His own way to express love

Yesterday was our three-year anniversary. We didn’t do anything romantic: we just walked hand in hand and talked about our past and future. This was pretty much what I had expected.

Andy is unromantic guy: no sweet words or roses. Smart as he is, he is a little bit shy expressing his love. In contrast, I am an outspoken girl who likes to show her feelings directly. So needless to say, I often feel that is insensitive. I envy other girls who are surrounded by sweet words.

I was in this sullen mood until I heard a beautiful sentence one day: “someone does not love you in the way you like, it does not mean that he does not love you.” This simple but sensible sentence made me think about our happy days and recall his deep concern for me.

One cold winter night, I got a high fever. He hurried to my dorm and took me to the hospital. He was in such a hurry that he even forgot to wear socks. After arrival, he ran through the hospital handling all the formalities. When I was put on a drip, he told me interesting stories to make me happy. Being held in his warm arms and listening to his tender voice, I never felt so safe and comfortable. Gradually, I felt asleep. When I woke up 15 minutes later, he was still mumbling to me. He explained that if he had stopped talking I would have woke up. At that moment, I found love in his sparkling eyes.

Another time, I had a bad quarrel with my best friend. Although I knew it was my fault, I refused to admit it. I was angry when he insisted I apologize to her. He said that it was difficult to admit a mistake, but this was what everyone should do. The next morning, I apologized to my friend and asked for her forgiveness.

答案与解析:

1. 文章主题分析:

His own(自己的, 拥有)way(方式, 道路) to express(表达) love(爱, 爱好, 热爱)
文章标题说 “他自己表达爱的方式” , 为了准确了解文章标题的内容, 需要知道与his呼应的 he是“谁”?借助标题中的核心词“way”和“love”, 推测这篇文章主题可能涉及社会生活。
关注文章开头段落,与his呼应的 he是“谁”?
Yesterday(昨天) was our three-year anniversary(周年纪念). We didn’t do anything romantic(浪漫的)(与标题中的love呼应): we just walked(步行) hand in hand(手牵手) and talked about(谈论) our past(过去) and future(未来). This was pretty much what (应改为pretty much as)I had expected.

Andy is an unromantic(不浪漫的) guy(家伙): no sweet(甜蜜的, 芬芳的) words(话语, 单词) or roses(玫瑰花). Smart(聪明的, 漂亮的) as(尽管) he is, he is a little bit (有点)shy(害羞的) expressing(表达) his love. In contrast(相反), I am an outspoken(坦率直言的) girl who likes to show(表达, 显示, 展出) her feelings(情感) directly(直接地). So needless to say, I often feel that is insensitive. I envy other girls who are surrounded by sweet words.

借助文章第1, 2段的语意推测文章标题中提到的“他”可能是文章作者的爱人,这篇文章可能涉及到他们两个人的爱情故事(涉及到作者的爱人独特的表达爱的方式)。

2. 直接解题:

1. Who is Andy?
A the writer’s father(父亲)
B the writer’s mother(母亲)
C the writer’s elder (年长的, 资格老的)brother(兄长)
D the writer’s boyfriend(男朋友)

D. 问题句问“谁是Andy?” , 根据前面在了解文章主题时所获取的信息可以直接判断D (作者的男朋友)是答案。

解题思路2: 利用题干中的特征词(Andy)作为答案线索, 这样在文章中找到答案相关句:
Yesterday was our three-year anniversary. We didn’t do anything romantic: we just walked hand in hand and talked about our past and future. This was pretty much what I had expected.

Andy is unromantic guy: no sweet words or roses. Smart(聪明的, 漂亮的) as he is, he is a little bit(有点) shy(害羞的)expressing his love. In contrast(相反), I am an outspoken(坦率直言的) girl who likes to show(表达) her feelings(情感) directly(直接地). So needless to say, I often feel that is insensitive. I envy other girls who are surrounded by sweet words.

