語篇解讀：作者是一個意大利裔美國人，母親特意用意大利語教會作者做意大利飯團(tuán)，繼承了作者家

里的小吃食品傳統(tǒng)，讓作者充分理解自我，為自己所做的事而自豪。

28.Whatmakestheauthor'shomefeellikeinItaly?

A.Fruitandsnacks.B.Neighborsandfriends.

C.Namesandholidays.D.Foodandlanguage.

解析：選D細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段前三句"Tothisday,mymother...areaboutfood.”可知，母親用意

大利母語與我談?wù)撘獯罄澄锏氖虑?，故D選項正確。

29.Whyistheauthorsuretolearnandperfectarancinidiriso?

A.Itsavesvaluablefoodfromgoingtowaste.

B.Itremindstheauthorofherdaysatschool.

C.Itplaysamajorroleincontinuingfamilytradition.

D.Itshowcasesthecookingskillsoftheauthor'smother.

解析：選C推理判斷題。根據(jù)第三段第一句uOneofmyfamily'sdishesofheritageIamsuretolearnand

perfectismymother'sarancinidiriso(Italianriceballs).”*口最后一句"Formyfamily,italsoshowcasedmy

mother'sabilitytoalwaysfindadeliciouswaytoneverletanythinggotowaste...ordinnerappetizer.“可以再I斷，

作者決定把家里的意大利傳統(tǒng)食品繼承下來，因為它在家庭傳統(tǒng)中起著重要作用，它不僅贊揚了母親從來

不浪費的傳統(tǒng)美德，也體現(xiàn)了母親把剩米飯改做成可口的小吃的能力。

30.Whatdoestheunderlinedword"goodness"inParagraph4referto?

A.Arancinidiriso.B.Mother'skindness.

C.TheItalianlanguage.D.Amazingcookingskills.

解析：選A詞義猜測題。根據(jù)第四段第二句中的叮hissmallsnacksymbolizessomanyimportant

elements”可知,goodness是指Thissmallsnack,即“arancinidiriso(Italianriceballs)”,故A選項正確。

31.Whatisthetextmainlyabout?

A.Whylearningtocookisimportantforamother.

B.Howthefamilyheritageistaughtthroughfood.

C.Howchildhoodexperienceschangeone'slife.

D.Whymothersareimportantinchildren'seducation.

解析：選B主旨大意題。文章主要介紹了作者身在異鄉(xiāng)，母親讓她用剩米飯學(xué)做意大利家庭傳統(tǒng)小吃，

以繼承母親節(jié)約糧食的美德，從而讓作者認(rèn)識自我。

語篇解讀：本文是議論文。如今是注意力經(jīng)濟(jì)時代，那些從事創(chuàng)造性工作的自由職業(yè)者面臨著更加激

烈的競爭和挑戰(zhàn)。

32.Inwhatwaywasthesituation50yearsagosimilartothementionedone?

A.Peopleneededtocompeteforattention.

B.Fewpeoplecaredaboutcreativeworks.

C.Manypeopleengagedincreativework.

D.Peoplehaddifficultyinspreadingtheirworks.

解析：選A推理判斷題。第二段指出，當(dāng)今時代從事創(chuàng)造性工作者必須努力去爭取人們的注意；第

三段接著指出，其實50年前也是這樣：作品數(shù)量總是超過人們的需要。也就是說，他們需要爭奪人們的注

意力。

33.Whydoestheauthorchoosebinsteadofa?

A.Heisafraidoffiercecompetition.

B?Hewantstohavemorecompetitors.

C.Heisbadlyinneedofmoreattention.

D.Hevaluestheopportunitytocompete.

解析：選D細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段可知，作者之所以選擇b是因為他更珍惜當(dāng)今時代網(wǎng)絡(luò)所提供

的自由競爭的機(jī)會。

34.Whatdoestheunderlinedword“fallacy”inParagraph5mean?

A.Anewopinion.B.Awrongbelief.

C.Avaluableidea.D.Astrangeconcept.

解析：選B詞義猜測題。下句指出：事實上，你只需要有足夠的粉絲和注意力就可以維持生活。也就

是說，你不需要成為那頂尖的1%或5%。由此可知，作者認(rèn)為前面的說法是錯誤的。

35.Whafstheauthor9sattitudetoacreativelife?

A.Critical.B.Doubtful.

C.Supportive.D.Ambiguous.

解析：選C觀點態(tài)度題。根據(jù)最后一段可知，作者認(rèn)為，雖然從事創(chuàng)造性工作有很大的風(fēng)險，但是作

者還是建議人們?nèi)氖逻@一行業(yè)。

語篇解讀：本文是說明文。感恩之心即滿足之心，滿足之心即簡單之心；感恩打開了通往簡單生活的

大門，但是我們生活在產(chǎn)生不滿的文化中。我們?nèi)绾握一馗卸髦哪?？本文主要介紹了四個找回感恩之心

的方法。

36.選G根據(jù)空前一句并結(jié)合下文介紹的四個找回感恩之心的方法可知，空處承上啟下，故G項符

合語境。

37.選D根據(jù)空前一句可知，感恩從不是你下次的成功或成就的結(jié)果，感恩是現(xiàn)在在你內(nèi)心可找到

的，所以選D項。

38.選E空前列舉的都是美好的事，E項中的“wonderfulthingsinyourlife”與此呼應(yīng)，故選E項。

39.選C根據(jù)空處所在位置可知，空處為該段的主題句。本段主要講述的是世界上有很多悲苦大眾，

我們應(yīng)該看到他們，所以選C項。

40.選F根據(jù)空后一句中的“Butitcanbemoredifficultduringthetrialsoflife”可知，空處與空后一句形

成對比，應(yīng)是說明萬事順利時感恩是很容易做到的，所以選F項。
