题文

Perhaps you think you could easily add to your happiness with more money. Strange as it may em, if you're unsatisfied, the issue is not a lack of means to meet your desires but a lack of desires—not that you cannot satisfy your tastes but that you don't have enough tastes. Real riches consist of well-developed and hearty capacities (能力)  to enjoy life.  Most people are already swamped(淹没) with things. They eat, wear, go and talk too much. They live in too big a hou with too many rooms, yet their hou of life is a hut. Your hou of life ought to be a mansion (豪宅) , a royal palace.  Every new taste, every additional interest, every fresh enthusiasm adds a room.  Here are veral rooms your hou of life should have. Art should be a desire for you to develop simply becau the world is full of beautiful things. If you only understood how to enjoy them and feed your spirit on them, they would make you as happy as to find plenty of ham and eggs when you're hungry. Literature, classic literature, is a beautiful, richly furnished room where you might find many an hour of rest and refreshment. To gain that love would go toward making you a rich person, for a rich person is not someone who has a library but who likes a library. Music like Mozart's and Bach's shouldn't be abnt. Real riches are of the spirit. And when you've brought that spirit up to where classical music feeds it and makes you a little drunk, you have incread your thrills and bettered them. And life is a matter of thrills. Sports, without which you remain poor, mean a lot in life. No matter who you are, you would be more human, and your hou of life would be better supported against the had days, if you could, and did, play a bit. Whatever rooms you might add to your hou of life, the cret of enjoying life is to keep adding.小题1:The author intends to tell us that____________.A．true happiness lies in achieving wealth by fair meansB．big hous are people's most valued posssionsC．big hous can in a n bring richness of lifeD．true happiness comes from spiritual riches小题2:The underlined ntence in the cond paragraph probably implies that__________.A．however materially rich, they never em to be satisfiedB．however materially rich, they remain spiritually poorC．though their hou is big, they prefer a simple lifeD．though their hou is big, it ems to be a cage小题3:It can be learned from the passage that __________.A．more money brings more happinessB．art is needed to make your hou beautifulC．literature can enrich your spiritual lifeD．sports contribute mainly to your physical fitness小题4:What would be the best title for the passage?A．Hou of LifeB．Secret of WealthC．Rest and RefreshmentD．Interest and Enthusiasm 题型：未知难度：其他题型

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。
