【文章大意】 本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者在观看了《看不见的孩子》这个纪录片后,人生观被改变,从而决定主修工程学来改变世界。
1.A 细节理解题。根据第一段中“In movies and books, people often describe a decisive moment when they figure out who they are. However, I never thought it actually happened in real life. I never expected to have a ‘moment’ of my own.”可知,作者最初认为这个决定性时刻是不可能在现实生活中发生的。故选A。
2.B 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“My whole world shifted.”可知,电影改变了作者的人生观。故选B。
3.A 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Ultimately, this is why I decided to major in engineering. With an engineering degree, my potential for change will be limitless. I will build wells and schools, and design irrigation systems. Engineering is tough, but I know—in what Yeats called ‘my deep heart’s call’—that this is what I’m supposed to do with my life.”可知,作者选择工程学专业是为了达到他的目标。故选A。
4.C 推理判断题。通读全文可知,文章主要讲述了作者在观看了《看不见的孩子》这个纪录片后,人生观被改变,从而决定主修工程学来改变世界。由此可推知,文章可能出现在报纸的“教育”版块。故选C。
B
【文章大意】 本文为一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了观众们对于《走向新生活》这部电视剧的评价和它对年轻人的影响。
5.B 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“The main character is a young farmer and the series is about country life, making the popularity of the series all the more surprising.”可知,电视剧《走向新生活》主要讲的是一位年轻的威尔士农民的乡村生活。故选B。
6.A 词义猜测题。根据文章第三段“She figures this series offers a form of escape from their fast and stressful lives.”、第四段“Despite this, many parents and teachers are worried about the effect this is having on young people.”以及画线词后的句子“…using Escape to a New Life as an excuse for not completing homework, or refusing to revise for exams, citing a need for a happier and less stressful life.”可知,这个电视剧为青少年提供了一种逃离快节奏和紧张生活的方式,学生以此为借口不复习考试,所以此处指的是只看电视剧而忽视了其他事情。所以此处画线词意为“忽视”,与paying no attention to意义接近。故选A。
7.A 推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段“One father, Paul McGregor, said his daughter Charlotte had changed a lot. He said, ‘She used to be in the school athletics team and loved the javelin, but now she only wants to watch the TV series and has been dropped from the team. She no longer completes her homework, saying it doesn’t matter as she just wants to “escape to a new life”.’”可知,他的女儿只看电视剧,被田径队冷落,不写作业,由此可推知,保罗·麦格雷戈对这部电视剧持反对态度。故选A。
8.D 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Paediatrician, Dr Elisa Carhart who specialises in child mental health, says that TV can influence young people’s decisions in life, but believes that if a young person reacts as strongly as Charlotte, it’s likely there are other reasons for the change in her behaviour.”可知,艾丽莎·卡哈特博士认为电视影响着年轻人生活中的决定,但是如果决定过于偏激,可能存在其他影响因素,所以不能一概地说电视剧的坏处,而忽视了其中宝贵的部分。选项D的意思是,不要因为想舍弃某物不好的地方而丢掉了宝贵的部分,符合题意。故选D。

A
In movies and books, people often describe a decisive moment when they figure out who they are. However, I never thought it actually happened in real life. I never expected to have a “moment” of my own. When it arrived, mine was much more powerful than I could have ever imagined.
During the spring of my junior year, my class watched a documentary called The Invisible Children. It was about three college students who took a trip to Africa and documented their experience. At first the film was slightly humorous. However, once the group arrived in northern Uganda, the mood changed. They learned what the consequences of a 23-year war had been for thousands of children. Some had lost family and friends, and others were caught by the opposing force and became child soldiers.
Before long, I was sobbing. I couldn’t believe these things were happening, yet at the same time I knew they were. I just hadn’t been paying attention, for in the past 17 years, I was blessedly protected. When the movie ended, I couldn’t get it out of my head. For the next week, I was not myself. Every bite of food I took, I thought of Grace, the 15-year-old who had little to eat. When I went to bed, I pictured Sunday, the 14-year-old boy, sleeping on a straw mat on the ground in a camp. My whole world shifted.
Since that day, I haven’t been able to picture my future in a way that doesn’t involve going to Africa and doing what I can to help. Ultimately, this is why I decided to major in engineering. With an engineering degree, my potential for change will be limitless. I will build wells and schools, and design irrigation systems. Engineering is tough, but I know—in what Yeats called “my deep heart’s call”—that this is what I’m supposed to do with my life.

