10.The old man fished alone in a small rowboat and he had gone eighty-four days now without taking a fish.In the first forty days a boy had been with him.But after forty days without a fish the boy's patents had told him that the old man was now bad luck,and ordered the boy to join another boat,which caught three good fish the first week.It made the boy sad to see the old man come in each day with his boat empty and he always went down to help him carry in the fishing lines or take down the old,patched sail.
"Santiago,"the boy said to him as they dragged up the boat to the sand."I could go with you again.I've made some money."the old man had taught the boy to fish and the boy loved him."No,"the old man said."You're with a lucky boat.Stay with them.You must obey your father.""We can be lucky again too.Remember when we didn't catch a fish for 10days,then caught a big one each day for a month?"said the boy."Can I offer you a beer on the balcony and then we'll take the stuff home,"said the boy."Why not?"the old man said.
"Santiago,"the boy said as they sat on the balcony,"If I cannot fish with you,I would like to serve in some way.""You bought me a beer,"the old man said,lifting the bottle to his mouth."Do you remember the first time I took you out to fish?"the old man asked."I was five.I remember the tail of a huge fish slapping against the boat,the noise of you clubbing him and the sweet blood smell.I remember everything from when we first went together,"the boy said.The old man looked at him with his sun-burned,loving eyes.
"May I get some sardines for tomorrow?Let me get four fresh ones,"said the boy."One,"the old man said.His hope and his confidence had never gone.But now they were freshening like a sea breeze."Two,"the boy said."Thank you,"the old man said.He was too simple to wonder when he had attained modesty.But he knew he had attained it and he knew it was not disgraceful and it carried no loss of true pride."Tomorrow is going to be a good day with this wind,"he said."I will row far out before it is light.There will going to be a good day with this wind,"he said."I will row far out before it is light.There will be a big fish?"asked the boy."I think so.And I know many tricks."

分析 本文是一篇記敘文,講述了一個(gè)小男孩與一位老人之間捕魚故事.小男孩本來(lái)跟著老人,但是捕不到魚,所以被家人命令和別人一起.但是老人和小男孩之間感情那個(gè)很好,一直保持著聯(lián)系.老人捕魚的心態(tài)也很好.
解答 28.D 推理判斷題.根據(jù)第一段But after forty days without a fish the boy's patents had told him that the old man was now bad luck,and ordered the boy to join another boat,which caught three good fish the first week可知小男孩被要求換一艘船,而前句中提到他們并沒(méi)有捉到魚,也沒(méi)有掙到錢,故選D.
29.C 推理判斷題.根據(jù)第二段I could go with you again.I've made some money和第三段If I cannot fish with you,I would like to serve in some way可知男孩提到以前的經(jīng)歷很懷念,并且想為老人提供其他方式的服務(wù),故選C.
30.B 推理判斷題.根據(jù)對(duì)全文的理解和分析可知小男孩并為老人拿過(guò)酒,推過(guò)船并拿過(guò)捕魚裝備,但是并沒(méi)有為老人修理船帆,由此可判斷此處只有選項(xiàng)B符合題意,故選B.
31.A推理判斷題.根據(jù)對(duì)全文意思的理解可知老人總是運(yùn)氣很不好捕不到魚,但是他的心態(tài)很好,從來(lái)不會(huì)覺(jué)得很失。炊是積極的去捕魚,故選A.
點(diǎn)評(píng) 在閱讀時(shí)要抓住文章的主題和細(xì)節(jié),分析文章結(jié)構(gòu),根據(jù)上下文內(nèi)在聯(lián)系,挖掘文章的深層含義,對(duì)于暗含在文章中的人物的行為動(dòng)機(jī),事件中的因果關(guān)系及作者未言明的傾向、意圖、態(tài)度、觀點(diǎn)等要進(jìn)行合乎邏輯的判斷、推理、分析,進(jìn)一步增強(qiáng)理解能力,抓住材料實(shí)質(zhì)性的東西.
