When Ben Franklin was only a boy, he always wanted to know about things. He was always asking his father and brothers “What?” and “How?” and “Why?”
They couldn't always tell him what he wanted to know.
When they couldn't tell him, Ben tried to find out for himself.
Many times Ben did find out things that no one knew before. The other boys would say, “That Ben Franklin! He's always finding out something new!”
Ben lived close to the water. He liked to go there to see the boats. He saw how the wind blew them across the water.
One day Ben said to himself, “Why can't the wind help me float(漂浮) across the water? And I'm going to try.” Ben got his big kite. He took hold of the kite string(线) and ran with it. The wind took the kite up into the air. Then Ben jumped into the water.
The wind blew the kite high into the air. Ben began to float across the water. Soon he was on the other side, and he had not worked at all.
One boy shouted, “Look at Ben floating across the water! His kite takes him to the other side without any work!”
“Yes,” said another. “He's always finding new ways to do things.”

1.本题检测考生的归纳概括能力.短文第一自然段叙述了Ben Franklin小时候总是想了解事物的情况.我们再根据该段中叙述的“He was always asking his father and brothers‘What?’ and ‘How?’ and‘Why?’”,就可以归纳概括出Ben在小时候总是喜欢弄清楚事情的来龙去脉. 2.这是一道转换理解题.短文第二自然段“They couldn't always tell him what he wanted to know.”与试题中“His father and brothers couldn't answer all his questions.”只不过是同一意思的不同表达法而已,都是说明Ben Franklin的父亲和兄弟不能回答出他所提出的全部问题. 3.这是一道事实询问题.回答此题需要在短文中找到两处信息.第一次是短文第六自然段中“He took hold of the kite string and ran with it.”第二处是第七自然段中“Ben began to float across the water. Soon he was on the other side.”把这两处信息综合起来考虑,就不难推断出,是飞行的风筝把Ben Franklin带过了水面. 4.本题检测考生的推理判断能力.短文第四自然段中“Many times Ben did find out things that no one knew before.”以及其他孩子对Ben的评价“He's always finding out something new!”其深层含义就是Ben Franklin弄清楚了人们不了解的许多事情. 5.本题是检测考生根据语境猜测词语含义的能力.只有通过对上下文的审视,考生才能够真正把握此话的含义.短文倒数第二自然段其中一个男孩的呼喊声“His kite takes him to the other side without any work!”则清楚地阐释了“and he had not worked at all.”的内在含义:Ben以容易的方式过了河. |
