8、答案】 閱讀理解 (201*石家莊質(zhì)檢) Once upon a time, two brothers who lived on neighboring farms fell into conflict (沖突). It was the first serious one between them in 40 years of farming peacefully side by side. In the end, they fell apart. One morning, a man with a carpenter's toolbox came for some work. The

9、 elder brother said, “I just have a job for you. Look at the farm across the creek (河溝). My younger brother lives there. It was he who used his bulldozer (推土機) to dig the creek last week to spite (刁難) me. So I want you to build me a fence, an 8­foot­high fence, in order not to see his plac

10、e any more.” The carpenter smiled and said, “I see. I'll try to do a job that satisfies you.” Then the elder brother went downtown. At sunset when the farmer returned, the carpenter had just finished his job. The farmer's eyes opened wide! To his surprise, there was no fence there at all! In

11、stead, there was a bridge stretching from one side of the creek to the other! A fine piece of work! He saw his younger brother coming to him with the hands outstretching. The brothers stood at each end of the bridge, and then they met in the middle, taking each other's hands. They turned to see

12、the carpenter lift his toolbox on his shoulder. “No, wait! Stay a few days. I've a lot of other work for you，” said the elder brother. “I'd love to stay on，” the carpenter said, “but I have so many more bridges to build.”1. What was the life like for the two brothers before the conflict? A.

13、They lived a poor life. B. They lived in peace. C. They never spoke to each other. D. They lived on the same farm.2. It can be learned that the carpenter was _. A. unwilling to obey the farmer B. fond of building bridges C. unable to build a fence D. willing to help others3. The best title for this

14、passage is _. A. A Fine Piece of Work B. A Carpenter C. A Conflict Between Two Brothers D. Two Brothers4. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A. The elder brother used his bulldozer to dig a creek. B. The elder brother helped the carpenter build the bridge. C. The brothers were

15、both satisfied with the carpenter's work. D. The carpenter planned to build an 8­foot­high fence as asked to.答案與解析：這是一篇寓意很深的記敘文：一個聰明又樂于助人的木匠使產(chǎn)生沖突的兄弟倆和好如初，化干戈為玉帛。1B細節(jié)理解題。從文章第一段“It was the first serious one between them in 40 years of farming peacefully side by side.”可以看出，發(fā)生沖突之前他們是和平相處的。

16、2D推理判斷題。從文章對木匠的描述和他干活的情況看，他是一個聰明、樂于助人、技術熟練的木匠。3A主旨概括題。文章主要講述了一位木匠在兩個農(nóng)場之間架了一座橋，這座橋化解了兄弟之間的沖突的故事。因此，無論從具體的橋還是從寓意上的橋來講它都是一件“杰作”。故A項作為標題最合適。4C細節(jié)理解題。由最后一段中兄弟倆的表現(xiàn)尤其是“A fine piece of work！”可知兄弟倆對木匠做的活很滿意，故選C項。其他選項與原文內(nèi)容不符。*結束 (201*重慶調(diào)研) Early one morning the sub­inspector at a station at the other end

17、of the town rang me. An elephant was damaging the town. Would I please come and do something about it? I did not know what I could do, but I got onto a horse and started out. I took my gun, maybe too small to kill an elephant, but I thought the noise might scare him. Various local people stopped me

18、on the way and told me about the elephant's doings. It was not, of course, a wild elephant, but a tame one. It had been chained up but last night it had broken its chain and escaped. Its owner, had set out to run after it, but had taken the wrong direction. He was now twelve hours' journey a

19、way, and in the morning the elephant had suddenly appeared in the town. It had already destroyed somebody's bamboo hut (棚屋), killed a cow and turned over fruit­stalls. I came round the hut and saw a man's dead body sprawling in the mud. He was an Indian, and he could not have been dead

20、many minutes. The people said that the elephant caught him with its trunk, put its foot on his back and grounded him into the earth. This was the rainy season and he was lying on his stomach in the soft mud, the_peacebreaker standing beside, looking innocent. As I lifted my gun, I hesitated a few se

21、conds. Then I fired. That was a shot that did for him. You could see the pain of it knock the last strength from his legs. But in falling he seemed for a moment to rise, his trunk reaching skyward like a tree. He trumpeted, for the first and only time. And then down he came, with a crash that shook

22、the ground.1. Which of the following statements about the author is TRUE? A. He was an Indian. B. He knew elephants well. C. He was not a local villager. D. He was the owner of the elephant.2. The elephant made so much trouble because _. A. its owner treated him cruelly B. it got out of control C. i

23、t hated the village people D. it was a wild elephant3. The underlined words “the peacebreaker” in Paragraph 4 refer to _. A. the elephant B. the dead man C. the author D. the sub­inspector4. It can be inferred that the author felt _ when he shot the elephant. A. excited B. sad C. frightened D.

