Question

long ago people made fires from lightning(閃電)。 But they had to keep the fire burning, for they couldn’t start it again if there was no lightning. Later, they found out hitting two piece of stone together could make a spark (火花). The spark could fire dry leaves. In this way they could make the fire again if it went out. Then people also learned to make a fire by rubbing. They made a hole on a big piece of wood and put a smaller stick into the hole. They turned the stick again and again. After a few minutes they got a fire.
As years went by, people learned other ways to make a fire. Sometimes they used the heat from sun. they held a piece of glass in the right way and made a piece of paper on fire.
About two centuries ago, people began to make matches (火柴). Matches brought people a quick and easy way to make fire. Today matches are still being used, but people have more new ways to make fires. One of them is to use an electric fire starter. Of course an electric fire starter is much more expensive than a box of matches. But it is more useful.

【小題1】C
【小題2】D
【小題3】B
【小題4】D
【小題5】C

解析試題分析：古代的人們經(jīng)常利用閃電來取火,但那時(shí)必須讓火一直燃燒,否則沒有了雷電就沒有了火源.后來人們學(xué)會(huì)了火石打火,鉆木取火聚焦取火等.后來又發(fā)明了火柴.當(dāng)今世界最流行的就是電子打火.
【小題1】細(xì)節(jié)理解題，根據(jù)文中語句“Later, they found out hitting two piece of stone together could make a spark (火花). The spark could fire dry leaves.”理解可知。火花可以點(diǎn)燃干枯的樹葉,故選C.
【小題2】細(xì)節(jié)理解題，根據(jù)文中語句They made a hole on a big piece of wood and put a smaller stick into the hole. They turned the stick again and again. After a few minutes they got a fire.理解可知，鉆木取火的過程，故選D。
【小題3】細(xì)節(jié)理解題，根據(jù)文中語句“About two centuries ago, people began to make matches (火柴).”理解可知。火柴的應(yīng)用出現(xiàn)在聚焦取火以后,已有200多年的歷史了,故選B
【小題4】理解歸納題，根據(jù)文中語句理解可知,現(xiàn)在很多的森林火災(zāi)都是雷電引起的,故選D。
【小題5】理解總結(jié)題，根據(jù)文中語句理解可知人類取火的大致過程是雷電取火,火石取火,鉆木取火,聚焦取火,火柴和電子打火器,故選C。
考點(diǎn)：有關(guān)取火發(fā)展史的說明文
點(diǎn)評(píng)：首先要要讀懂全文，弄清文章要表達(dá)的思想，注意文中前后段落之間的關(guān)系。答題中，一定要認(rèn)真分析，注意選項(xiàng)與上下文的關(guān)系，與前后單詞的關(guān)系。對(duì)于一時(shí)沒有太大的把握的題可以放到最后再來完成，因?yàn)橛袝r(shí)答案可以從下文內(nèi)容體現(xiàn)出來。答完后再通讀一篇文章，看看所選選項(xiàng)能不能是語句通順，語意連貫。
