Ⅰ.阅读理解

A

Shay asked, “Do you think they’ll let me play?” Shay’s father knew that most of the boys would not want someone like Shay on their team, but the father also understood that if his son, mentally and physically disabled, were allowed to play, it would give him a much-needed sense of belonging and some confidence.

Shay’s father approached one of the boys on the field and asked if Shay could play, not expecting much. The boy looked around and said, “We’re losing by six runs (分) and the game is in the eighth inning (局).I guess he can be on our team and we’ll try to put him in to bat in the final inning.

Shay struggled over to the team’s bench and put on a team shirt with a broad smile and his father had a small tear in his eye and warmth in heart. The boys saw the father’s joy at his son being accepted.

In the bottom of the eighth inning, Shay’s team scored a few runs but was still behind by three. In the top of the final inning, Shay put on a glove and played in the field. Even though no hits came his way, he was obviously joyful just to be in the game and on the field. In the bottom of the final inning, Shay’s team scored again. Now, Shay was scheduled to be next at bat. Would they let Shay bat and give away their chance to win the game?

Surprisingly, Shay was given the bat. Everyone knew that a hit was almost impossible. The first pitch (投) came and Shay missed. The pitcher again took a few steps forward to throw the ball softly towards Shay. As the pitch came in, Shay swung at the ball and hit a slow ground ball right back to the pitcher.

The pitcher could have easily thrown he ball to the first baseman and Shay would have been out and that would have been the end of the game .Instead, the pitcher threw the ball right over the head of the first baseman, beyond the reach of all teammates, The audience and the players from both teams started screaming, “Shay, run to first!” Never in his life had Shay ever run that far but made it to first base, wide-eyed and shocked.

Everyone should, “Run to second!” Catching his breath, Shay awkwardly ran towards second. By the time Shay rounded towards second base, the smallest guy on their team, who had a chance to be the hero for his team for the first time, could have thrown the ball to the second baseman, but he understood the pitcher’s intentions and he too intentionally threw the ball high and far over the third baseman’s head.

All were screaming，“Shay，Shay，Shay，all the way Shay.” Shay reached third base when one opposing player ran to help him and shouted, “Shay, run to third.” As Shay rounded third, all were on their feet, crying, “Shay, run home!”Shay ran to home, stepped on the home base and was cheered as the hero who t won the game for his team.

That day, the boys from both teams helped bring a piece true love and humanity into this world. Shay didn’t make it to another summer and died that winter, having never forgotten being the hero and making his father so happy and coming home and seeing his mother tearfully hug her little hero of the day!

本篇文章是一篇关于爱的教育的故事。一位父亲鼓励帮助自己心智和身体残疾的儿子，和正常人一样参与棒球运动，并且得到同伴的认可。文章富有教育意义。

1. 细节题。 根据题干关键词定位到文章第一段，but处出题，最后一句”it would give him a much-needed sense of belonging and some confidence”得出答案D为正确选项。

2.细节题。答案在原文第五段surprisingly处，显示了一种转折。在上一段讲了Shay的团队赢分了，在上文even though点出尽管他没有一个球是他进的，但他仍然感到很喜悦。在第五段文章说他被伙伴们同意进入了最后一局。可见答案B是正确的，所有人都希望能够帮助他成功。

3. 细节题。根据题干将关键词定位到第七段”the smallest guy on their team”，这是个长难句，who引导了一个非限制性定语从句，他本可以成为比赛最后的hero,可but 点出了转折，他明白pitcher的意图并且帮助了Shay的成功。可见答案A正确。

4.推断题。题干问下面哪一项是和Shay的成功无关的。文章第八段最后说众人喊道: “Shay, run home”,当他run home之后，我们看到结果是他成功了，他成为了Hero，可见没有任何人在这个时候阻止了他。可见C选项是与他的成功无关的，为正确选项。

5. 主旨大意题。文章处处渗透了球队人与人之间的相互尊重，因此A选项包容性最大， B,C,D都是很片面的。

B

(2016·洛阳市统一考试)Some people like modern art, while others say that is rubbish.But a cleaner who works in the Tate Gallery in London isn't able to tell the difference.The woman, whose name isn't known, mistook a work of art by the German painter Gustav Metzger for a bag of rubbish, and threw it out with other bags. The plastic bag, which contained pieces of paper and cardboard, was later recovered outside the gallery, but the artist thought that it was too damaged to be put on show again. 78­year­old Mr Metzger explained that the exhibit, which he said was a copy of a similar work he had created in 1960, was meant to show that all art is temporary and “finite (有限的)”.