24、happy答案與解析：1C正誤判斷題。A項錯是因為被大象踩死的那個人是印度人；B項錯是因為作者根本不了解大象；D項錯在作者根本不是大象的主人。從第一段和第二段知，作者是奉命帶上槍去制止那頭搗亂的大象的，應該是警察，故C項正確，即他不是村民。2B推理判斷題。從第三段知那頭馴養(yǎng)的大象跑了出來，造成了不少麻煩。文章中沒有提到A、C項，故只是那頭大象失去了控制。3A指代題。從畫線詞the peacebreaker前后可知，它就是那頭搗亂的大象。4B推理判斷題。從最后一段描述的作者開槍前的猶豫及對大象死前掙扎的描述可知作者是很悲傷的。*結束1、（南京市2011屆高三第一次模擬考試）  Nine

25、teen-year-old Christopher Paolini has always loved adventure books. In fact, he plotted out his first book, Eragon, when he was just fifteen! Eragon is selling more copies than most of the Harry Potter books. A reporter from Who's News talked to this young author about his books and how he ended

26、 up being one of the best-selling authors of all time!     Reporter:_    Christopher Paolini(CP): I love fantasy. I love the sense of awe and wonder that you always get at the end of a great book or movie. Eragon was an attempt to express that. When I was about twelve,

27、I read a book called Jeremy Thatcher, Dragon Hatcher. It's about a young boy who went into a mysterious shop and bought a dragon egg that ended up hatching. It stuck in my head. Eragon was an attempt to see what I could do with the idea myself.    Reporter: Where else do you get y

28、our ideas?    CP: I'm definitely influenced by authors who have a fairly inventive use of language, imaginative worlds and a sense of wonder-authors who write about things that other people don't.    Reporter: What was the hardest thing about writing Eragon?

29、0;   CP: Probably the editing because I wasn't used to it. It was a kind of shock doing it. But also I was having to learn a huge amount about grammar and commas and other things I'd never paid much attention to before. I'd say that editing and writing are pretty much equal in

30、difficulty. My raw writing is a lot more professional now than it ever was before because of everything I learned through the editing process.    Reporter: How do you avoid becoming frustrated with the writing process?    CP: Write about what you enjoy the most or what

31、touches you the most; otherwise you'll never be able to survive a book-length project.    Reporter: Anything else you'd like to share with our readers?    CP: Before I wrote Eragon, I spent an entire month plotting out the entire story so I wasn't writing bl

32、indly. That helps. I really poured my heart and soul into it. It's not just an adventure story: it is about Eragon trying to work out who we are, why we are here and how we can live honorably.（3)What does Paolini find as difficult as writing?APlotting out the story.BGrammar and commas.CThe editi

33、ng process.DThe creative use of language.(4)Which of the following BEST indicates Paolini devoted himself completely to writing Eragon?A"Write about what you enjoy the most or what touches you the most."B"Eragon was an attempt to see what I could do with the idea myself."C"I

34、 spent an entire month plotting out the entire story."D"I really poured my heart and soul into it."【解析】  19歲的 Christopher Paolini 一直喜歡歷險故事，15歲時就構思了他的第一本書 Eragon，該書出版后的銷量超過了大部分 Harry Potter 系列圖書，本文再現(xiàn)了一位記者對 Christopher 的采訪。 (1)B  本題考查推理判斷。根據(jù) Christopher Paolini 對記者第一個問題的回答可知采訪

35、人詢問的問題是“什么激發(fā)他創(chuàng)作了 Eragon 這部作品？”。故選B項。(2)B  本題考查代詞指代。根據(jù)上下文內(nèi)容可知 that 指代的是上句中提到的 the sense of awe and wonder。(3)C  本題考查細節(jié)理解。根據(jù)CP對記者第三個問題的回答 "I'd say that editing and writing are pretty much equal in difficulty" 可知本題的答案是C。 (4)D  本題考查細節(jié)理解。選項A說明的是寫作內(nèi)容，B項說明的是創(chuàng)作作品的目的，C項說明的是寫

36、作之前的構思所花的時間，這三項都不能說明 Paolini 創(chuàng)作時的全身心投入，D項很顯然符合題意。*結束(201*河南五校聯(lián)考)Welcome to Language upon Thames.
