Ⅲ.阅读理解
A
We once had a poster competition in our fifth grade art class.
“You could win prizes,” our teacher told us as she wrote the poster information on the blackboard.She passed out sheets of construction paper while continuing,“The first prize is ten dollars.You just have to make sure that the words on the blackboard appear somewhere on your poster.”
We studied the board critically.Some of us looked with one eye and held up certain colors against the blackboard,rocking the sheets to the right or left while we conjured up our designs.Others twisted their hair around their fingers or chewed their erasers while deep in thought.We had plans for that tendollar grand prize,each and every one of us.I'm going to spend mine on candies,one hopeful would announce,while another practiced looking serious,wise and rich.
Everyone in the class made a poster.Some of us used parts of those fancy paper napkins,while others used nothing but colored construction paper.Some of us used big designs,and some of us preferred to gather our art tidily down in one corner of our poster and let the space draw the viewer's attention to it.Some of us would wander past the good students' desks and then return to our own projects with a growing sense of hopelessness.It was yet another grownup trick of the sort they seemed especially fond of,making all of us believe we had a fair chance,and then always—always—rewarding the same old winners.
I believe I drew a sailboat,but I can't say that with any certainty.I made it.I admired it.I determined it to be the very best of all of the posters I had seen,and then I turned it in.
Minutes passed.
No one came along to give me the grand prize,and then someone distracted me,and I probably never would have thought about that poster again.
I was still sitting at my desk,thinking,What poster?when the teacher gave me an envelope with a tendollar bill in it and everyone in the class applauded for me.
语篇解读:文章主要讲述了作者在五年级的艺术课上的一次海报比赛。“我”最后凭着自己的努力,以一个有关帆船的海报而获得一等奖。
26.What was the teacher's requirement for the poster?
A.It must appear in time.
B.It must be done in class.
C.It must be done on a construction sheet.
D.It must include the words on the blackboard.
解析:细节理解题。从文章第二段中的“You just have to make sure that the words on the blackboard appear somewhere on your poster.”可知老师要求黑板上的信息要呈现在设计的海报中。故D项正确。
答案:D
27.The underlined phrase in Paragraph 3 most probably means .
A.formed an idea for B.made an outline for
C.made some space for D.chose some colors for
解析:词义猜测题。该词语前后提到了教室里同学们的表现,他们都在积极地思考问题,构思自己的海报。由此可推知conjure up意为“想象出”,故A项正确。
答案:A
28.After the teacher's words,all the students in the class .
A.looked very serious
B.thought they would be rich
C.began to think about their designs
D.began to play games
解析:细节理解题。从第三段可知教室中的每一个学生都在积极地构思自己的海报,并且文章还详细地描述了他们的一些动作。
答案:C
29.After seeing the good students' designs,some students .
A.loved their own designs more
B.thought they had a fair chance
C.put their own designs in a corner
D.thought they would not win the prize
解析:细节理解题。从第四段中的“Some of us would wander past the good students' desks and then return to our own projects with a growing sense of hopelessness.”可知一些同学在看到好的学生的作品后,对自己的海报更没信心。故D项正确。
答案:D
30.We can infer from the passage that the author .
A.enjoyed grownup tricks very much
B.loved poster competitions very much
C.felt surprised to win the competition
D.became wise and rich after the competition
解析:推理判断题。文章最后一段提到老师将装有十美元的信封放到“我”的桌子上时,同学们都鼓掌,并且之前作者并没有想到自己能够获奖,因此当自己获奖时当然感到很惊讶了。
答案:C
B
When I was a boy,my father told me that he could do anything he wanted to.Dad said that he wanted to be the first to develop color prints in our city,and so he did.
When I was 16,Dad looked closely at the violin I played and announced that he wanted to make one.He read about violin making,and then became a violinmaker at the age of 43.He bought the tools and materials,opened a small store and set Mom up as the shopkeeper,while he worked at a local company.He retired from the company 17 years later and continued to make violins and other instruments.
