Question

【題目】 After sitting in a wheelchair for tens of years, Stephen William Hawking, one of the greatest scientists in this age, died in March 2018. Hundreds of thousands of people showed their love and admiration (敬佩) for Hawk.

Although he made a great contribution (貢獻(xiàn)) to science, he was not special at all when he was young. From the school report in Hawking’s childhood, he made no difference with common children, or even worse. Once, his mom asked him, “Darling, are you really weak at study?” He felt embarrassed and answered, “Em... the others are the same.”

He was not born in a rich family which could offer him expensive car or large house, however, his parents insisted (堅(jiān)持) that children needed to read more books. It made Hawking a thoughtful and knowledgeable person.

After he got sick seriously, people thought he might die at any time. Unexpectedly, he lived another 50 years and continued his world-shaking discoveries. At the same time, Hawking lived a colorful life. He liked to hang out, such as celebrating his birthday in a hot air balloon, diving (潛水) to enjoy views in the deep sea, and so on. He never got tired of playing roles in movies and series and traveled around the world to give talks. He even signed up an account (賬戶) on Weibo in China and talked with youths.

Hawking’s three children see their father as this: He is as curious (好奇的) as children who have interest in the outside world. He encourages questions from his children, even the ones that sound very stupid. He is aggressive (進(jìn)取的). He never stops searching for subjects he likes and makes a great effort for them. He is fun. From his mouth; difficult astrophysics (天體物理學(xué)) turns fresh and alive. That is a real Hawking.

【1】What is Hawking like in his children’s eye?

Answer 1

【答案】

【1】B

【2】A

【3】D

【4】C

【解析】

短文大意：本文是記敘文，講述了著名科學(xué)家霍金普通的童年和患病后豐富多彩的生活。

【1】題意：霍金在孩子們眼中是什么樣子?考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)Hawking’s three children see their father as this: He is as curious (好奇的) as children…He is aggressive (進(jìn)取的)…He is fun.可知三個(gè)孩子認(rèn)為父親好奇、好斗也很有趣，故選B。

【2】題意：如果我們把這篇文章分成三個(gè)部分，下面哪個(gè)是最好的?考查結(jié)構(gòu)理解。根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容可知是“總分總”結(jié)構(gòu)，第一段總說科學(xué)家霍金在輪椅上奮斗了幾十年，第二、三、四段具體介紹霍金普通的童年和患病后豐富多彩的生活，最后以孩子對(duì)父親的印象總結(jié)霍金的特點(diǎn)。故選A。

【3】題意：通過這篇文章，我們可以推斷出________。考查推理判斷。A. 霍金年輕時(shí)很普通。B. 霍金頭腦堅(jiān)強(qiáng)，身體強(qiáng)壯。C. 霍金對(duì)科學(xué)做出了巨大貢獻(xiàn)。D. 霍金的父母很聰明，有遠(yuǎn)見卓識(shí)。根據(jù)From the school report in Hawking’s childhood, he made no difference with common children, or even worse. 他與普通孩子沒有區(qū)別，甚至更糟，可知AB說法錯(cuò)誤。根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，本文介紹的是與疾病抗?fàn)幍幕艚�，并沒有介紹他的科學(xué)成就，C項(xiàng)說法錯(cuò)誤。根據(jù)however, his parents insisted (堅(jiān)持) that children needed to read more books. It made Hawking a thoughtful and knowledgeable person.他的父母堅(jiān)持認(rèn)為孩子需要讀更多的書，這使霍金成為一個(gè)深思熟慮和知識(shí)淵博的人，可知霍金的父母很有遠(yuǎn)見卓識(shí)，Hawking’s parents were wise and of great vision符合題意，故選D。

【4】題意：這篇文章最好的標(biāo)題是________�？疾闃�(biāo)題歸納。A. 霍金豐富多彩的生活。B .霍金震撼世界的發(fā)現(xiàn)。C. 除了超級(jí)大腦，霍金還擁有什么？D. 在世界的眼中，霍金是什么樣的？根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，本文介紹了作為科學(xué)巨匠之外的霍金，沒有介紹他的科學(xué)成就，第四段介紹他豐富多彩的生活，最后一段介紹孩子們眼中的霍金，可知ABD三項(xiàng)說法錯(cuò)誤或片面，What does Hawking have except super brain? 符合文意，故選C。