Embarrassed officials at the museum said that they had had to call a meeting with cleaners to explain which things should not be touched. They would not say whether Mr Metzger would be paid any compensation for the incident. However, to make absolutely sure the same thing would not happen again, they decided to cover Mr Metzger's work every evening with a coloured cloth. In this way the cleaners arriving after the gallery had been closed to the general public would realize they should not touch it.

This is not the first time that museum cleaners have had trouble distinguishing exhibits from rubbish. In 2001, in another London gallery, a cleaner threw away a work by the well­known British artist Damien Hirst. It was an arrangement of empty beer bottles, coffee cups, and overflowing ashtrays, which were meant to indicate the chaos in the life of an artist.

However, cleaners don't always throw things away — sometimes they clean them! This was the case with a dirty bath, which was on show in a gallery in Germany. Without asking what the bath was doing in the gallery, the cleaners simply scrubbed it clean.

1.The officials of the museum covered Mr Metzger's work so that ________.

A.the visitors couldn't get close in the evening

B.they could get recovered soon

C.the cleaners wouldn't make the same mistake

D.they would return to normal

2.Which of the following is NOT true?

A.People have different opinions on modern art.

B.Mr Metzger would be paid much compensation.

C.A work of Damien Hirst was thrown away by a cleaner in 2001.

D.Some modern work is about the chaos of an artist's life.

3.The last paragraph is written to show that________.

A.cleaners often make exhibits as clean as possible

B.cleaners can't always differ exhibits from rubbish

C.exhibits are usually difficult to clean

D.exhibits are not always so beautiful

4.What's the best title of the passage?

A.Cleaners mistake modern art for rubbish

B.Modern art shouldn't be cleaned

C.What makes a great work of art

D.Cleaners don't always throw things away

1.解析：选C　细节理解题根据第二段中的“However, to make absolutely sure the same thing would not happen again, they decided to cover ... with a coloured cloth.”可知他们这样做的目的是避免清洁工再次犯同样的错误即C项正确解析：选B　细节理解题根据第一段的第一句可知A项表述正确;根据第二段的第二句可知B项表述错误;根据第三段的第二句和最后一句可知CD两项表述正确故选B项解析：选B　推理判断题最后一段通过讲述清洁工误把现代艺术作品当成脏东西而擦掉的事来说明清洁工并不总是能分清现代艺术作品与垃圾即B项正确解析：选A　标题归纳题文章开头的前两句话点明了主题然后全文都是围绕清洁工误把现代艺术作品当成垃圾展开叙述的即A项正确

Some years ago on a hot summer day in south Florida a little boy decided to go for a swim in the old swimming lake behind his house.

In a hurry to dive into the cool water，he ran out the back door，leaving behind his shoes，socks，and shirt as he went.He flew into the water，not realizing that as he swam toward the middle of the lake，an alligator (鳄鱼) was swimming toward the shore.

His mother in the house was looking out of the window and saw the two as they got closer and closer.In extreme fear，she ran toward the water，yelling to her son as loudly as she could.Hearing her voice，the little boy became alarmed and made a U­turn to swim to his mother.It was too late.Just as he reached her，the alligator reached him.

From the dock (码头)，the mother grabbed her little boy by the arms just as the alligator snatched his legs.That began an incredible tug­of­war (拔河).The alligator was much stronger than the mother，but the mother was much too passionate (感情强烈的).A farmer happened to drive by，took aim and shot the alligator.

After weeks and weeks in the hospital，the little boy survived.The newspaper reporter asked if he would show him his scars.The boy lifted his legs，then，with obvious pride，he said to the reporter，“But look at my arms.I have great scars on my arms，too.I have them because my mom wouldn’t let go.”