Dad often guessed why the Stradivarius violins sound so beautiful.Some experts claimed that it was the unique varnish that gave those instruments their beautiful sound.Dad argued that chemists could analyze the varnish—if that were the answer.
One of Dad's friends asked him once which kind of wood was
used to make violins.When Dad explained that the top was
made of spruce,his friend said that he had an old piece
of spruce Dad might be interested in.
He worked for the next 12 months making a violin from the
wood that his friend had given him.It proved to be a
superior violin and it would become Dad's masterpiece.He was convinced that the secret of the Stradivarius sound was in the wood itself.
Later,the instrument was stolen.Dad's spirit was broken by the robbery,and he stopped making instruments.But he kept the music shop until he was 80 years old,selling guitars and violins.
My father has been gone for 14 years now.The violin has been missing for more than 25 years.Somewhere a musician is playing a late20thcentury violin with an excellent tone.The owner today may never understand why this ordinarylooking violin sounds so much like a Stradivarius.
语篇解读:作者追忆了自己父亲的一些往事,父亲曾经说过:“只要你真想做一件事,那么你就能做成那件事。”父亲学会了乐器制作,并制成了一把音色绝美的小提琴,但不幸被盗。
31.The author mentions his father's developing color prints
.
A.to show that his father's real interest was not in making
violins
B.to prove that his father could do anything he wanted to
C.to give an example proving that his father was an inventor
D.to describe the real thing that made the author believe his father
解析:细节理解题。第一段提到了父亲冲印彩色照片的事情,作为一个例子,主要是为了说明父亲能够干任何他想干的事情,即证明第一句的内容“When I was a boy,my father told me that he could do anything he wanted to.”本文主要是关于父亲制作小提琴等乐器的故事,所以A项表达不对。
答案:B
32.What did the author's father think about Stradivarius violins?
A.The varnish was different from the others.
B.The way of making them was special.
C.The wood of the violins was special.
D.They could only be analyzed by chemists.
解析:细节理解题。根据第三段“Some experts claimed that it was the unique varnish that gave those instruments their beautiful sound.Dad argued that...”可知,一些专家认为是由于油漆的特殊性,这些乐器听起来才这么美妙,但是父亲并不同意。第四段当父亲的朋友问用什么样的木料来做小提琴时,“...Dad explained that the top was made of spruce”,即父亲认为最好的小提琴应该是用云杉做的,可知,父亲认为木料的特殊性会使小提琴的声音更加好听。
答案:C
33.From the underlined sentence,we can learn that the author's father .
A.liked the violin very much
B.got crazy after this happened
C.lost interest in instruments
D.didn't want to become famous
解析:句意猜测题。从第五段“He worked for the next 12 months making a violin from the wood that his friend had given him.”可知,耗尽12个月(一年)的时间、精力制作了自己的masterpiece(杰作),结果不久以后却被盗了,所以伤心至极,精神也崩溃了,从此不再制作小提琴了,但这恰恰说明了他对这个小提琴由衷地喜欢。
答案:A
34.How long did the author's father live after the violin was stolen?
A.About 11 years. B.About 14 years.
C.About 25 years. D.About 80 years.
解析:推理判断题。根据最后一段开头可知:父亲去世14年,而小提琴丢失25年,所以可以推断出,在小提琴丢失以后,父亲又活了11年。
答案:A
35.We can infer from the last paragraph that the author .
A.really hates the thief
B.misses his father a lot
C. really wants to play the violin
D.wonders who's playing the violin now
解析:推理判断题。根据最后一段的描述,父亲已经去世14年了,那个小提琴也已经丢失25年了,后面是作者对小提琴现在的情况的猜想,可能持琴人并不明白这把小提琴为什么弹奏起来如此美妙,而作者很清楚:那是因为这把小提琴是父亲亲手用云杉木花费了一年的心血做成的,由此可以看出作者对父亲的深切思念。
答案:B
