|阅|读|技|能|提|升| 理清故事线索,剖析人物性格
本文是一篇人物介绍类文章。此类文章一般以时间为线索,通过丰富的细节描写和生动的语言表达,展现主人公的性格和个性。阅读时需要注意按照故事或事件的时间顺序理清故事或事件的发展过程,通过人物经历把握人物的性格特点和内心世界。如本文按照时间顺序展开,通过对几件大事件的描写和主人公的心理变化推动行文发展,介绍了主人公克里斯托弗·里夫不屈不挠的一生,从中读者可以总结他的性格特点(helpful、selfless、energetic、responsible and strong willed)。
(一)赏用词之妙
1.Reeve starred in four Superman films from 1978 to 1987.
赏析:star一词在此处用作动词,意为“主演,担任主角”,描述了Reeve在四部《超人》电影中担任主演。该词作为名词时意为“星,恒星;明星”,此处属于名词动词化,表达形象生动。常用的名词动词化的单词还有:head(n.头 v.奔向)、eye(n.眼睛 v.注视)、hand(n.手 v.递,分发)、nurse(n.护士 v.照顾)、face(n.脸 v.面向,面对)等。
2.Having once been a healthy and successful young man to being trapped in a broken body was like a living nightmare to him.
赏析:nightmare表示“梦魇,噩梦”,nightmare前面用living(活着的)来修饰,更加具体地表明了被困在一副受伤的身体里对Reeve来说感觉像一个真实的噩梦。两个词表达了这次灾难对Reeve的沉重打击,衬托出Reeve面对生活的勇气。

①The trip turned into a terrible dream when they both got sick. ________________
②我室友问我谁主演《甘地》这部电影。
________________________________________________________________________
(二)赏句式之高
1.He admitted that during the early stages of living with his injury, he wished that he was dead and even thought of ending his own life.
赏析:第一个that引导宾语从句,作admitted的宾语;在宾语从句中,又包含一个that引导的宾语从句,作wished的宾语;and连接并列谓语。该句真实地描述了Reeve突然遭遇不幸时曾经有过的自暴自弃的想法,这种心理的转折引发读者共鸣,更表现出他以后克服困难时的顽强。
2.What I do is based on powers we all have inside us ... and you don't have to be a ‘superman’ to do it.
赏析:and连接并列句;在第一个分句中what引导主语从句,we all have inside us是省略关系代词that/which的定语从句,修饰先行词powers;第二个分句中to do it是动词不定式表示目的。该句采用引用原话的写作手法展现了Reeve积极乐观的生活态度,引发读者思考。

①I admitted that ____________________________________________________________ and even thought of joining the army.
我承认在我小时候,我希望成为一名警察,甚至想到去参军。
②____________________ was save more people ______________________.
我所做的就是拯救更多陷入困境的人。
(三)赏修辞之功
Sadly, on 10 October, 2004, Christopher Reeve passed away.
赏析:此句运用了“pass away”委婉语,表达了对Reeve的尊重。委婉语的表达法还有:不说poor(穷),而说needy(拮据)或underprivileged(经济状况低下);不说steal(偷),而说take other people's things without permission(未经许可拿了别人的东西);不说old(老),而说 elderly(长者)或a senior citizen (年长公民);不说thin(瘦),而说slim/slender (苗条纤细)等。
[提能训练] (翻译并体会下面委婉语的句子)
①Where can I wash my hands
________________________________________________________________________
②I'm afraid I can't come to the restaurant with you. I'm financially embarrassed at the moment.
抱歉我不能和你去下馆子了,__________________________________。
(四)赏文笔之美
Shortly after, he managed to return to his film career by directing, producing and even starring in films.
赏析:本句是一个简单句,介词by表示“通过”,后面接了三个并列的动词 ing形式作宾语。通过列举具体的行为,详细且有画面感地展现了他多方位参与电影创作的情景,让读者对他在电影领域的活跃和全面性有了清晰的认识,增强了句子的丰富度和立体感。

China's long history has seen many scientists making great contributions to the development of ancient China and even the world. We have selected several greatest scientists in ancient China and hope to help you learn more about Chinese science and technology.
Zhang Zhongjing (150-219) was a Chinese physician in Han Dynasty (206 BC-220 AD). He founded medication principles and summarized the medicinal experience before his time. His famous work Shang Han Za Bing Lun had a major influence on the practice of traditional Chinese medicine. Today, this great book was still considered very important in the practice of Chinese medicine.
Li Daoyuan (AD 427 or 469-527) was a great Chinese geographer during the Northern Wei Dynasty (386-534). He wrote the famous work Commentary to the River Classic (Shui Jing Zhu). The book is a great work on the ancient geography of China and it sums up China's geography and its surrounding areas before Northern Wei Dynasty.
Sun Simiao was an outstanding medical scientist in the Tang Dynasty (618-907). He was called “China's King of Medicine” for his important contributions to Chinese traditional medicine. Sun authored two books — Qian Jin Yao Fang and Qian Jin Yi Fang that were both landmarks in Chinese medicine history.

