paused before climbing through the wire fence that divided the wheatfield from the marshy pasture(牧场) around the lake. they were screened from the ducks by the trees along the lakes edge.“if you hit your duck, you want me to go in after it ?” eugie said. “if you want.” arnold said.eugie lowered his eyelids, “youd drown before you got it, the legs of yours are so weak.” he said contemptuously(轻蔑地)。he shoveled the tub under the fence and, pressing down the centre wire, climbed through into the pasture.arnold pressed down the bottom wire, thrust a leg through and leaned forward to bring the other leg after. his rifle caught on the wire and he pulled at it. the air was rocked by the sound of the shot. feeling foolish, he lifted his face, baring it to an expected shower of dersision(嘲弄)from his brother. but eugie did not turn around.instead, from his crouching position, he fell into his knees and then pitched forward onto his face. the ducks rose up crying from the lake, cleared the mountain background and beat away northward across the pale sky.amold squatted beside his brother. eugie seemed to be climbing the earth, as if the earth ran up and down, and when he found he couldnt scale it he lay still.“eugie?”then arnold saw it, under the rolling hair at the back of the neck - a solw rising of bright blood. it han an unpleasant movement, like that of a parasite(寄生虫)。“hey, eugie,” he said again. he was feeling the same discomfort he had felt when he had watched eugie sleeping; his brother didnt known that he was lying face down in the pasture. again he said, “hey, eugie,” an anxious push in his voice. but eugie was as still as the morning about them.1. what does the underlined word “screened” in para 1 probably mean? a. separated b. stopped c. dragged d. hidden 答案解析：答案为d。本题为词义推断题。结合前四段可知，eugie 和arnold想去偷鸭子，可以推断，为了不被人发现，他们躲在隐蔽的地方，d选项“隐藏”最符合文意。 a选项意为 “分离”，b选项意为 “阻止”，c选项意为“拖、拉”，均不符合文意。2. from para 2 to para 4,we know that . a. eugie always laughed at arnold. b. eugie would help arnold hit the ducks. c. arnold begged eugie to go in after the ducks. d. eugie was worried that arnold might drown答案解析：答案为a。本题为推理题。从eugie的动作和语言 “eugie lowered his eyelids, youd drown before you got it, the legs of yours are so weak.he said contemptuously.” 可知，eugie认为arnold无法偷到鸭子，他可能会淹死，因为他的腿有问题。eugie的语气轻蔑高傲，故可推断，eugie总是嘲笑arnold。故答案为a。3. why did eugie lie still? a. arnold shot him intentionally. b. arnold killed him accidengtally. c. he pretended to be unconscious. d. he was ready to shoot some ducks. 答案解析：答案为b。本题为细节推理题。结合第六段 “.his rifle caught on the wire and he pulled at it. the air was rocked by the sound of the shot. feeling foolish, he lifted his face.” 可知，arnold的枪缠到了电线上，在他准备去拉枪的时候，空气被枪击的声音震动了，他觉得他真是笨； 又及第七段 “.eugie seemed to be climbing the earth, as if the earth ran up and down, and when he found he couldnt scale it he lay still.”可推知，eugie的动作是中弹后的动作，他感到大地在摇晃，原来是arnold 无意中开枪击中了eugie，他已经死去，静静地躺着。故答案为b。4. it can be inferred from the passage that . a. the relationship between arnold and eugie was not so good. b. arnold followed eugie approaching the lake to steal ducks. c. they were crouching forward to steal the wheat. d. eugie was always taking care of arnold. 答案解析：答案为a。本题为推理题。结合第四段 “eugie lowered his eyelids, youd drown before you got it, the legs of yours are so weak. he said contemptuously” 和后文的第六段 “feeling foolish, he lifted his face, baring it to an expected shower of dersision from his brother.” 可知，eugie 总是嘲笑 arnold. 他们的关系应该不好。故a选项正确。由第一段第一句话 “arnold followed eugie down the slope.”可知，b选项是文章提到的细节，无需推理。由第二段eugie说. “if you hit your duck, you want me to go in after it ?” 可推断，他们去偷鸭子，不是麦子。由前面的分析知，eugie 总是嘲笑 arnold，不会照顾arnold。综合上述分析，b、c、d均不选。阅读理解-b- (2011山东卷，b)tim richter and his wife, linda, had taught for over 30

placed the brochure on his desk, “as a reminder.”five years later, now retired and with that brochure still on the desk, tim clicked on imagination . the program had been opened up to partners who could take advantage of book and postage discounts.the quality of the books was of great concern to the richters. rather than sign up online, they went to dollywood for a looksee. “we didnt want to give the children rubbish，” says linda. the booksreviewed each year by teachers, literacy specialists, and dollywood board membersincluded classics such as ezra jack keatss the snowy day and newer books like anna dewdneys llama llama series. satisfied, the couple set up the richter family foundation and got to work. since 2004, they have shipped more than 12,200 books to preschoolers in their area. megan williams, a mother of four, is more than appreciative: “this program introduces us to books ive never heard of .”the richters spend about $400 a month sending books to 200 children. “some people sit there and wait to die，” says tim. “others get as busy as they can in the time they have left.”本文讲述了tim心脏手术后，对人生的目标有严肃认真的思考，术后，参加
