1．Christmas Eve was tomorrow．I hoped one of the packages that held a camera had already been placed under the Christmas tree．It was the only thing I wanted．I had been dropping hintsto my parents．I love taking photos．My bedroom walls are covered with photos I had taken with my mom's old camera．I'm always trying to capture（捕捉） those perfect moments in which you can hear the laughter or touch the beautiful scene，but my camera has always seemed to fall short．
I knew Mom had put a few presents under the tree this morning，so I went on a hunt in my mom's room．I opened the door and found my Christmas present was lying unwrapped on the floor-a big pink cat．I felt so disappointed．
Mom seemed to notice that，and she tried to cheer me up．"Stacy，I got your present today．I am so excited to surprise you!""I can't wait，"I said．The next day I couldn't wait any longer．I needed to tell her．
"Mom，may I talk to you for a second？"
"Sure，dear．What do you need to talk about？"she asked．
And so it came-how upset I was that I was getting a cat．
"Stacy，that cat is for your sister Julia!"she said with a smile．
"Then what am I getting？"I asked．
She just smiled．"You'll have to wait and see．"
Next morning，I happily got into the living room and sat next to the tree．I pulled out the box with my name on it and opened the wrapping paper to find…
My camera!"Thank you!"I said to both Dad and Mom．
Dad picked up the camera and took a picture of Julia，Mom and me．It has become one of my favorite pictures．Just on that Christmas morning，I took lots of photos with my camera-my little sister making a face，my parents giving me a soft smile-and all of these photos have come to mean one thing to me：LOVE．

21．The underlined phrase"dropping hints"in Paragraph 1meansC．
A．talking often B．sending presents C．suggesting indirectlyD．taking pictures
22．Why did Stacy feel disappointed at first？C
A．Her mother couldn't understand her at all．
B．Her mother didn't buy her any Christmas gift．
C．She mistook her sister's Christmas gift for hers．
D．She didn't find her present in her mom's room．
23．We can learn from the passage thatB．
A．her mother bought Stacy a big pink cat
B．her mother knew what gift Stacy wanted
C．Stacy thought it's OK to have an old camera
D．Stacy finally got her gift on Christmas Eve
24．What would be the best title for the passage？A
A．A Christmas gift as wished 
B．Love is more important than gifts
C．A wonderful Christmas
D．Love cannot be bought．

分析 本文主要講述了Stacy在圣誕節(jié)時(shí)想要一個(gè)禮物就是一部相機(jī)，可一次偶然的機(jī)會(huì)她看見了父母還沒有來得及包裝的禮物-粉紅的小貓玩具，她誤認(rèn)為是父母給她的禮物，她很失望，結(jié)果等到打開禮物時(shí)，一看是自己想要的相機(jī)，高興極了，于是她給家人拍了許多照片，她感覺她收到了父母的愛．

解答 21-24．CCBA
21．C 詞義猜測題．dropping hints暗示；根據(jù)上下文可知作者一直想要一個(gè)相機(jī)，總是暗示父母她的愿望．故選C．
22．C 細(xì)節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)第二段I opened the door and found my Christmas present was lying unwrapped on the floor-a big pink cat．I felt so disappointed．我打開門，發(fā)現(xiàn)我的圣誕禮物在地上，一只大的粉紅色的貓．我覺得很失望．她把給她的妹妹的禮物當(dāng)成是給自己的，因?yàn)樗胍氖窍鄼C(jī)而她看到的是一只粉紅色的小貓玩具，所以她很失望．故選C．
23．B 細(xì)節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)She just smiled．"You'll have to wait and see．"她的母親笑著說的，可知母親知道她想要什么禮物．故選B．
24．A 主旨大意題．整篇短文的大意主要圍繞禮物而展開的．故選A．

