【題目】If Confucius were still alive today and could celebrate his September 28 birthday with a big cake,there would be a lot of candles.He’d need a fan or a strong wind to help him put them out.

While many people in China will remember Confucius on his special day,few people in the United States will give him a passing thought.It’s nothing personal.Most Americans don’t even remember the birthdays of their own national heroes.

But this doesn’t mean that Americans don’t care about Confucius.In many ways he has become a bridge that foreigners must cross if they want to reach a deeper understanding of China.

In the past two decades,the Chinese study programs have gained huge popularity in Western universities.More recently, the Chinese government has set up Confucius Institutes in more than 80 countries.These schools teach both Chinese language and culture.The main courses of Chinese culture usually included Chinese art,history and philosophy.Some social scientists suggest that Westerners should take advantage of the old Chinese wisdom to make up for the drawbacks of Westerners philosophy.Students in the United States,at the same time,are racing to learn Chinese.So they will be ready for life in a world where China is an equal power with the United States.Businessmen who hope to make money in China are reading books about Confucius to understand their Chinese customers.

So the old thinker’s ideas are still alive and well.

Today China attracts the West more than ever, and it will need more teachers to introduce Confucius and Chinese culture to the West.

As for the old thinker,he will not soon be forgotten by people in the West,even if his birthday is.

1The first paragraph is mainly intended to_________.

A. provide some key facts about Confucius

B. show great respect for the old thinker

C. attract the readers’interest in the subject

D. prove the popularity of modern birthday celebrations

2We can learn from Paragraph 4 that American students________.

A. were not interested in Chinese studies before

B. have a great interest in studying Chinese

C. take an active part in Chinese competitions

D. hope to make money in China

3What is the best title for the passage?

A. Old Thinker with a Big Future B. Huge Fans of the Chinese Language

C. Chinese Culture for Westerners D. Forgotten Wisdom in America

【答案】

1C

2B

3A

2細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由Students in the United States,at the same timeare racing to learn Chinese.可知美國(guó)學(xué)生對(duì)學(xué)習(xí)漢語(yǔ)很感興趣,選B。

3主旨大意題So the old thinker’s ideas are still alive and wellToday China attracts the West more than ever, and it will need more teachers to introduce Confucius and Chinese culture to the West.和As for the old thinkerhe will not soon be forgotten by people in the West,even if his birthday is.可知這篇文章主要講了古老的思想家孔子將不會(huì)被人們忘記,即使他的生日,所以這篇文章最好的題目是《古老的思想家和他重要的未來(lái)》,選A。

細(xì)節(jié)理解題是閱讀理解題中最簡(jiǎn)單的一種,多數(shù)屬中低難度的題。但高考所占的比例大,應(yīng)特別引起注意。事實(shí)和細(xì)節(jié)題的命題特點(diǎn)是:對(duì)文章或某一段落中的一些特定細(xì)節(jié)或文章重要事實(shí)的理解,一般包括直接理解題和語(yǔ)義轉(zhuǎn)化題。直接理解題能在原文直接找到答案,而語(yǔ)義轉(zhuǎn)化題則需要將題目信息與原文信息加工或整理后才能得出結(jié)論。

做細(xì)節(jié)理解題具體方法與步驟如下:

1.略讀材料,大概了解原文,掌握中心或主旨;

2.按文章的體裁,作者寫(xiě)作的組織模式及有關(guān)的信息詞。如for example, first, second…等預(yù)測(cè)應(yīng)該到何處尋找自己所需要的事實(shí);

3.將自己精力放在尋找你所需要的細(xì)節(jié)上。快速通篇跳讀,全文掃視,找到細(xì)節(jié)出處,待找到含細(xì)節(jié)句子時(shí),放慢速度,仔細(xì)核對(duì)比較內(nèi)容,直至找到答案。如小題2Students in the United States,at the same time,are racing to learn Chinese.可知美國(guó)學(xué)生對(duì)學(xué)習(xí)漢語(yǔ)很感興趣,選B。

【題目】When I was a little girl, every Sunday my family of six would put on our best clothes and go to Sunday School and then church. The kids in elementary school would all meet together to sing songs, and then divide into groups based on their ages.

One Easter Sunday, all the kids arrived with big stories about what the Easter Bunny (復(fù)活節(jié)小兔) had brought. While all of the kids shared their stories happily, one young boy, called Bobby, sat quietly. A teacher, noticing this, said to him, “And what did the Easter Bunny bring you?” He answered, “My mom locked the door by accident so the Easter Bunny couldn’t get inside because he hadn’t got a key.”

This sounded like a reasonable idea to all of us kids, so we kept on going with the stories. But My mom knew the true story. Bobby’s mom was a single parent, and she guessed they just couldn’t afford the Easter Bunny.

After Sunday School was oven everyone went off to church. When my dad came to meet us, my mom said that we were going home instead. At home, she explained that to make Bobby feel better, we were going to pretend to be the Easter Bunny, make a basket of our candies for him and leave it at church. We all donated (捐贈(zèng)) some to the basket, and went back to church. There, mom hung the basket over the hanger (掛鉤) and attached a note:

Dear Bobby,

I’m sorry I missed your house last night. Happy Easter.

Love

The Easter Bunny
