2．阅读理解
In order to tell you what I believe, I must bring up something from my personal history. The turning point of my life was my decision to give up my business job and study music. My parents, although sharing my love of music, didn't think it was a good choice that I took up music as a job. Considering my family background, this was understandable. My grandfather had taught music for nearly forty years at Spring Hill College in Mobile, and though he was much loved by his students, he didn't earn（挣钱） enough to provide for his large family. As a result of this example in the family, my parents strongly asked me to go to the college instead of a conservatory（音乐学院） of music although I loved my violin and spent most of my spare time practicing.
Before my graduation from Columbia, the family ran into some money problems and I felt it was my duty to leave college and take a job. That was why I took a business job, which I always think of as the wasted years. I went into it for money, for being able to help the family. Money is all I go out of it. It was not enough. I felt that life was passing me by.
My wish was to save enough to quit（退出）and then go to Europe to study music. I continued to make money, and finally, bit by bit, I earned enough to make myself able to go abroad. The family got out of the trouble and ▲ . I felt like a free man and sailed for Europe. I stayed for four years, worked harder than I had ever dreamed of working and enjoyed every minute of it.
\was against the advice of all my friends and family, but if I had stayed in business, I do not believe I would have made a success of living.
（1）The writer presented his grandpa's example in order to . A. show how much his grandpa was loved by his students B. tell to be a musician wasn't a good choice for the writer C. explain why his parents disagreed him to take up music as a job D. thank his parents' support for studying in the conservatory of music （2）How did the writer feel when he was taking his business job?
A. Successful. B. Shameful. C. Hopeful. D. Painful. （3）Which of the following can best fill in the blank in Paragraph 4? A. my point was that business was not for me. B. my help was no longer necessary. C. I earned so much to support my family. D. I got up early to practice the violin.
（4）From the underlined sentence \ A. couldn't find his place in a new environment B. couldn't make a success of living
C. felt free because he was doing what he loved D. felt pity for beginning a new life 【答案】 （1）C （2）D （3）B （4）C
【解析】【分析】文章大意：文章通过爷爷的故事告诉我们为啥他的父母反对他从事音乐工作，到后来真正的做了自己喜欢做的事。
（1）推理判断题 My grandfather had taught music for nearly forty years at Spring Hill College in Mobile, and though he was much loved by his students, he didn't earn（挣钱） enough to provide for his large family. 可知，作者引用他爷爷的例子是来告诉我们从事音乐工作挣不到钱，不能够养家，从而说明他的父母不同意他从事音乐事业。故答案是C。
（2）推理判断题，根据 That was why I took a business job, which I always think of as the wasted years. 作者经商的目的是为了帮助家人，但是对于他而言，他认为是浪费时间，因此可以推测他是痛苦的。故答案是D。 （3
）信息匹配题，根据 The family got out of the trouble 可知，他的家人已经走出了困境。一
开始我们就知道作者经商的目的是为了帮助家人，既然家人已经走出了困境，那么他的帮助也不再必要了。故答案是B。
（4）推理判断题，根据 I felt like a free man and sailed for Europe. I stayed for four years, worked harder than I had ever dreamed of working and enjoyed every minute of it. 可知，作者向往自由，而I walked on air直译为在空中行走，没有牵挂，没有认可阻拦，因此这一句话的目的是他已经感受到了自由，这样就可以做自己喜欢做的事。故答案是C。
【点评】考查阅读理解，本题主要涉及到了推理判断题，推理判断题相对来说是一种比较难以掌握的题型，除了要充分理解，还必须要进行合理的推理论证在能够得到正确答案，而信息匹配题则需要先理解选项的意思，然后根据空缺处前后句的逻辑关系去取舍，最终确定答案。
3．阅读下列短文，从下面每小题的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
B
It was July 17th of 2017. The little helpless girl, who had trouble walking, was going out into the wide world. In June 2016, I got the idea that I was going to America as an exchange student. With tears in my eyes, I said goodbye to my family.
After I finally arrived at the airport in Burlington, Vermont. I was welcomed by my host family. They didn't know much about my disability. “I hobble a little, but I don't see it as a problem.” I think it's the will that decides what you can and cannot do, and the disability doesn't matter! Before I went to the US, I knew I was going to miss home. But I went! Why? I've been a fighter ever since I decided not to give up my breath when I was born! My mother wrote my host mom an e-mail and told her about my hard birth so they would understand. I remember clearly after she finished reading it, she came into the room, gave me a big hug and said, “You are a fighter.” My host family supported me so much during the year. In school, small notes were sent out to all my teachers, by e-mail, to tell them about my disability. Everything worked greatly.
By the end of my year, exchange students were asked to talk about our years. I spoke in front of about 100 people! I was extremely proud of my “speech”. The following day some teachers stopped me and said, “Your speech was the best one.”
My year in Vermont was the best thing I've done so far! I proved I AM A FIGHTER and that