He compiled (汇编) an scientific work Dream Pool Essays, which involves a lot descriptions about the animals and plants in the country.

In 2018, the state of California was on fire. Alexandria Villasenor, who was 13 at the time, witnessed the destruction of Northern California's Camp Fire, which would go on to burn more than 150,000 acres of land. Villasenor was scared. “That's when I found out how important climate education was,” she reflected. “And just how much we lacked climate education these past couple of years.”
Villasenor is determined to have a bigger conversation. She quickly realized the fight requires international, government-level changes. For her, what started as local concern turned into a year-long protest in front of the United Nations' New York City headquarters and a global campaign for more compulsory climate education. She sat on a bench in front of the headquarters, pleading for the world's leaders to take climate change seriously.
Her action received national attention, with millions of other students around the world joining in the movement. “It's completely unacceptable to not learn anything about our planet and our environment in school, after all the young people would ‘inherit’ the Earth.” Villasenor said. “That's why I think that climate education is so important, and that's why I concentrate on it now.”
Right now, Villasenor is working with the Biden-Harris administration on its climate plan, which has promised to center the needs of young people and communities most impacted by climate change. She even spoke at the Democratic National Convention. “That was definitely a huge moment when I realized that people were listening to the voices of me and youth climate activists,” Villasenor said.
When she isn't connecting with her fellow youth activists or holding elected officials accountable to the climate concerns of their young voters, Villasenor is like most other teens. “My favorite thing to do, of course, is sleep,” she said. “I like to read a lot. I like fantasy books, normally. I also like to write.”
语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了青少年气候活动家Alexandria Villasenor为了更好的气候教育而奋斗的事迹。

A.The current education system of California.
B.The vast land of California.

D.The fire disasters in America.
√
解析:细节理解题。根据第一段内容可知,是加利福尼亚严重的营火让Villasenor意识到气候教育的缺乏。
5.What can we infer from the passage
A.Villasenor thinks local people have taken climate change seriously.
B.Young people should do more things for the earth so as to inherit it.
C.The protest aimed to fight against government's administration.
D.Villasenor turned her original appeal into a lasting and widespread one.
√
解析:推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Her action received national attention, with millions of other students around the world joining in the movement.”可推知,Villasenor对加强气候教育的呼吁变得持久且范围更加广泛。
6.Which of the following gives Villasenor a sense of achievement
A.More schools have set up climate courses.
B.She can sleep and read in her spare time.
C.She's working with the Biden-Harris administration on its climate plan.
D.Villasenor and other youth climate activists' opinions caught people's attention.
√
解析:细节理解题。根据第四段中Villasenor说的话可知,Villasenor和其他青年气候活动家的观点引起了人们的注意,这给了Villasenor一种成就感。
7.What is this passage mainly about
A.A young girl receives climate education.
B.A young activist fights for better climate education.
C.Young activists make their voices heard.
D.Climate education plays an importance role in life.
解析:主旨大意题。本篇文章主要讲述了青少年活动家Alexandria Villasenor为更好的气候教育而奋斗的故事。

In 2018, the state of California was on fire. Alexandria Villasenor, who was 13 at the time, witnessed the destruction of Northern California's Camp Fire, which would go on to burn more than 150,000 acres of land. Villasenor was scared. “That's when I found out how important climate education was,” she reflected. “And just how much we lacked climate education these past couple of years.”
Villasenor is determined to have a bigger conversation. She quickly realized the fight requires international, government level changes. For her, what started as local concern turned into a year long protest in front of the United Nations' New York City headquarters and a global campaign for more compulsory climate education. She sat on a bench in front of the headquarters, pleading for the world's leaders to take climate change seriously.
Her action received national attention, with millions of other students around the world joining in the movement. “It's completely unacceptable to not learn anything about our planet and our environment in school, after all the young people would ‘inherit’ the Earth.” Villasenor said. “That's why I think that climate education is so important, and that's why I concentrate on it now.”
Right now, Villasenor is working with the Biden Harris administration on its climate plan, which has promised to center the needs of young people and communities most impacted by climate change. She even spoke at the Democratic National Convention. “That was definitely a huge moment when I realized that people were listening to the voices of me and youth climate activists,” Villasenor said.
When she isn't connecting with her fellow youth activists or holding elected officials accountable to the climate concerns of their young voters, Villasenor is like most other teens. “My favorite thing to do, of course, is sleep,” she said. “I like to read a lot. I like fantasy books, normally. I also like to write.”
4.What made Villasenor realize the lack of climate education
A.The current education system of California.

5.What can we infer from the passage
A.Villasenor thinks local people have taken climate change seriously.
B.Young people should do more things for the earth so as to inherit it.

D.Villasenor turned her original appeal into a lasting and widespread one.
6.Which of the following gives Villasenor a sense of achievement
A.More schools have set up climate courses.
B.She can sleep and read in her spare time.
C.She's working with the Biden Harris administration on its climate plan.
D.Villasenor and other youth climate activists' opinions caught people's attention.
