(2016高考訓(xùn)練)閱讀下列材料,從每題所給的選項中選出最佳選項。
“OK,” I said to my daughter as she bent over her afternoon bowl of rice.“What's going on with you and your friend J.?” J.is the leader of a group of third-graders at her camp—a position Lucy herself occupied the previous summer.
Now she's__the__one__on__the__outs,and every day at snack time,she tells me all about it,while I offer the unhelpful advice all summer long.
“She's fond of giving orders,” Lucy complained.“She's turning everyone against me.She's mean.She's bad at math.She's terrible at kickball.And she's fat.”“Excuse me,”I said,struggling for calm.“What did you just say?”“She's fat,” Lucy mumbled(含糊地說)into her bowl.“We are going upstairs,” I said,my voice cold,“We are going to discuss this.” And up we went.
I'd spent the nine years since her birth getting ready for this day,the day we'd have to have the conversation about this horrible word.I knew exactly what to say to the girl on the receiving end of the teasing(嘲笑),but in all of my imaginings,it never once occurred to me that my daughter would be the one who used the F word—Fat.
My daughter sat on her bed,and I sat beside her.“How would you feel if someone made fun of you for something that wasn't your fault?”I began.“She could stop eating so much,”Lucy mumbled,mouthing the simple advice a thousand doctors and well-meaning friends and relatives have given overweight women for years.
“It's not always that easy,”I said.“Everyone's different in terms of how they treat food.” Lucy looked at me,waiting for me to go on.I opened my mouth,then closed it.Should I tell her that,in teasing a woman's weight,she's joined the long,proud tradition of critics who go after any woman with whom they disagree by starting with “you're ugly” and ending with“no man would want you and there must be something wrong with any man who does”?Should I tell her I didn't cry when someone posted my picture and commented,“I'm sorry,but aren't authors who write books marketed to young women supposed to be pretty?”?
Does she need to know,now,that life isn't fair? I feel her eyes on me,waiting for an answer I don't have.Words are my tools.Stories are my job.It's possible she'll remember what I say forever,and I have no idea what to say.
So I tell her the only thing I can come up with that is absolutely true.I say to my daughter,“I love you,and there is nothing you could ever do to make me not love you.But I'm disappointed in you right now.There are plenty of reasons for not liking someone.What she looks like isn't one of them.”
Lucy nods,tears on her cheeks.“I won't say that again,”she tells me,and I pull her close,pressing my nose against her hair.We are both quiet,and I don't know if I have said the right thing.So as we sit there together,shoulder to shoulder,I pray for her to be smart.I pray for her to be strong.I pray for her to find friends,work she loves,a partner who loves her,and for the world not to deprive(剝奪)her of the things that make her who she is,for her life to be easy,and for her to have the strength to handle it when it's not.And still,always,I pray that she will never struggle as I've struggled,that weight will never be her cross to bear.She may not be able to use the word in our home,but I can use it in my head.I pray that she will never get fat.

閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的四個選項(A、B、C和D)中,選出最佳選項。
(Religion and Rationality)
? ?Yet the difference in tome and language must strike us, so soon as it is philosophy that speaks: that change should remind us that even if the function of religion and that of reason coincide, this function is performed in the two cases by very different organs. Religions are many, reason one. Religion consists of conscious ideas, hopes, enthusiasms, and objects of worship; it operates by grace and flourishes by prayer. Reason, on the other hand, is a mere principle or potential order, on which indeed we may come to reflect but which exists in us ideally only, without variation or stress of any kind. We conform or do not conform to it; it does not urge or chide us, not call for any emotions on our part other than those naturally aroused by the various objects which it unfolds in their true nature and proportion. Religion brings some order into life by weighting it with new materials. Reason adds to the natural materials only the perfect order which it introduces into them. Rationality is nothing but a form, an ideal constitution which experience may more or less embody. Religion is a part of experience itself, a mass of sentiments and ideas. The one is an inviolate principle, the other a changing and struggling force. And yet this struggling and changing force of religion seems to direct man toward something eternal. It seems to make for an ultimate harmony within the soul and for an ultimate harmony between the soul and all that the soul depends upon. Religion, in its intent, is a more conscious and direct pursuit of the Life of Reason than is society, science, or art, for these approach and fill out the ideal life tentatively and piecemeal, hardly regarding the foal or caring for the ultimate justification of the instinctive aims. Religion also has an instinctive and blind side and bubbles up in all manner of chance practices and intuitions; soon, however, it feels its way toward the heart of things, and from whatever quarter it may come, veers in the direction of the ultimate.
? ?Nevertheless, we must confess that this religious pursuit of the Life of Reason has been singularly abortive. Those within the pale of each religion may prevail upon themselves, to express satisfaction with its results, thanks to a fond partiality in reading the past and generous draughts of hope for the future; but any one regarding the various religions at once and comparing their achievements with what reason requires, must feel how terrible is the disappointment which they have one and all prepared for mankind. Their chief anxiety has been to offer imaginary remedies for mortal ills, some of which are incurable essentially, while others might have been really cured by well-directed effort. The Greed oracles, for instance, pretended to heal out natural ignorance, which has its appropriate though difficult cure, while the Christian vision of heaven pretended to be an antidote to our natural death—the inevitable correlate of birth and of a changing and conditioned existence. By methods of this sort little can be done for the real betterment of life. To confuse intelligence and dislocate sentiment by gratuitous fictions is a short-sighted way of pursuing happiness. Nature is soon avenged. An unhealthy exaltation and a one-sided morality have to be followed by regrettable reactions. When these come. The real rewards of life may seem vain to a relaxed vitality, and the very name of virtue may irritate young spirits untrained in and natural excellence. Thus religion too often debauches the morality it comes to sanction and impedes the science it ought to fulfill.
? ?What is the secret of this ineptitude? Why does religion, so near to rationality in its purpose, fall so short of it in its results? The answer is easy; religion pursues rationality through the imagination. When it explains events or assigns causes, it is an imaginative substitute for science. When it gives precepts, insinuates ideals, or remoulds aspiration, it is an imaginative substitute for wisdom—I mean for the deliberate and impartial pursuit of all food. The condition and the aims of life are both represented in religion poetically, but this poetry tends to arrogate to itself literal truth and moral authority, neither of which it possesses. Hence the depth and importance of religion becomes intelligible no less than its contradictions and practical disasters. Its object is the same as that of reason, but its method is to proceed by intuition and by unchecked poetical conceits.

