課時作業(yè)（五）

I.閱讀理解

【語篇解讀】本文是記敘文。作者的孩子想要選擇一所大的公立學(xué)校讀高中，作者對

此憂心忡忡。但最終，孩子用強(qiáng)有力的理由說服了作者。

1.答案與解析：C推理判斷題。在第三段中作者列舉了諸多事實，向她的孩子說明與

他目前所上的學(xué)校相比，公立學(xué)校有許多不便之處，包括班級人數(shù)眾多、無法得到老師的特

別關(guān)注、上課時間變長、晚上寫作業(yè)等，因此可推斷，作者得知孩子想要上公立學(xué)校時，認(rèn)

為這不是個明智的決定。

2.答案與解析：A推理判斷題。在第三段中作者列舉事實希望打消孩子上公立學(xué)校的

念頭，但由第四段中的"however"和"Hewouldneedtocomeupwithalistofvalid

reasons.M可知，孩子仍然堅持上公立學(xué)校。因此推斷，畫線部分內(nèi)容表示孩子并沒有氣餒,

即他沒有改變主意。

3.答案與解析：B推理判斷題。由倒數(shù)第三段中的"Headdedthathewouldlearn

tomanagehistimeandtakeownershipofhisschoolwork.v可知,他提供的理由之一

是，他將學(xué)會自己管理時間并安排學(xué)業(yè)，即他將會變得更加獨立。

4.答案與解析：B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由最后一段中的"weletoursonhavethefinalsay

onchoosingahighschool."可知，最終，作者決定讓孩子自己選擇高中學(xué)校。

【語篇解讀】本文是一篇記敘文，講述了作者先得到幫助，又向別人伸出援手的一段

溫馨經(jīng)歷。只要人人都獻(xiàn)出一點愛，世界將變成美好的人間！讓我們每個人都為這愛的延續(xù)

盡自己的一份力量吧！

5.答案與解析：D'細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段中的"Afterthereception,wewere

waitingforabustogobackhome.''可知，作者和朋友在等著乘坐公共汽車回家，故選

擇D項。

6.答案與解析：A'推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章倒數(shù)第二段中的“Thedriversawhisclothes

andaskedhimwhetherhehadmoneytopaythefare（車費）.”以及最后一段中的“The

workershookhisheadandsaid,'No.'Onhearingthis,thedriverrefusedtotake

him.”可知，司機(jī)在得知這個工人沒錢付車費時，斷然拒絕了他的乘車請求，因此選擇A項。

7.答案與解"：B'詞義猜測題。文章第一、二段介紹了作者在遇到困難時得到熱心人

幫助的事情，所以畫線詞所在句"Irememberedmyownplightafewminutesearlier”

表示作者想到了自己幾分鐘前遭遇的困境，由此推斷畫線詞詞義為“困難，麻煩”，故選擇B

項。

8.答案與解析：C'主旨大意題。通讀全文，作者介紹了自己先得到幫助，之后又幫助

了別人的經(jīng)歷。最后一句"Maythischainofkindnesscontinue!"點題，故選擇C項。
