Question

【題目】 Have you ever been afraid? Do thunder and lightning make your heart beat faster? Maybe your mouth goes dry when your teacher says you will be given a test, or your palms（手掌）sweat when it’s your turn to give your report in front of the class. Perhaps you get butterflies in your stomach when you see the bully (欺負(fù)人的人) who chooses you.

We all have fears sometimes. That’s true no matter how big we are or how brave we can be. Fear of getting too close to a campfire may save you from a bad burn. And fear of getting a bad grade on a test may make you study hard. Being nervous can also sharpen your senses and help you perform better during a track meet. Some people even enjoy being a little scared. That’s why they like to watch scary movies.

Usually, our bodies go into fight only when there is something to fear. However, sometimes this happens when there doesn’t seem to be anything to be frightened about. When you feel scared but there doesn’t seem to be a clear reason, that’s called anxiety. For some kids, the feeling of anxiety or worry can happen at any time. For others, it might appear only at certain times, like when they are leaving their home or family to go somewhere. For some people, this feeling of anxiety happens almost all the time and gets in the way of what they want to do.

Tell your parents if your anxiety becomes strong and is getting in the way of what you want to do. Your parents can take you to a doctor, who can help to find out if a medical problem is making you feel anxious. But you can also try these ways to kill the feeling yourself.

【解析】

本文介紹了你是否曾經(jīng)害怕過(guò)？雷電會(huì)讓你的心跳得更快嗎？當(dāng)你的老師說(shuō)你會(huì)被給予測(cè)試，或者你的就有掌心汗水，當(dāng)輪到你在課前做報(bào)告時(shí)，你的嘴就會(huì)變干。當(dāng)你看到仗勢(shì)欺人者的時(shí)候，也許你就會(huì)緊張不安。本文以此展開談?wù)�，主要談�(wù)摿丝謶旨捌溆绊憽?/span>

【1】詞義猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)上下文可知“Perhaps you get butterflies in your stomach when you see the bully（仗勢(shì)欺人者）who chooses you.”句意為：當(dāng)你看到仗勢(shì)欺人者選擇你時(shí)，也許你會(huì)不安。故get butterflies in your stomach意為“感到緊張不安”。故選B。

【2】推理判斷題。根據(jù)“Fear of getting too close to a campfire may save you from a bad burn. And fear of getting a bad grade on a test may make you study hard. Being nervous can also sharpen your senses and help you perform better during a track meet. Some people even enjoy being a little scared. That’s why they like to watch scary movies.”可知，害怕離營(yíng)火太近可能會(huì)使你免于嚴(yán)重?zé)齻�。害怕考試成�?jī)不好可能會(huì)使你努力學(xué)習(xí)。緊張也能使你的感官敏銳，幫助你在田徑比賽中表現(xiàn)得更好。有些人甚至喜歡被嚇到。所以他們喜歡看恐怖電影。故此段告訴了我們：恐懼有時(shí)會(huì)對(duì)人有好處。故選D。

【3】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)“When you feel scared but there doesn’t seem to be a clear reason, that’s called anxiety.”可知，當(dāng)你感到害怕，但似乎沒(méi)有一個(gè)明確的原因，這就是焦慮。故選D。

【4】推理判斷題。根據(jù)“But you can also try these ways to kill the feeling yourself.”可以推測(cè)出，下文會(huì)講述處理恐懼的一些方法。故選C。

本題的第1小題是詞義猜測(cè)題。詞義猜測(cè)題是閱讀理解中常見(jiàn)的一種題型，所猜測(cè)詞匯可以是生詞，也可以是熟詞新義，還可以是人稱代詞的指代內(nèi)容。詞義猜測(cè)題主要考查考生根據(jù)上下文推測(cè)詞義和語(yǔ)義的能力，突出考查對(duì)語(yǔ)境的分析和把握能力。本題可以利用上下文語(yǔ)境來(lái)猜測(cè)詞意。猜測(cè)任何詞義都離不開上下文，所以要借助上下文對(duì)需要猜測(cè)的詞或短語(yǔ)進(jìn)行合乎邏輯的推測(cè)。
