2014届高考英语一轮备考习题精练9cone day, when i was working as a psychologist in england，an adolescent boy showed up in my office. it was david. he kept walking up and down restlessly, his face pale, and his hands shaking slightly. his head teacher had referred him to me. “this boy has lost his family，” he wrote. “he is understandably very sad and refuses to talk to others, and im very worried about him. can you help？” i looked at david and showed him to a chair. how could i help him? there are problems psychology doesnt have the answer to, and which no words can describe. sometimes the best thing one can do is to listen openly and sympathetically. the first two times we met, david didnt say a word. he sat there, only looking up to look at the childrens drawings on the wall behind me. i suggested we play a game of chess. he nodded. after that he played chess with me every wednesday afternoonin complete silence and without looking at me. its not easy to cheat in chess, but i admit i made sure david won once or twice. usually, he arrived earlier than agreed, took the chess board and pieces from the shelf and began setting them up before i even got a chance to sit down. it seemed as if he enjoyed my company. but why did he never look at me? “perhaps he simply needs someone to share his pain with，” i thought. “perhaps he senses that i respect his suffering.”some months later, when we were playing chess, he looked up at me suddenly. “its your turn，” he said. after that day, david started talking. he got friends in school and joined a bicycle club. he wrote to me a few times, about his biking with some friends, and about his plan to get into university. now he had really started to live his own life. maybe i gave david something. but i also learned that onewithout any wordscan reach out to another person. all it takes is a hug, a shoulder to cry on, a friendly touch, and an ear that listens.36when he first met the author, david _ a. felt a little excitedb. walked

possible helper in the room. her internet access was lockedremotelyto prevent internet searches, and her typing style was analyzed to make sure she was who she said she was: did she enter her student

millions of dollars to attract potential students，while also taking steps to help guarantee honesty at a distance.aside from the web cameras, a number of other hightech methods are becoming increasingly popular. among them are programs that check students identities using personal information，such as the telephone numbers they once used. other programs can produce unique exams by drawing on a large list of questions and can recognize possible cheaters by analyzing whether difficult test questions are answered at the same speed as easy ones. as in many university classes，term papers

additional praise：the man who popularized the clever literary attack on racism.i say clever because antislavery fiction had been the important part of the literature in the years before the civil war.h.b.stowes uncle toms cabin is only the most famous example.these early stories dealt directly with slavery.with minor exceptions, twain planted his attacks on slavery and prejudice into tales that were on the surface about something else entirely.he drew his readers into the argument by drawing them into the story.again and again，in the postwar years，twain seemed forced to deal with the challenge of race.consider the most controversial, at least today, of twains novels, adventures of huckleberry finn.only a few books have been kicked off the shelves as often as huckleberry finn，twains most widely read tale.once upon a time, people hated the book because it struck them as rude. twain himself wrote that those who banned the book considered the novel “trash and suitable only for the slums(贫民窟)”more recently the book has been attacked because of the character jim，the escaped slave，and many occurences of the word nigger.(the term nigger jim，for which the novel is often severely criticized，never appears in it.)but the attacks were and are sillyand miss the point.the novel is strongly antislavery.jims search through the slave states for the family from whom he has been forcibly parted is heroic.as jchadwick has pointed out, the character of jim was a first in american fictiona recognition that the slave had two personalities, “the voice of survival within a white slave culture and the voice of the individual：jim, the father and the man.”there is much more.twains mystery novel puddnhead wilson stood as a challenge to the racial beliefs of even many of the liberals of his day.written at a time when the accepted wisdom held negroes to be inferior(低等的)to whites，especially in intelligence，twains tale centered in part around two babies switched at birth.a slave gave birth to her masters baby and，for fear that the child should be sold south, switched him for the masters baby by his wife.the slaves lightskinned child was taken to be white and grew up with both the attitudes and the education of the slaveholding class.the masters wifes baby was taken for black and grew up with the attitudes and intonations of the slave.the point was difficult to miss：nurture(养育)，not nature，was the key to social status.the features of the black man that provided the stuff of prejudicemanner of speech，for examplewere, to twain, indicative of nothing other than the conditioning that slavery forced on its victims.twains racial tone was not perfect.one is left uneasy，for example，by the lengthy passage in his autobiography(自传)about how much he loved what were called “nigger shows” in his youthmostly with white men performing in blackfaceand his delight in getting his mother to laugh at them.yet there is no reason to think twain saw the shows as representing reality.his frequent attacks on slavery and prejudice suggest his keen awareness that they did not.was twain a racist？asking the question in the 21st century is as wise as asking the same of lincoln.if we read the words and attitudes of the past through the “wisdom” of the considered moral judgments of the present，we will find nothing but error.lincoln，who believed the black man the inferior of the white, fought and won a war to free him.and twain, raised in a slave state, briefly a soldier，and inventor of jim，may have done more to anger the nation over racial injustice and awaken its collective conscience than any other novelist in the past century.65how do twains novels on slavery differ from stowes?atwain was more willing to deal with racism.btwains attack on racism was much less open.ctwains themes seemed to agree with plots.dtwain was openly concerned with racism.66recent criticism of adventures of huckleberry finn arose partly from its _atarget readers at the bottombantislavery attitudecrather impolite languagedfrequent use of “nigger”67what best proves twains antislavery stand according to the author?ajims search for his family was described in detail.bthe slaves voice was first heard in american novels.cjim grew up into a man and a father in the white culture.dtwain suspected that the slaves were less intelligent.68the story of two babies switched mainly indicates that _aslaves were forced to give up their babies to their mastersbslaves babies could pick up slaveholders way of speakingcblacks social position was shaped by how they were brought updblacks were born with certain features of prejudice69what does the underlined word “they” in paragraph 7 refer to?athe attacks.bslavery and prejudice.cwhite men.dthe shows.70what does the author mainly argue for?atwain had done more than his c
