专题十五阅读理解一、记叙文高考精萃Passage 1(2014四川卷)In 1943, when I was 4, my parents moved from Coeur dAlene, Idaho, to Fairbanks, Alaska, where adventure was never very far away.We arrived in the summer, just in time to enjoy the midnight sun. All that sunlight was fantastic for Moms vegetable garden. Working in the garden at midnight tended to throw her timing off, so she didnt care much about my bedtime.Dad was a Railway Express agent and Morn was his clerk. That left me in a mess. I usually managed to find some trouble to get into. Once I had a little fire going in the dirt basement of a hotel. I had tried to light a barrel(桶) of paint but couldnt really get a good fire going. The smoke got pretty bad, though, and when I made my exit, a crowd and the police were there to greet me. The policemen took my matches and drove me home.Mom and Dad were occupied in the garden and Dad told the police to keep me, and they did! I had a tour of the prison before Morn rescued me. I hadnt turned 5 yet.As I entered kindergarten, the serious cold began to set in. Would it surprise you to know that I soon left part of my tongue on a metal handrail at school?As for Leonhard Seppala, famous as a dog sledder (驾雪橇者), I think I knew him well because I was taken for a ride with his white dog team one Sunday. At the time I didnt realize what a superstar he was, but I do remember the ride well. I was wrapped (包裹)heavily and well sheltered from the freezing and blowing weather.In 1950, we moved back to Coeur dAlene, but we got one more Alaskan adventure when Leonhard invited us eight years later by paying a visit to Idaho to attend a gathering of former neighbors of Alaska.1What can be inferred about the authors family?A.

The elephant had heard the distant alarm calls of animals and her mood suddenly changed. I urged the elephant deeper into the forest. We sounded like a forest firecrackling，snapping，trailblazing. But through all the noise came a sharp warning cry. The elephant stopped and we heard it againthe telltale call of a spotted deer.I looked quickly around the shadows of the forest. Rays of sunlight shone through tree branches, beneath which the patchwork(交错) of green plants and shadowswithinshadows would make tiger stripes (条纹) look more attractive. Apart from an occasional noise from the elephants stomach, the forest was silent.Gradually, the tension slipped from our bodies. The elephant seized a nearby branch and put it into her mouth. I reached forward and gently moved my hand over the elephants neck；there was a soft part, free of wrinkles and hairs, behind her ear.This was my fourth time to_sense_the_aura of the forest in Corbett，although I saw no tigers in the end. Located at the foot of the Himalayan mountains，Corbett is home to about 135 Bengal tigers, but the forest seemed to be guarding their whereabouts(出没处), a silent reminder of their secrecy and rarity. Still，I was happy enough touching the elephant behind the ear. If I had so desperately wanted to see a tiger，I could have gone to a zoo. After all，spotting tigers merely confirms their beauty; tracking them can make you aware of something more.1Which of the following was a clear signal of alarm?A. The elephant stopped.B.

Seeing a Bengal tiger is quite thrilling.B. It is very timeconsuming to travel in Corbett.C. It is really worthwhile to study the animals in Corbett.D. The process of finding Bengal tigers is most appealing.答案与解析作者去科比特国家公园寻找孟加拉野生虎，虽然这一过程充满了危险、神秘和惊悚，而且毫无结果，但是作者却乐此不疲，觉得寻找老虎的过程最有趣。1B细节理解题。根据第一段倒数第二句中的“a sharp warning cry”以及it 所指代的“the telltale call of a spotted deer”可知梅花鹿的叫声是一种警告的信号。2A细节理解题。根据第一段内容可知，作者主要是通过描述各种各样的声音开始讲述他的森林之旅的。3C推理判断题。根据上文，特别是第一、二段可推断出，画线部分指的是“感觉到那种氛围”。4D推理判断题。根据最后一段最后一句“After all, spotting tigers merely confirms their beauty; tracking them can make you aware of something more.” 可推断出，作者觉得发现孟加拉虎的过程最吸引人。Passage 3(2014山东卷)It was one of those terribly hot days in Baltimore. Needless to say, it was too hot to do anything outside. But it was also scorching in our apartment. This was 1962, and I would not live in a place with an air conditioner for another ten years. So my brother and I decided to leave the apartment to find someplace indoors. He suggested we could see a movie. It was a brilliant plan.Movie theaters were one of the few places you could sit all day andmost importantsit in air conditioning. In those days, you could buy one ticket and sit through two movies. Then, the theater would show the same two movies again. If you wanted to, you could sit through them twice. Most people did not do that, but the manager at our theater, Mr. Bellow, did not mind if you did.That particular day, my brother and I sat through both movies twice, trying to escape the heat. We bought three bags of popcorn and three sodas each. Then, we sat and watched The Music Man followed by The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance. Wed already seen the second movie once before. It had been at the theater since January, because Mr. Bellow loved anything with John Wayne in it.We left the theater around 8, just before the evening shows began. But we returned the next day and saw the same