第2段的第1句是答案相关句, 该句说“Andy不是一个浪漫的人: 他没有甜言蜜语, 也没有玫瑰花” , 但是该句没有揭示Andy和文章作者之间的关系。接下来的句子说“尽管他很精明, 他还是有点羞于表达他的爱。 相反, 我是一个坦率直言的人, 我喜欢直接表达自己的情感。”结合这两句内容, 并参考文章开头第一个句子的内容(昨天是我们第三周年纪念日)综合判断Andy应该是文章作者的男朋友。

考点: 该题考察考生推断能力, 也考察文章主题(文章主题涉及作者的男朋友独特的表达爱的方式)。

提示: 可以利用题干中的特征性结构(人名, 地名, 组织机构名, 数字,年代, 时间等) 作为答案线索, 在文章中快速找到答案相关句。如果被选项中出现了特征性结构, 也可以利用被选项中的特征性结构快速在文章中找到对应的句子, 对该被选项进行直接判断。
2 When did the writer and Andy fall in love(相爱)?
A three years ago(以前)
B yesterday
C on a cold winter(冬天的) night
D after a quarrel(争吵)

C.问题句说: “什么时候作者和Andy相爱的?” 被选项都涉及到具体的时间状语(特征性结构), 因此可分别利用它们作为答案线索在文章中查找与这些被选项呼应的句子, 对被选项进行判断:

Yesterday was our three-year anniversary. (该句说“昨天是我们第三周年”, 因此判断“他们的相爱发生在至少三年以前”, 因此首先排除B。)We didn’t do anything romantic: we just walked hand in hand and talked about our past and future. This was pretty much what I had expected.

Andy is unromantic guy: no sweet words or roses. Smart as he is, he is a little bit shy expressing his love. In contrast, I am an outspoken girl who likes to show her feelings directly. So needless to say, I often feel that is insensitive. I envy other girls who are surrounded by sweet words.

I was in this sullen mood until I heard a beautiful sentence one day: “someone does not love you in the way you like, it does not mean that he does not love you.” This simple but sensible sentence made me think about our happy days and recall his deep concern for me.

One cold winter night, I got a high fever(发高烧). He hurried to my dorm and took me to the hospital. He was in such a hurry that he even forgot to wear socks. After arrival, he ran through the hospital handling all the formalities. When I was put on a drip, he told me interesting stories to make me happy. Being held in his warm arms and listening to his tender voice, I never felt so safe and comfortable. Gradually, I felt asleep. When I woke up 15 minutes later, he was still mumbling to me. He explained that if he had stopped talking I would have woke up. At that moment(时刻), I found(发现) love in his sparkling(闪闪发光的) eyes.该答案相关句涉及到文章中重要的细节信息, 因此推测该段可能存在考点. 该段最后一句(划线句)说“在那一时刻(作者生病窝床), 在他闪闪发光的眼中我发现了爱”, 根据该句判断此时可能就是文章作者和Andy相爱的时刻

Another time, I had a bad quarrel with my best friend. Although I knew it was my fault, I refused to admit it. I was angry when he insisted I apologize to her. He said that it was difficult to admit a mistake, but this was what everyone should do. The next morning, I apologized to my friend and asked for her forgiveness.

My unromantic boyfriend cares about my health like my father, understand me like my mother and helps me like my elder brother.

文章倒数第2段中提到了选项D中的核心词“争吵”, 但是该段中根本没有“love”这样的字眼出现, 因此D不是答案。

考点: 文章中重要的细节信息。

词语补充:

Fall vi.落下,下降, 变为;成为
e.g. The price of food has fallen.
e.g. Rain was falling steadily.
fall ill病倒
语法补充(半系动词):
fall, go, turn, become, remain, stay
fall asleep入睡
e.g. Her hair's going grey.
e.g. The light turned red.
e.g. He became thirsty.
e.g. He has become an expert.
e.g. He remains a worker.
Stay healthy 保持身体健康

3. Which statement(说法) is true of (符合)the writer?
A she likes(喜欢, 象) running after(追求) romantic(浪漫的) guys
B she does not like sweet words
C she likes expressing(表达) her feelings directly(直接地)
D she does not like roses

C. 问题句说“下列哪个说法与作者的实际情况一致?”。利用被选项中的细节信息(A: romantic guys, B: sweet words; C: express feelings directly;D:roses)作为答案线索,在文章中查找与被选项形成呼应的句子,对被选项进行一一判断:
Yesterday was our three-year anniversary. We didn’t do anything romantic: we just walked hand in hand and talked about our past and future. This was pretty much what I had expected.

