Once upon a time all feelings went to an island for a vacation, and each was having a good time. Suddenly, a warning of a strong storm was announced ,so all rushed to their boats. Yet, Love did not wish to run away quickly. There was so much to do. But as the clouds darkened, Love realized it was time to leave. But there were no boats to spare. Love looked around with hope.
Just then Richness was passing by Love in a grand boat. Love shouted, "Richness, can you take me with you?" Richness answered, "No, I can"t. There is a lot of gold and silver in my boat. There is no place here for you."
Love decided to ask Vanity(虚荣) who was also passing by in a beautiful boat for help, But Vanity said with a cold voice, “No, I can’t take you with me. My boat will get dirty with your mummy feet.”
Sorrow passed by after some time. Again, Love asked for help. But it was useless. “No, I can’t take you with me. I am so sad. I want to be by myself.”
When Happiness passed by a few minutes later, Love again called for help. But Happiness was so happy that it hardly concerned about anyone else.
Love was growing restless and hopeless. Just then somebody called out, “Come, Love, I will take you with me.” Love did not know who was being so kind, but jumped onto the boat happily.
After getting off the boat, Love met Knowledge. Love asked, “Knowledge, do you know who was so kind to give me a lift when no one else wished to help?”
Knowledge smiled, "Oh, that was Time,"
"Time?" asked Love. "But why did Time help me?" Knowledge smiled with deep wisdom and answered, "Because only Time is capable of understanding how valuable Love is."

试题分析:本文叙述了爱的绝望的故事。所有的情感都去一个小岛度假,当暴风雨要来了,大家都赶忙离开,但是财富,虚荣心,悲伤,幸福这些情感没有一个人愿意和爱分享一艘船。爱快要绝望了,这是时间好心爱接回来。知识告诉爱,只有时间才能知道爱是多么有价值。这个故事告诉我们,只有经过一段时间,我们才会理解到爱的重要性。
小题1:推理判断题。根据After getting off the boat, Love met Knowledge. 可知爱从小岛上回来遇见了知识,故推断知识没有去岛上度假。故选D。
小题2:词义猜测题。根据Sorrow passed by after some time. Again, Love asked for help. But it was useless. “No, I can’t take you with me. I am so sad.可知sorrow的意思和sad的意思相近,都表示悲伤的。故选C。
小题3:推理判断题。根据Just then Richness was passing by Love in a grand boat,.Love decided to ask Vanity(虚荣) who was also passing by,Sorrow passed by after some time, When Happiness passed by a few minutes later, Knowledge smiled, "Oh, that was Time," 可知坐船从爱身边经过的情感依次为Richness→Vanity→Sorrow→Happiness→Time 。故选A。
小题4:推理判断题。根据Because only Time is capable of understanding how valuable Love is.可知只有时间能够理解爱是多么有价值,也就是说经过一段时间后人们会认识到爱的重要性。故选C。
小题5:标题归纳题。根据Love was growing restless and hopeless.可知爱一次次的求助助于别人,结果都没有人帮助她,因此她绝望了。故选C。
核心考点
试题【Once upon a time all feelings went to an island for a vacation, and each was hav】;主要考察你对人生百味类等知识点的理解。[详细]
举一反三
How can we improve our life? Many people think that they have to accept whatever life throws at them. They’ll say, “this is my destiny (命运). I cannot change it.”
Certainly not! You don’t have to suffer too much. Your destiny depends on yourself, not on any other factors.
I know someone who says she just accepts what life gives her because she has done everything she can to improve it. Guess what her lifestyle is? She wakes up in the morning, goes to work, comes back home, relaxes, chats with people, watches TV, then goes to sleep. Next day, the same routine cycle follows. Huh! Is this what she calls “doing her best”? She believes she has tried her best. But in fact she hasn’t.
Remember that you get what you pay. You just don’t sit around and wait for a million dollars to fall from the sky. You have to get off the couch, get your eyes off the TV screen, get your hands off the phone. Don’t expect your luck to change unless you do something about it. If something goes wrong, don’t just regard it as a little failure, but use it as feedback (反馈). Learn your lesson, make the most of the situation, and do something to solve the problem. It’s not enough to think positively (积极地), you also have to act positively.
If someone’s life is in the trouble, do you just hope that things will turn out fine? Of course not! You get to do anything you can to save the person. So it is with your own life. It is not enough to hope for the best, but you have to do your best. In other words, don’t just stand (or sit) there, do something to improve your life.

