题文

I didn’t think I had a passion(激情). I would sit in front of the TV all day, thinking about nothing but the next show. It was not long ago that I first learned how important having a passion is to life. That day I went with my mum to drive my sister to the gym. I was bored. Then, as my mum stopped at a red light, someone on the side of the road caught my eye（吸引我的世界）. It was a man dressed in rags (衣衫褴褛). He was homeless. That didn’t interest me, for I had seen many like him before. But in some ways he was different. This man was not sitting down with a sad expression(表情). He had a radio in his hand and was dancing happily to the music. The radio seemed to be the most precious(珍贵)thing he had. “Mum, why does that man have a radio even thought（尽管） he’s homeless?” I asked. “He bought it,” she replied. I was still unable to understand. “But if he’s homeless, why doesn’t he use the money to buy food or clothes? He wasted it on something he doesn’t need.” “Well, Sarah, sometimes food and clothes aren’t the most important things. We need happiness, too.” The man must care too much about music to buy a radio instead of food clothes. I soon realized（意识到）that happiness is the key to life. Without it, there’s nothing to look forward to. Since then I’ve never gone a day without thinking of what’s truly important. A home, a meal, clothes—these things are only part of the picture. What’s often forgotten is that we all need a pleasure, a light in a dark day. We all need a passion. 小题1:How would Sarah spend her days long ago? A．She watched TV all day. B．She used to read a lot. C．She did nothing but thinking. D．She was always sleeping. 小题2:Who caught Sarah’s eye when her mum stopped the car at a red light? A．A man dressed in rags. B．A man dressed in new clothes. C．A man sitting down with a sad expression. D．A man singing happily to the music. 小题3: Why was the man different? A．He wore new clothes. B．He was sitting with a sad expression. C．He was homeless. D．He lived an active life though he was very poor. 小题4:What did Sarah do after she understood the fact? A．She thought all day without doing anything. B．She bought a radio just like the man’s. C．She had a passion with everything from then on. D．She always danced to the music on the radio. 小题5: What can we learn from the passage? A．Sometimes food and clothes are the most important things in our life. B．Happiness is the key to life and it is what we are looking forward to. C．Music is more important than food or clothes. D．Money is the most important thing for a person.

答案

小题1:A 小题1:A 小题1:D 小题1:C 小题1:B

1.A 细节考查题,从I would sit in front of the TV all day, thinking about nothing看出作者以前常常坐在电视前看一天的电视而不考虑任何事情，故选A。 2. A 此处也是细节题的解答。从文章的第二段someone on the side of the road caught my eye（吸引我的世界）以及下面的解释：It was a man dressed in rags 可知A答案正确。 3. D 此题可以从第三段得出答案。首句说But in some ways he was different. （他在某些方面与众不同），然后到下面的This man was not sitting down with a sad expression(表情). He had a radio in his hand and was dancing happily to the music可知他很乐观很开心，这就是他的不同之处，故选D。 4. C 此题是一个推理题。作者从这个人身上感受到的就是对生活一定要有激情，生活才能拥有幸福感。从I soon realized（意识到）that happiness is the key to life可知答案选C。 5. B 细节考查题。从I soon realized（意识到）that happiness is the key to life. Without it, there’s nothing to look forward to可知答案。此题是文章全文的主旨所有，告诉我们活着幸福才是生活的关键。

据专家权威分析，试题“I didn’t think I had a passion(激情). I would sit in front..”主要考查你对  人物传记类阅读，故事类阅读  等考点的理解。关于这些考点的“档案”如下：

人物传记类阅读故事类阅读

考点名称：人物传记类阅读

• 人物传记类阅读：
  本类型选材主要是名人轶事。
  人物传记的叙述线索也常常以时间为序。内容一般不是一个人的生活流水账，而是选取主人公一些重要的人生阶段或生活片段来展开叙述。
  阅读时要把握主人公在此阶段发生的事对他本身或他人有什么重要的意义和影响。

考点名称：故事类阅读

• 故事类阅读：
  文章一般描述的是某一件具体事情的发生发展或结局，有人物、时间、地点和事件。
  命题往往从故事的情节、人物或事件的之间的关系、作者的态度及意图、故事前因和后果的推测等方面着手，考查学生对细节的辨认能力以及推理判断能力。
  阅读这类材料时，同学们一定要根据主要情节掌握文章主旨大意，同时抓住每一个细节，设身处地根据文章内容揣摩作者的态度和意图，根据情节展开想象，即使是碰到深层理解题也可迎刃而解。

• 故事类阅读注意：
  初中生接触到的阅读材料大都是故事类。
  阅读故事类的材料，应该抓住人物线索、地点线索、时间线索和情节发展线索。
  
  特别注意的是，以上线索往往是并存的。因为情节的发展总是涉及到人物的变化、时间的推移、场景的变换等。
  而阅读材料后的阅读理解往往会围绕这些内容设计一些事实类的理解题。
  
  凡事实类的理解题都可以从阅读材料的表层文字中找到答案。
  
  在阅读故事类短文时，应理解文章的深层含义，也就是它的主题。在此需要注意的是，现在的阅读理解题在测试事实类的理解题的同时，往往有一道推理类理解测试题．
