Question

【题目】阅读下列短文,从每小题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中选出最佳选项。
Campbell Remess, a 12-year-old boy from Tasmania, has an unusual hobby—sewing(缝纫). He makes teddy bears, and gives them to children at the local hospital. “If Campbell could be on that sewing machine for 24 hours, he would,” said his mother, Sonia.
Campbell is one of nine children, so when he had the idea of giving Christmas presents to kids in hospital, the only choice was to make them himself. “First, I took a lot of practice,” said Campbell. “ I haven't sewn anything before.” He downloaded patterns from the Internet and learned by trial and error （反复试验）. At first, a bear took him five hours to make, but now it only takes him an hour to make a bear.
Campbell visits the hospital every Thursday, giving out new bears and visiting kids whom he's given gifts before. “He looks at sadness and tries to turn it upside down,” Said Sonia.
There has been sadness in his family, too. Five years age, his father Nathan had cancer. Even though he received the medical treatment, there was still an 80-percent recurrence rate（复发率）. “When we discovered Dad had cancer, we all felt very upset.,” said Campbell. “As a result, the cancer got worse with stress. So I made my first bear, hoping that Dad could be free from cancer.
Since Nathan got the bear, ▲ It's the longest period he has been free from cancer.“ there's a little magic in it,” said Nattan. “ A lot of magic in Campbell though.”
Campbell explained his project with this: “ I think being kind will change the world.”

【答案】

（2）C
（3）A
（4）D
（5）B
【解析】本文讲述一个9岁的男孩坎贝尔会使用缝纫机做泰迪熊的故事。
⑴句意理解。“If Campbell could be on that sewing machine for 24 hours, he would,”这是一个虚拟语气，句中would后省略了条件句中相同的部分be on on that sewing machine for 24 hours在那个缝纫机上干24个小时，句中的24hours实际上指代“他的全部时间”，故选B。
⑵推理判断。根据第二段I haven't sewn anything before以前没有缝过任何东西，He downloaded patterns from the Internet and learned by trial and error 从网上下载模板反复试验，所以坎贝尔是自学做泰迪熊的，故选C。
⑶细节理解。根据第四段可知坎贝尔父亲5年前患了癌症，虽然经过治疗，但是有80%的复发率。为了不让父亲感到压力， I made my first bear, hoping that Dad could be free from cancer. 坎贝尔做了第一个熊。故选A。
⑷句子理解兼顾语法。since自从，从句用一般过去式，主句用现在完成时。结合后一句 It's the longest period he has been free from cancer可知“这是最长的一段时间他身上没有癌症。”free from不受…影响的;免于;没有;...。故选D。
⑸主旨大意。根据文章内容可知坎贝尔的初心是让患癌症的父亲不感到压力快点康复做了第一个泰迪熊，然后就喜欢上了做泰迪熊，并把它们送给医院里患病的小孩子们。根据文章最后“ I think being kind will change the world.”善良能改变世界，所以选B。