two movies again, twice more. And we did it the next day too. Finally, on the fourth day, the heat wave broke.Still, to this day I can sing half the songs in The Music Man and recite half of John Wayne and Jimmy Stewarts dialogue from The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance! Those memories are some of the few I have of the heat wave of 1962. Theyre really memories of the screen, not memories of my life.1In which year did the author first live in a place with an air conditioner?A1952.B1962.C1972. D1982.2What does the underlined word “It” in Paragraph 3 refer to?AThe heat.BThe theater.CThe Music Man.DThe Man Who Shot Liberty Valance.3What do we known about Mr. Bellow?AHe loved children very much.BHe was a fan of John Wayne.CHe sold air conditioners.DHe was a movie star.4Why did the author and his/her brother see the same movies several times?AThe two movies were really wonderful.BThey wanted to avoid the heat outside.CThe manager of the theater was friendly.DThey liked the popcorn and the soda at the theater.5What can we learn from the last paragraph?AThe author turned out to be a great singer.BThe author enjoyed the heat wave of 1962.CThe authors life has been changed by the two movies.DThe author considers the experience at the theater unforgettable.答案与解析本文为记叙文。1962年天气炎热，家中没有空调，作者与其弟弟两人来到电影院看电影躲避酷暑。1C细节理解题。根据文章第一段“This was 1962, and I would not live in a place with an air conditioner for another ten years.”可知，那年是1962年，作者在没有空调的房子里又生活了十年。所以可以得知，作者第一次生活在有空调的屋子里应是1972年。2D代词指代题。根据文章第三段中“Then, we sat and watched The Music Man follwed by The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance. Wed already seen the second movie once before.”可知，画线词it 指的是上文提到的电影The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance，故D项正确。3B细节理解题。根据文章第三段最后一句“It had been at the theater since January, because Mr. Bellow loved anything with John Wayne in it.”可知他是约翰韦恩的一位影迷。故B项正确。4B推理判断题。根据倒数第二段最后一句“Finally, on the fourth day, the heat wave broke.”以及第二段第一句和第三段第一句可知，他们反复看同样的影片，就是为了在电影院避暑。故B项正确。5D推理判断题。根据文章最后一段所述内容可知，直到今天，当时的情景历历在目，甚至其中的一些台词作者都能背诵。因此可以看出，这段经历对作者来说是难忘的。故D项正确。Passage 4(2014福建卷)It was Mothers Day morning last year and I was doing shopping at our local supermarket with my fiveyearold son, Tenyson. As we were leaving, we found that only minutes earlier an elderly woman had fallen over at the entrance and had hit her head on the concrete. Her husband was with her, but there was blood everywhere and the woman was embarrassed and clearly in shock.Walking towards the scene, Tenyson became very upset about what had happened to the couple. He said to me, “Mum, its not much fun falling over in front of everyone.”At the front of the supermarket, a charity(慈善) group had set up a stand selling cooked sausages and flowers to raise funds. Tenyson suggested that we should buy the lady a flower. “It will make her feel better，” he said. I was amazed that hed come up with this sweet idea. So we went over to the flower seller and asked her if we could buy a flower for the lady to cheer her up. “Just take it，”she replied. “I cant take your money for such a wonderful gesture.”By now paramedics(急救人员) had arrived, and were attending to the injured woman. As we walked up to her, my son became intimidated by all the blood and medical equipment. He said he was just too scared to go up to her.Instead I gave the flower to the womans husband and told him, “My son was very upset for your wife and wanted to give her this flower to make her feel better.”At that, the old man started crying and said, “Thank you so much, you have a wonderful son. Happy Mothers Day to you.”The man then bent down and gave his wife the flower, telling her who it was from. Though badly hurt and shaken, the old lady looked up at Tenyson with love in her eyes and gave him a little smile.1What does the author intend to tell us?AOne can never be too careful.BActions speak louder than words.CLove begins with a little smile.DA small act of kindness brings a great joy.2Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?AThe elderly woman was knocked down by Tenyson.BTenysons idea of buying a flower gained his mothers support.CTenysons care for the elderly woman puzzled the flower seller.DThe elderly woman was moved to tears by Tenysons gesture.3The underlined word “intimidated” in the fourth paragraph probably means “_”Aastonished BstruckCfrightened Dexcited4What would be the best title for the passage?AFlower Power BMothers DayCAn Accidental Injury DAn Embarrassing Moment答案与解析在母亲节这天，儿子为在超市门前摔倒的老妇人买花以使她感觉好点，这个小小的善举让我们体会到爱无处不在。1D目的意图题。本文主要介绍的是儿子细小的善举为老妇人带来了快乐，故选D项。A项“一个人越小心越好”；B项“行动胜过语言”；C项“爱始于微笑”；D项“小小善举能带来快乐”。2B细节理解题。根据第三段“So we went over to the flower seller and asked her if we could buy a flower for the lady to cheer her up.”可知小男孩的举动得到了妈妈的支持。根据第一段第二句可知A项错误；根据第三段最后一句可知C项错误；根据最后一段可知D项错误。3C词义猜测题。根据下文“He said he was just too scared to go up to her.”可知此处intimidated 应是“害怕”，故选C项。4A文章标题题。本文主要介绍的是儿子提议为在超市门前摔倒的老妇人买一束花以便使她心情好起来和这一善举的影响的故事，故最佳标题是A项“花的力量”。B项“母亲节”；C项“意外伤害”；D项“尴尬时刻”均不符合题意。Passage 5(2014山东卷)One morning, Anns neighbor Tracy found a lost dog wandering around the local elementary school.
