It was her laughing that drew my attention. Note taking really wasn’t all that funny.
Walking over to the offender (someone that does something wrong), I asked for the   36 . Frozen, she refused to give it to me. I waited, all attention in the classroom on the quiet   37  between teacher and student. When she finally   38  it over she whispered, “Okay, but I didn’t draw it.”
It was a hand-drawn   39  of me, teeth blackened and the words “I’m stupid” coming out of my mouth.
I managed to fold it up calmly. My mind,   40 , was working angrily as I struggled not to   41 . I figured I knew the two students who were most likely to draw the picture. It would do them some   42  to teach them a lesson, and maybe it was high time that I did it!
Thankfully, I was able to keep myself   43 .
When there were about six minutes remaining, I showed the class the picture. They were all silent as I told them how   44 this was for me. I told them there must be a reason   45  and now was their chance to write down anything they needed to tell me. Then I let them write silently while I sniffled(抽鼻子) in the back of the classroom.
As I   46  the notes later, many of them said something like, “I’ve got nothing against you,” or “I’m sorry you were hurt.” A number of them said, “You give us too much homework.” Some kids said, “We’re   47  of you.” But two notes, from the girls who I   48   were behind the picture, had a list of issues. I was too   49  , too strict…
Reading those notes, I realized that over the course of this year, instead of   50 my students, I had begun commanding them to   51 . Where I thought I was driving them to success I was   52  driving them away.
I had some apologizing to do. But the next day in the classroom, one boy and one girl each handed me a card. The one   53  by all the boys expressed sincere regret for the ugly joke. The one from the girls asked for   54 .
This was a lesson for both the kids and me. Forgiveness does not change the past, but it does enlarge the   55

解析
【要点综述】一次令人不愉快的玩笑让作者意识到自己对学生的严加管教实际上背离了自己的初衷,他们需要的是鼓励,而不是命令。
小题1:D 考查名词。女孩儿咯咯的笑声吸引了作者的注意,作者认为记笔记没有那么可笑,就向“冒犯者”要“笔记”。上文的“Note-taking”是线索提示。
小题1:D 考查名词。她拒绝把笔记交给作者,作者在等待,教室中所有的目光都转向了这场师生之间的沉默的“战争”,此处是比喻用法。
小题1:B 考查动词。上文提到作者向她要笔记,所以此处是她把笔记“交”给了作者。
小题1:D 考查名词。根据上一段最后一句中的内容可知笔记本上面是学生手画的作者的“画像”。下文的“for drawing the picture”也是线索提示。
小题1:A 作者努力平静地把学生给作者画的画像折叠起来,“但是”内心却感到非常气愤。前后内容表示转折,故用however。
小题1:D 根据上一段中描述的画像的内容可知这是对作者的侮辱,所以作者看过之后努力不“哭”出来。下文的“I sniffed in the back of the classroom”是线索提示。
小题1:C 作者认为这么做太过分,教训她们一顿会对她们有些“好处”。do sb.good表示“对某人有好处”。
小题1:A 上一段的后半部分提到作者打算教训她们一顿,所以此处表示作者最终能够“控制”自己。
小题1:B 根据下一段中的“I’m sorry you were hurt.”可知这张画像深深地“伤害”了作者。meaningful意为“有意义的”;forgetful意为“健忘的”;regretful意为“懊悔的”,均不符合语境。
小题1:B 作者告诉他们画像“背后”肯定有原因。下文揭示了画像背后的原因。
小题1:A 上一段提到作者让学生写下需要对作者说的任何事情,所以此处是“阅读”学生写的内容。另外,下一段的开头部分也是线索提示。
小题1:C 由下文可知作者对学生太严厉了,所以学生应该是害怕她,故选C。
小题1: A 此处与第四段的“ I figured…”相呼应,表示作者“认为”她们是画像背后的“真凶”。figure表示“认为,认定 (某事将发生或属实)”。
小题1:D 根据上下文可知她们认为作者过于严厉,非常“刻薄”。talkative意为“健谈的”;clumsy意为“笨拙的”;considerate意为“体贴的”,都不符合语境。
小题1:D 作者意识到今年以来,没有“鼓励”学生,而是采用了命令的方式。
小题1:A 根据下一句中的success可知作者开始采用命令的方式迫使学生“完成”。前三项分别表示“欣赏,感激”;“道歉”;“妥协”,都与下一句中的内容不符。
小题1:B 作者原以为这样会让他们成功,而“实际上”是让他们离成功越来越远。normally意为“正常地”;immediately意为“立刻”;generally意为“普遍地”,均不符合语境。
小题1:A 在有全部男生“签名”的那张卡片上他们表达了对这次令人不愉快的玩笑的真诚的后悔。
小题1:C 根据前一句中的“…expressed sincere regret for…”以及下一段第二句中的“Forgiveness does…”可知女生们请求作者的“原谅”。thankfulness意为“感激”;compensation意为“补偿”;communication意为“交流”,都不符合语境。
小题1:B 此处与本句中的the past相对,故选B项,表示“将来”。
核心考点
试题【It was her laughing that drew my attention. Note taking really wasn’t all that f】;主要考察你对题材分类等知识点的理解。[详细]
举一反三
A professor I have worked pretty closely with has been diagnosed with Stage 4 cancer. It has been devastating(悲惨的) for his family and heartbreaking for his students.
What made him extraordinary was not only that he was a rising star. He had only recently collected the highest honors for young researchers at the White House. We truly admire him—as someone put it, ‘He always has a smile and a kind word for everyone.” It is very hard to find someone who is extremely intelligent should be so nice a human being.
I decided that we needed him to know our attitude and also how we are all praying for his recovery. I bought him a simple card which read, ‘Healing thoughts and wishes coming your way.” I met all the students he worked closely with and got them to sign on it. Each student in his laboratory signed and also added a message. ‘We love you so much”, ‘We miss you! We need you back here—recover soon”… These were some of the messages that were written. Most of the students were really glad we were doing this and said it was a very good idea to give it to him.
He is still undergoing intense treatment, and along with his family is trying his best to stay optimistic and hopeful. I didn’t see a trace of self-pity or sadness when I met him last week. Instead, he paid attention to every word of my presentation and asked me several questions related to my work. I was amazed at how much he gave his 100% on that day in spite of being in pain because of chemotherapy( 化疗),he did not know if he even had another month to live. “I am trying to focus on staying positive, hoping to be back this summer,” he said.
Needless to say, I saw an expression of joy and hope on his face as he opened the card. He said he was truly touched to see the messages from the students he worked closely with.
There is one thing I learnt from last week: It is so important to tell people how much they mean to us and what an inspiration they are before it becomes too late. My professor, in spite of being too sick to teach classes, has managed to continue being a great teacher, introducing his last valuable message to us.
小题1:The professor was admired because _______.
A.he was very intelligentB.he had won many honors
C.he had noble personalitiesD.he was very determined
小题2:What do the underlined words “our attitude” in paragraph 3 refer to?
A.Our worry about his health.B.Our pray for his health.
C.Our admiration for him.D.Our pity for him.
小题3: When the writer visited the professor at hospital, what surprised him was that the professor ________.
A.was suffering form great painB.was still very confident
C.didn’t know he would die soonD.still cared for others
小题4: Of the following statements, the writer may agree that _________.
A.the professor loves his job very much
B.few students supported the writer’s decision at first
C.the professor will go back to teach this summer
D.the professor often feels sorry for himself
小题5:According to the last paragraph, what did the author learn?
A.One should remain optimistic all the time.
B.It is important to let people know about their importance.
C.Teachers should have a positive influence on their students.
D.It is never too late to make a right decision.

