【要点综述】文章告诉我们,面对苦难和挑战,要充分发挥想象力的作用,使自己内心强大起来,梦想才能实现。
26.A 细节理解题。
由第一段的“Tom,afour-year-oldboywithacancerinhisbackbone.Hecamethroughseveraloperations…”可知,Tom病得很厉害。
27.D 推理判断题。
由第四段的“AndTom,withthestrengthofhisfantasy,successfullymadeitthroughtheoperation.”可以看出,Tom的妈妈答应儿子的要求,就是想帮儿子减少手术的痛苦感。
其他选项可以这样排除:
由第三段的“Shehadavoidedbuyingtheexpensivecostume(戏装),butfinallysheagreed.”可以看出A和B错误;C项可以由常识排除。
28.B 细节理解题。
由第四段的“ThenextdayTomappearedasthepowerfulSuperman,showingoffthroughthehospitalhallsandcoollywavinghishandtothepeoplegreetinghimalongtheway.”可知当时他的行为和超人一样。
故选B。
29.C 推理判断题。
这是对前面所讲述的故事的升华,故事中小Tom用自己的想象力战胜了痛苦,作者在这里也建议我们面对困难时要“needtobecometowinoveryourchallengeanddoitinyourmindfirst.”还要“letyourimaginationrunwild,anddaretodream.”由此可见,C项符合题意。
30.D 写作目的题。
文章开篇点题:
Imaginationandfantasycanplayanimportantroleinachievingthethingswefear.告诉我们想象力的重要性,然后通过一个具体的例子加以论证。
最后一段中作者又鼓励我们在挑战和困难面前使用想象力,使自己内心强大起来,故选D。
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、和D)中,选出最佳选项。
A
