题文

There’s a body of water in Israel that is actually below a level. Water constantly runs into it, but, becau of the law of gravity (万有引力定律)，nothing can flow out of it. Do you know the name of this famous lake? It’s called the Dead Sea. It’s called this becau no living thing could live there. The water is almost dead, compared to what happens with “living water”.When you think of the term “living water”, the image that comes to mind is a rushing river that is flowing. It’s filled with life and movement. It doesn’t just “receive”, but is also “giving” simultaneously.Many of us believe that we need to receive more of something in order to be happy. Whether what we desire is money or something el, we think we need more of it in order to be fulfilled.As a result, we begin to operate in fear and therefore don’t give anything becau we’re afraid that we won’t have enough. The result? Like the Dead Sea, we become lifeless. Life is meant to flow. when a pool stops flowing, it becomes stagnant(停滞的). Stagnant water breeds dia and death. It can’t breathe. It can’t receive any more. If nothing is flowing out, there’s no room for anything el to come in.The solution? Give. As you give, you’ll receive. It’s a universal law. You e it at work everywhere. we’ve somehow been deceived （ 欺骗 ）into believing that if we don’t give, we’ll have more. Or we’re afraid that if we do give, we won’t have anything left. On one hand, this ems to make n. But it doesn’t work. Becau when we don’t give, we shut off the flow of what’s coming in.小题1:What is the first paragraph mainly about?A．The development of the Dead SeaB．The special character of the Dead SeaC．The position of the Dead SeaD．The prent situation of the Dead Sea小题2:According to the passage, people wouldn’t like to give becau________.A．they are really poor in fact B．they don’t know how to giveC．they don’t know who to give D．they are still not satisfied小题3:According to the passage, if you refu to give, you will___________.A．be like a pool with stagnant waterB．have enough space for what you’ll receiveC．need something more to be satisfiedD．do everything according to the law小题4:What would be the best title for the passage?A．Give and you’ll receiveB．The cret of the Dead aC．A universal lawD．come in and come out 题型：未知难度：其他题型

答案

小题1:B小题2:D小题3:A小题4:A

解析

本文讲述了生活中不能仅仅只是接收别人的馈赠，也要为别人付出，否则没有交流的生活会变得死气沉沉。。小题1:推断题，通过阅读第一段可知死海周围没有活着的生物，这是它的特性。故选B。小题2:推断题，根据第四段第一句“As a result, we begin to operate in fear and therefore don’t give anything becau we’re afraid that we won’t have enough.”结果，我们开始恐惧继而不给别人任何东西，因为我们害怕自己没有足够的东西。由此可知人们总是不满足与自己所拥有的，不想给别人一丝一毫。故选D。小题3:细节题。根据第四段中“Life is meant to flow. when a pool stops flowing, it becomes stagnant(停滞的).”生活原本是流动的。当一个池塘停止流动时，它就变成一滩死水了。由此可知如果生活也停止交流了，也就变成一滩死水，没有活力了。故选A。小题4:主旨题，第二段最后两句“ It’s filled with life and movement. It doesn’t just “receive”, but is also “giving” simultaneously.”把它用于生活和运动之中。它就不只是收获，还有给予。这两句是主旨。故选A。

生活感悟类阅读解题指导：

一、文章特点： 生活感悟类的文章就是指能给人心灵以启迪，使人从中受到教育的文章。这类文章的体裁可以是记叙文，如生活中一些感人故事或情感故事，有点类似心灵鸡汤一样的短文。有时故事的结尾会有一句“点睛之笔”，点出全文的中心思想，就像《伊索寓言》里的寓言一样。还可能是夹叙夹议的哲理散文或生活随笔。散文随笔通常会阐述一种朴素易懂，耳熟能详的人生道理或宝贵品质。文章的结构和议论文类似，一般是总分总或总分结构。每段首句或尾句为主题句（论点），其它句子围绕主题展开论述（论据），论证方法多种多样，或举例，或引用名言，或正反对照等。二、解题技巧：针对生活感悟类文章的特点，做这类文章的完形填空时，要特别注意以下几点：1、重点理解全文的首句。如果是记叙文，找出when，where，who，what等基本要素。如果是散文随笔，充分理解文章的中心句—全文的主题。2、阅读全文的结尾段或结尾句，有助于理解文章所阐述或蕴含的哲理、感悟或忠告等。3、调动自己的背景知识和情感。这类文章不会讲大道理也不会涉及到一些很专业的知识技术领域，而是谈一些小事和简单的道理，所以如果读者能和作者产生感情上的共鸣，读者会更好地把握作者的意图态度，从而提高做题的准确度。因此，考生在平时要做一个有心人，即用心去感悟生活中发生的小事，思考人生的一些基本道理，多阅读一些短小精悍的美文，多写写自己的心情故事和对生活学习的感悟。只有平时多用心，做题时才能调动自己的背景知识和情感。
