12.Mark and his brother Jason both were looking at the shining new computer enviously.Jason was determined not to go against their father's wishes but Mark was more adventurous than his brother.He loved experimenting and his aim was to become a scientist like his father.
"Dad will be really mad if he finds out you've been playing with his new computer."Jason said,"He told us not to touch it."
"He won't find out."Mark said,"I'll just have a quick look and shut it down."
Mark had been scolded before for touching his father's equipment.But his curiosity was difficult to control and this new computer really puzzled him.
It was a strange-looking machine-one his dad had brought home from the laboratory where he worked."It's an experimental model,"his father had explained,"so don't touch it under any circumstances."But his father's warning only served to make Mark more curious.Without any further thought,Mark turned on the power switch.The computer burst into life and seconds later,the screen turned into colors,shifting and changing and then two big white words appeared in the center of the screen:"SPACE TRANSPORTER."
"Yes!"Mark cried excitedly,"It's a computer game.I knew it!Dad's only been pretending to work.He's really been playing games instead."A new message appeared on the screen:
"ENTER NAMES
VOYAGER 1:…
VOYAGER 2:…"
Mark's fingers flew across the keyboard as he typed in both of their names.
"INPUT ACCEPTED.START TRANSPORT PROGRAM.AUTO-RETRIEVE INITIATED(自動回收程序已啟動)."
The screen turned even brighter and a noise suddenly rose in volume.
"I think we'd better shut it off,Mark,"Jason yelled,reaching for the power switch.He was really frightened.
But his hand never reached the switch.A single beam of dazzling white light burst out of the computer screen,wrapping the boys in its glow (光芒),until they themselves seemed to be glowing.Then it died down just as suddenly as it had burst into life.And the boys were no longer there.On the screen,the letters changed.
"TRANSPORT SUCCESSFUL.DESTINATION(目的地):MARS.RETRIEVE DATE:2025."

分析 本文講的是一個科幻故事,講述的是兄弟倆對父親的電腦很好奇,打開之后按照程序進行輸入,結(jié)果通過電腦,穿越到火星上去的科幻故事.

解答 56.C 考查細節(jié)理解.根據(jù)第四段"Mark had been scolded before for touching his father's equipment.But his curiosity was difficult to control and this new computer really puzzled him."可知,他很難控制自己的好奇心,而且這臺新的電腦真的讓他很困惑,選項C是這句話的同義表達----He was so much attracted by it:他完全被電腦給吸引住了.所以本題選C.
57.C 考查細節(jié)推理.根據(jù)第一段中的"become a scientist like his father"和第五段中的"from the laboratory where he worked"及下文發(fā)生的情況可知,他父親最有可能在科研中心工作.選C.
58.A 考查細節(jié)理解.從第六段的"It's a computer game."可知,Mark認為它是一個電腦游戲的名字.選A.
59.D 考查細節(jié)理解.從倒數(shù)第三段的"Jason yelled,reaching for the power switch.He was really frightened."可知,Jason非常害怕會有危險的事情發(fā)生.所以選D.
60.B 考查細節(jié)理解.從文章的最后句子:On the screen,the letters changed."TRANSPORT SUCCESSFUL.DESTINATION ( 目的地):MARS.RETRIEVE DATE:2025."可知他們被送往另外的星球.所以選B.

點評 文章對細節(jié)的描寫很到位,題目也自然是針對這些因素了.本文考查細節(jié)題為主,細節(jié)題可以在文章中直接找到與答案有關(guān)的信息或是其變體.搜查信息在閱讀中非常重要它包括理解作者在敘述某事時使用的具體事實、數(shù)據(jù)、圖表等細節(jié)信息.在一篇短文里大部分篇幅都屬于這類圍繞主體展開的細節(jié).做這類題一般采用尋讀法,即先讀題,然后帶著問題快速閱讀短文,找出與問題有關(guān)的詞語或句子,再對相關(guān)部分進行分析對比,找出答案.

