Question

I have a friend named Monty Roberts. He has let me use his horse ranch(養(yǎng)馬場)to put on events to raise money for youth at risk programs.
Last time I was there he introduced me by saying, “I want to tell you why I let you use my house. It all goes back to a story about a young man who was the son of an itinerant(流動的)horse trainer. When he was a senior, he was asked to write a paper about what he wanted to be when he grew up.”
“That night he wrote a seven-page paper describing his goal of owning a horse ranch someday. He put all his heart into the project and wrote about his dream in great detail. He even drew a diagram of a 200-acre ranch, showing the location of the buildings, stables and the track, and even a detailed floor plan for a 4000-square-foot house on it.”
“The next day he handed it in to his teacher. Two days later ,he received a large red “F” on his paper with a note, ‘See me after class.’ The boy went to see the teacher and asked why. The teacher told him there was no way for a young boy like him to do that because owning a horse ranch required much money and resources, and then added ‘If you’ll rewrite his paper with a more realistic goal, I will reconsider your grade.’”
“The boy went home and thought about it long and hard. He asked his father what to do. His father said, ‘Look, son, you have to make up your own mind on this. However, I think it’s a very important decision for you.’”
“Finally, a week later, the boy turned in the same paper without any change and stated, ‘You can keep the F and I’ll keep my dream.’”
“I tell you this story because you are sitting in my 4000-square-foot house in the middle of my 200-acre horse ranch. I still have that school paper framed over the fireplace.”
Don’t let anyone steal your dreams. Follow your heart, no matter what.

小題1:B 
小題2:A
小題3:A
小題4:D
小題5:C 

試題分析：
小題1: 從第四段最后一句 ‘If you’ll rewrite his paper with a more realistic goal, I will reconsider your grade.’可以看出老師認為他最初寫下的理想不切實際。
小題2:從第五段父親說的話you have to make up your own mind on this. However, I think it’s a very important decision for you可以得知男孩決定要堅持他的夢想。
小題3:從倒數(shù)第二段A“I tell you this story because you are sitting in my 4000-square-foot house in the middle of my 200-acre horse ranch. I still have that school paper framed over the fireplace.”可得知那個男孩就是Monty自己。
小題4:從第五段父親所說的話可以看出是男孩自己已經(jīng)決定要堅持他的夢想，父親只是鼓勵他堅持，故選Ｄ，Ａ答案是顯而易見的，男孩寫下的理想肯定是他感興趣的Ｂ答案在第四段最后一句老師說的話有體現(xiàn)Ｃ倒數(shù)第二段提到那馬場就是男孩的，說明他的理想實現(xiàn)了�！�
小題5:綜合全文尤其是最后一段可得出作者的寫作意圖是鼓勵人們堅持他們的夢想。
點評：本文講述我的朋友Ｍonty自小堅持被認為是不切實際的夢想：建一個4000平方英尺的大牧場，最后他的夢想得以實現(xiàn)。這個故事告訴我們：不要讓別人偷走了我們的夢想，無論如何都要堅持我們的夢想。對于文章中的細節(jié)題，要注意文章中的細節(jié)的理解。推斷題測試考生在閱讀基礎(chǔ)上的邏輯推理能力，要求考生根據(jù)文章所述事件的邏輯關(guān)系，對未說明的趨勢或結(jié)局作出合理的推斷；或根據(jù)作者所闡述的觀點理論，對文章未涉及的現(xiàn)象、事例給以解釋�？忌�首先要仔細閱讀短文，完整了解信息，準(zhǔn)確把握作者觀點。
