题目

When I was 9, we packed up our home in Los Angeles and arrived at Heathrow, London on a gray January morning. Everyone in the family settled quickly into the city except me. Without my beloved beaches and endless blue—sky days, I felt at a loss and out of place. Until I made a discovery. Southbank, at an eastern bend in the Thames, is the center of British skateboarding, where the continuous crashing of skateboards left your head ringing .I loved it. I soon made friends with the local skaters. We spoke our own language. And my favorite: Safe. Safe meant cool. It meant hello. It meant don't worry about it. Once, when trying a certain trick on the beam （横杆） , I fell onto the stones, damaging a nerve in my hand, and Toby came over, helping me up: Safe, man. Safe. A few minutes later, when I landed the trick, my friends beat their boards loud, shouting: “ Safe! Safe! Saf e!” And that's what mattered—landing tricks, being a good skater. When I was 15, my family moved to Washington. I tried skateboarding there, but the locals were far less welcoming. Within a couple of years, I'd given it up. When I returned to London in 2004, I found myself wandering down to Southbank, spending hours there. I've traveled back several times since, most recently this past spring. The day was cold but clear: tourists and Londoners stopped to watch the skaters. Weaving （穿梭） among the kids who rushed by on their boards, I found my way to the beam. Then a rail—thin teenager, in a baggy white T—shirt, skidded （滑） up to the beam. He sat next to me. He seemed not to notice the man next to him. But soon I caught a few of his glances. “I was a local here 20 years ago,” I told him. Then, slowly, he began to nod his head. “Safe, man. Safe.” “Yeah,” I said. “Safe.” 1 ． What can we learn about the author soon after he moved to London? A ． He felt disappointed. B ． He gave up his hobby. C ． He liked the weather there. D ． He had disagreements with his family. 2 ． What do the underlined words “Safe! Safe! Safe!” probably mean? A ． Be careful! B ． Well done! C ． No way! D ． Don't worry! 3 ． Why did the author like to spend time in Southbank when he returned to London? A ． To join the skateboarding. B ． To make new friends. C ． To learn more tricks. D ． To relive his childhood days 4 ． What message does the author seem to convey in the text? A ． Children should learn a second language. B ． Sport is necessary for children's health. C ． Children need a sense of belonging D ． Seeing the world is a must for children. 答案： 1 ． A 2 ． B 3 ． D 4 ． C 【分析】 本文属于记叙文。本文讲述作者自己的经历，起初搬到伦敦很不适应，但是由于找到了玩滑板的地方，结识了玩滑板的朋友，因此很好的适应了。作者回到伦敦之后，经常去之前玩滑板的地方寻找自己的回忆，在与一个玩滑板的孩子打招呼的时候，终于找到了自己久违的熟悉感。 1. 推理判断题。根据第一段 “Everyone in the family settled quickly into the city except me. Without my beloved beaches and endless blue -sky days, I felt at a loss and out of place.( 除了我之外的家里人都很快适应这个城市，没有了我喜爱的沙滩和蓝天，我感到迷茫和无措 )” 可知，作者刚到伦敦的时候因为没有喜爱的沙滩，不能很好的融入到新的城市，感到很沮丧，故选 A 。 2. 词义猜测题。根据画线词后文 “And that's what mattered—landing tricks, being a good skater. ( 那才是真正重要的 —— 滑板的落地技巧掌握了才是一名好的滑板玩家 )” 可知，作者掌握了滑板落地技巧，因此他的朋友大声欢呼，因此可以推出本句的 Safe 是赞美的含义，结合选项，故选 B 。 3. 推理判断题。根据第四段 ““I was a local here 20 years ago," I told him. Then, slowly, he began to nod his head. “Safe, man. Safe.””( 我告诉他： “ 我 20 年前经常在这里玩滑板， ” 他缓慢地开始向我点头： “ 嗨，你好！ ”)” 可推知，作者去 Southbank 这个地方是为了寻找自己玩滑板的回忆，故选 D 。 4. 推理判断题。根据全文可知，作者起初搬到伦敦很不适应，但是由于找到了玩滑板的地方，结识了玩滑板的朋友，因此很好的适应了。但是搬去华盛顿，因为没有遇到很好的玩滑板的朋友，几年之后就不再玩滑板，作者回到伦敦之后，经常去之前玩滑板的地方寻找自己的回忆，在于一个孩子打招呼的时候，终于找到了自己久违的回忆。通过作者的经历，作者要表达的是，归属感对于孩子是很重要的，故选 C 。
