18.Each morning Grandpa was up early sitting at the kitchen table,reading his book.His grandson wanted to be just like him and tried to copy him in every way he could.One day the grandson asked,"Grandpa,I try to read the book just like you,but I don't understand it,and I forget what I understand as soon as I close the book.What good does reading the book do?"
The grandpa quietly turned from putting coal in the stove and replied,"Take this coal basket down to the river and bring me back a basket of water."The boy did as he was told,but all the water leaked out before he got back to the house.The grandpa laughed and said,"You'll have to move a little faster next time,"and sent him back to the river with the basket to try again.
This time the boy ran faster,but again the basket was empty before he returned.Out of breath,he told his grandpa that it was impossible to carry water in a basket,so he went to get a bucket instead.The grandpa said,"I don't want a bucket of water; I want a basket of water.You're just not trying hard enough."
The boy again dipped the basket into the river and ran hard,but when he reached his grandpa the basket was empty again.Out of breath,he said,"Grandpa,it's useless!""So,you think it is useless?"the grandpa said,"Look at the basket."
The boy looked at the basket and for the first time he realized that the basket was different.It had been transformed from a dirty old coal basket and was now clean."Grandson,that's what happens when you read the book.You might not understand or remember everything,but when you read it,you'll be changed,inside and out."

分析 本文是記敘文,講述的是一個(gè)小男孩模仿他爺爺讀書,可是每次合上課本后都不知道讀了些什么,于是他就去問他爺爺,讀書有什么好處?他爺爺讓他帶著裝煤的籃子去打水,可是每次無論他跑多快,到家籃子里都沒有了水,于是他對(duì)他爺爺說用竹籃打水是沒有用的,他爺爺讓他看看籃子,這才發(fā)現(xiàn)籃子比以前干凈了.到了最后他爺爺告訴他:讀書的時(shí)候你可能沒有理解或記住內(nèi)容,但是讀書能夠從外到內(nèi)改變你.
解答 48.A.細(xì)節(jié)理解題.從第二段小男孩給爺爺所說的What good does reading the book do?讀書到底能給帶來什么好處?故選A.
49.D.推理判斷題.從最后一段"Grandson,that's what happens when you read the book.You might not understand or remember everything,but when you read it,you'll be changed,inside and out."竹籃打水就像讀書一樣,當(dāng)讀的時(shí)候可能記不住里面的內(nèi)容,但是他從內(nèi)到外一直都在改變著你,得知他爺爺讓他打水是想讓他意識(shí)到讀書的好處.故選D.
50.C.細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)最后一段You might not understand or remember everything,but when you read it,you'll be changed,inside and out.當(dāng)讀書的時(shí)候你從內(nèi)到外都在變化,故選C.
點(diǎn)評(píng) 本文是一個(gè)人物故事類閱讀理解,題目涉及多道細(xì)節(jié)理解題,做題時(shí)結(jié)合原文和題目有針對(duì)性的找出相關(guān)語句進(jìn)行仔細(xì)分析,結(jié)合選項(xiàng)選出正確答案.推理判斷題也是要在抓住關(guān)鍵句子的基礎(chǔ)上合理的分析才能得出正確答案,切忌胡亂猜測(cè),一定要做到有理有據(jù).
