Question

【題目】Little stream(小河） ran down from a high mountain through many villages and forests. Then it reached a desert. “I went through so many difficulties.I should have no problem crossing the desert,” she thought. As she started, she found herself slowly disappearing(消失)into the sand. After many tries, she still failed. “Maybe I can’t reach the ocean,” she said sadly to herself.

At this time, a deep voice said, “If a breeze(微風(fēng))can cross the desert,so can a river.” It was the voice of the desert. But the little stream answered, “That’s because a breeze can fly, but I cannot.”

“That’s because you stick to what you are. Let yourself evaporate(蒸發(fā))into the breeze, and it can take you across,” said the desert. “Give up what I am now? No!No!” The little stream could not accept this idea. “The breeze can carry the vapor(蒸汽)across the desert and let it leave as rain. The rain will form a river again,” said the desert. “And whether you’re a river or vapor, your nature never changes.” Hearing this,the little stream went into the open arms of breeze. It carried her to the next stage of her life.

The course of our lives is like the experience of the little stream. If you want to go through difficulties in your life to head for success, you should also change the way you are sometimes.

【解析】

試題分析：本文講述的是一條小河在過沙漠時(shí)遇到了困難，然后在沙漠的建議下，改變了自己的形態(tài)，變成了水蒸氣，在風(fēng)的幫助下，最后穿過了沙漠。并把這一過程與人生進(jìn)行了比較。如果你想通過你生活中的困難，走向成功，你也應(yīng)該改變你的方式。

【1】D細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文的第一段可知小河是想穿過沙漠的，排除C項(xiàng)；根據(jù)小河自己的話“I went through so many difficulties.I should have no problem crossing the desert”可知小河經(jīng)歷了許多困難，通過沙漠應(yīng)該沒問題，也就是說小河是相信自己的，所以排除A項(xiàng)和B項(xiàng)。故選D。

【2】D 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文中第二段At this time, a deep voice said, “If a breeze(微風(fēng))can cross the desert,so can a river.” It was the voice of the desert.可知沙漠在鼓舞小河。故選D。

【3】B 詞義猜測題。根據(jù)短文中第三段“That’s because you stick to what you are. Let yourself evaporate(蒸發(fā))into the breeze, and it can take you across,” said the desert.可知沙漠說“那是因?yàn)槟銏?jiān)持你的樣子。讓你自己蒸發(fā)到微風(fēng)里，然后它可以帶你穿過沙漠。”再根據(jù)后文在沙漠的建議下，小河改變了自己的形態(tài)，變成了水蒸氣，在風(fēng)的幫助下，最后穿過了沙漠。由這些信息可知stick to意為堅(jiān)持。故選B。

【4】C主旨大意題。A項(xiàng)是放棄你所擁有的；B項(xiàng)是如何穿越沙漠；D項(xiàng)是小河和沙漠。這篇短文主要講述的是一條小河在過沙漠時(shí)遇到了困難，然后在沙漠的建議下，改變了自己的形態(tài)，變成了水蒸氣，在風(fēng)的幫助下，最后穿過了沙漠。進(jìn)而延伸出人生也是如此。所以改變意味著成功應(yīng)為最佳選項(xiàng)。故選C。
