Question

4．My son David，who was 3.5 years old，taught me a beautiful lesson today．After we finished playing with the beads （珠子），David slowly picked up each bead，looking at it as if it were made of chocolate and then put it into the box they were stored in．With over a hundred beads to go，I was getting impatient．"Why could he not pick up 10 in one go and put them in？My morning was going to be ruined today!"
But then it hit me like a brick．I noticed that he did this with as much interest as he had while we wer e playing．The boy was enjoying the whole process．For him the fun was in the game itself as well as in the process of properly packing up and cleaning up．It was not just about his turn or the fun part．Every bit was as fun as the other．
I thought of myself as a kid when we would go out to play cricket （板球）．If I was not batting or bowling （击球或掷球），I was unhappy as I impatiently waited for my turn to do so．As a result，I was unhappy while waiting for my turn and only happy for the few moments I either batted or bowled．Only the process of doing something I combined with happiness made me cheerful．The rest of the time I was waiting for my run in the future or recalling great bowling from the past．
Looking at how peacefully my son was putting beads into the box taught me that the process is the goal．The joy of journey is not in getting there but in every step of it．

Answer 1

分析 本文是一篇人物故事类阅读，属于记叙文，我的儿子大卫，他是3岁半，今天给我上了一堂课，在我们玩珠子之后，大卫慢慢捡起每一个珠子，看着它，就好像它是由巧克力做的，然后把它放到箱子中保存．本文以此展开，主要讲述了我的儿子让我明白的道理．

解答 16．答案：D．细节理解题．根据第一段中的"With over a hundred beads to go，I was getting impatient．‘Why could he not pick up 10 in one go and put them in？My morning was going to be ruined today!'"可知，作者看到儿子把珠子一颗一颗地捡起来并放入盒子里，而不是一次捡十颗，那么要捡一百多颗珠子肯定会耗费很长时间，所以作者觉得整个早晨都要被毁了，变得不耐烦．故选D．
17．答案：C．句意理解题．根据"But"提示可知，前后为转折关系，结合下文可知，作者注意到儿子正在享受这一过程，因此该句表示作者突然理解了儿子的行为．故选C．
18．答案：B．推理判断题．根据第三段的第二句"If I was not batting（用球板击球） or bowling（投球），I was unhappy as I impatiently waited for my turn to do so"可知，作者等得不耐烦，急切地想打球．故选B．
