Question

【題目】

Gregory is my brother. He is eight years old and I am ten. We always look forward to the first big snow of the year. We have a snow day from school.

On a snow day, Mom often makes hot dogs for us and we bake cakes. It is always something special when we have the first snow. Mom likes to make vegetable soup for us to eat. She says it helps to keep us warm when we play in the snow.

Gregory and I go outside early in the morning. We bundle up so we can stay warm. The first thing we do is to make snow angels (天使). Then we slide down the hill on boxes with our neighbours. Finally, we spend the whole afternoon making our first snowman of the year.

The snowman is right out there in our front yard (院子). Mr Bowman is our neighbour across the street. He gives us an old black hat for the snowman to wear. Mom gives us a green scarf to put around the snowman’s neck. We use sticks from the yard to make the arms. And we also use coal for the snowman’s eyes and mouth and a carrot for his nose.

Mom always takes our picture with the snowman. Gregory is fun to play with when it snows. He is a good brother most of the time.

本篇文章難度適中，主要講述我和弟弟喬治兩個(gè)人下雪天的活動。

【1】推理判斷題。根據(jù)Gregory is my brother可知，喬治是我的弟弟，所以我應(yīng)該是他的姐姐，故選B。

【2】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)Mom likes to make vegetable soup for us to eat. She says it helps to keep us warm when we play in the snow可知，因?yàn)樗�能幫我們保暖，故選D。

【3】詞義猜測題。根據(jù)We bundle up so we can stay warm可知，我們穿足夠的衣服來保暖，故選A。

解答詞義猜測題時(shí)，可以使用如下技巧：1、根據(jù)上下文來猜測詞義；2、通過同義詞或近義詞來猜測詞義；3、通過構(gòu)詞法來猜測詞義；4、通過定義或釋義來猜測詞義；5、通過句法功能來猜測詞義；6、通過轉(zhuǎn)折和因果關(guān)系來猜測詞義；7. 通過生活常識來猜測詞義。對于這類題采取“代入法”也非常有效，即將備選答案逐一代入文中，哪一個(gè)選項(xiàng)能使句子的意思通順、連貫，且與上下文的內(nèi)容一致，哪一個(gè)選項(xiàng)就是該題的正確答案。例如第3題。
