感悟新题型(概要写作)
阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
A man may usually be known by the books he reads as well as by the company he keeps; for there is a companionship of books as well as of men; and one should always live in the best company，whether it be of books or of men.
A good book may be among the best of friends. It is the same today that it always was，and it will never change. It is the most patient and cheerful of companions. It does not turn its back upon us in times of adversity or distress. It always receives us with the same kindness; amusing and instructing us in youth，and comforting and consoling us in age.
Men often discover their affinity (关系) to each other by the mutual love they have for a book just as two persons sometimes discover a friend by the admiration which both entertain for a third. There is an old proverb，“Love me，love my dog.” But there is more wisdom in this：
“Love me，love my book.” The book is a truer and higher bond of union. Men can think，feel，and sympathize with each other through their favorite author. They live in him together，and he in them.
Books possess an essence of immortality. They are by far the most lasting products of human effort. Temples and statues decay，but books survive. Time is of no account with great thoughts，which are as fresh today as when they first passed through their author's minds，ages ago. What was then said and thought still speaks to us as vividly as ever from the printed page. The only effect of time has been to sift out (筛选) the bad products; for nothing in literature can long survive but what is really good.
The great and good do not die，even in this world. Embalmed in books，their spirits walk abroad. The book is a living voice. It is an intellect to which one still listens.

1．A.miss B．avoid
C．fail D．catch
解析：选A。从语境得知，海伦是在赶公交车的时候出了事故。此处表示为了不错过公交车，她朝公交车跑去。
2．A.inside B．beside
C．under D．before
解析：选C。海伦倒在了公交车的后轮下面，由此被轧成重伤。inside“在里面”，beside“在旁边”，before“在……前”，都不符合语境。
3．A.endured B．survived
C．passed D．escaped
解析：选B。从下文看，海伦幸免于难，从车祸中活了下来。
4．A.experience B．heart
C．lesson D．mind
解析：选D。在作者13岁的“头脑”中，……。mind侧重“思维”，heart侧重“情感”。
5．A.learn B．live
C．talk D．walk
解析：选B。因为海伦受了重伤，所以作者认为她从此不能再过正常生活了。
6．A.worried B．moved
C．forgot D．grew
解析：选B。从下文作者和海伦16年没有见面，见面的时候是在佛罗里达，而小的时候她是在俄亥俄州判断，作者搬了家。
7．A.hit B．run
C．thrown D．knocked
解析：选A。作者的儿子被车撞了，hit表示“撞”。也可用knock down表示，但knock“敲”不表示此意。
8．A.deep B．serious
C．slight D．little
解析：选B。由最后儿子竟不可思议地康复了可判断，当时作者的儿子伤势严重。
9．A.social B．part
C．extra D．free
解析：选A。从下文海伦所做的事情以及所说的话判断，她是社会工作者，因此用social worker。其他选项不符合逻辑。
10．A.hurried B．dropped
C．rolled D．looked
解析：选C。海伦坐在轮椅上，因此是划着轮椅进来。roll“滚动”。
11．A.already B．still
C．almost D．hardly
解析：选B。虽然16年没有见面，但作者还是认出了海伦。still“仍然”。
12．A.got through B．got back
C．got off D．got into
解析：选A。get through在此处的意思是“度过(艰难或不愉快的一段时间)”。
13．A.when B．before
C．since D．until
解析：选C。海伦讲了两人最后一次见面以后的情况。
14．A.so that B．in case
C．as if D．even though
解析：选A。so that引导目的状语从句，当“以便”讲，符合句意。
15．A.experienced B．happy
C．healthy D．fortunate
解析：选D。海伦是一个社会工作者，帮助那些她认为比自己还不幸的人。此处海伦用不如她“幸运的”人，说明海伦的乐观和坚强。
16．A.help B．hope
C．advice D．courage
解析：选B。下文有提示，“哪里有生命，哪里就有希望”。
17．A.great B．encouraged
C．hopeful D．small
解析：选D。跟海伦相比，作者感到自己很“渺小”。feel great“感觉良好”，显然不符合上下文的逻辑；B、C两项与后面的转折词but矛盾。
18．A.true B．last
C．most D．first
解析：选D。作者受到了鼓舞，自得知儿子受伤后第一次感觉到了希望。
19．A.suffering B．pleasure
C．quality D．meaning
解析：选C。结合第一段最后一句作者认为海伦不能正常生活可知，与之相呼应的应是作者原来认为像海伦这样的残疾人来说生活没有质量可言。
20．A.appreciation B．awareness
C．debt D．success
解析：选C。从后面的动词repay可以断定，应选debt“人情债”。此处为引申意义：海伦对作者的鼓舞，是作者永远也无法偿还的“恩情”。

感悟新题型(概要写作)
阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
A man may usually be known by the books he reads as well as by the company he keeps; for there is a companionship of books as well as of men; and one should always live in the best company，whether it be of books or of men.
A good book may be among the best of friends.It is the same today that it always was，and it will never change.It is the most patient and cheerful of companions.It does not turn its back upon us in times of adversity or distress.It always receives us with the same kindness; amusing and instructing us in youth，and comforting and consoling us in age.
Men often discover their affinity (关系) to each other by the mutual love they have for a book just as two persons sometimes discover a friend by the admiration which both entertain for a third.There is an old proverb，“Love me，love my dog.” But there is more wisdom in this：
“Love me，love my book.” The book is a truer and higher bond of union.Men can think，feel，and sympathize with each other through their favorite author.They live in him together，and he in them.
Books possess an essence of immortality.They are by far the most lasting products of human effort.Temples and statues decay，but books survive.Time is of no account with great thoughts，which are as fresh today as when they first passed through their author's minds，ages ago.What was then said and thought still speaks to us as vividly as ever from the printed page.The only effect of time has been to sift out (筛选) the bad products; for nothing in literature can long survive but what is really good.
The great and good do not die，even in this world.Embalmed in books，their spirits walk abroad.The book is a living voice.It is an intellect to which one still listens.
