Ⅱ.阅读理解

A

Robert Frost (1874－1963) is one of America's most beloved poets. He was a contemporary of many modernist poetic movements，but he wasn't associated with any particular group of poets. He stuck to his own literary beliefs，and as a result，he attracted a good deal of criticism from the literary world. But，it is just because he was such a person and his voice was so original that Frost became so beloved. If you are to choose one of his poems and read it aloud on a busy street，we are sure that many people will recognize the poem immediately as Frost's.

Mending Wall，which is the first poem in North of Boston，Frost's second book of poetry，is one of his most popular poems. It is a poem about two neighbors who fix a rock wall that lies between their homes. “I” want to destroy the wall，and the “neighbor” wants to leave it standing.

We just can't get enough of walls，can we? People love boundaries. We love them when we're little，protecting our precious toys from our troublesome brothers and sisters. As we get older，we begin to throw around the gentle term “personal space”， as in “GET OUT OF MY ROOM！” In college，we really learn how the idea of “My house is your house” doesn't always result in happy roommate relationships. After we become adults with good jobs and a lot of cool things，we often put up fences，gates，walls，or doors to protect our stuff and keep the peace.

Walls help us protect ourselves，but their downside is that they often keep people from communicating with each other. Mending Wall makes us take a look at how we use our walls and boundaries，and why we use them the way we do. This poem sends a wake­up call to the universe. There are walls between our hearts.

B．His first poem is about life.

C．He often criticized other poets.

D．He joined many poetic movements.

A　[细节理解题。由第一段第三句及最后一句“If you are to...as Frost's.”可知，他坚持自己的写作风格，这说明他的写作风格特别，容易辨认。]

2．In Paragraph 3，what does the author want to show?

A．Sharing with others brings us happiness.

B．There seems to be lots of walls in our life.

C．Walls let people know about themselves.

D．Personal space is important to everyone.

3．The third paragraph is developed by ________．

A．space　　　　　　　 B．example

C．time D．comparison

C　[推理判断题。在第三段作者按照时间顺序展开全段，指出了人们从孩童时期到长大成人，不断地建立“心墙”。]

4．The underlined word “downside” in the last paragraph can be replaced by “________”.

A．true use B．old way

C．negative part D．major difference

C　[词义猜测题。根据最后一段but一词的转折可知，第四段讲墙可以保护人的同时，也阻止了人们的交流。因此downside在此处有“不足之处”的意思。]

It's hard to find Alice Munro in the media.Even after she won the 2013 Nobel Prize in Literature，the Canadian writer just appeared for a quick interview and then dropped out of sight.On Dec.29，she still didn't seek the spotlight(聚光灯)when she was named one of the five Women of the Year by the Financial Times.

In Munro's eyes，ordinary lives always hide larger dramas.So she records what we casually think of as the everyday actions of normal people.She often focuses on life in her hometown，a small village in Ontario which she is most familiar with.She writes about the ordinary things in the village—fox forming，trees filled in the Ontario wilderness，poor country alcohol and long last illnesses.Above all，she talks about girls and women who have seemingly ordinary lives but struggle against daily misfortune.She has a special talent for uncovering the extraordinary in the ordinary.These are ordinary people，ordinary stories，but she has the magic.Her precise language，depth of detail and the logic of her storytelling have made her stories inviting.

Runaway，one of Munro's representative works，is a good example of her writing style.One of the stories centers on the life of an ordinary woman Carla，who lives in a small Canadian town with her husband Clark.The story slowly forms a picture of Carla，trapped in a bad marriage，her unhappiness building into desperation until she decided to flee.The story of Carla is a story of the power and betrayals of love.It is about lost children and lots of chances that we can all find in life.There is pain beneath the surface，like a needle in the heart.

Since she published her first collection of short stories in 1968，Munro has won many awards，with the Nobel Prize being her biggest honor.On Oct.10，2013，the Nobel Prize Committee named Munro the“master of the contemporary short story”．

【语篇解读】　本文是一篇记叙文，主要介绍了诺贝尔文学奖获得者艾丽斯·芒罗的写作取材、写作风格和手法以及作品的主要内涵和特点。

A．didn't get on well with the media

B．remained modest though very successful

C．didn't value the title of Women of the Year

D．was surprised at winning the Nobel Prize

B　[推理判断题。由第一段可知，Alice Munro在得了诺贝尔文学奖后依然很少出现在聚光灯下，甚至在登上《金融时报》评选榜后也没有在媒体上露面。由此可以判断出B项正确，Alice Munro虽然很成功，但仍很谦虚。]

6．What makes Alice Munro's stories fascinating according to the text?

A．Her rich imagination.

B．The complicated plots.

C．Her writing techniques.

D．The humorous language.

7．What is the text mainly about?

A．Alice Munro's literary life.

B．The awards Alice Munro won.

C．Alice Munro and her hometown.
