Question

【題目】 Unnila Chaudhary was already a slave when she was six. She spent almost 12 years working as a slave maid in Kathmandu, the capital of Nepal. She was a so - called Kamalari, one of thousands of girls from Tharu tribe (部落)sold by their parents because of financial problem. About 7 percent of the Nepali population is Tharu. They are generally poor and live from agriculture but oftentimes it is not enough. So over the centuries, a tradition has formed where daughters are sent to the city for money. For parents, this brings in additional income and one less mouth to feed. But the girls lose their childhood cruelly.

Urmila Chaudhary gained her freedom 10 years ago and has been campaigning against the tradition ever since . The Kamalari was actually banned by law in 2013 but it continues . She has even founded an organization that helps to free slaves and give them a second chance in life.

After getting her freedom back, she wanted more. She wanted a life, the life that she had always dreamed of even though she was realistic enough to know that her chances were limited. She had never gone to school but wanted to become a lawyer. So she started going to classes with much younger children but was not bothered by the surprised glances and surprising questions. At the same time, she set up her own organization to free girls from slavery ."What she has achieved is remarkable,says Irene Jung. The organizations have freed 13,000 girls in the past few years. uUrmila has huge sympathy. You can see it every time she talks to girls whom she freed," says Jung admiringly. She makes what seems impossible possible. She has learnt how to read and write. She speaks English and has received her high-school diploma.

【解析】

這是一篇說明文。文章說明了Unnila Chaudhary從六歲成為奴隸到18歲獲得自由，成立組織來幫助其他女孩擺脫奴隸制。從沒有受過教育到學(xué)會了讀寫并取得高中文憑的故事。

【1】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段第一、二句Unnila Chaudhary was already a slave when she was six. She spent almost 12 years working as a slave maid in Kathmandu, the capital of Nepal.（Unnila Chaudhary六歲時(shí)就已經(jīng)是一名奴隸了。她在尼泊爾首都加德滿都做了將近12年的女傭。）可知Unnila Chaudhary恢復(fù)自由的時(shí)候是6+12=18歲。故選C。

【2】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段最后一句She has even founded an organization that helps to free slaves and give them a second chance in life.（她甚至建立了一個(gè)組織，幫助解放奴隸，給他們第二次生命的機(jī)會。）可知Urmila Chaudhary通過建立一個(gè)組織幫助其他女孩擺脫奴隸制。故選D。

【3】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段第二、三句She wanted a life, the life that she had always dreamed of even though she was realistic enough to know that her chances were limited. She had never gone to school but wanted to become a lawyer.（她想要一種生活，一種她一直夢想的生活，盡管她很現(xiàn)實(shí)，知道自己的機(jī)會是有限的。她從未上過學(xué)，但想成為一名律師。）可知Urmila Chaudhary意識到她的機(jī)會是有限的，因?yàn)樗龓缀鯖]有受過教育。故選C。

【4】推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段第一句Urmila Chaudhary gained her freedom 10 years ago and has been campaigning against the tradition ever since.（Urmila Chaudhary在10年前獲得了自由，從那時(shí)起她就一直在反對這一傳統(tǒng)。）可知Urmila Chaudhary敢于反抗傳統(tǒng)，是非常勇敢的；根據(jù)第二段最后一句She has even founded an organization that helps to free slaves and give them a second chance in life.（她甚至建立了一個(gè)組織，幫助解放奴隸，給他們第二次生命的機(jī)會。）可知Urmila Chaudhary設(shè)立組織來幫助他人，說明她非常樂于助人；根據(jù)文章最后一段最后一句She has learnt how to read and write. She speaks English and has received her high-school diploma.（她已經(jīng)學(xué)會了讀和寫。她會說英語，并已獲得高中文憑。）可知Urmila Chaudhary從幾乎沒有受過教育，到學(xué)會讀寫并取得高中文憑可見她非常有決心、意志堅(jiān)強(qiáng)。故綜上，選B。

根據(jù)事物的定義或者對事物總體的概括，從而判斷出哪些具體事物或者具體的實(shí)踐應(yīng)該屬于定義的范圍或者是概括的范圍是我們經(jīng)常見到的推理判斷題的題型。要解決這樣的判斷題，首先要講對事物的定義或者對事物的總體概括要讀清楚，然后根據(jù)對比4個(gè)選項(xiàng)，哪個(gè)選項(xiàng)在定義或者概括范圍內(nèi)的。哪個(gè)就是正確的答案。如第四小題，根據(jù)第二段第一句Urmila Chaudhary gained her freedom 10 years ago and has been campaigning against the tradition ever since.（Urmila Chaudhary在10年前獲得了自由，從那時(shí)起她就一直在反對這一傳統(tǒng)。）可知Urmila Chaudhary敢于反抗傳統(tǒng)，是非常勇敢的；根據(jù)第二段最后一句She has even founded an organization that helps to free slaves and give them a second chance in life.（她甚至建立了一個(gè)組織，幫助解放奴隸，給他們第二次生命的機(jī)會。）可知Urmila Chaudhary設(shè)立組織來幫助他人，說明她非常樂于助人；根據(jù)文章最后一段最后一句She has learnt how to read and write. She speaks English and has received her high-school diploma.（她已經(jīng)學(xué)會了讀和寫。她會說英語，并已獲得高中文憑。）可知Urmila Chaudhary從幾乎沒有受過教育，到學(xué)會讀寫并取得高中文憑可見她非常有決心、意志堅(jiān)強(qiáng)。故綜上，選B。
