Question

【題目】 On weekends, Olga Belka always does the same thing. It is under water where she creates her paintings.

Olga Belka is a famous Russian artist who is very popular. Now she lives in Thailand. She is good at diving（潛水）. She likes drawing, too. She always draws sea animals while she is under water. She often needs two to six dives to finish a picture. It takes her about two hours to dive every time. The drawing materials she uses are specially made, and they do not pollute the sea. Each of her unusual pictures is an artwork.

Olga started underwater painting because she wanted to catch the beauty of life under the waves. She has created some truly unique pictures. They are very different and unusual. Olga ever said that sea is a source of inspiration（靈感）. So she wants to share the underwater beauty with the world by drawing pictures. The time she spends under the sea is the best time. She enjoys herself under the sea.

But if you want to buy one of her pictures, you will pay as much as $ 3,000. It is very expensive. If you want to make your weekends meaningful, you can accompany Olga to draw pictures under the sea. It would cost you $ 100 to spend a day painting with Olga underwater. Earlier this year, Olga held an exhibition of her works of art, where she showed her magical creations.

【解析】

本文是一篇說明文。主要介紹了俄羅斯畫家——奧爾加·貝爾卡。她擅長在水下為海洋動(dòng)物作畫。她與眾不同的畫作，每幅都需要進(jìn)行2到6次兩小時(shí)的潛水才能完成。

【1】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段第三至五句She is good at diving（潛水）. She likes drawing, too. She always draws sea animals while she is under water可知，她擅長潛水，也喜歡作畫，她經(jīng)常在水下畫海洋動(dòng)物。故選B。

【2】詞義猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)第三段第三句They are very different and unusual“他們是非常不同和不同尋常的”可推測(cè)出，劃線單詞的意思是特別的。故選A。

【3】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段第一句But if you want to buy one of her pictures, you will pay as much as $ 3,000可知，需要支付3000美元。故選D。

【4】推理判斷題。根據(jù)She is good at diving（潛水）. She likes drawing, too可知，她擅長潛水，只是提及他喜歡畫畫，并未提及她擅長畫畫，排除A；根據(jù)She often needs two to six dives to finish a picture. It takes her about two hours to dive every time可知，每次潛水花費(fèi)她2小時(shí)，完成一幅畫需要潛水2至6次，排除B；根據(jù)She has created some truly unique pictures. They are very different and unusual可知，她的畫與眾不同，排除D；根據(jù)So she wants to share the underwater beauty with the world by drawing pictures可知，她想和人們分享水下世界的美景，因此可推知人們能夠通過她的畫作看到水下世界的美景。故選C。

【5】標(biāo)題歸納題。根據(jù)On weekends, Olga Belka always does the same thing. It is under water where she creates her paintings“在周末，奧爾加·貝爾卡總是做相同的事情，在水下創(chuàng)造她的畫作”以及下文可知，主要介紹的是一位俄羅斯畫家喜歡在水下作畫的故事。故選A。

解答詞義猜測(cè)題時(shí)，可以使用如下技巧：1、根據(jù)上下文來猜測(cè)詞義；2、通過同義詞或近義詞來猜測(cè)詞義；3、通過構(gòu)詞法來猜測(cè)詞義；4、通過定義或釋義來猜測(cè)詞義；5、通過句法功能來猜測(cè)詞義；6、通過轉(zhuǎn)折和因果關(guān)系來猜測(cè)詞義；7. 通過生活常識(shí)來猜測(cè)詞義。對(duì)于這類題采取“代入法”也非常有效，即將備選答案逐一代入文中，哪一個(gè)選項(xiàng)能使句子的意思通順、連貫，且與上下文的內(nèi)容一致，哪一個(gè)選項(xiàng)就是該題的正確答案。

例如第2題。根據(jù)第三段第三句They are very different and unusual“他們是非常不同和不同尋常的”可推測(cè)出，劃線單詞的意思是特別的。故選A。
