把握散文中的“情感”
本文节选自《假如给我三天光明》，语篇类型为散文。散文是以抒发情感为主，以情动人的文学体裁，因此散文阅读的关键在于对作者的“思想情感”的把握。散文的“情感”多体现在文中的议论抒情句中，如本文首段中的“I have often thought it would be a blessing if each human being were stricken blind and deaf for a few days at some time during his early adult life.”及尾段中的“Use your eyes as if tomorrow you would be stricken blind.”，由这些句子可以推知，作者写本文是为了告诫身体健全的人们应热爱生活，珍惜生命。
(一)赏用词之妙
1．In the afternoon I should take a long walk in the woods and intoxicate my eyes on the beauties of the world of nature.
赏析：intoxicate一词灵活生动地表达了作者想让自己的双眼陶醉在大自然的美景之中的迫切心理。
2．The following morning, I should again greet the dawn, anxious to discover new delights, new revelations of beauty.
赏析：本句中的greet写出了作者内心的喜悦，anxious to则描绘了她想要探索美好世界的迫切心情。动词的灵活运用能增加描写的画面感，形容词(短语)的恰当使用则可以准确地揭示作者的心理活动。
①Guilin is such a beautiful place that __________________________.(心理描写)桂林是一个如此美丽的地方，我迫不及待地想去看看。
②With the lights of the city extinguished, ____________________ in the night sky.
随着城市的灯光熄灭，繁星在夜空中闪闪发光。
　　　
(二)赏句式之高
Use your eyes as if tomorrow you would be stricken blind.
赏析：本句中使用了as if引导的虚拟条件句，引出作者给看得见的人的一个忠告：要像明天即将失明一样去使用你的眼睛。以此提醒人们珍惜所见，善待自己所拥有的。同时虚拟条件句的使用让语气更诚恳，表达更委婉。
She got dizzy and felt ______________________________________________ beneath her feet.
她感到有些眩晕，好像脚下的大地在晃动。
(三)赏修辞之功
On my second day, I should like to see the pageant of man's progress, and I should go to the museums. I should try to probe into the soul of man through his art.
赏析：此处反复使用了I should ...句式，语气强烈地表达了作者想要用自己的双眼去看一看这个世界的急切心理。排比修辞的使用在增加文章节奏感、音律美的同时，也渲染了强烈的感彩。
Who knows ______________________________________， what medical advances you will make or what amazing technologies you will develop!
谁知道未来你们能创作出哪些精美的艺术品，实现哪些医学突破，或者开发出哪些不可思议的技术！
(四)赏衔接之顺
How was it possible, I asked myself, to walk for an hour through the woods and see nothing worthy of note I who cannot see find hundreds of things to interest me through mere touch.
赏析：本段开头使用了一个问句，既起承接上文、引领下文的作用，又能引起读者的思考和共鸣。 “问句开头”是写作中常用的一种表现手法。

No.3 课时跟踪检测
Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
When I was 13, I climbed my first mountain — a fairly gentle 3,900 foot peak. I was overweight at the time and out of breath when I reached the summit. But I loved challenging myself. Soon I'd climbed nearly 100 peaks. My parents were happy I'd finally found a hobby.
I often go climbing with my friend Mel Olsen. She and I drove to tackle 11,240 foot Mount Hood. It's safer to start winter climbs at night when there's less risk of the sun melting the snowpack. That day, we started at 3 a. m. At around 9 a. m., we reached an ice step. It was about three or four feet tall and sloped at a 75 degree angle. I volunteered to go first. I placed my left foot on the ice step.
I gained a sense of the ice when I stuck my ax and crampons (鞋底钉) into it, and it felt good. Confident I was safe, I put my full weight on it. Suddenly, I heard a crack, and as the snowpack became thinner, a whole piece of ice broke off the step, right under my foot.
In an instant, I fell backward, bouncing off the rock face and rolling down the mountain as if I were a character in a video game. I remember thinking, “This is it. You're done.” I stuck out my arms and legs, grabbing at anything. That stopped my rolling down the mountain, but I was still sliding. After a few seconds, I came to a stop on a shallow slope.
I asked myself：Where are you Mount Hood. What's the date December 30. Good. My brain was functioning. Then I checked my body to see where I was hurt. For the most part, I was fine, except that I was suffering from a sharp pain in my left leg. Later I'd learn that I'd broken my femur (股骨) and that the bone was slicing into my skin and muscle.
At the bottom of Mount Hood, I was loaded into an ambulance and taken to a hospital. The doctors told me it would be a year before I could climb again, but I was back on the trails within six months.