Andy is unromantic guy: no sweet words or roses. Smart as he is, he is a little bit shy expressing his love. In contrast, I am an outspoken(坦率直言的) girl who likes to show her feelings directly. So needless to say, I often feel that is insensitive. I envy(羡慕, 嫉妒) other girls who are surrounded by(被...围绕) sweet words.

第2段中出现了所有被选项中涉及到的细节信息,因此推测真正答案相关句应该出现在该段落中。该段第2个相关句(划线句)说“我是一个坦率直言的人, 我喜欢直接表达我的情感”, 该句内容与C 一致, 因此C是答案。

考点: 考察定语从句。

提示:如果问题句(及被选项)中出现细节信息结构(反映文章中涉及到的具体细节信息的结构), 则常常可以利用这些细节信息作为答案线索, 在文章中快速定位答案相关句。

4. The writer tells(告诉) the reader two stories(故事, 新闻报道) to show(表明) that

A Andy is a romantic guy
B Andy has his own way to express love
C Andy is an interesting(有趣的) guy
D Andy is a foolish(愚蠢的, 苯的) guy

B. 解析: 选项B与文章标题/主题(His own way to express love)一致, 因此B是答案。

提示: 被选项的内容如果与文章主题一致, 或直接/间接包含文章主题, 则该被选项成为答案选项的可能性较大。

该题涉及文章主题, 文章第3段就是整篇文章的主题句(观点句):

(第3段)I was in this sullen(闷闷不乐的) mood(心情, 情绪) until(到...为止) I heard(听到) a beautiful(美丽的) sentence(句子)one day: “someone(某人, 有人) does not love you in the way(方式, 道路) you like, it does not mean(意味着) that he does not love you.” This simple(简单的) but sensible(有哲理的, 明智的) sentence made me think about(考虑) our happy(快乐的) days and recall(回忆) his deep(深切的, 深奥的, 深的) concern(关怀, 关心, 关心的事情) for me.

One cold winter night, I got a high fever. He hurried to my dorm and took me to the hospital. He was in such a hurry that he even forgot to wear socks. After arrival, he ran through the hospital handling all the formalities. When I was put on a drip, he told me interesting stories to make me happy. Being held in his warm arms and listening to his tender voice, I never felt so safe and comfortable. Gradually, I felt asleep. When I woke up 15 minutes later, he was still mumbling to me. He explained that if he had stopped talking I would have woke up. At that moment, I found love in his sparkling eyes.

Another time(另一次), I had a bad quarrel with(与.. 争吵) my best friend. Although I knew it was my fault, I refused to admit it. I was angry when he insisted I apologize to her. He said that it was difficult to admit a mistake, but this was what everyone should do. The next morning, I apologized to my friend and asked for her forgiveness.

My unromantic boyfriend cares about(担心) my health like my father, understand(理解) me like my mother and helps(帮助) me like my elder brother.(概括句)

第3段说“我一直闷闷不乐, 直到有一天我听到了一句动人的话语: 他爱你的方式可能你不喜欢, 但这并不意味着他不爱你, 这句简单而有哲理的话语使我想起我们快乐的时光, 回忆起他对我深切的关怀。”该段暗示Andy有自己表达爱的方式。接下来作者例举了两个具体的例子以论证他(Andy)表达爱的方式很特别。 文章最后一句是概括总结句, 该句再次暗示文章作者的男朋友拥有自己独特的表达爱的方式。
考点: 考察文章主题。

5. The word sullen in paragraph 3 could be best replaced by (被...替代)
A cheerful(快乐的)
B calm (平静的)
B painful (痛苦的)
D bad(坏的,劣质的,有害的 )

D. 解析: 问题句说“哪个被选项是第3段中sullen的替代词?”。该题可以直接通过查字典确认sullen的词义为“闷闷不乐的”, D的含义最接近, 因此D是答案。
