20.Students all over Canada know that there are awards that they can apply for,but many of them do not know how many are out there.We will learn a bit more about these awards and find out what to do in order to apply.
Many awards are focused on a particular type of study that a student is taking.There are a lot of awards of this kind and they are offered by a lot of Canadian organizations.
Making the decision of what award to look into is another issue that students are unsure about.The guidance counselors (顧問) that are employed by the school can also help you determine the things that will be necessary for you to do.
Using the Internet can be another great way to find out about what awards are available.Many resources offer applications that are able to be completed right from the website.This can make the process(過程) a great deal faster,which can mean a lot to those in need of assistance.
Preparing all of the information that you need for filling out the forms beforehand is a good idea.This can take a lot of stress off this situation and you will not be running around to look for things because you are not prepared ahead of time.The less interruptions there are,the easier the process will be.
Not all of the awards are based on sports or academics.Many are available to students who are at a disadvantage of some sort due to a particular disability that they may have.Others are based only on where a person is from.Taking time to find out about the choices is important if you want to be sure to apply for all that you qualify (具備合格條件) for.
Many students greatly appreciate the help that these things bring them.Education costs are very high,and any financial help can reduce the stress of finances that a great many people have.

29.What can we learn from Paragraph 3?A
A.Many students don't know which award to choose.
B.When filling out the forms,you should ask for help.
C.Many students don't know how many awards there are.
D.Students can pay the guidance counselors to fill in the forms.
30.The underlined word"beforehand"in Paragraph 5 means"D".
A.systematically        B.quickly        C.in particular     D.in advance
31.What do we know about the awards in Canada?B
A.They are available on the Internet.
B.A disabled student can apply for some awards.
C.They can help reduce teachers'financial stress.
D.There are awards intended for guidance counselors.
32.From the last paragraph,the author mainly wants to showB.
A.the high cost of education
B.the importance of the awards
C.the financial stress on students
D.the types of the awards.

分析 短文主要講了加拿大學(xué)校申請獎學(xué)金的各種途徑,通過獎學(xué)金可以減輕一些學(xué)生上學(xué)的經(jīng)濟(jì)壓力.

解答 29.A,細(xì)節(jié)理解題.從該段可知很多學(xué)生不知道選擇何種獎學(xué)金,因此學(xué)校有顧問供學(xué)生咨詢,故答案為A.
30.D,詞義猜測題.根據(jù)第五段第二句話可知"這可減少你由于沒有提前準(zhǔn)備好而四處找東西的壓力."故可推斷畫線單詞應(yīng)該有"事先準(zhǔn)備"的含義,答案為D.
31.B,細(xì)節(jié)理解題.由第六段第二句Many are available to students who are at a disadvantage of some sort due to a particular disability that they may have.可知選B項(xiàng).
32.B,推理判斷題.作者在最后一段指出由于教育方面的支出很高,獎學(xué)金會幫助學(xué)生減輕一些經(jīng)濟(jì)壓力,對此他們很感激,由此可以看出獎學(xué)金的重要性,故選B項(xiàng).

點(diǎn)評 解答任務(wù)型閱讀理解題,首先對原文材料迅速瀏覽,掌握全文的主旨大意.因?yàn)殚喿x理解題一般沒有標(biāo)題,所以,速讀全文,抓住中心主旨很有必要,在速讀的過程中,應(yīng)盡可能多地捕獲信息材料.其次,細(xì)讀題材,各個擊破.掌握全文的大意之后,細(xì)細(xì)閱讀每篇材料后的問題,弄清每題要求后,帶著問題,再回到原文中去尋找、捕獲有關(guān)信息.最后,要善于抓住每段的主題句,閱讀時,要有較強(qiáng)的針對性.對于捕獲到的信息,要做認(rèn)真分析,仔細(xì)推敲,理解透徹,只有這樣,針對題目要求,才能做到穩(wěn)、準(zhǔn).

8."Let's have a journey.Why not fly out and meet me,Dad?"I say one day.
My father had just retired after 27 years as a manager for IBM.His job filled his day,his thoughts,and his life.While he woke up and took a warm shower,I screamed under a freezing waterfall in Peru.While he tied a tie and put on the same Swiss watch,I rowed a boat across Lake of the Ozarks.
My father sees me drifting aimlessly,nothing to show for my 33 years but a passport full of funny stamps.He wants me to settle down,but now I want him to find an adventure.
He agrees to travel with me through the national parks.We meet four weeks later in Rapid City.
"What's our first stop?"asks my father.
"What time is it?"
"Still don't have a watch?"
Less than an hour away is Mount Rushmore.As he stares up at the four Presidents carved in granite(花崗巖),his mouth and eyes open slowly,like those of a little boy.
"Unbelievable,"he says."How was this done?"
A film in the information center shows sculptor Gutzon Borglum devoted 14 years to the sculpture and then left the final touches to his son.
We stare up and I ask myself,"Would I ever devote my life to anything?"
No directions,no goals.I always used to hear those words in my father's voice.Now I hear them in my own.
The next day we're at Yellowstone National Park,where we have a picnic.
"Did you ever travel with your dad?"I ask.
"Only once,"he says."I never spoke much with my father.We loved each other-but never said it.Whatever he could give me,he gave."
That last sentence-it's probably the same thing I'd say about my father.And what I'd want my child to say about me.
In Glacier National Park,my father says,"I've never seen water so blue."I have,in several places of the world.I can keep traveling,I realize-and maybe a regular job won't be as dull as I feared.
Weeks after our trip,I call my father.
"The photos from the trip are wonderful,"he says."We've got to take another trip like that sometime."
I tell him I've decided to settle down,and I'm wearing a watch.

A.was a very fashionable manager           
B.liked the author's collection of stamps
C.got bored with his job so he retired

B.learns how to communicate with his father

35.What could be inferred about the author and his father from the end of the story?D
