题文
阅读理解。 The sun shone in through the dining room window, lighting up the hardwood floor. We had been talkingthere for nearly two hours. The phone of the "Nightline" rang yet again and Morrie asked his helper, Connie,
to get it. She had been taking down the callers' names in Morrie's small black appointment book. It was clear
I was not the only one interested in visiting my old professor-the "Nightline" appearance had made him
something of a big figure-but I was impressed with, perhaps even a bit envious of, all the friends that Morrie
seemed to have.
"You know, Mitch, now that I'm dying, I've become much more interesting to people. I'm on the last great
journey here-and people want me to tell them what to pack."
The phone rang again. "Morrie, can you talk?" Connie asked.
"I'm visiting with my old friend now," he announced, "Let them call back."
I cannot tell you why he received me so warmly. I was hardly the promising student who had left him
sixteen years earlier. Had it not been for "Nightline", Morrie might have died without ever seeing me again.
What happened to me? The eighties happened. The nineties happened. Death and sickness and getting fat
and going bald happened. I traded lots of dreams for a bigger paycheck, and I never even realized I was doing
it. Yet here was Morrie talking with the wonder of our college years, as if I'd simply been on a long vacation.
"Have you found someone to share your heart with?" he asked. "Are you at peace with yourself?" "Are you
trying to be as human as you can be?"
I felt ashamed, wanting to show I had been trying hard to work out such questions. What happened to me?
I once promised myself I would never work for money, that I would join the Peace Corps, and that I would
live in beautiful, inspirational places.
Instead, I had been in Detroit for ten years, at the same workplace, using the same bank, visiting the same
barber. I was thirty-seven, more mature than in college, tied to computers and modems and cell phones. I was
no longer young, nor did I walk around in gray sweatshirts with unlit cigarettes in my mouth. I did not have
long discussions over egg salad sandwiches about the meaning of life.
My days were full, yet I remained, much of the time, unsatisfied. What happened to me? 1. When did the author graduate from Morrie's college? [ ]A. In the eighties.
B. In the nineties.
C. When he was 16.

C. The author helped Morrie start it.
D. It was only operated at night. 3. What can we infer from the passage? [ ]A. Both the author and Morrie liked travelling.
B. Morrie liked helping people pack things for their journeys.
C. The author envied Morrie's friends the help they got from him.
D. The author earned a lot of money at the cost of his dreams. 4. What's the author's feeling when he writes this passage? [ ]A. Regretful.

考点
据考高分专家说,试题“阅读理解。 The .....”主要考查你对 [故事类阅读 ]考点的理解。故事类阅读
故事类阅读概念:
这类文章一般描述的是某一件具体事情的发生发展或结局,有人物、时间、地点和事件。命题往往从故事的情节、人物或事件的之间的关系、作者的态度及意图、故事前因和后果的推测等方面着手,考查学生对细节的辨认能力以及推理判断能力。
故事类阅读应试技巧:
1、抓住文章的6个要素:
阅读时要学会从事情本身的发展去理解故事情节而不要只看事件在文中出现的先后顺序。因此,无论是顺叙还是倒叙,阅读此类文章时,必须要找到它结构中的5个W(when, where, who, why, what)和1个H(how),不过不是每篇都会完整地交待六个要素。毫无疑问,寻出这些元素是能够正确快速解题的一个先决条件。
2、注意作者的议论和抒情:
高考英语阅读理解故事类文章常伴随着作者思想情感的流露和表达,因此议论和抒情往往夹杂其中。行文时或按事情发生发展的先后时间进行或按事情发生发展的地点来转换,也可能按事情发展的阶段来布局。在引出话题,讲完一件事情后,作者往往会表达个人感悟或提出建议等。这些体现作者观点或思想的语句在阅读时可以划线,它们往往体现文章中心或者写作意图,属于必考点,所以要仔细体会。
3、结合前两点归纳文章中心,把握作者态度:
故事类文章是通过记叙一件事来表达中心思想的,它是文章的灵魂。归纳文章中心思想时,尤其要分析文章的结尾,因为很多文章卒章显志,用简短的议论、抒情揭示文章中心;文章中议论抒情的句子往往与中心密切相关;也有的文章需要在结合概括各段大意的基础上归纳中心。另外,叙述一件事必有其目的,或阐明某一观点,或赞美某种品德,或抨击某种陋习,这就要求我们在阅读时,通过对细节(第1点中的六要素)的理解,把握作者的态度。
4、有章有据进行解题判断:
分析文章,归纳主题,属于分析、概括、综合的表述能力的考查。切忌脱离文章,架空分析,一定让分析在文章中有依据。
