题型:不详难度:来源:
It was Thanksgiving and I was volunteering with my parents at a shelter for the needy. We served hot food to whoever came in. Most of our dinners looked like they had been having hard times; their clothes were worn out and dirty. Then, a man came in, who looked anything but needy. He was well dressed. I wondered what he was doing there and my jaw (下巴) dropped in amazement when he joined the line for food. The closer he came to my service station , the more I muttered (小声抱怨). What was this man doing? Surely he wasn’t going to take food which was meant for those who were really in need!
Then my mother quietly took me to one side. She said, “You have thought that the needs of the people who come here must be purely physical, hunger, etc. And this gentleman doesn’t seem to have any of those problems. But what if his needs are emotional(情感的)? What if he needs comfort, friends, or just to be among other human beings? Her words hit me like a ton of bricks! I felt like I should apologize to the man--- but I didn’t.
About a week later the shelter received a large donation from an anonymous source. I can’t help but wonder if it came from that man.
Now, whenever I meet someone I remember my mother’s lesson and try to send kindness their way, no matter how they look. Needs aren’t always seen. But kindness always makes a difference.
小题1:How did the author feel as the well-dressed man joined the line for food?
A.Surprised | B.Excited | C.Nervous | D.Hopeless |
A.shouldn’t judge a man by his appearance. |
B.shouldn’t complain about others |
C.should give others what they want. |
D.should accept everything we meet |
A.Important | B.Unknown | C.Independent | D.Excellent |
A.seeing is believing |
B.it’s difficult to be kind to others |
C.some rich people pretend to be poor. |
D.we should help people in the way they need. |
A.My mother’s influence on my growth |
B.The importance of volunteering |
C.One of my most shameful experiences |
D.My mother’s simple lesson in kindness |

解析
试题分析:
小题1:A 推理题。根据第二段4,5行I wondered what he was doing there and my jaw (下巴) dropped in amazement when he joined the line for food.说明当他加入队伍的时候,我非常惊讶。故A正确。
小题2:A 推理题。根据文章最后一段no matter how they look. Needs aren’t always seen.说明我们不能以貌取人,故A正确。
小题3:B 推理题。根据本句received a large donation from an anonymous source. I can’t help but wonder if it came from that man.根据后半句我忍不住想这笔钱是来自那个人,故这笔捐款是匿名的。故该词指unknown.故B正确。
小题4:D 推理题。根据妈妈对我所说的话:You have thought that the needs of the people who come here must be purely physical, hunger, etc. And this gentleman doesn’t seem to have any of those problems. But what if his needs are emotional(情感的)? What if he needs comfort, friends, or just to be among other human beings?说明我们不能按照外貌来判断一个人是否需要帮助。我们要按照对方需要帮助的方式来提供帮助,故D正确。
小题5:主旨大意题。文章讲述了在帮助别人的时候妈妈给我上的一课:不要外貌来决定是否提供帮助,而要根据对方的需要。
点评:文章讲述了在帮助别人的时候妈妈给我上的一课:不要外貌来决定是否提供帮助,而要根据对方的需要。本文难度较小,从选项中可以看出,本大题主要还是考查了上下文的推理能力,但更加注重综合语言能力的运用,需要根据故事情节,体会细节情感。

One of us was always in Ollie’s hospital room—either me, or our grown children, Bruce and Karen. One day, in his broken and weak speech, Ollie told Bruce, “Go home. You should be with Gwen.” Gwen was Bruce’s wife. They had been married for six years and lived hundreds of miles away. Gwen was about to have a baby. We felt an extra sadness, knowing Ollie would never see his first grandchild.
“I don’t want to leave you, Dad,” Bruce said. Ollie repeated, “You should be with Gwen.” Reluctantly, Bruce left. “When the baby comes,” he promised Ollie, “you will be the first to know.” A few days later, around 2 p.m., Ollie awoke from a sleep. He turned and looked at me. I sat close to hear his weak words. “The baby is coming now. It’s a boy,” he said. For a moment his eyes were filled with tears. Then he went back to sleep again. Not long after that, Karen ran into the room. “Bruce called,” she said, a smile lighting her face. “Gwen gave birth to a healthy baby boy around two o’ clock.”
Ollie smiled; he had been the first to know. That night, Ollie died in his sleep.

Mario 33 the bet without hesitation. However, he wasn’t sure how to test 34 his schoolmates were real friends or not, so he asked his grandfather. The old man answered, “Wait a minute.” Then the old man left, 35 soon as though carrying something in his hands, but Mario could see 36 there.
“Take it. It’s a very special chair because it’s invisible (看不见). It’s rather 37 to sit on it, but if you take it to school and 38 to sit on it, you’ll activate (激活)its magic and you’ll be able to 39 who your real friends are. ”
Mario, brave and determined, took the 40 and set off for school. At break time he asked everyone to form a(n) 41 , and he put himself in the middle, with his chair. Having difficulty seeing it, Mario tried to sit on it and 42 straight onto his backside. Everyone around him had a pretty good laugh.
“Wait!Let me try again,” Mario said. But again, he missed the seat, 43 more surprised looks and a few catcalls (尖叫,喝倒彩). Mario didn’t 44 and kept trying to sit on the magic chair. But he kept falling onto the ground…until, 45 he tried again but didn’t fall. Looking around, Mario saw three of his best friends 46 him up. Meanwhile, many others he had 47 as friends had done nothing but make 48 of him.
And there, the show 49 to an end. Mario understood that true friends were those who 50 for him, and not just the companions that happened to be passing by. And someone who took joy in his misfortunes (不幸) was even less of a friend.

