When Joe was about to start school, all signs pointed to success. Yet things turned out to be quite 36 . The fourth grade even found him at the 37  of the class. Joe struggled day and night, but it did not 38  —until one stormy afternoon.
On that afternoon,   39 the math teacher started to introduce difficult concepts, dark clouds
covered the sky, and the storm set in. Hard though she tried to make the kid,   40 , the thunder won the battle for their attention. No one  41 the concepts. Except for Joe. He understood them and answered all the questions correctly. The teacher patted him on the back, and told him to go around to the others and explain how he had managed it.   42 by his newfound success, Joe moved quickly throughout the room. Soon math time was followed by the time for 43 . All children naturally drew 44 pictures on such a day. Except for Joe.
Since then, Joe started 45 . Though he never made it to the top, his math teacher was always 46 and curious about the change: Why had that stormy day changed Joe?
On the day Joe graduated, he presented the teacher with his most 47  possession—the picture of a bright yellow sun. On the picture Joe had written: This is the day I  48 my brightness.

解析【文章大意】本文是一篇記敘文。講述了Joe雖然曾是個(gè)好學(xué)生,但是突然情況急轉(zhuǎn)直下,雖然他努力過,但是沒有成效。一場雷雨卻改變了Joe的學(xué)習(xí)軌跡。在別的同學(xué)不能集中注意力的情況下,Joe卻掌握了老師講的所有的概念,于是老師鼓勵(lì)他給同學(xué)們講解他是如何做到這一點(diǎn)的。在一個(gè)陰雨天,Joe卻看到了希望的陽光,而充滿陽光的畫也成了他最珍貴的記憶。最后一段點(diǎn)出文章主旨大意。
【小題1】利用上下文語境。根據(jù)上文all signs pointed to success, 和yet可知情況發(fā)生了變化,不是朝向成功的方向,而是令人失望,所以選擇C。
【小題2】利用上下文的語境。如果能確定36題答案,確定本題答案難度不大。因?yàn)榍闆r是令人失望的,可知Joe的成績在班里是排在最后,所以答案選擇bottom, at the bottom of意為“在…底部”。
【小題3】把握句內(nèi)的邏輯關(guān)系。本句中Joe struggled day and night說明他很努力,后面的but提示雖然努力了,但是沒有見效(work),所以答案為B.
【小題4】把握句子間的邏輯關(guān)系。本句中表達(dá)的是在數(shù)學(xué)老師解釋概念的時(shí)候發(fā)生的事情,所以用as引導(dǎo)時(shí)間狀語從句,所以選擇as。
【小題5】把握句子間的邏輯關(guān)系。根據(jù)the thunder won the battle for their attention可知雷聲吸引了學(xué)生的注意力,也就是學(xué)生們不能集中注意 (concentrate),所以答案選擇A。
【小題6】根據(jù)上下文推斷。上句中說到學(xué)生不能把注意力集中在老師講的內(nèi)容上,所以沒有人能夠掌握那些概念。challenged挑戰(zhàn); grasped 掌握;doubted 懷疑;admitted 承認(rèn)。根據(jù)上下文推斷,答案為B。
【小題7】根據(jù)生活常識和上下文推斷。上句中提到只有Joe能正確回答這些問題,所以老師拍拍他的背,讓他向同學(xué)解釋他是怎樣做到的。本句中說的是Joe受到鼓勵(lì),在教室里來回穿梭。由此確定答案為C。
【小題8】根據(jù)上下文語境。下句中all children drew pictures可知數(shù)學(xué)課之后是美術(shù)課。所以答案為C。
【小題9】根據(jù)上下文推斷。在下一個(gè)段落中的the picture of a bright yellow sun,以及except for Joe可知?jiǎng)e的孩子畫的都是暗淡顏色的畫,只有Joe的畫是明亮的。bright是解題的關(guān)鍵,所以答案為B。
【小題10】利用上下文的語境。本文在講述Joe的轉(zhuǎn)變過程。前面提到的是Joe 的成績是disappointing,而這里在講Joe開始轉(zhuǎn)變,開始提高,所以選擇A。
【小題11】把握句內(nèi)的邏輯關(guān)系。本題的解題關(guān)鍵是空后的連詞and和curious, 根據(jù)and可知要填空的詞和后面的curious同義概念的詞,所以選擇amazed,意為又吃驚又好奇,所以選擇B。
【小題12】利用上下文語境。做好本題的關(guān)鍵是通讀全文,才能悟出答案的意義。這幅充滿金色陽光的畫,對于Joe 來講是十分珍貴的,因?yàn)樗淖兞薐oe的學(xué)習(xí)軌跡。所以答案為D。
【小題13】利用上下文的語境。上文中已經(jīng)談到這幅畫是Joe的珍藏,那么可知在圖畫上他所寫的字是:這是我見到光明的日子。wake up to 意識到;put up with 忍受;get on with 和…友好相處;look down upon 看不起。鑒于此,答案為A。