A nicely dressed little girl was  36  the teddy bears(泰迪熊) beside her father  37 she saw a little boy walk in and stop in front of the Pokémon toys. His jacket was obviously too small. He had money in his hand.   38 , it looked no more than five dollars at most. He was with his father as well, and  39 picking up the Pokémon video games. Each time he showed one to his father, his father  40  his head, “No”.
Rather  41 , the boy gave up the video games and chose a book of stickers  42 . After they walked away, the little girl ran over to the Pokémon video games. She excitedly picked up one  43  on top of the others, and raced down toward the check-out. I picked up my purchases and  44 the girl and her father.
Then, much to the little girl’s  45 , the little boy and his father got in line  46 her and me.

The boy could only  51  in disbelief. It was, he said,   52 what he had wanted! The little girl and her father had been standing at the doorway, and I saw the biggest and  53 smile on that little girl I have ever seen in my life.

Nowadays, a hospital always manages to keep its beds full. This is good on the one hand, and it’s bad on   36  hand.
One day, I went to see a sick friend at the hospital. I first went to the   37  desk, where I could get a permit to visit the patient.
  38  I could ask which room my friend was in, the lady set down my name, age, filled out a form and   39  a bell. I was just about to tell her what I was coming for when two men arrived with a wheelchair,   40   me in it and pushed me down the hall.
“I’m not   41 ,” I shouted. “I’m just looking for a friend.”
“When he comes,” one man said, “we’ll   42  him up to your room.”
In a minute I   43  myself in a small room. In no time they undressed me and covered some other things   44  me. One man said “If you need anything, press the button.”
“I want to get my   45   back.” I begged.
“Oh, you can   46    us,” a voice said, “Even if the   47  happens, we will see that your wife will get everything.” They left and locked the door   48   them.
I was trying to think of how to escape by the door when Dr. Ward came in with several of his   49 .
“Thank God you finally came,” I said.
“It hurts that badly?” he asked.
“No, on the contrary, I am not ill   50 .”
Dr. Ward looked   51 . “If you don’t feel any pain, that means it’s much more   52  than we expected.” Then he turned to his students: “This is the most difficult kind of patient to deal with because he refuses to   53  that he is ill. __54__ he won’t tell us where it hurts, he will never be well again until we find the hurt out for   55  by doing exploratory surgery (手术探查) .”

Then Ted followed the anxious Spotty. The little dog led the man to a   45  spot a half mile from the house. There Ted found his beloved Brownie   46  but one of his hind legs stuck in a steel leg-hold trap.

Brownie’s leg was treated by a veterinarian and he recovered. For many years afterward, the two   55  watched the faithful friends frolicking(嬉戏)and chasing each other down that well worn path between their houses.
