Question

【題目】 It was back in 2014. I learned I needed an operation to remove the tumor (腫瘤). Hearing the word “cancer” was the first shock, but knowing the surgeon would have to cut the front of my neck open was a lot to swallow. I was relieved to learn that thyroid (甲狀腺) cancer can be treated if caught early, but 1 wasn’t thrilled it would mean a lifelong scar front and center on my neck.

Back at home, I looked at my reflection in the mirror. I admired my neck, running my finger across a delicate gold chain I wore. Then came a tiny voice, “Mommy!” My then five year -old son. Jack, appeared in the mirror behind me. Our reflection was a big reality check. See, my son didn’t know I had been diagnosed (診斷) with the Big C, or that I was having an operation. I patiently explained my condition to him and told him I would have a scar on my neck after the operation.

I never had any intentions of hiding the scar. I didn’t want my son to think my scar was something to be ashamed of. I was his role model and I needed to set a good example. Bad things can happen, but it’s how you deal with them that matters.

The operation was successful. The recovery process, bearing it all, in the grocery store, out to dinner with family and on the summer camp pickup line, made me realize, if I could get through this phase (階段),I could bear the scar of survival forever. The scar proves I looked at fear in the face and won.

People will ask about my scar even though it’s a very thin. dull line five years later. That means I have the chance to educate others about thyroid cancer and how they should. self-check their necks and remind their doctors to do the same, at yearly physicals. To me, the scar is like a superhero stamp.

【解析】

本文是一篇記敘文。講述了一位媽媽在手術(shù)后勇敢面對(duì)頸部傷疤的故事。

【1】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段中I was relieved to learn that thyroid (甲狀腺) cancer can be treated if caught early, but 1 wasn’t thrilled it would mean a lifelong scar front and center on my neck.可知得知甲狀腺癌如果早期發(fā)現(xiàn)是可以治療的，我松了一口氣，但我并不感到興奮，因?yàn)檫@意味著我脖子前面和中間會(huì)有一輩子的傷疤。由此可知，作者在手術(shù)前擔(dān)心她的脖子會(huì)看起來很丑。故選A。

【2】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段中I didn’t want my son to think my scar was something to be ashamed of. I was his role model and I needed to set a good example.可知我不想讓我的兒子覺得我的傷疤是件丟臉的事。我是他的榜樣，我需要樹立一個(gè)好榜樣。由此可知，作者決定勇敢地面對(duì)現(xiàn)實(shí)，因?yàn)樗�想給她的兒子樹立一個(gè)好榜樣。故選C。

【3】推理判斷題。根據(jù)第四段最后一句The scar proves I looked at fear in the face and won.可知傷疤證明了我直面恐懼，并且勝利了。由此可推知，作者戰(zhàn)勝了對(duì)傷疤的恐懼，因此可以推斷出恢復(fù)過程中作者所做的事情是很有意義的。故選D。

【4】推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段最后一句To me, the scar is like a superhero stamp.可知對(duì)我來說，這個(gè)傷疤就像超級(jí)英雄的印章。由此可以推斷出 她為自己所做的感到自豪。故選B。

隱含意義推理判斷題。這類題的題干中常含有：infer/suggest/imply/conclude/intend/purpose/be likely to等標(biāo)志性詞語(yǔ)。解決這類問題時(shí)要理解文章潛在的含義和作者所給的提示。同時(shí)，要對(duì)文章的含義和作者的暗示作出合理的猜測(cè)和推斷。如第四小題，根據(jù)最后一段最后一句To me, the scar is like a superhero stamp.可知對(duì)我來說，這個(gè)傷疤就像超級(jí)英雄的印章。由此可以推斷出 她為自己所做的感到自豪。故選B。
