Question

【題目】 Recently, several unhappy things happened to Gina. One afternoon she called a friend to talk about them. After hearing her words, the friend invited her to her home for tea and said, “All trouble will disappear after tasting tea.”

Gina couldn't believe her, but she still decided to go for relaxation. At the friend's home, her friend took out a square box and said, “I asked someone to buy the tea from China. It's said that there are five tastes.” Then, her friend opened the box slowly, took out a spoon of tea carefully, put it into a teapot(茶壺)gingerly, and then poured in boiled water softly.

Only one minute later, the friend poured out a cup of tea and asked Gina to taste it. Gina drank it but nearly puked(吐)it out. She shouted, “Is this tea? It tastes like medicine!”

The friend just smiled. She re-poured boiled water into the teapot. After a minute, the friend poured out another cup and asked Gina to try the second one. Gina took a drink and found it was not as terrible as the first one but still bitter(苦的). This time she didn't shout. When Gina drank the fifth cup, a sunny smile shone on her face. She said, “It tastes good! I've never tasted such a wonderful flavor(味道).”

The friend said, “Life is just like this! Only when we taste it patiently can we feel happy.”

Answer 1

【答案】

【1】C

【2】B

【3】D

【4】A

【5】C

【解析】

最近Gina遇到了很多不開心的事情，她把這些事情和自己的一個朋友說了說。她的朋友邀請她去家里喝茶，說喝完茶后，這些麻煩就都會消失了。Gina去了朋友家，朋友給她煮茶并告訴她只有耐心品味生活才會感覺到幸福。

【1】細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文第一段 “Recently, several unhappy things happened to Gina. One afternoon she called a friend to talk about them.”可知，Gina和朋友談的是自己遇到的不開心的事情，也就是trouble“麻煩，煩惱”。故選C。

【2】細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文第二段 “her friend took out a square box and said, “I asked someone to buy the tea from China.”可知，Gina的朋友是讓人從中國買的茶葉。故選B。

【3】詞義猜測題。根據(jù)劃線單詞所在的語境 “Then, her friend opened the box slowly, took out a spoon of tea carefully, put it into a teapot(茶壺)gingerly, and then poured in boiled water softly.”可以看到，Gina的朋友打開盒子、拿出茶匙、往茶壺里放茶葉、倒進開水里，這一系列的動作都使用了slowly, carefully, softly修飾，是“慢慢地、小心地、溫柔地”，因此gingerly與這幾個副詞的意思應(yīng)該是相近的，所以A中的bravely、B中的angrily和C中的impolitely都不符合語境。故選D。

【4】細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文第三段 “Gina drank it but nearly puked(吐)it out. She shouted, “Is this tea? It tastes like medicine!””可知，Gina喝了第一杯茶，感覺像喝藥一樣；再根據(jù)第四段 “Gina took a drink and found it was not as terrible as the first one but still bitter”，Gina喝的第二杯不像第一杯那樣苦了。因此Gina覺得第一杯茶太苦了。故選A。

【5】主旨大意題。這篇短文先是講述了Gina去朋友家里喝茶的故事，通過敘事告訴我們一個道理。因此最后一段是點明文章主旨的句子，根據(jù)最后一段 “The friend said, “Life is just like this! Only when we taste it patiently can we feel happy.”可知，作者想要告訴我們的是：只有當我們耐心品味生活的時候，我們才會感到幸福。故選C。

這是一篇記敘文，但也不全是敘事，通過敘事講述一個道理，有記敘、有議論。文章內(nèi)容不難理解，題型是閱讀理解，考查學生們通過閱讀短文獲取文章主旨以及細節(jié)信息、猜測生詞含義以及進行合理的推測和判斷的能力。這個題目設(shè)置了細節(jié)題、猜詞題和主旨題。細節(jié)題往往較為簡單，答案�？梢灾苯釉谠�文找到，做題時可根據(jù)題干所問，或利用題干中的關(guān)鍵詞，在原文中鎖定相關(guān)信息作答。如第1小題和第2小題，這兩個題目就比較簡單。猜詞題需要學生們結(jié)合上下文語境、利用構(gòu)成法的知識等進行猜測，如第3小題，首先從構(gòu)成法上gingerly應(yīng)該是一個副詞，從它所在的句子里，我們可以發(fā)現(xiàn)其他的一些修飾詞，如slowly, carefully, softly等，這些都是表示“慢地、小心地、溫柔地”等意思，因此gingerly應(yīng)該與它們意思相近，這樣就可以知道答案。
