5.I was driving past our town park the Saturday before Easter last year and noticed a large group of adults putting thousands of plastic eggs around the park in preparation for an Easter egg hunt.The eggs were in plain sight,consistent with the current thinking that no child should be expected to work up a sweat.The children were lined up behind a rope,the smallest in front,to get first crack at the egg,applying a standard of fairness that exists nowhere in the world that I know of.
When I was a kid,the town kept its nose out of the Easter egg business.The day before Easter,my mother went to Johnston's IGA(a grocery store) and bought three dozen eggs,vinegar,and food coloring.While she was boiling the eggs,we poured hot water,vinegar,and food coloring in coffee cups,and spread the Saturday morning indianapolis Star on the kitchen table.Then,we dipped the eggs in cups.
My oldest brother,Glenn,hid the eggs in roof gutters 30 feet aboe the ground,buried them in the center of thorn bushes,beneath foundation stones and in snake holes,any place that could result in our death or disfigurement while hunting for them.It took us weeks to find them,and some we never did discover would work their way to the Earth's surface the next winter.
Usually,one of us found way more eggs than the other four of us---usually Glenn,since he had hidden them in the first place.Complaining was useless,since our parents wouldn't have done anything about it except to tell us to stop complaining.It would never have occurred to them to place the eggs in plain sight,or to take us by the hand and guide us from egg to egg,or to urge the bigger children to leave some eggs for the smaller children.
Will the kids in our town have such fun if we keep coddling (spoiling) them?

24.What did the author think of the Easter egg hunt he saw in the park?C
A.It was unfair.
B.It was tiring.
C.It was boring.
D.It was challenging.
25.What were the places where the author's brother hid the eggs like?D
A.Dirty
B.Readily available.
C.Faraway.
D.Hardly noticeable
26.How did the author's parents deal with their complaining?C
A.They treated it fairly.
B.They took it seriously.
C.They played no part in it.
D.They punished the complainer.
27.Why did the author ask the question in the last paragraph?B
A.To ask readers to answer it.
B.To encourage deep thinking.
C.To blame young kids nowadays.
D.To show his doubt about education.

分析 本文屬于說明文閱讀,作者通過這篇文章主要向我們描述了作者在公園里看到的復(fù)活節(jié)彩蛋,想起兒時家中的彩蛋游戲.

解答 24.C.推理判斷題.根據(jù)第一段The children were lined up behind a rope,the smallest in front,to get first crack at the egg,applying a standard of fairness that exists nowhere in the world that I know of可知作者對他在公園里看到的復(fù)活節(jié)彩蛋覺得很無聊;故選C.
25.D.細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)第三段My oldest brother,Glenn,hid the eggs in roof gutters 30 feet aboe the ground,buried them in the center of thorn bushes,beneath foundation stones and in snake holes,any place that could result in our death or disfigurement while hunting for them可知作者的哥哥講彩蛋藏在很不明顯的地方;故選D.
26.C.細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)文章Complaining was useless,since our parents wouldn't have done anything about it except to tell us to stop complaining可知作者的父母不會參與其中;故選C.
27.B.推理判斷題.根據(jù)最后一段Will the kids in our town have such fun if we keep coddling (spoiling) them?可知作者的目的是鼓勵深層思考;故選B.

點評 考察學(xué)生的細(xì)節(jié)理解和推理判斷能力,做細(xì)節(jié)理解題時一定要找到文章中的原句,和題干進行比較,再做出正確的選擇.在做推理判斷題不要以個人的主觀想象代替文章的事實,要根據(jù)文章事實進行合乎邏輯的推理判斷.

16.Tchaikovsky,a famous Russian composer of the late-Romantic period,was born on 7 May 1840 in the mountains of western Russia.He was the first Russian composer whose music made a lasting impression internationally.Tchaikovsky's training set him on a path to combine what he had learned with the native musical practices to which he had been exposed from childhood.He first helped write a song in 1844,at an age when most children are still in kindergarten.At home,his mother sang folk songs,which helped develop his interest in music.Mozart was Tchaikovsky's favourite composer and he influenced Tchaikovsky's life and work.For 11 years,beginning in 1866,Tchaikovsky taught at the Moscow School of Music.During his time there,he wrote music for the piano,along with ballets,operas and symphonies.He was famous for writing the music for the ballet Swan Lake in 1876.Because of his musical talent,Tchaikovsky toured many countries as a conductor,including a voyage to the USA in 1891.He continued to write for the ballet until his death in Saint Petersburg in 1893.
[寫作內(nèi)容]
1.寫作過程中不能直接引用原文語句;
2.作文中不能出現(xiàn)真實姓名和學(xué)校名稱;
3.不必寫標(biāo)題.
[評分標(biāo)準(zhǔn)]內(nèi)容完整,語言規(guī)范,語篇連貫,詞數(shù)適當(dāng).
Tchaikovsky's talent in music is just the first step to success.His mother,idol,hard work also play an important part in the process of his success.He is even committed to music until death.
After reading through Tchaikovsky's life story,we can learn upwards of two lessons as follows.First,one should set a big goal and spare no effort in achievingit.Tchaikovsky's life-long goal was to catch up with his idol Mozart,who influenced his life and work.Second,one should commit one's whole being to work.Tchaikovsky wrote music for ten years and finally created his masterpiece,Swan Lake.
When it comes to commitment to work,I shall count it as a personal favour.I was once poor in math,but I swore to get it improved in my senior year,so I devoted myself to math in classroom,library and anywhere possible and made it eventually.(151 words).