Many obese(overweight)people also mistakenly believe that changing our bodies will fix everything. Perhaps our worst mistake is believing that being thin means being loved, being special, and being cherished. We imagine what it will be like when we reach the long-awaited goal. We work very hard to realize this dream. Then, at last, we find ourselves there.
But we often gain back what we have lost. Even so, we continue to believe that next time it will be different. Next time, we will keep it off. Next time, being thin will finally realize its promise of happiness, and of course, love.
It took me a long while to know that there was something more for me to learn about beauty. Beauty standards are different with culture. In Somoa a woman is not considered attractive unless she weighs more than 200 pounds. More importantly, if it’s happiness that we want, why not put our energy there rather than on the size of our body? Why not look inside? Many of us try hard to change our body, but with no result. We have to find a way to live comfortably inside our body and make friends with and cherish ourselves. When we change our attitudes toward ourselves, the whole world changes.
小题1:The passage tries to tell us the importance of ______.
A.body size |
B.attitudes toward life |
C.culture difference |
D.different beauty standards |
A.All the problems. | B.All the bodies. |
C.The whole world. | D.The truth. |
A.The author is a Samoan. |
B.The author succeeded in losing weight. |
C.The author has been troubled by her/his weight. |
D.The author probably got wounded in wars or accidents. |
A.They feel angry about the regained weight. |
B.They don’t care about the regained weight. |
C.They feel optimistic(乐观的)about future plans on weight control. |
D.They think they should give up their future plans on weight control. |
In an instant, I realized what I had done.I judged another person simply for what I assumed she had to be.I hated what I saw in myself.This incident re-awakened my belief in humility(谦恭), even though I’d lost it for a moment.
The thing I had forgotten about myself is that I am an immigrant.I left Honduras and arrived in the U.S.at the age of 15.I started my new life with two suitcases, my brother and sister, and a strong, serious-minded mother.Through the years, I have been a dishwasher, mechanic and pizza delivery driver among many other humble jobs, and eventually I became a network engineer.
In my own life, I have experienced many open acts of prejudice (偏见).I remember a time, at age 17 —— I worked as a waiter, and I heard a father tell his little boy that if he did not do well in school, he would end up like me.I have also witnessed the same treatment of my family and friends, so I know what it’s like, and I should have known better.
But now, living in my American middle-class lifestyle, it is too easy to forget my past, to forget who I am and where I have been, and to lose sight of where I want to be going.That blind woman on the streets of Washington, D.C., cured me of my blindness.She reminded me of my belief in humility and to always keep my eyes and heart open.By the way, I helped that lady to the post office.And in writing this essay, I hope to thank her for the priceless lesson.
小题1:We can learn from the first two paragraphs that _______.
A.the author regretted his act of prejudice |
B.the blind woman needed the money badly |
C.the author was as poor as the blind woman |
D.the author was a native American |
A.rather hurt | B.very excited |
C.deeply moved | D.greatly inspired |
A.be nice to the elderly and the disabled |
B.try to experience different kinds of life |
C.treat others equally with love and respect |
D.think about one’s past as often as possible |
A.Learn from your past |
B.How my dream comes true |
C.A Belief that will never change |
D.A priceless lesson in the street |
made him a depressed man, often complaining that others had been playing tricks on him. One day he told his wife he was so 16 with the city that he had to leave.
So his family moved to 17 city. It was in the evening of aweekend when Tom and his wife were busy 18 up their new home
19 the light suddenly went out. So they had to 20 work. Tom was regretful to have forgotten bringing along candles and had to wait 21 in a low mood. Just then he heard slight, hesitant knocks on his door that sounded clear in the 22 night.
“Who’s it?” he wondered, since Tom had no 23 in the new city.
And this was the moment he especially disliked being disturbed. 24 , he went reluctantly to the door and opened it impatiently. At the door was a little girl, shyly asking, “Sir, do you have 25 ? I’m your neighbor.” “No,” answered Tom in anger and shut the door violently. “What a nuisance!” he complained over it with his wife. “No sooner had we settled down 26 the neighbor came to 27 things.” After a while, the door was knocked 28 . He opened it and found the same girl outside. But this time she was holding two candles, saying, “My grandma told me the new neighbor downstairs might need candles. She 29 me here to give you these.” Tom was very 30 by what he saw. When he became fully aware, he said, “Thank you and your 31 . God bless you!”
At that moment he suddenly realized what caused his 32 in life. It
was his 33 and harshness(刻薄)with other people. The person who had cheated him in life was 34 nobody else but himself, for he had fallen for his unsympathetic 35 .