點(diǎn)評(píng) 人物故事類閱讀理解文章是高考英語�？疾牧现唬@類文章一般可分為人物傳記和短篇故事兩類．這兩類閱讀材料一般較長，即詞數(shù)多，而且命題也較多，特別是推理判斷題和事實(shí)細(xì)節(jié)題多．在做此類閱讀理解題時(shí)往往是材料看得懂，題目不好做的感覺．因此，在閱讀材料時(shí)要重點(diǎn)放在事情發(fā)展的過程和結(jié)果上，注意把握事件的發(fā)展進(jìn)程及人物之間的關(guān)系，細(xì)節(jié)與主題的關(guān)系，用以說明人物性格特點(diǎn)的事實(shí)、作者的態(tài)度等，這些內(nèi)容往往是推理判斷題的命題點(diǎn)．至于事實(shí)細(xì)節(jié)題的解答，同學(xué)們切忌想當(dāng)然或者憑印象，一定要找到文章中的原句，和題干進(jìn)行比較，再做出正確選擇．

6．The New York Times states that cheerleading is the fastest growing girls'sport，yet more than half of Americans do not believe it is a sport．In addition，they fail to distinguish between sideline cheerleaders and professional ones．Sideline cheerleaders'main goal is to entertain the crowd and lead them with team cheers，which should not be considered a sport．On the other hand，professional cheerleaders aim to compete．
    A sport，according to the Association of Cheerleading Coaches and Advisors，is a"physical activity against a competitor，governed by rules under which a winner is declared，and the primary purpose of the competition is a comparison of the relative skills of the participants．"Because cheerleading follows these guidelines，it is a sport．
Competitive cheerleading includes lots of physical activity．Like gymnasts，cheerleaders must learn to tumble （翻滾）．They perform standing back flips，round flip flops，and full layout twists．Cheerleaders also perform lifts and tosses．This is where the"fliers"are thrown in the air，held by"bases"in different positions that require strength and cooperation with other teammates．
    Just as basketball and football have guidelines for competitive play，so does competitive cheerleading．The whole routine has to be completed in less than three minutes and 15 seconds and the cheerleaders are required to stay within a certain area．
    Competitive cheerleaders'goal is to be the best．Just like gymnasts，they are awarded points for difficulty，technique，creativity and sharpness．The more difficult a mount or a stunt，the sharper and more in-sync the motions，the better the score．Cheerleading is a team sport so without cooperation and synchronization，first place is out of reach．
    So why do many Americans not think cheerleading is a sport？It cannot be because cheerleaders do not use bal ls or manipulate objects （if you do not count megaphones，pompoms and signs as objects）．Wrestling，swimming，diving，track，cross-country，gymnastics，ice-skating and boxing are recognized sports that do not use balls．Some people argue that cheerleaders are just"flirts in skirts"with their only job to entertain the crowd，but cheerleaders today compete against other squads and work just as hard as other athletes．
    Competitive cheerleading is a sport．It is a physical activity that is governed by rules under which a winner can be declared and its primary purpose is to compare the skills of participants．Hopefully，cheerleading will become as well-known a sport as football and basketball，and even appear in the Olympic s since cheerleaders are just as athletic and physically fit as those involved in the more accepted sports．
61．What is NOT the standard for sport according to the Association of Cheerleading Coaches and Advisors？C
A．Physical movement is required．
B．The number of participants is limited．
C．The aim of a sport is to beat the competitor．
D．A winner is finally decided after the competition．
62．The underlined word"synchronization"in Paragraph 5 probably meansC．
A．being creative in designing the movements
B．showing a challenging performance
C．doing the movement at the same time
D．setting a practical competitive goal
63．Gymnasts are mentioned in the passage toB．
A．explain the dangers of cheerleading
B．show their similarities with cheerleaders
C．suggest cheerleaders learn to do gymnastics
D．offer the guidelines of gymnastic movements
64．It can be learned from the passage that cheerleadingA．
A．is a good sport for all people
B．lacks necessary guidelines to follow
C．is more than a form of entertainment
D．enjoys greater popularity than other sports
65．This passage is written mainly toB
A．a(chǎn)ttract more girls to cheerleading
B．draw people's attention to cheerleading
C．call for more recognition o f competitive cheerleading as a sport
D．criticize some Americans who do not think cheerleading as a sport．