7.Shay asked,"Do you think they'll let me play?"Shay's father knew that most of the boys would not want someone like Shay on their team,but the father also understood that if his son,mentally and physically disabled,were allowed to play,it would give him a much-needed sense of belonging and some confidence.
Shay's father approached one of the boys on the field and asked if Shay could play,not expecting much.The boy looked around and said,"We're losing by six runs (分) and the game is in the eighth inning (局).I guess he can be on our team and we'll try to put him in to bat in the final inning.
Shay struggled over to the team's bench and put on a team shirt with a broad smile and his father had a small tear in his eye and warmth in heart.The boys saw the father's joy at his son being accepted.
In the bottom of the eighth inning,Shay's team scored a few runs but was still behind by three.In the top of the final inning,Shay put on a glove and played in the field.Even though no hits came his way,he was obviously joyful just to be in the game and on the field.In the bottom of the final inning,Shay's team scored again.Now,Shay was scheduled to be next at bat.Would they let Shay bat and give away their chance to win the game?
Surprisingly,Shay was given the bat.Everyone knew that a hit was almost impossible.The first pitch (投) came and Shay missed.The pitcher again again took a few steps forward to throw the ball softly towards Shay.As the pitch came in,Shay swung at the ball and hit a slow ground ball right back to the pitcher.
The pitcher could have easily thrown he ball to the first baseman and Shay would have been out and that would have been the end of the game.Instead,the pitcher threw the ball right over the head of  the first baseman,beyond the reach of all teammates,The audience and the players from both teams started screaming,"Shay,run to first!"Never in his life had Shay ever run that far but made it to first base,wide-eyed and shocked..
Everyone  should,"Run  to  second!"Catching his breath,Shay awkwardly ran towards second.By the time Shay rounded towards second base,the smallest guy on their team,who had a chance to be the hero for his team fir the first time,could have thrown the ball to the second baseman,but he understood the pitcher's intentions and he too  intentionally threw the ball high and far over the third baseman's head.
All were screaming,"Shay,Shay,Shay,all the way Shay."Shay reached third base when one opposing player ran to help him and shouted,"Shay,run to third."As Shay rounded third,all were on their feet,crying,"Shay,run home!"Shay ran to home,stepped on the home base and was cheered as the hero who the who won the game for his team.
That day,the boys from both teams helped bring a piece true love and humanity into this world.Shay didn't make it to another summer and died that winter,having never forgotten being the hero and making his father so happy and coming home and seeing his mother tearfully hug her little hero of the day!

68.The smallest boy threw the ball high and far over the third baseman's head,probably because that boyA.

C.failed to throw the ball to the second baseman

1.Life can be so wonderful,full of adventure and joy.It can also be full of challenges,setbacks and heartbreaks.Whatever our circumstances,we generally still have dreams,hopes and desires-that little something more we want for ourselves and our loved ones.Yet knowing we can have more can also create a problem,because when we go to change the way we do things,up come the old patterns and pitfalls  that stopped us from seeking what we wanted in the first place.
This tension between what we feel we can have and"what we're seemingly able to have is the niggling suffering,the anxiety we feel.This is where we usually think it's easier to just give up.But we're never meant to let go of the part of us that knows we can have more.The intelligence behind that knowing is us-the real us.It's the part that believes in life and its possibilities.If you drop that,you begin to feel a little"dead"inside because you're dropping"you".
So,if we have this capability but somehow life seems to keep us stuck,how do we break these patterns?
Decide on a new course and make one decision at a time.This is good advice for a new adventure or just getting through today's challenges.
While,deep down,we know we can do it,our mind-or the minds of those close to us-usually says we can't.
That isn't a reason to stop,it's just the mind,that little man or woman on your shoulder,trying to talk you out of something again.It has done it many times before.It's all about starting simple and doing it now.
Decide and act before overthinking.When you do this you may feel a little,or large,release from the jail of your mind and you'll be on your way.
 
68.It can be inferred from the first two paragraphs that we shouldC.
A.slow down and live a simple life
B.be careful when we choose to change
C.stick to our dreams under any circumstances
D.be content with what we already have
69.What is the key to breaking the old patterns?B.
A.To focus on every detail.
B.To decide and take immediate action.
C.To listen to those close to us.
D.To think twice before we act.
70.Which of the following best explains the underlined part in the last paragraph?C.
A.Escape from your punishment.
B.Realization of your dreams.
C.Freedom from your tension.
D.Reduction of your expectations.
71.What does the author intend to tell us?A.
A.It's easier than we think to get what we want.
B.It's important to learn to accept sufferings in life.
C.It's impractical to change our way of thinking.
D.It's harder than we expect to follow a new course.
