Question

7．Dear Max，
Your mother and I don't yet have the words to describe the hope you give us for the future．Your new life is full of promise，and we hope you will be happy and healthy so you can explore it fully．You've already given us a reason to reflect on the world we hope you live in．
Like all parents，we want you to grow up in a world better than ours today．While newspapers often focus on what's wrong，in many ways the world is getting better．Health is improving．The number of poor families is decreasing．Knowledge is growing．People are connecting．Technological progress in every field means your life should be much better than ours today．
We will do our part to make this happen，not only because we love you，but also because we have a responsibility to all children in the next generation．We believe all lives have equal value．Our society has its duty to improve the lives of all those coming into this world，not just those already here．
Today，most people die from five things-heart disease，cancer，stroke，neurodegenerative and infectious diseases-and we can make faster progress on these and other problems．Once we recognize that your generation and your children's generation may not have to suffer from disease，we collectively have a responsibility to increase our investments （投資） a bit more towards the future to make this reality．Your mother and I want to do our part．Curing disease will take time．Over short periods of five or ten years，it may not seem like we're making much of a difference．But over the long term，seeds planted now will grow，and one day，you or your children will see what we can only imagine：a world without suffering from disease．
There are so many opportunities just like this．If society focuses more of its energy on these great challenges，we will leave your generation a much better world．Our hopes for your generation focus on two ideas：advancing human potential （潛能） and equality．Our society must do this not only for justice or charity，but for the greatness of human progress．
Today your mother and I are devoted to spending our lives doing our small part to help solve these challenges．I，Zuckerberg，will continue to serve as Facebook's CEO for many，many years to come，but these things are too important to wait until you or we are older to begin this work．
We will give away 99% of our Facebook shares-now about 45dollar billion-during our lives to advance this mission．We know this is a small contribution compared to all the resources and talents of those already working on these matters．But we want to do what we can，working alongside many others．
As we become parents and enter this next chapter（篇章）of our lives，we w ant to share our deep appreciation for everyone who makes this possible．We can make progress towards these opportunities only by standing on the shoulders of experts．And we can only focus on serving this community and this mission because we are surrounded by loving family，supportive friends and amazing colleagues．We hope you will have such deep and inspiring relationships in your life too．
Max，we love you and feel a great re sponsibility to leave the world a better place for you and all child ren．We wish you a life filled with the same love，hope and joy you give us．We can't wait to see what you bring to this world．

Answer 1

分析 本文講述了Zuckerberg 在他的女兒出生后寫一封封信，信中表達了對女兒的愛以及對她未來的無限期盼，同時他又表述了他會捐贈自己的公司股份以促進疾病治療發(fā)展的想法．

解答 65．答案 C  推理判斷題．由第一段第二句 Your new life is full ofpromise，and we hope you will be happy and healthy so you can explore it fully 可以推斷，新生命的出現(xiàn)意味著這封信是 Zuckerberg 的女兒出生之后，由他寫給他的女兒的．故正確答案為C．
66．答案 C 細節(jié)理解題．由第二段第三四五六句 Health is improving．Thenumber of poor families is decreasing．Knowledge is growing．People areconnecting 可知，世界在人類健康改善、貧困家庭數(shù)量減少、知識進步、人們聯(lián)系更緊密等方面變得更好，因此排除A、B、D項．由第二段最后一句 Technological progress in every field means your life should bemuch better than ours today 可知，各個領(lǐng)域的技術(shù)都在進步，C項意為"幾乎沒有領(lǐng)域的技術(shù)取得進展"，不包含在世界變得更好的方式里面．故正確答案為C．
67．答案 D 細節(jié)理解題．由第四段第二三句 Once we recognize that yourgeneration and your children's generation may not have to suffer from disease，we collectively have a responsibility to increase our investments a bit moretowards the future to make this reality．Your mother and I want to do our part 可知，Zuckerberg 想增加投資是因為他想讓他的后代們不再遭受疾病的威脅．故正確答案為D．
68．答案 A 推理判斷題．由第五段第二句 If society focuses more ofits energy on these great challenges，we will leave your generation a muchbetter world 可知 Zuckerberg 對生活還是充滿了憧憬的；由第九段最后一句 We can't waitto see what you bring to this world 可知，他對后代的未來也是充滿了希望，表明他對生活的態(tài)度是積極的，向上的．故正確答案為A．
69．答案 A 推理判斷題．A項，由第四段第三句 Yourmother and I want to do our part 可知，Zuckerberg和他的妻子都想通過自己的能力為這個社會做一些貢獻，這體現(xiàn)出他們兩人鼓舞人心的精神和關(guān)系．故A項正確．B項，由第四段第五句 Overshort periods of five or ten years，it may not seem like we're making much of adifference 可知，此處信中表達的意思是疾病的克服難以在五到十年內(nèi)實現(xiàn)，但是并不是說人類五年內(nèi)無法有所成就．故B項錯誤．C項，由第三段最后一句 Oursociety has its duty to improve the lives of all those coming into this world，not just those already here 可知，社會不僅對現(xiàn)在的人負責，也需要對即將來到這個世界上的人負責．故C項錯誤．D項，由第四段第一句Today，most people die from five things-heart disease，cancer，stroke，neurodegenerative and infectiousdiseases-and we canmake faster progress on these and other problems 可知，信中表述"我們"有能力在這五種疾病上做出更快的進步，但并不是說已經(jīng)實現(xiàn)了更快的進步．故D項錯誤．故正確答案為A．
70．答案 D 主旨大意題．通讀全文可以發(fā)現(xiàn)，Zuckerberg 在他的女兒出生后寫了這封信，信中表達了他對女兒的愛以及對她未來的無限期盼，同時他又表述了他會捐贈自己的公司股份以促進疾病治療發(fā)展的想法．由最后一段第一句 Max，we love you and feel a great responsibility to leave the worlda better place for you and all children 可以總結(jié)推斷出，這封信是為了表達他的愛以及表述他未來的行動．故正確答案為D．

點評 閱讀理解是考查語篇理解能力．�？嫉念}型有：推理判斷題；主旨大意題；細節(jié)理解題；猜測詞意題．近幾年又出現(xiàn)了兩種新的考查方式：寫作態(tài)度判斷題和文章結(jié)構(gòu)題．解題時，在讀懂文章的基礎(chǔ)上，還有特別注意掌握題型的特征，尤其是細節(jié)題和推斷題不可混淆：細節(jié)題是文章信息的再現(xiàn)；推斷題是文章信息的提�。�本題是廣告類文章，考查主要是以細節(jié)題為主，細節(jié)題要注意常用的出題陷阱有：夸大，縮小，張冠李戴，偷梁換柱，無中生有等，做題時要看清看準．
