Question

12．When I was a kid in Minnesota，watermelon was expensive．One of my father's friends，Bernie，was a rich businessman，who owned a large store in St．Paul．
Every summer，when the first watermelons arrived，Bernie would call．Dad and I would go to Bernie's place．We would sit on the edge of the dock（碼頭），feet dangling（搖晃），and got ready for a big meal．
Bernie would take his knife，cut our first watermelon，hand us both a big piece and sit down next to us．Then we'd bury our faces in watermelon，eating only the heart-the reddest，juiciest，firmest，sweetest，most seed-free part-and throw away the rest．
Bernie was my father's idea of a rich man．I always thought it was because he was such a successful businessman．Years later，I realized that it was not Bernie's wealth itself but his way of dealing with it that my father liked．Bernie knew how to stop working，get together with friends and eat only the heart of the watermelon．
What I learned from Bernie is that being rich is a state of mind．Some of us，no matter how much money we have，will never be free enough to eat only the heart of the watermelon．If you don't take the time to dangle your feet over the dock and enjoy life's small pleasure，your work is probably hurting your life．
For many years，I forgot that lesson I'd learned as a kid on the loading dock．I was too busy making all the money I could．
Well，I've relearned it．I hope I have time left to enjoy the success of others and to take pleasure in the day．That's the heart of the watermelon．I have learned again to throw the rest away．

Answer 1

分析 全文主要講述 Bernie 是一個富有的人，但同時他也懂得和朋友一起享受生活，而不是只顧埋頭工作．由此可知作者也體會到人要學會享受生活中的快樂，平衡工作與生活才是最大的財富．

解答 66：A   推斷題．根據(jù)第二段第三句 We'd sit on the edge of the dock，feet dangling，and got ready for a big meal 可知，"我們"坐在碼頭的邊緣，晃著腳，準備享受一頓大餐．由此推知，作者和他的爸爸是很悠閑的，心情放松．relaxed 意為"放松的"，符合題意．worried 意為"擔心的"，hungry 意為"饑餓的"，proud 意為"自豪的"，均不符合題意．故正確答案為A．
67：B  推斷題．根據(jù)第三段第二句 Then we'd bury our faces in watermelon，eating only the heart-the reddest，juiciest，firmest，sweetest，most seed-free part-and throw away the rest 可知，作者和爸爸只吃西瓜中心最紅、最多汁、最甜、籽最少的部分，其他的部分就丟掉了．由此推斷他們吃的是西瓜中間最好的部分．故B項符合題意．A項意為"他們用一種有禮貌的方式吃"，C項意為"他們把西瓜所有部分都吃了"，D項意為"他們倆只分享了一塊西瓜"，均不符合題意．故正確答案為B．
68：C 推斷題．根據(jù)第四段第一句 Bernie was my father's ideal of a rich man 和該段最后一句 Bernie knew how to stop working，get together with friends and eat only the heart of the watermelon 可知，Bernie 是我爸爸眼中富人的理想代表，他知道如何停下工作去和朋友聚在一起，并且只吃西瓜中心最好吃的部分．由此推斷 Bernie 是個有錢人，且他的生活很有質(zhì)量，很健康．故C項符合題意．A項意為"僅僅只是個有錢的商人"，B項意為"一直都很努力工作"，D項意為"知道如何賺錢"，均不符合題意．故正確答案為C．
69：D 猜測詞句題．根據(jù)最后一段第二句 I hope I have time left to enjoy the success of others and to take pleasure in the day 可知，作者希望能騰出時間享受他人的成功，在生活中過得開心幸福．緊接著說，這就是"the heart of the watermelon"，由此猜測指代的是前文這句話的意思．D項意為"作者享受生活的希望"，符合題意．
A項意為"西瓜中最好的部分"，這不是指代，就是解釋了劃線詞的意思；B項意為"作者忙碌的生活"，正是因為忙碌，所以才要享受生活，并非是劃線詞指代的意思；C項意為"作者想要賺錢的決定"，文中未提及．均不符合題意．故正確答案為D．
70：D 主旨大意題．全文主要講述 Bernie 是一個富有的人，但同時他也懂得和朋友一起享受生活，而不是只顧埋頭工作．由此可知作者也體會到人要學會享受生活中的快樂，平衡工作與生活才是最大的財富．故D項符合主旨．A項意為"人必須要通過努力來實現(xiàn)自己的目標"，文中未提及要努力實現(xiàn)目標；B項意為"患難見真情"，文中未提及朋友患難；C項意為"西瓜是最健康的水果"，文章借西瓜作比喻．均不符合主旨．故正確答案為D．

點評 做閱讀時經(jīng)常犯錯的主要原因是，僅憑讀過文章后殘留在腦海中的一絲印象來勾選答案，這樣便很容易掉入出題人故意設布下的題目陷阱．所謂閱讀理解，對于題目的理解一定要忠實于原文，因此，每一道題都應該與原文作全面的對比與核查，再得出答案．也就是說，閱讀理解的每一道題目，在原文都應該有明確的出處，我們把這一出處叫做原文相關句，（1）排除與原文相關句主題不一致的選項（2）排除與原文相關句態(tài)度相反的選項  （3）排除用于過于極端或負面的選項（4）注意結合文章主旨和主題去排除．