A.we can change itB.we can’t depend on ourselves
C.we must accept itD.we have to suffer it
小题2:According to the passage, what should you do if something goes wrong?
A.Regard it as a little failure.B.Get your hands off your phone.

小题3:The underlined word “turn out” in the passage means ________.
A.翻转B.关闭
C.变得D.清空
小题4:From the passage, we know ________.
A.we only need to hope for the best in our life.
B.we can get what we pay if we think positively.
C.the woman has tried her best to improve her life.

Twenty years ago, I drove a taxi for a living. One night I went to pick up a passenger at 2:30 AM. When I arrived there, I walked to the door and knocked, “Just a minute,” answered a weak, elderly voice.
After a long pause, the door opened. A small woman in her eighties stood before me. By her side was a small suitcase.
When we got into the taxi, she gave me an address, and then asked, “Could you drive through downtown?”
“It’s not the shortest way,” I answered quickly.
“Oh, I’m in no hurry,” she said. “I’m on my way to a hospice(临终医院). I don’t have any family left. The doctor says I don’t have very long.”
I quietly reached over and shut off the meter(计价器).
For the next two hours, we drove through the city. She showed me the building where she had once worked, the neighborhood where she had lived, and the furniture shop that had once been a ballroom where she had gone dancing as a girl.
Sometimes she’d ask me to slow down in front of a special building and would sit staring into the darkness, saying nothing.
In the early morning, she suddenly said,” I’m tired. Let’s go now.”
We drove in silence to the address she had given me.
“How much do I pay you?” she asked.
“Nothing.” I said.
“You have to make a living,” she answered. “Oh, there are other passengers,” I answered.
Almost without thinking, I gave her a hug(拥抱). She held on me and said, “You gave an old woman a little moment of joy.”
小题1:The old woman chose to ride through the city in order to ______.
A.show she was familiar with the city
B.see some places for the last time
C.let the driver earn more money
D.reach the destination on time
小题2:The taxi driver did not get the money because he ______.
A.wanted to give her a hand
B.shut off the meter by mistake
C.had received her payment already
D.was in a hurry to take other passengers
小题3:What can we learn from the story?
A.No pains, no gains.
B.People should respect(尊重) each other.
C.An act of kindness can bring people great joy.
D.People should learn to enjoy our life.

A famous study was done in a school by a professor from a university. At the start of the school year, the teachers were given the names of five children. They were told that these five were the most excellent students in the class. But the fact was that these students were only average,and they were not the best students at all. Well, guess what? At the end of the year, all the five average students scored among the highest in the class.
 What made these average students change so much to become top students?The only difference was the change in their teachers’ attitude. Because the teachers believed that these five kids were the top students,they expected more from them. And so these five average students began to believe and expect more from themselves. So they worked harder to do as well as they could.
 Do you know why? If you expect the best from people, they’ll usually want to give you their best. A great leader said, “Treat a person just how he appears to be on the outside, and you’ll make him even worse. But treat a person like he’s already a success,and you’ll help make him the best he can be.”
 Like the true story of 7-year-old Johnny, his teacher got so angry with him that one day she said,“Johnny,you’re the naughtiest boy in this class. I’m sure you’ll never change.” The next year Johnny had a new teacher. And on the first day of class,she met with Johnny after school and said,“Johnny, I’ve heard a lot about you! But do you know that I don’t believe a word of it.” And every day after that, this new teacher treated Johnny as if he was one of the smartest students even when Johnny did naughty things. Later on, Johnny became a school leader. Because that’s the power of our belief and attitude toward children.
小题1:The professor started his research by _______.
A.teaching the five children himself
B.asking the five children to find a new teacher
C.telling the five students to work harder than ever before
D.telling the teacher the five students were the best in the class
小题2:The five average students became top students mainly because of ________.
A.the professor’s study B.the teachers’hard work
C.the change in the teachersD.the change in the teachers’ attitude
小题3:What does the passage mainly tell us?
A.Attitude and belief can change a person.
B.Only teachers can make you a top student.
C.A professor’s study can help you score highest.
D.If you want to get more,you should have new teachers.
