Question

【題目】 Name-calling, teasing, pushing and fighting—whether you have experienced it or not, the chances are that these are the things that appear in your mind when you hear the word “bullying”. Yet, many of us know little about the serious, lasting harms bullying could cause.

If you’ve watched 13 Reasons Why, you’ll understand the impacts that bullying can have. The second season of the popular US teenage drama was released on May 18. It tells the story of Hannah Baker, a high school student who takes her own life after she’s picked on by fellow students, while others stand by and do nothing to help her.

One of the important messages audiences could get from the show is to treat people with kindness and respect. “It teaches us that every single thing we say and do has an impact on others,” news platform Odyssey noted.

Some may think 13 Reasons Why exaggerates (夸大) the seriousness of school bullying, but according to the US National Center for Educational Statistics, more than 20 percent of US students were bullied in 2016, and only 36% of this group reported it.

NBA player Gerald Green opened up about being called “alien hands” during his teenage years due to his big hands. “Being bullied was embarrassing,” he said. “I still remember shying away from crowds and walking around with my hands in my pockets to evade the attention from my peers.” To get away with the teasing, he found his motivation by playing basketball and making a career out of it. But not everyone is so lucky to discover a release.

According to statistics released by the US government, if someone prevents a bully, there’s a 57% chance that the bullying will stop within 10 seconds. So if you ever witness bullying, consider stepping up and supporting the victim. As US actor Brandon Flynn, who stars in 13 Reasons Why, said, “Just because you’re not the one getting bullied, it doesn’t mean it’s not your problem.”

Answer 1

【答案】

【1】B

【2】D

【3】C

【4】C

【解析】

這是一篇說明文。文章通過借助一部流行的美國青年電視劇中的例子、美國國家教育統(tǒng)計中心的統(tǒng)計數(shù)據(jù)以及NBA的杰拉德·格林的例子，讓大家感受到學(xué)校暴力事件的嚴(yán)重性，并呼吁大家遇到暴力事件要及時制止。

【1】推理判斷題。由文章最后一段中的“if someone prevents a bully, there’s a 57% chance that the bullying will stop within 10 seconds.（如果有人阻止暴力，有57%的可能性，這場暴力事件在10秒鐘內(nèi)會停止）”及“So if you ever witness bullying, consider stepping up and supporting the victim.（如果你目睹了一場暴力事件，考慮站出來幫助一下受害者）”可知，在這段中，作者呼吁大家看到暴力事件時采取行動。故選B。

【2】細節(jié)理解題。由文章第三段中的“but according to the US National Center for Educational Statistics, more than 20 percent of US students were bullied in 2016, and only 36% of this group reported it.（但是根據(jù)美國國家教育統(tǒng)計中心的統(tǒng)計數(shù)據(jù)，20%多的學(xué)生在2016年受到過暴力事件，但是其中只有36%的學(xué)生報告了其所遭遇的暴力事件）”可知，在遭受暴力的群體中，很多人沒有尋求幫助。故選D。

【3】詞義猜測題。劃線單詞所在句子的句意為“我一直記得躲避大群的同學(xué)，走路時把手插進口袋躲避同齡人的注意力”。其中的“shy away from crowds”與“evade the attention from my peers”是同義詞，都是躲避大家，不引起他們注意力的意思。A. Attract吸引；B. Focus集中注意力；C. Avoid避免，回避；D. Keep保持。故選C。

【4】細節(jié)理解題。由第二段中的“If you’ve watched 13 Reasons Why, you’ll understand the impacts that bullying can have.（如果你看了十三個原因，你就會理解暴力的影響。）”以及這一段中講述的十三個原因第二季中的高中生被刁難后自殺的故事，我們可以知道這是一部關(guān)于學(xué)校暴力的影視劇。故選C。

猜測詞義題在高考中有三種考查形式：生詞猜測詞義或熟詞生義、猜測一句話的意思、指代關(guān)系猜詞（代詞或者名詞）。從近三年考查形勢看，三種考查方式同等重要。本文中考查的是生詞猜測詞義。這種題型的解法主要是在生詞前后找到其釋義句或釋義詞。例如本文劃線句子中的and表示前后是并列關(guān)系，那么其中的“shy away from crowds”與“evade the attention from my peers”就是同義詞，都是躲避大家，不引起他們注意力的意思。故選C。本題猜出意思即可解出答案。有的題目根據(jù)釋義句猜測出劃線單詞意思后，還需要將選項代入劃線單詞處看主謂賓搭配是否合理。
