山东德州2013届高考英语二轮复习阅读理解精练精析21having a great teacher can be life-changing. mr. goodney, my 9th grade advanced english teacher, pushed me in ways i hadnt been pushed in the classroom previously. he didnt grade me compared to my classmates；he graded us on a personal grading scale. mr. goodney encouraged me but i just couldnt seem to please mr. goodney, no matter how hard i worked. i continued to see the dreaded bs, sometimes even a c, so frequently that i said goodbye to my hopes of being a middle student. i was a really diligent nerd(令人厌烦的人). yet at the end of the semester when report cards came out, i had an “a” next to my english class, and i realized that the letter he had written on my report card was just a way to make me work harder than i ever had. he made me push myself to think deeper, write better, and analyze more thoroughly. he didnt hate me as i initially thought, and i looked back embarrassed about all those times when i showed frustration and dissatisfaction with a returned grade. he would write a positive comment on one of my papers that would invigorate me to work even harder even if i made a little bit progress. these sporadic (零星的) good words would motivate me to do whatever it took to earn those praising comments on my next paper and push me to try and top my last assignment. after we all improved he expected perfection and those high standards made all of us better writers, creators, good students, and useful people. mr. goodney inspired me to become an english teacher although i felt like i fell below his standards in a classroom. now i have become a high school teacher. thinking of him from time to time makes me try to come up with fresh and creative teaching ways just as he did. from my experience i believe a good teacher is very important. mr. goodney inspires me to this day, and i wish i could travel back to the 9th grade for just one day in the old classroom, so i can fully thank him, which i didnt do at that time. 1. according to the passage, mr. goodney graded the author _ . a. in order to encourage himb. according to his real marks c. compared to his classmatesd. as most teachers usually do 2. what do we know about the author from the passage？a. he only did well in english and often got praises. b. he didnt study his lessons hard enough. c. he got good marks on one of his report cards. d. he had confidence in becoming a top student. 3. the underlined words “invigorate me” in paragraph 4 can be replaced by _ . a. take pity on meb. encourage mec. play tricks on med. offer me help 4. what does the author believe according to his own experience? a. he would have been more successful if he had worked harder. b. nothing is difficult for a student if he meets a good teacher. c. his english teacher had set too high standards for him. d. a good teacher had a lifelong influence on him. (b)we once had a poster competition in our fifth grade art class. “you could win prizes, ” our teacher told us as she wrote the poster information on the blackboard. she passed out sheets of construction paper while continuing, “the first prize is ten dollars. you just have to make sure that the words on the blackboard appear somewhere on your poster. ”we studied the board critically. some of us looked with one eye and held up certain colors against the blackboard, rocking the sheets to the right or left while we conjured up our designs. others twisted their hair around their fingers or chewed their erasers while deep in thought. we had plans for that ten-dollar grand prize, each and every one of us. im going to spend mine on candies, one hopeful would announce, while another practiced looking serious, wise and rich. everyone in the class made a poster. some of us used parts of those fancy paper napkins(餐巾纸), while others used nothing but colored construction paper. some of us used big designs, and some of us preferred to gather our art tidily down in one corner of our poster and let the space draw the viewers attention to it. some of us would wander past the good students desks and then return to our own projects with a growing sense of hopelessness. it was yet another grown-up trick of the sort they seemed especially fond of, making all of us believe we had a fair chance, and then alwaysalwaysrewarding the same old winners. i believe i drew a sailboat, but i cant say that with any certainty. i made it. i admired it. i determined it to be the very best of all of the posters i had seen, and then i turned it in. minutes passed. no one came along to give me the grand prize, and then someone distracted me, and i probably never would have thought about that poster again. i was still sitting at my desk, thinking, what poster? when the teacher gave me an envelope with a ten-dollar bill in it and everyone in the class applauded for me. 5. what was the teachers requirement for the poster? a. it must appear in time. b. it must be done in class. c. it must be done on a construction sheet. d. it must include the words on the blackboard. 6. the underlined phrase in paragraph 3 most probably means _ . a. formed an idea forb. made an outline forc. made some space ford. chose some colors for7. after seeing the good students designs, some students _ . a. loved their own designs moreb. thought they had a fair chancec. put their own designs in a cornerd. thought they would not win the prize8. we can infer from the passage that the author _ . a. enjoyed grown-up tricks very muchb. loved poster competitions very muchc. felt surprised to win the competitiond. became wise and rich after the competition答案解析【文章大意】一个好的老师可以改变一个人的命运。作者永远不会忘记自己在九年级时的英语老师。在他的鼓励和帮助下，作者终于成为了有用之才。1. 【解析】选a。细节理解题。从文章第一段中的. . . he graded us on a personal grading scale和第二段中的mr. goodney encouraged me. . . 可知，这位老师在教育孩子方面的不同, 他是按学生的个人情况给打分，借此来鼓励孩子。2. 【解析】选c。细节理解题。由文章第三段中的yet at the end of the semester when report cards came out, i had an “a” next to my english class. . . 可知，作者在他的其中一张成绩单上得到了好的成绩。3. 【解析】选b。词义猜测题。根据句中提到的a positive comment. . . 及下文的. . . work even harder. . . 可推断，invigorate意为“鼓励”，故正确选项为b。4. 【解析】选d。推理判断题。文章第一段第一句及第五段中的thinking of him from time. . . just as he d