语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文。作者喜欢爬山，喜欢挑战自己，虽然在一次爬山时出了意外，但康复之后作者又重新踏上了登山之路，表明困难和挫折不能阻挡作者挑战自我的脚步。
1. Why did the author and her friend set out at 3 a. m.
A. It was the best time to enjoy the scenery.
B. It was more challenging to climb at night.
C. They wanted to finish the climb before sunset.
D. They hoped to avoid some possible dangers.
√
解析：细节理解题。根据第二段中的“It's safer to start winter climbs at night when there's less risk of the sun melting the snowpack.”可知,相比夜晚,白天爬山时,太阳融化积雪的风险较大,因此作者和朋友选择凌晨3点出发来回避可能的危险。
2. Why is “a character in a video game” mentioned in paragraph 4
A. To show her strong character.
B. To make her idea more convincing.
C. To help readers imagine the scene.
D. To add to the humour of the description.
√
解析：写作意图题。根据第四段中的“In an instant, I fell backward, bouncing off the rock face and rolling down the mountain as if I were a character in a video game.”可知,作者使用as if虚拟句式让读者结合自身的经验想象自己当时遭遇的危险状况。
3. How did the author make sure she could still think clearly
A. By recalling what had happened.
B. By checking whether she was injured.
C. By calling an ambulance for rescue.
D. By asking herself some factual questions.
√
解析：细节理解题。第五段中的两个问题“Where are you？”“What's the date？”都属于事实类问题,作者用自问自答的方式确定自己的大脑在事故后的意识状况。
4. What can we learn about the author
A. She is too brave to pay attention to any danger.
B. She has a strong desire for professional knowledge.
C. Setbacks can't stop her from challenging herself.
D. The love for nature sets her apart from her friends.
√
解析：推理判断题。第一段作者表明自己喜欢挑战,据此并结合最后一段中的“The doctors told ...within six months.”可知,困难和挫折不能阻挡作者挑战自我的脚步。
B
No doubt there are ups and downs in life. Whatever the situation is, you shouldn't lose your joy of life. Life is for a limited time only and no one knows how long he/she will live, so why do you waste your time in worrying about the things that are beyond your control Be happy, and enjoy your life unconditionally (无条件地).
You enjoy good days, but you also need to learn how to enjoy bad days, even enjoy your pain. In 2016 I suffered a sudden heart attack. My colleagues called an ambulance (救护车) and I was taken to hospital with much pain in my chest. Before reaching hospital, I was totally exhausted with pain and was going to lose control of my emotions. Then the doctor in the ambulance said, “Don't worry; you are in safe hands.” His words took away all my pain because I started realizing that it was no time to worry about pain and it's time to be happy that my life was safe. At that time, I learnt an important lesson that in pain there is a hidden joy and we must see the bright side and enjoy pain.
You not only enjoy success, but you also need to learn to enjoy failure. Celebrating failure will raise your morale and make you more powerful and determined to achieve success. We all make mistakes in life, but only the courageous (勇敢的) people laugh at their mistakes and then they reach success without any spiritual burden. A person who learns from mistakes and knows how to turn the bad situation into his/her favor is the most intelligent person and really enjoys his/her life.
语篇解读：本文是一篇议论文。人生短暂，我们要珍惜宝贵的时间，即使在困境中也要无条件地享受生活。
5. What does the author mainly tell us in the first paragraph
A. Life is full of ups and downs.
B. People's lives only last a limited period.
C. We should enjoy our life unconditionally.
D. Bad situations can be changed into good ones.
√
解析：段落大意题。根据第一段内容可知,作者在本段表明了自己的观点：生活总会有起伏,但人生短暂,我们没必要为不可控制的事情担忧,不要失去生活的乐趣,应该无条件地享受生活。故“无条件地享受生活”是本段的主旨。
6. Why did the author still feel happy when experiencing much pain
A. His colleagues were always with him.
B. He could be looked after by his parents.
C. He planned to enjoy the last days in life.
D. His doctor made him realize the value of being alive.
√
解析：细节理解题。根据第二段中的“His words took ...life was safe.”可知,医生的话使作者意识到,他不应该为疼痛而担忧,而应该为仍然活着而高兴。
7. The underlined word “morale” in paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to “ ”.
A. talent B. confidence
C. pleasure D. inspiration
解析：词义猜测题。根据画线词后的“make you more powerful and determined to achieve success”可知,作者是说庆祝失败可以增加你的“信心”,使你更有力量,更有决心去取得胜利。
√
8. The author thinks that the wisest person .
A. never laughs at others
B. has strong determination
C. is ready to do others a favor
D. is good at learning from mistakes
解析：细节理解题。根据最后一段尾句可知,作者认为善于从错误中学习,懂得将不好的境况转变为自己的优势的人是最聪明的人,也是真正会享受生活的人。

When he did it, all 16 hours, 46 minutes and 9 seconds of physical and psychological hell, his father told him, “You woke up this morning as a boy with Down syndrome. 9 ”
Chris Nikic. He's 21.
He made the unrealistic into his reality. 10 Last fall, he became the first person with Down syndrome to have completed an Ironman triathlon — a 2.4 mile swim, a 112 mile bike ride and a 26.2 mile run.
Chris Nikic is not just an Ironman — he's a superhero. “Since the race, we have received thousands and thousands of messages from people around the world who are inspired by his journey. 11 They have kids with special needs or Down syndrome. And so it's touched Chris and us quite a lot,” said Chris' father, Nik Nikic.
