Question

Once upon a time in a land far away, there was a wonderful old man who loved everything：animals, spiders, insects．
One day while walking through the woods, the nice old man found a cocoon（繭）of a butterfly．He took it home．A few days later, a small opening appeared; he sat and watched the butterfly for several hours as it struggled to force its body through that little hole．Then it seemed to stop making any progress．It appeared as if it had gotten as far as it could and it could go no farther．Then the man decided to help the butterfly, so he took a pair of scissors and cut off the remaining bit of the cocoon．
The butterfly then appeared easily．
But it had a swollen body and small, fragile wings．The man continued to watch the butterfly because he expected that, at any moment, the wings would enlarge and expand to be able to support the body, which would be smaller in time．Neither happened! In fact, the butterfly spent the rest of its life crawling （慢慢爬行）around with a swollen body and fragile wings．
It never was able to fly．
What the man in his kindness and hurry did not understand was that the limited cocoon and the struggle required for the butterfly to get through the tiny opening were Nature's way of forcing fluid from the body of the butterfly into its wings so that it would be ready for flight once it achieved its freedom from the cocoon．
Sometimes struggles are exactly what we need in our life．If we were allowed to go through our life without any obstacles and difficulties, it would disable us．We would not be as strong as what we could have been．And we could never fly．

【小題3】What is the implied meaning of the passage?

Answer 1

【小題1】C
【小題2】D
【小題3】B

解析試題分析：
【小題1】C 細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段2,3行the struggle required for the butterfly to get through the tiny opening were Nature's way of forcing fluid from the body of the butterfly into its wings說明它在老人的幫助下很容易就從蠶繭里出來，沒有能夠把身體里的液體排出來，導(dǎo)致身體太臃腫而無法飛行。故C項(xiàng)它沒有經(jīng)歷困難就出來了是不能飛行的主要原因。故C正確。
【小題2】D 推理題。根據(jù)文章最后兩段的評(píng)論可知這實(shí)際上是一篇哲理小故事，告訴我們?nèi)松�就是需要奮斗的。故D正確，是關(guān)于哲理的小事情。
【小題3】B 推理題。根據(jù)文章最后一段If we were allowed to go through our life without any obstacles and difficulties, it would disable us．We would not be as strong as what we could have been．And we could never fly．說明在我們的人生中障礙和困難是人生的財(cái)富，因?yàn)橛辛怂麄�，才讓我們走向成功，故B正確。
考點(diǎn)：考查哲理類短文閱讀
點(diǎn)評(píng)：文章講述了一個(gè)哲理小故事。一個(gè)老人好心幫助蜻蜓從蠶繭里出來，結(jié)果因?yàn)槿鄙倭硕窢?zhēng)的過程，這只蜻蜓無法飛行，告訴我們?nèi)松�就是一個(gè)結(jié)論困難的過程，不經(jīng)歷困難，我們就無法取得成功。閱讀本文要對(duì)文章有一個(gè)總體的把握，要清楚點(diǎn)明白本文的中心思想，不然就會(huì)謬以千里。本文的考查以推理題為主，要求考生在閱讀時(shí)準(zhǔn)確定位考查要點(diǎn)，仔細(xì)辨析做出準(zhǔn)確的判斷。
