Question

【題目】閱讀下面短文，根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容回答文后問題。

Once, a student complained to his teacher about his unhappy life. The teacher decided to teach him a lesson.

One day, he asked the student to get some salt and a glass of water.

The student returned with a glass of clean water and a handful of salt. The teacher asked the young man to put the salt into the glass and drink it.

"How does it taste?” the teacher asked.

"It tastes bitter (味苦的),” the student replied.

The teacher didn't say anything else, but asked the young man to get the same amount (數(shù)量) of salt and follow the teacher to a nearby lake.

"Put the salt into the lake,” the teacher said. The young man did what the teacher said.

"Now, taste the water from the lake,” the teacher said.

As the water dropped down the young man’s chin, the teacher asked, “How does it taste?”

"Fresh and a bit sweet,” the student said.

"Do you taste the salt?” the teacher asked.

"No,” the young man shook his head.

The teacher sat beside the young man and said, “The pain of life is like salt — no more, no less. However, the amount of bitterness you taste depends on the container (容器) you put the pain in.” The amount of pain in life stays exactly the same. So when you are in pain, the only thing to do is to open up the mind. Stop being a glass, become a lake.

閱讀短文回答問題，即根據(jù)文章的表層意思進(jìn)行深層次的推理判斷，組織語言回答問題。首先要粗讀文章了解大意，其次通過細(xì)讀，理解全文。在粗讀的基礎(chǔ)上，仔細(xì)閱讀題后所給的題目，根據(jù)題目要求，再有重點(diǎn)地返回來仔細(xì)閱讀。在閱讀時(shí)要注意辨認(rèn)和記憶具體事實(shí)、重要情節(jié)、事物的起因、過程、結(jié)果及發(fā)生的地點(diǎn)、時(shí)間等，這對(duì)題目的判斷至關(guān)重要，需要考生綜合所有的細(xì)節(jié)來理解把握。例如小題1，問學(xué)生向老師抱怨了什么？考查細(xì)節(jié)理解；根據(jù)“Once, a student complained to his teacher about his unhappy life”可知抱怨的是他不快樂的生活，故填His unhappy life.。