[A]. the pursuit of rationality through imagination.

[C]. a purposeful and unbiased quest for what is best.
[D]. a short-sighted way of pursuing happiness
2. ? ? ?Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE?

. Religion has proved an ineffective tool in solving man’s problems.
[C]. Science seeks a piece meal solution to man’s questions.
[D]. The functions of philosophy and reason are the same.
3. ? ? ?According to the author, science differs from religion in that
[A]. it is unaware of ultimate goals. ? ?? ?? ?? ? . it is unimaginative.
[C]. its findings are exact and final. ? ?? ?? ?? ? [D]. it resembles society and art.
4. ? ? ?The author states that religion differs from rationality in that
[A]. it relies on intuition rather than reasoning .
. it is not concerned with the ultimate justification of its instinctive aims.
[C]. it has disappointed mankind.
[D]. it has inspired mankind.
5. ? ? ?According to the author, the pursuit of religion has proved to be
[A]. imaginative. ? ?? ?? ?? ?? ?? ?? ?. a provider of hope for the future.
[C]. a highly intellectual activity ? ?? ?? [D]. ineffectual.

[參考譯文] ?可是音調(diào)和語言的差異必然很快的給我們深刻的印象,就象哲學(xué)所說的那樣:那種差異應(yīng)提鄉(xiāng)我們,即使宗教的功能和理性的功能恰好相符的話,其功能也是通過不同的器官在兩種不同的情況下完成的。
2. ? ? ?Reason, on the other hand, is a mere principle or potential order, on which indeed we may come to reflect but which exists in us ideally only, without variation or stress of any kind.
[參考譯文] ?另一方面,理性知識一種原則或者是潛在的秩序,我們確實可以在此基礎(chǔ)上存在于我們心中,沒有種種變化,或任何壓力。
3. ? ? ?We conform or do not conform to it; it does not urge or chide us, not call for any emotions on our part other than those naturally aroused by the various objects which it unfolds in their true nature and proportion.
[參考譯文] ?不論我們是否遵循理性,它不會極力或責(zé)備我們,除了以事物的本來面目和比例揭示各種事物而自然而然的激起我們的感情,它并不需要我們付出任何感情。
4. ? ? ?Religion, in its intent, is a more conscious and direct pursuit of the Life of Reason than is society, science, or art, for these approach and fill out the ideal life tentatively and piecemeal, hardly regarding the foal or caring for the ultimate justification of the instinctive aims.
[參考譯文] ?宗教在其意義上,比社會,科學(xué),藝術(shù)更自覺,更直接的追求“理性生活”,因為這些東西(社會,科學(xué),藝術(shù))暫時而又零星的接近和填補理想的生活,無視目的,也不管其本能的目標(biāo)是否最終證明正確。

