must always choose their dreams．
I had four children at the time，and the oldest was only four．While the children slept，I typed on my ancient typewriter．I wrote what I felt．It took nine months，just like a baby．
A month later Crying Wind，the title of my book，became a best seller，was translated into fifteen languages and Braille and sold worldwide．I appeared on TV talk shows．I traveled from New York to California and Canada on promotional tours．My first book also became required reading in native American schools in Canada．
People ask what college I attended，what degrees I had and what qualifications I have to be a writer．The answer is："None．"I just write．I'm not a genius．I'm not gifted and I don't write right．To all those who dream of writing，I'm shouting at you："Yes，you can．Yes，you can．Don't listen to them．"I don't write right but I've beaten the odds．Writing is easy，it's fun and anyone can do it．Of course，a little dumb luck doesn't hurt．
