module6 the tang poems.阅读理解(共两节)第一节阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(a、b、c、d)中，选出最佳选项。my interest in nature began at a very young age，when i would capture any insect unlucky in our apartment and study them for hours.when i was eight，my family moved to our current address，and there was a large plot of unused land just across the road.it was my first experience with wilderness.the grass was long and untamed，and my imagination filled it with all sorts of wonderful creatures from snakes to wild deer. now，the former grassland is filled with half a dozen buildings，and more are under construction.i am not going to be particular about the loss of nature，because it is almost certainly unavoidable.i am grateful，however，for the happiness brought to me by that grassland in childhood，when i ran around looking for fourleaf clovers and filling my pockets with pink flowers.i am a born and bred city girl，but that grassy playground brought me to a different world. and now，if i could take my steps into adulthood，i would realize that i dont want to spend the rest of my life in an office.my childhood dream of living in a house with a backyard where i can grow my own plants has slowly turned into an ambition for being a farmer.i understand that being a farmer is not just about playing in the fields and sleeping under the stars.it is hard work.however，most jobs are hard work. in china，where i was born，few people want to be farmers.those living in rural areas try their best to leave their farms behind，entering the cities in search of lowwage jobs as factory workers.in todays world，where food consumption far exceeds food shortage，i believe that it is time for a new breed of farmers who understand science and technology as well as they understand crops and animals.1what can we conclude from the passage?athe authors interest dates back to her childhood.bthe author was born from a farmers family.cthe author was determined to take up farming.dthe author got troubled with the city life.解析：选a。推理判断题。作者在文中追述了自己对大自然的喜爱起源于童年。在童年时期，那些花草虫给作者留下了深刻的印象，由此可知a项正确。2what does the underlined word “untamed” in the passage mean?athickbwildcplanted dcrushed解析：选b。词义猜测题。根据该词所在句子的前一句可知，当作者和家人搬到这个地方时，她看到的是一片荒野，因此当时那里的草不是人工种植的，而是野生的，故b项正确。3the second paragraph implies that_.athe local destroyed nature on purposebthe author once disliked nature at allcthere is too little space for too many peopledconstruction means better economy development解析：选c。推理判断题。根据第二段的前两句可知，城市扩建不得不占据了以前的土地，用于建设楼房给人类使用，由此可知与从前相比，人口在增加，耕地面积在减少，故c项正确。4before the author wants to be a farmer_.ashe has spent some time living with farmersbshe has taken a job in the officecshe has missed her backyard with plantsdshe has got tired of work in city解析：选b。细节理解题。根据文章第三段的“if i could take my steps into adulthood，i would realize that i dont want to spend the rest of my life in an office”可知，作者现在在办公室上班，故b项符合文意。第二节根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。tips for cooking on a tight schedulefrom my experience，there are three main reasons why people dont cook more often ：ability，money，and time 1._ money is a topic ill save for another day .so today i want to give you some wisdom about how to make the most of the time you spend in the kitchen .here are three tips for great cooking on a tight schedule：think ahead .the moments when i think cooking is a pain are when im already hungry and theres nothing ready to eat .so think ahead of the coming week .when will you have time to cook ？do you have the right materials already?
