Question

【題目】Martha Payne is 9 years old. She lives in a small community in Scotland. Martha is interested in the food at her school. She is interested in how good it tastes, and how healthy it is, and whether it contains any hairs. A few months ago, she started to write a blog about her school dinners. She photographed her school dinners, and then posted the pictures on her blog and told us what she thought about the food. Most days, she thought the food was OK, and on some days she thought it was really good.

Children in other schools, and other countries, started to read Martha's blog. Some of them left comments on Martha's school dinners. And some sent Martha pictures of their own school dinners, and Martha published these on her blog. Then Martha started to use her blog to raise money for a charity called Mary's Meals, which provides school meals for children in poor communities in developing countries.

And at this point, the officials who run the education system in the part of Scotland where Martha lives became aware of her blog. They didn't want publicity for the food in their schools. Perhaps they were afraid that people would start to criticize (批評) their school dinners and say that they were unhealthy. They said that Martha's blog had to stop.

Martha's head teacher told Martha the bad news, and Martha was sad and wrote a final blog post to say goodbye to her readers. The newspapers, the radio and the television all carried stories about Martha's blog. This was not at all what the officials wanted. A day later, they decided that Martha could continue writing her blog about her school dinners, and taking pictures of them.

【解析】試題本文是一篇新聞報道。講述九歲的女孩Martha Payne對學校里的食物感興趣，經(jīng)常寫一些關(guān)于學校里的食物的博客，還拍照片貼到她的博客里。她的博客受到廣泛的歡迎，Martha還利用博客為貧窮的孩子募捐。但是政府官員擔心人們批評學校里的食物，想要關(guān)閉Martha的博客，最終在媒體的支持下他們允許Martha繼續(xù)寫這些博客。

【1】推理判斷題。由第一段的“Martha is interested in the food at her school. She is interested in how good it tastes, and how healthy it is, and whether it contains any hairs.”可推斷，Martha對學校的食物感興趣，因此推斷她寫關(guān)于學校食物的博客是因為她對食物感興趣。故選B。

【2】推理判斷題。由第二段的“Children in other schools, and other countries, started to read Martha's blog. Some of them left comments on Martha's school dinners. And some sent Martha pictures of their own school dinners, and Martha published these on her blog.”可知，學校里的和其他國家的孩子都開始看Martha的博客，并作出評論，還發(fā)自己學校的食物的照片給她，因此推斷Martha的博客收到廣泛關(guān)注。故選C。

【3】細節(jié)理解題。由第三段的“They didn't want publicity for the food in their schools. Perhaps they were afraid that people would start to criticize (批評) their school dinners and say that they were unhealthy. ”可知，這些官員們不想讓Martha宣傳學校里的食物，也許他們害怕人們批評學校里的食物，說它們不健康。故選D。

【4】推理判斷題。由最后一段的“The newspapers, the radio and the television all carried stories about Martha's blog. This was not at all what the officials wanted. A day later, they decided that Martha could continue writing her blog about her school dinners, and taking pictures of them.”可知，報紙、電臺和電視等媒體都報道了Martha博客的事情，這不是官員們想要看到的，因此他們決定允許Martha繼續(xù)寫關(guān)于學校食物的博客。因此推斷來自媒體的支持讓官員們放棄的。故選B。
