14.I left baseball,not for physical reasons but because it was my season for change.So I decided to walk away and once I did,like the vast majority of players,I was lost.It would be the first time since I learned to swing a bat that I would spend an entire summer without ever putting on a uniform.Once you leaves the place it's no longer you against that fastball,it is you against yourself.
So you swim around trying to figure out what young,retired baseball players do with their lives.For me,the moment was completely without the guiding wisdom of my father,who could communicate with me with just a nod of his head,but he passed away two years ago.
Since my retirement,I have searched for the next passion.It is a discouraging journey,and many players never find that next love,even though they kept looking.
Of course my father could never be replaced.His passion was writing.He left behind a body of poetry that guides me now.
I didn't stay lost forever.I found something that I wasn't looking for:a voice through writing.Writing introduced me to people who were otherwise strangers and made them guests at my table.Only later did I understand that this would be a bridge to understanding my father in another way.A way that led me to connect to a passion I didn't realize we both shared.
After my first book was published,I realized that writing was passion and even therapy,but now I also thought that maybe I'd found my next profession.
Thankfully,I always knew my father was proud of me.But despite living the dream of so many Americans and reaching its highest level,I have no doubt that he would be even prouder of what I am doing with my words,words that I can leave for my son to read one day.
66.Why couldn't the author's father offer him any help at the moment?A
A.Because his father had a head injury two years ago.
B.Because his father had been dead for two years.
C.Because his father was busy writing poems.
D.Because his father was away on business.
67.How did the author get over the most difficult time in life?D
A.By staying at home doing nothing.
B.By travelling around the entire summer.
C.By communicating with his father face to face.
D.By reading his father's works and writing his own.
68.According to the passage,the author was most likely to become aC.
A.poet             B.coach            C.writer             D.player
69.The author picked up writing as a career mainly becauseD.
A.he could not find any other job after he left baseball
B.his father asked him to continue his lifelong hobby
C.it could help him to make a more comfortable life
D.writing was another way to understand his father.

分析 本文属于说明文阅读,作者通过这篇文章主要向我们描述了在我放弃棒球的低谷时期我发现了父亲留下来的作品,开始创作自己的作品,这使他在找到人生的又一个激情也度过了人生中最困难的时期.

解答 66.A.细节理解题.根据文章第二段"For me,the moment was completely without the guiding wisdom of my father,who could communicate with me with just a nod of his head,but he passed away two years ago"可知父亲两年前就去世了,所以不能给作者提供帮助;故选A.
67.D.推理判断题.根据文章第五段"Writing introduced me to people who were otherwise strangers and made them guests at my table.Only later did I understand that this would be a bridge to understanding my father in another way"可知作者读了父亲的诗后,开始创作自己的作品,这使他度过了人生中最困难的时期;故选D.
68.C.推理判断题.根据文章倒数第二段的"After my first book was published…maybe I've found my next profession"可知作者最有可能成为一名作家;故选C.
69.D.推理判断题.根据文中倒数第三段"Only later did I understand that this would be a bridge to understanding my father in another way."可知写作是另一种方式去了解他的父亲;故选D.

点评 考察学生的细节理解和推理判断能力,做细节理解题时一定要找到文章中的原句,和题干进行比较,再做出正确的选择.在做推理判断题不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实,要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断.

9.Rachel Carson was an American author and environmental protection scientist."Silent Spring"was her most famous book.The idea for the book developed from a suggestion from a friend.Rachel's friend owned a protected area for birds.An airplane had flown over the area where the birds were kept and spread a powerful chemical called DDT.Many songbirds and harmless insects were killed by the DDT.
Miss Carson and other scientists were very concerned about the harmful effects of DDT and other insect-killing chemicals called pesticides (杀虫剂).Rachel Carson tried to get many magazines interested in publishing a report about the subject.However,none would agree to publish anything about such a disputed (有争议的) subject.They said no one wanted to hear that industrial companies could cause great ecological damage.
Miss Carson believed the public needed to know about this important issue.She decided to write a book about it.In her book"Silent Spring",Miss Carson questioned the right of industrial companies to pollute without considering the effects on the environment.Miss Carson argued that this kind of pollution would result in ever-decreasing populations of birds and other wildlife.She said this would lead to the loss of the wonderful sounds of nature.The chemical poisoning of the environment,she said,would cause a silent spring.
The chemical industry felt threatened.Industry spokesmen and other critics said the book was non-scientific and emotional.They misunderstood the message of the book.Miss Carson did not suggest that all pesticides be banned.She urged that control of these substances be given to biologists who could make informed decisions about the risks involved.
Support for the book increased.By the end of 1962,there were more than forty bills in state laws proposing to control pesticides.Finally,in November,1969,the United States government ruled that the use of DDT must stop in two years.
