Question

【題目】When I was in my third year at university, my roommates were American footballers, so I decided to join them. I remember seeing them in front of me wearing pads (防護(hù)墊), and thinking they were going to kill me. I got tackled (阻截) so hard that I was frightened. But then I realized it was just physical contact. I’ve been addicted since.

The fundamental aim of the game is to score by running with the ball into, or receiving the ball inside the opposition’s end zone. Every player on the field has a set responsibility. I’m a running back. My job is using my speed, strength and skill to carry the ball and keep running until either I score or I get put down. And it does hurt.

I’ve broken two fingers and hurt my shoulder, but the worst was when I trapped the ligaments (韌帶) in the back of my leg. I had to take a year out. But none of that put me off- all I could think was how I was going to come back stronger. Besides training with the team, I now have my gym routine to get fitter, faster and stronger.

Although people think American football is aggressive, there’s much more to it. Every team has its own playbook, outlining everyone’s role in different scenes. My playbook was 73 pages long. Words can’t describe how it feels when it all comes together on the field.

American football has changed my life for the better. I’ve learned time management, how to take responsibility for my action, and how much I treasure being part of a team. Within the four lines of the field, it is physical. Emotions run high. If you’re on the opposing team, you are my enemy. But once the game is done, we’re like a big family.

【1】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段的第一句I’ve broken two fingers and hurt my shoulder, but the worst was when I trapped the ligaments (韌帶) in the back of my leg.可知作者受傷的部位有finger，shoulder以及leg。故沒有受傷的是arm。故選A。

【2】推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段的內(nèi)容American football has changed my life for the better. I’ve learned time management, how to take responsibility for my action, and how much I treasure being part of a team.（美式足球讓我的生活變的更好。我學(xué)會(huì)了時(shí)間管理、如何為我的行為負(fù)責(zé)以及多么珍惜自己作為團(tuán)隊(duì)的一員。）可知雖然作者因?yàn)樽闱蜻\(yùn)動(dòng)受了一些傷，但是獲益更多。故選B。

【4】主旨大意題。通讀全文可知，文章介紹作者加入美式足球隊(duì)以及從這種運(yùn)動(dòng)中學(xué)到的東西，讓他變得更好。結(jié)合最后一段的內(nèi)容American football has changed my life for the better.可知文章主要說的是這種運(yùn)動(dòng)如何改變作者的生活。故選C。

主旨大意題解題思路分析：

概括主旨大意的方法有：

A：尋找主題句，有些段落大意在主題句上。主題句有的在句首，有的在段中，有的在段尾。

B：尋找關(guān)鍵詞，有些段落大意就散落在關(guān)鍵詞上。

閱讀理解的問題也以如下形式出現(xiàn)：

1. What is the best title for/of the passage?

2. What can be inferred from the passage?

3. What does the author mainly tell us about in the text？

4. What is mainly discussed in the article/passage/text? 做答這類問題時(shí)，將閱讀重點(diǎn)放在首尾部分，中間部分則可采用略讀或掃讀的方式，一是省時(shí)間，二則目標(biāo)明確，正確率自然也相應(yīng)提高了。如本文的第4小題，由題干The passage is manly about .可知這里考查了本文的主旨。根據(jù)主旨大意題的解題技巧A，通讀全文，根據(jù)文章結(jié)尾部分—American football has changed my life for the better. 可知文章主要說的是這種運(yùn)動(dòng)如何改變作者的生活�？蛇x出答案為C。
