2.We were standing at the top of a church tower.My father had brought me to this place in a small town not far from our home in Rome.I wondered why.
"Look down,Elsa,"father said.I gathered all my courage and looked down.I saw the square in the center of the village.And I saw the crisscross (十字形) of the twisting,turning streets leading to the square."See,my dear,"father said gently."There is more than one way to the square.Life is like that.If you can't get to the place where you want to go by one road,try another."
Now I understood why I was there.Earlier that day I had begged my mother to do something about the bad lunches that were served at school.But she refused because she could not believe the lunches were as bad as I said.
When I turned to Father for help,he didn't say anything.Instead,he brought me to this high tower to give me a lesson.By the time we reached home,I had a plan.
At school the next day,I secretly poured my lunch soup into a bottle and brought it home.Then I asked our cook to serve it to Mother at dinner. The plan worked perfectly.She swallowed one spoonful and sputtered(噴濺出)"The cook must have gone mad!"Quickly I told her what I had done,and Mother stated firmly that she would take up the matter of lunches at school the next day!
In the years that followed I often remembered the lesson father taught me.I began to work as a fashion designer two years ago.I wouldn't stop working until I tried every possible means to my goal.Father's wise words always remind me that there is more than one way to the square.

分析 通向廣場(chǎng)的路不止一條,如果你想走的一條路不通到你要到的地方,那么就試試試另一條,其實(shí)生活也是如此,那就多嘗試幾次吧.

解答 51.答案 C 根據(jù)第二段 fathersaid gently."Thereis more than one way to the square.Life is like that.If you can't get to the place where you want to go by one road,try another."爸爸輕輕地說(shuō),不只一條路通往廣場(chǎng),人生也是如此,如果你想走的一條路不通到你要到的地方,那么就試試試另一條.由此可知爸爸帶作者來(lái)是啟發(fā)他明白解決事情的方法不只一條,故答案為C
52.答案 D   細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)Earlier that day I hadbegged my mother to do something about the bad lunches that were served atschool.那天早些時(shí)候,我求媽媽對(duì)于學(xué)校做的不好吃的午飯向?qū)W校反映一下,故答案為D
53.答案 D 推理判斷題  The plan worked perfectly,意思的計(jì)劃一切進(jìn)展順利.根據(jù)上下文可知,作者是想讓媽媽親口嘗一嘗學(xué)校的飯菜,結(jié)果媽媽認(rèn)為非常難吃,說(shuō)明作者的方法有效,故答案為D
54.答案 C 推理判斷題  根據(jù)She swallowed one spoonful and sputtered(噴濺出)"The cook must have gonemad!"她嘗了一湯匙然后吐了出來(lái),說(shuō)"廚師一定發(fā)瘋了!"說(shuō)明媽媽也覺(jué)得湯非常難喝,故答案為C
55.答案 A 主旨大意題   根據(jù) I wouldn't stop working until I tried every possible way.Father's wise words always remind me thatthere is more than one way to the square.我直到試過(guò)每一個(gè)可能的方法才停止嘗試.爸爸智慧的話總是提醒我到廣場(chǎng)的路不只一條,可知答案選A

點(diǎn)評(píng) 人生感悟類(lèi)閱讀:這類(lèi)文章所涉及的人生道理和感悟也許平常我們?cè)谧鲞@類(lèi)閱讀題的時(shí)候可能見(jiàn)過(guò),所以注意不要把自己的日常經(jīng)驗(yàn)帶到考試中.
閱讀這類(lèi)題目,要注意閱讀各段的首句和末句,因?yàn)橥褪沁@段的中心句或者是作者的觀點(diǎn)所在.
