When I was in the third grade, I was picked to be the princess(公主)in the school play. For weeks my mother had helped me practice my lines. But once on stage, every word disappeared from my head. Then my teacher told me she had written a narrator's(解說者的)part for the play, and asked me to change roles. Though I didn't tell my mother what had happened that day, she sensed my unhappiness and asked if I wanted to take a walk in the yard.

    It was a lovely spring day. We could see dandelions(蒲公英)popping through the grass in bunches, as if a painter had touched our landscape with bits of gold. I watched my mother carelessly bend down by one of the bunches. "I think I am going to dig up all these weeds, "she said." From now on, we'll have only roses in this garden."

    "But I like dandelions, "I protested." All flowers are beautiful-even dandelions!"

    My mother looked at me seriously. "Yes, every flower gives pleasure in its own way, doesn't it?" she asked thoughtfully. I nodded. "And that is true of people, too," she added.

    When I realized that she had guessed my pain, I started to cry and told her the truth.

  “But you will be a beautiful narrator,”she said, reminding me of how much I loved to read stories aloud to her.

    Over the next few weeks, with her continuous encouragement, I learned to take pride in the role. The big day finally came. A few minutes before the play, my teacher came over to me. “Your mother asked me to give this to you,” she said, handing me a dandelion. After the play, I took home the flower, laughing that I was perhaps the only person who would keep such a weed.

1.The girl did not play the role of the princess mainly because_______.

    A. she felt nervous on the stage.

    B. she lost her interest in that role.

    C. she preferred the role of the narrator

    D. she had difficulty memorizing her words

2.Why did the mother suggest a walk in the garden?

    A. To remove the dandelions

    B. To enjoy the garden scene

    C. To have a talk with her daughter.

    D. To help her daughter with the play.

3.What is the main idea of the story?

    A. Everybody can find his or her own way to success.

    B. Everybody has his or her own value in the world.

    C. Everybody should learn to play different roles

    D Everybody has some unforgettable memory.

 

【答案】

1.A

【解析】:從文章第一段第三句:But once on stage, every word disappeared from my head.這一句話可以看出作者只是一時的緊張。

【考點】:文章細節(jié)推理。

【易錯點】:容易想當然的認為作者記不下臺詞,因此錯選D答案。

2.C

【解析】:文章第一段里有:Though I didn't tell my mother what had happened that day, she sensed my unhappiness and asked if I wanted to take a walk in the yard.從這里可以看出媽媽叫我出去散步是為了用一種啟發(fā)式的方法和我交流談心,解決我的心病。A、B都是表面的現(xiàn)象,而D答案有一些片面,媽媽關(guān)鍵的是解決我的心理問題而不是戲劇的問題。

【考點】:細節(jié)分析。

【易錯點】:只看到了表面容易錯選D,從而違背了整片文章的主題。

3.B

【解析】:從文章中"Yes, every flower gives pleasure in its own way, doesn't it?" she asked thoughtfully. I nodded. "And that is true of people, too," she added.這句話可以看出媽媽所要表達的觀點是沒個人無論扮演什么角色都有其重要性。

【考點】:文章細節(jié)推斷和篇章理解。

【易錯點】:容易錯選C,該答案說的內(nèi)容有一些偏頗。人生重要的是無論做什么都有認識自己重要性和價值而不是要我們扮演各種各樣的角色。

【篇章分析】:本篇文章講述的是一位媽媽從側(cè)面教育孩子一個生活中的道理:所有的花都是美麗的哪怕是最樸素的蒲公英。從而說明我們每個人不管做什么工作扮演什么角色都有我們自己的價值。文章談的是小事情,但是說明的是大道理,描寫非常生動細膩,很有教育意義。

  “I swear, I didn't steal anything!” I shouted over the alarm.Obviously the security guard didn't believe me because he seized the shopping bag right out of my hand.

  “Do you have a receipt of this?” he asked doubtfully, putting any new back-to-school outfit(全套設(shè)備)onto the dusty floor near the mall entrance.

  “Of course I do,” I replied, fishing my wallet out of my coat pocket.Elsie and Monica, my two best friends, stood beside me.They were laughing their heads off!
