【题目】I am 26. I’m clear that I’m never going to catch up with Mother Teresa. But I want to do something to help people every single day like her.

Everybody thinks we just serve food and soda. The safety training is serious and stressful. Caring for 49 people in a business class in 90 minutes is not easy. I had a roommate who was a waitress; she just left a candle and a table cloth burning, and I used a fire extinguisher (灭火器) to put out the fire. If something goes bad at her job, she calls the police. But if something happens up in the air, it’s up to us.

I’m single and have no kids. I’ve flown every Christmas since 1995. If I fly, someone else can be with their kids. Christmas in an airport can be depressing, but it’s the little things that make a difference.

We’re not robots. It’s hard to put on a smile and just pretend everything is great when it isn’t. I’ve seen co-workers lose a family member the day before a trip and just pull themselves together (take control of their feelings and behave in a calm way). At the end of a 14-hour flight, it’s like, “It was really nice to help you, but I’m ready for you to get off the plane.” Those last 15 minutes can be the longest 15 minutes of your life. You can’t wait to turn off the flight attendant’s voice and get something to eat without anyone saying “Excuse me.”

Sometimes I go all day and never hear a “please” or a “thank you.” When you say thank you, it’s huge. It makes us feel like you actually see us as fellow humans. We’re up there together at a height of 30,000 feet, enjoying the miracle (奇迹) of the modern flight.

【1】What’s the author’s attitude towards Mother Teresa?

A. Grateful. B. Fearful.

C. Doubtful. D. Admiring.

【2】 How did the author like her roommate’s job?

A. It was the same as hers.

B. It was more interesting than hers.

C. It was easier than hers.

D. It was more serious than hers.

【3】Why does the author fly every Christmas?

A. Because she has nowhere to go.

B. Because she’s trying to be a helpful co-worker.

C. Because she owes her co-workers some favors.

D. Because she’d like to earn more money.

【4】What does the author imply by saying the underlined sentence “We’re not robots”?

A. Flight attendants are not stronger than robots.

B. Flight attendants also experience emotions.

C. Flight attendants get tired while robots don’t.

D. Flight attendants need to rest now and then.

【答案】

【1】D

【2】C

【3】B

【4】B

【解析】

试题分析:作者是一名飞机乘务员,她钦佩Mother Teresa,她希望自己像她一样为人们多做一些事情。

【1】D推理判断题。根据第一段I am 26. I’m clear that I’m never going to catch up with Mother Teresa. But I want to do something to help people every single day like her.我26岁,我很清楚我从来都不会赶上Mother Teresa,但我想做一些事情像他一样帮助人们。可知作者对Mother Teresa是钦佩和羡慕的。故选D。

【2】C推理判断题。根据第二段第三句I had a roommate who was a waitress; she just left a candle and a table cloth burning, and I used a fire extinguisher (灭火器) to put out the fire.我有一个做服务员的室友,她只是把一支蜡烛和一块桌布在燃烧,而我要用灭火器把火扑灭。可知室友的工作比作者的工作要容易,故选C。

【3】B推理判断题。根据第三段第三句If I fly, someone else can be with their kids. Christmas in an airport can be depressing, but it’s the little things that make a difference.如果我飞,其他某人就会和他们的孩子在一起。一个飞机场的圣诞节可能是令人沮丧的,但这小事情会产生大意义。可推知作者想成为一名有意的合作者,故选B。

【4】B推理判断题。根据倒数第二段特别是第二句It’s hard to put on a smile and just pretend everything is great when it isn’t.呈现微笑,假装微笑当他们不是的时候和最后一句You can’t wait to turn off the flight attendant’s voice and get something to eat without anyone saying “Excuse me.”你会迫不及待地关掉空中乘务员的声音,找点东西吃,没有任何人说“对不起”。可知乘务员也是人,也是有情感的。故选B。

【名师点拨】

.推理判断题要求在理解原文表面文字信息的基础上,做出一定的推理判断,从而得到文章的隐含意义和深层意义。推理判断题所涉及的内容可能是文中的某一句话,也可能是某几句话,所以,推理题的答案只能是根据原文表面文字信息一步推出的答案:即对原文某一句话或某几句话所作的同义改写或综合。推理判断题的题干中通常含有infer, suggest, imply, conclude indicate等标志性词语。 这种题型主要包括细节判断题、态度观点推断题、写作意图推断题、文章出处判断题和猜测想象推断题。比如第28小题,推理判断题。根据倒数第二段特别是第二句It’s hard to put on a smile and just pretend everything is great when it isn’t.呈现微笑,假装微笑当他们不是的时候和最后一句You can’t wait to turn off the flight attendant’s voice and get something to eat without anyone saying “Excuse me.”你会迫不及待地关掉空中乘务员的声音,找点东西吃,没有任何人说“对不起”。可知乘务员也是人,也是有情感的。故选B。

It was almost five years since I began to learn English. I’m glad to say I’m getting along well with it. However, first I came across a lot of difficulties. I couldn’t pronounce English sounds good, nor could I remember the words I had learned. In class, I couldn’t understand that the teacher had said. I almost lost my heart when the teacher said to me, “Keeping on and you will do well.” I was greatly encouraging. I started working hard at English. With the help by my teacher and classmates, I made some progresses. I’m very pleased, but I will work harder.

【题目】Maybe you are an ordinary student. 1 This is not necessarily so. Anyone can become a better student if he or she wants to. Here’s how:

Plan your time carefully. When planning your work, you should make a list of things that you have to do. After making this list, you should make a schedule of your time. First arrange your time for eating, sleeping, dressing, etc, then decide a good, regular time for studying. 2 A weekly schedule may not solve all your problems, but it will force you realize what is happening to your time.

Make good use of your time in class. 3 Listening carefully in class means less work later. Taking notes will help you remember what the teacher says.

Study regularly. When you get home from school, go over your notes, review the important points that your teacher is going to discuss the next day, read that material. 4 If you do these things regularly, the material will become more meaningful, and you will remember it longer.

Develop a good attitude towards tests. The purpose of a test is to show what you have learned about a subject. The world won’t end if you don’t pass a test, so don’t be over worried.

5 You will probably discover many others after you have tried these.

A. This will help you understand the next class.

B. You probably think you will never be a top student.

C. Don’t forget to set aside enough time for entertainment.

D. No one can become a top student unless he or she works hard.

E. There are other methods that might help you with your study.

F. Take advantage of class time to listen to everything the teacher says.

G. Make full use of spare time to take note of what the teacher says in class.