Escape to a New Life—everyone’s dream
A TV series in Wales has become a heated issue by becoming the number one choice for teenagers to watch.
The main character is a young farmer and the series is about country life, making the popularity of the series all the more surprising. The series is calm and relaxing and really the opposite to city life. Escape to a New Life describes the Welsh countryside as a beautiful and peaceful place and its people as very caring and happy.
The series director believes that this is what young people want today. She says the success of the series is because teenagers want a happier and healthier life away from the pressures of deadlines and exams. She figures this series offers a form of escape from their fast and stressful lives.
Despite this, many parents and teachers are worried about the effect this is having on young people. Parents report that their children are just watching this series and neglecting everything else, using Escape to a New Life as an excuse for not completing homework, or refusing to revise for exams, citing a need for a happier and less stressful life.
One father, Paul McGregor, said his daughter Charlotte had changed a lot. He said, “She used to be in the school athletics team and loved the javelin, but now she only wants to watch the TV series and has been dropped from the team. She no longer completes her homework, saying it doesn’t matter as she just wants to ‘escape to a new life’.”
Paediatrician, Dr Elisa Carhart who specialises in child mental health, says that TV can influence young people’s decisions in life, but believes that if a young person reacts as strongly as Charlotte, it’s likely there are other reasons for the change in her behaviour.
( )5.What is the TV series Escape to a New Life mainly about
A.How people escape from city life.
B.How a Welsh farmer lives his life.
C.How teenagers balance work and life.
D.How the young live a relaxing life.
( )6.Which is closest in meaning to “neglecting” in Paragraph 4
A.Paying no attention to.
B.Making the most of.
C.Feeling at home with.
D.Complaining about.
( )7.What is probably Paul McGregor’s attitude towards the TV series
A.Unfavourable. B.Supportive.
C.Unclear. D.Forgiving.
( )8.What can we learn from Dr Elisa Carhart’s words
A.One should not jump in with both feet.
B.One man’s meat is another man’s poison.
C.We’d better be a rainbow in somebody else’s cloud.
D.We should not throw the baby out with the bathwater.

A
In movies and books, people often describe a decisive moment
when they figure out who they are. However, I never thought it
actually happened in real life. I never expected to have a
“moment” of my own. When it arrived, mine was much more
powerful than I could have ever imagined.
During the spring of my junior year, my class watched a
documentary called The Invisible Children.

It was about three college students who took a trip to Africa and
documented their experience. At first the film was slightly
humorous. However, once the group arrived in northern Uganda,
the mood changed. They learned what the consequences of a 23-
year war had been for thousands of children. Some had lost family
and friends, and others were caught by the opposing force and
became child soldiers.
Before long, I was sobbing. I couldn't believe these things were
happening, yet at the same time I knew they were.

I just hadn't been paying attention, for in the past 17 years, I was
blessedly protected. When the movie ended, I couldn't get it out
of my head. For the next week, I was not myself. Every bite of
food I took, I thought of Grace, the 15-year-old who had little to
eat. When I went to bed, I pictured Sunday, the 14-year-old boy,
sleeping on a straw mat on the ground in a camp. My whole
world shifted.
Since that day, I haven't been able to picture my future in a
way that doesn't involve going to Africa and doing what I can to

help. Ultimately, this is why I decided to major in engineering.
With an engineering degree, my potential for change will be
limitless. I will build wells and schools, and design irrigation
systems. Engineering is tough, but I know—in what Yeats called
“my deep heart's call”—that this is what I'm supposed to do
with my life.

Escape to a New Life—everyone's dream
A TV series in Wales has become a heated issue by becoming
the number one choice for teenagers to watch.
The main character is a young farmer and the series is about
country life, making the popularity of the series all the more
surprising. The series is calm and relaxing and really the opposite
to city life. Escape to a New Life describes the Welsh countryside
as a beautiful and peaceful place and its people as very caring and
happy.

The series director believes that this is what young people
want today. She says the success of the series is because teenagers
want a happier and healthier life away from the pressures of
deadlines and exams. She figures this series offers a form of
escape from their fast and stressful lives.
Despite this, many parents and teachers are worried about the
effect this is having on young people. Parents report that their
children are just watching this series and neglecting everything else,
using Escape to a New Life as an excuse for not completing

homework, or refusing to revise for exams, citing a need for a
happier and less stressful life.
One father, Paul McGregor, said his daughter Charlotte had
changed a lot. He said, “She used to be in the school athletics
team and loved the javelin, but now she only wants to watch the
TV series and has been dropped from the team. She no longer
completes her homework， saying it doesn't matter as she just
wants to ‘escape to a new life’.”

Paediatrician, Dr Elisa Carhart who specialises in child mental

but believes that if a young person reacts as strongly as Charlotte,
it's likely there are other reasons for the change in her behaviour.

[解析] 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“The main character is a young

effect this is having on young people.”以及画线词后的句子“…using
Escape to a New Life as an excuse for not completing homework,
or refusing to revise for exams, citing a need for a happier and
less stressful life.”可知，这个电视剧为青少年提供了一种逃离快节奏和紧
张生活的方式，学生以此为借口不复习考试，所以此处指的是只看电视剧而忽
视了其他事情。所以此处画线词意为“忽视”，与paying no attention to
意义接近。故选A。

she only wants to watch the TV series and has been dropped from

为电视影响着年轻人生活中的决定，但是如果决定过于偏激，可能存在其他影
响因素，所以不能一概地说电视剧的坏处，而忽视了其中宝贵的部分。选项D
的意思是，不要因为想舍弃某物不好的地方而丢掉了宝贵的部分，符合题意。
故选D。
