Question

When I met him,I had a lot of anger inside of me.I’ve lived my whole life in Spanish Harlem,but in my neighborhood,there are shoot-ups all the time.I know kids who have been shot or beaten up.I have friends who ended up in prison.I could have ended up that way,too,but Mr.Clark wouldn’t let that happen.

Mr.Clark worked long hours,making sure I did my work.My grades rose.In fact,the scores of our whole class rose.One day,he took our class to see The Phantom of the Opera,and it was the first time some kids had ever been out of Harlem.Before the show,he treated us to dinner at a restaurant and taught us not to talk with our mouths full.We did not want to let him down.

Mr.Clark was selected as Disney’s 2000 Teacher of the Year.He said he would draw three names out of a hat;those students would go with him to Los Angeles to get the award.But when the time came to draw names,Mr.Clark said,“You’re all going.”

On graduation day,there were a lot of tears.We didn’t want his class to end.In 2001,he moved to Atlanta,but he always kept in touch.He started giving lectures about education,and wrote a bestselling book based on his classroom rules,The Essential 55.In 2003,Mr.Clark took some of us on a trip to South Africa to deliver school supplies and visit orphanages(孤儿院).It was the most amazing experience of my life.It’s now my dream to one day start a group of women’s clubs,helping people from all backgrounds.

Answer 1

【小题1】A

【小题2】D

【小题3】A

【小题4】D

解析:

【小题1】这是一道细节推断题。根据第一段“I have friends who ended up in prison.I could have ended up that way,too,but Mr.Clark wouldn’t let that happen.”可知“我”可能会像其他朋友那样最后进了监狱，但是克拉克先生没有让这件事情(我进监狱)发生，所以选A项。

【小题2】这是一道细节推断题。根据第四段“He started giving lectures about education,and wrote a bestselling book based on his classroom rules,The Essential 55.”可知他(Mr.Clark)根据自己的课堂纪律写了一本畅销书叫“The Essential 55”，所以“The Essential 55”是一本书的名字。

【小题3】这是一道推理题。根据第三段“But when the time came to draw names,Mr.Clark said,‘You’re all going.’”可知本来要从帽子里抽出3个孩子的名字一起去领奖，但是最后孩子们都去了，也就是没有从帽子里抽取名字。

【小题4】这是一道归纳题。本文介绍了一个优秀的老师，他爱护学生，以身作则，用自身的行动得到了孩子们的爱戴和尊敬。A选项错误是因为Mr.Clark去非洲是送装备和探访孤儿院；B选项错误是因为建立女性俱乐部是作者的愿望，而不是老师的；C选项错误是从文中可以看出帮助学生提高成绩只是好老师的一个方面，文章并没有强调老师如何帮助学生提高成绩。