寫作方法與文章大意
這是一篇用對比手法寫出宗教和理性之差異并著重描述宗教的文章。有各種中焦,理性只有一個,縱然兩者在功能和目的上有不相同之處,但由于宗教以直覺,想象力,情感為主,無視目的,雖比科學(xué),社會或藝術(shù)更自覺,更直接追求理性生活,結(jié)果卻是失敗和失望,而理性則相反。
答案祥解
1. ? ? ?C. ?一種有目的而又不帶偏見對最佳事物的探索。答案在最后一段,這種愚蠢的秘密是什么?為什么宗教在目的上那么接近真理,在其結(jié)構(gòu)和結(jié)果上,卻沒有理性的一切?答案很簡單:宗教是通過想象來追逐理性,當(dāng)它解釋事件或闡明原因時,以虛構(gòu)的想象來取代科學(xué),當(dāng)它訓(xùn)誡,暗示理想或者重塑抱負(fù)時,以想象代替智慧——智慧的意思是指有意識而又公正的追求一切好東西。
A. 通過想象力追求理性。 ? ?B. 不帶感情的探詢真理。 ? C. 追求幸福的短視的方法。
2. ? ? ?A. ?宗教通過想象力尋求真理,而理性的探索卻運用感情。見難句譯注3,理性(智)是非感情的。
B. 在解決人類問題上的宗教是一種無效的工具。 ? C. 科學(xué)尋求逐步解決對人類的問題。 ? ?D. 哲學(xué)和理性的功能是一樣的。
3. ? ? ?A. ?宗教沒有意識(不知道)其最終目的的。見難句譯注4,說明宗教不管(幾乎不關(guān)注)其目的,或不關(guān)心其本能的目標(biāo)最終真確與否。
B. 宗教沒有想象力。 ? C. 其成果是確切的,最終的。 ? D. 宗教很象科學(xué)和藝術(shù)。
4. ? ? ?D. ?它激起人類情感。第一段中說“宗教的掙扎與不斷變化的力量似乎促使人追求某種永恒的東西,它似乎追求靈魂的最終和諧以及靈魂與靈魂所依賴的一起事物之間的永恒的和諧?!?
A. 宗教依賴于直覺而不是推理。第一段最后一句:宗教也有本能和盲目的一面,在各種各樣的偶然實踐和直覺中沸騰??刹痪盟窒蚴挛飪?nèi)心摸索前進(jìn),然而不論從哪個方向來,都轉(zhuǎn)想最終方向(最終多轉(zhuǎn)想這個方向——直覺),文章的最后一句:宗教的目的和理想的目的一樣,而其實現(xiàn)目的方法是通過直覺和無限止的詩一般的幻想來進(jìn)行的。 ? B. 它不關(guān)心其本能的目標(biāo)最終是否真確。 ?C. 它使人類很失望。
5. ? ? ?D. ?無效。第二段開始就點出:我們得承認(rèn)宗教追求理性生活一直是很失?。鳟a(chǎn)了)。
A. 有想象力的。 ? ?B. 為未來提供希望的。 ? C. 是一個高度的智力活動。
閱讀理解。閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的四個選項(A、B、C和D)中,選出最佳選項。
MUMBAI, India —The children in their party clothes on the stage were very excited when they received the award. And the two of them said, "It’s unbelievable!"
Nine-year-old Rubina Ali, and Azharuddin Ismail, 10, were living a very different life and apparently loving every minute of it. The two, some of the child stars of the Oscar-winning Slumdog Millionaire (《貧民窟的百萬富翁》)movie, know the Indian slums very well. That was where they grew up, and it is where they will return at the end of their Hollywood dream trip.
But before going back home, there was an interview with the host, Ryan Seacrest. During the interview they smiled and repeated their disbelief at what was happening to them. To their surprise, their movie won the first place in the Oscars. When the two received the award, it was late morning in the children’s home city of Mumbai, where their family, friends and many fellow residents of the slums watched the results from Hollywood.
"I don’t really know what the Oscars are," Rubina’s mother said. "I’m just glad my daughter looks happy, though she told me she missed Indian food."
"Our children lead a dog’s life," Rubina’s mother said, pointing at the rubbish everywhere, the open drains (下水道) and the lack of education opportunities.
In a few days they will be back in Mumbai and back in the slums. Fortunately, according to media reports, the movie’s director, Danny Boyle, has promised to help the children he chose from the slums go to a proper school.
The two don’t need to worry about their daily lives because of the Oscar success of Slumdog Millionaire. But the poverty and lack of education opportunities —the central theme of the movie —is always all around.
1. Which of the following is true about the two children?
A. They played a major role in getting India children to receive education.
B. They were both excited about receiving the award.
C. They were interviewed after they went back home.
D. They were the only two child winners of the movie.
2. When the children attended the Oscar ceremony in Hollywood, their family and friends were _________.
A. watching TV in Mumbai B. doing what they did as usual
C. seeing the movie Slumdog Millionaire D. having a family party
3. What will happen to the two children after they return to India?
A. They will stay at home as before. B. They will still worry about their daily lives.
C. They will leave school to learn acting. D. They will have a better education.
4、 The movie is successful mainly because________.
A. it attracts the public attention to an existing social problem
B. it has made the two children famous
C. the two children will go to a better school
D. the two children stars in the movie are from India slums
