【题目】 When I was reading a post about taking someone to the movies, something happened a couple of years ago suddenly hit me.

I used to drink Cokes and they had a competition where there was a code inside the bottle cap. You might win something so long as you went to a website and entered the code. I won some free Cokes. But what astonished and delighted me was the Grand Prize I won then.

The Grand Prize was free movies for a year. They pointed out that one movie a week was what free movies for a year meant. All of the tickets were valid(有效的) for one year from the day I received them. So I must use them in the following year. I used quite a few taking friends to movies we all wanted to see.

But the best thing I did with them was that I donated 20 tickets (all I had left by that time) to the local Women’s Transition House, a place where women and children could go when avoiding a bad situation in general and get help to make a new start.

My workplace team had decided to help people in need, so we collected donations for that particular New Year’s Day. I knew that the Women’s Transition House provided some childcare for the women so they could go for job interviews and things like that.

I put those tickets in a box and wrote a note on the outside, asking the Women’s Transition House staff to give movie tickets to women there over the holidays to have some fun to do, with or without their children, which made me really happy.

1How did the author get the tickets?

A.By visiting a website by chance.B.By using some Cokes to get them.

C.By getting a code at the bottom of a bottle.D.By winning the prize for drinking Cokes.

2How many tickets did the author and his friends use?

A.About 22.B.About 32.C.About 52.D.About 365.

3Which of the following best describe the author ?

A.Lucky and caring.B.Creative and careful.

C.Responsible and cheerful.D.Thankful and generous.

4Which of the following proverb can best explain the main idea of this article

A.The roses in their hands, the flavor in mine.

B.Good luck favors those who are always ready.

C.Actions speak louder than words.

D.God helps those who help themselves.

【解析】

这是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍了作者在一次活动中赢得了50多张电影票,在邀请同事看了几场电影后,他决定把剩余的电影票捐给他人。事情虽小,但是自己却获得了心灵的满足。

1细节理解题。由文章第二段中的“I used to drink Cokes and they had a competition where there was a code inside the bottle cap. You might win something so long as you went to a website and entered the code. I won some free Cokes. But what astonished and delighted me was the Grand Prize I won then.(我过去常常喝可乐,它们瓶盖内有一个密码可以参加比赛。只要你上网,把密码输进它的网站,你就有可能赢得奖励。我赢得了很多免费的可乐。但是最令我惊讶和高兴的是一次赢得的大奖。)”和第三段首句“The Grand Prize was free movies for a year. (大奖是一年的免费电影票。)”可知,作者是通过喝可口可乐赢得的电影票。故选D

2细节理解题。由第三段中的“They pointed out that one movie a week was what free movies for a year meant.(他们说一年的免费电影票意味着我每周可以去看一部免费电影)”,再根据常识一年有大约52周,可知,作者得到了大约52张电影票。再由第四段中的“But the best thing I did with them was that I donated 20 tickets (all I had left by that time) to the local Women’s Transition House,(但是我做的最好的事情是将当时剩余的20张票捐赠给了当地的妇女过渡之家)”,由52-20=32可知,作者和朋友大概用掉了32张电影票。故选B。

3推理判断题。由第二段中的“But what astonished and delighted me was the Grand Prize I won then.(但是最令我惊讶和高兴的是一次赢得的大奖。)”可知,作者是很幸运的。由第五段中的“My workplace team had decided to help people in need, so we collected donations for that particular New Year’s Day.(我的工作团队已经决定去帮助有需要的人,因此我们为那个新年收集了一些捐赠品)”可知,作者还是很关心别人的。A. Lucky and caring幸运的,关心别人的; B. Creative and careful富有创造力的,仔细地;C. Responsible and cheerful负责人的,欢乐的; D. Thankful and generous充满感恩的,大方的。故选A

4主旨大意题。由文章最后一段中的“I put those tickets in a box and wrote a note on the outside, asking the Women’s Transition House staff to give movie tickets to women there over the holidays to have some fun to do, with or without their children, which made me really happy(我把票放在一个盒子里,在外边写了张纸条,让妇女过度会的成员将票给在那里过春节的妇女,让她们有有趣的事去做,不管是不是和孩子在一起,这真的让我很开心)”可知,作者开心的真正原因是他能给别人付出一些东西,也让别人开心。所以选项A(赠人玫瑰,手有余香)很符合作者的感受。故选A

主旨大意题是篇章阅读一个主要的考察方式,标题题(best title)是其一个典型的考点,也是高考阅读中每年的必考题。主旨大意题解题技巧是不要被文章细节所干扰。一般有两种方式解题:一是看首尾段,根据首尾段内容总结主题思想;二是看每段段首句,根据所有段首句总结主题思想。本题中的第四题就是小标题题,由于这是一篇记叙文,我们要考虑事件的开始与结尾。文章开始是描写自己得奖引出文章主题,文章最后描述自己将电影票分享给别人带来的快乐。所以本文中心主要在最后一段点出:赠人玫瑰,手有余香。这样就可以选出正确答案。

【题目】Camping Tips

Camping offers the quietness of escape.1Because exercise and the beauty of nature can help people relax from their busy life.

Whether you're in the woods, in the desert, or climbing mountains, you'll want to keep some survival skills in mind to make sure of a safe trip.2Different terrains (地势) carry different challenges. For example, putting up a tent on sand is very different from setting it up on land, and if you don't have the right equipment, you could find yourself sleeping under the stars on a windy beach.

3For example, everything from poisonous (有毒的) plants to dangerous wildlife. As you plan your trip, ask an outdoors expert at your local sporting goods store for advice, go online to research where you'll be going, or find some books in the library.

A day or so before you leave, check local weather forecasts, so you won't end up in the path of a hurricane, flooding or other natural disasters.4Besides, it will also help you know whether to give up the area.

If you hike to your campsite, practise walking with your fully packed backpack to get an idea of how the pack fits. This helps to prevent the case when you are too tired to walk with it. It's also a good idea to practice walking in the shoes you'll be wearing.

5If you're hiking in far areas with no dustbins, you'll need to carry out your rubbish and other things. Make this easier by packing as lightly as you can.

A. Know the camping environment.

B. Taking enough money with you is necessary.

C. Remembering a hiking trip will bring you much pleasure.

D. You'll also need to be prepared for any possible dangers.

E. Knowing the weather will help you find out how you can prepare.

F. And remember that saying “Take only pictures. Leave only footprints”

G. If it's combined with (与……结合) the exercise of a hiking trip, it's good for body and mind.