“ 12 Because he lets them use him as a mirror to look inwardly and say, ‘Look, if he can do so much with so little, what can I do with what I've got？’ It's not about him — it's about how he makes other people feel about themselves,” Nik Nikic said. Chris Nikic's story spread among the staff at Special Olympics Missouri.
As it was explained by Brian Neuner, Chief Development & Marketing Officer, “ 13 And so, this was just an amazing example of where his ability was realized, even though he has a disability. We really focus on programs that are designed for helping people move forward and advance. Progress can be measured in so many different ways. Obviously, an Ironman is an extreme achievement.”
A. Then came the big race.
B. You're going home as an Ironman.
C. A lot of the messages are from families like us.
D. We really focus on the ability, not the disability.
E. Chris underwent surgery that left him sedentary(惯于久坐不动的).
F. The native of Maitland, Florida believed in the unbelievable.
G. I think in many ways he helps people to realize that they can do more.
语篇解读：本文主要讲述了一个患有唐氏综合征的年轻人Chris Nikic经过不断训练，完成铁人三项这一奇迹的感人事迹。
9. 选B　此处是父亲对儿子说的话,前一句说的是早上醒来的情景,故此处可能会提到赛后回家的情景,且人称也应为第二人称,故B项符合语境。
10. 选F　空前讲到“他让不可能变成了现实”,空后提到“去年秋天,他成了第一个完成铁人三项的唐氏综合征患者”,因此空处应该也是与创造奇迹相关的表达,故F项符合语境。
11. 选C　空前讲到他们收到了成千上万条来自世界各地的人们发来的信息,空后则说这些人都有有特殊需求或患有唐氏综合征的孩子,C项“许多信息都是来自像我们这样的家庭”承上启下,符合语境。
12. 选G　由空后“因为他让他们把他当作审视内心的镜子”可以推断,空处讲到的应与Chris给人们带来的积极影响有关,故G项符合语境。
13. 选D　空处是Brian Neuner 所说的话,所以人称应为第一人称；结合空后一句可知,空处讲到的也应该是对能力和残疾的讨论,故D项符合语境。UNIT 2　课时检测(四)　“Developing ideas”的课文习读环节

2．选C　写作意图题。根据第四段中的“In an instant, I fell backward, bouncing off the rock face and rolling down the mountain as if I were a character in a video game.”可知，作者使用as if虚拟句式让读者结合自身的经验想象自己当时遭遇的危险状况。
3．选D　细节理解题。第五段中的两个问题“Where are you？”“What's the date？”都属于事实类问题，作者用自问自答的方式确定自己的大脑在事故后的意识状况。
4．选C　推理判断题。第一段作者表明自己喜欢挑战，据此并结合最后一段中的“The doctors told ...within six months.”可知，困难和挫折不能阻挡作者挑战自我的脚步。
语篇解读：本文是一篇议论文。人生短暂，我们要珍惜宝贵的时间，即使在困境中也要无条件地享受生活。　　
5．选C　段落大意题。根据第一段内容可知，作者在本段表明了自己的观点：生活总会有起伏，但人生短暂，我们没必要为不可控制的事情担忧，不要失去生活的乐趣，应该无条件地享受生活。故“无条件地享受生活”是本段的主旨。
6．选D　细节理解题。根据第二段中的“His words took ...life was safe.”可知，医生的话使作者意识到，他不应该为疼痛而担忧，而应该为仍然活着而高兴。
7．选B　词义猜测题。根据画线词后的“make you more powerful and determined to achieve success”可知，作者是说庆祝失败可以增加你的“信心”，使你更有力量，更有决心去取得胜利。
8．选D　细节理解题。根据最后一段尾句可知，作者认为善于从错误中学习，懂得将不好的境况转变为自己的优势的人是最聪明的人，也是真正会享受生活的人。
Ⅱ.阅读七选五
语篇解读：本文主要讲述了一个患有唐氏综合征的年轻人Chris Nikic经过不断训练，完成铁人三项这一奇迹的感人事迹。
9．选B　此处是父亲对儿子说的话，前一句说的是早上醒来的情景，故此处可能会提到赛后回家的情景，且人称也应为第二人称，故B项符合语境。
10．选F　空前讲到“他让不可能变成了现实”，空后提到“去年秋天，他成了第一个完成铁人三项的唐氏综合征患者”，因此空处应该也是与创造奇迹相关的表达，故F项符合语境。
11．选C　空前讲到他们收到了成千上万条来自世界各地的人们发来的信息，空后则说这些人都有有特殊需求或患有唐氏综合征的孩子，C项“许多信息都是来自像我们这样的家庭”承上启下，符合语境。
12．选G　由空后“因为他让他们把他当作审视内心的镜子”可以推断，空处讲到的应与Chris给人们带来的积极影响有关，故G项符合语境。
13．选D　空处是Brian Neuner 所说的话，所以人称应为第一人称；结合空后一句可知，空处讲到的也应该是对能力和残疾的讨论，故D项符合语境。
