10.History is a record of what has happened in the past.(36)C The really fascinating thing is that much of history has been repeated time and again.It allows us to learn from the past,both the mistakes made and the successes achieved.
One of the benefits of history is reading how other people both famous and totally unknown have overcome tremendous challenges in their life.These challenges,although particular to a person,or to a certain time in the past,or occurring in a different country or culture,all convey the same thing.(37)E
(38)B He encountered many failures while on the road to finally inventing the modern day light bulb.He could be held out as an example of a person who never gave up.(39)D However,he did not let those failures stop him.He had a dream and he just kept trying different things until he did reach success.
Or,consider the story of Abraham Lincoln who managed to become President of the United States even though he suffered many setbacks and personal losses.Most of us only realize the success of Mr.Lincoln becoming President.(40)F His life was not an easy one.His story is one that motivates us to keep moving forward no matter what obstacles we have in life.

A.History has a lot of influence on us.
B.Take for example the story of Thomas Edison.
C.History has some very unique qualities about it.
D.I am sure he was discouraged by his many failures.
E.They convey wisdom in their short stories of perseverance.
F.Few of us knew about the many challenges he had to overcome.
G.Only those with courage to face challenges can hope to live their dreams.

分析 本文属于说明文阅读,作者通过这篇文章向我们说明了历史真正吸引人的是它不断在重复,并举出了爱迪生克服了很多次失败最终发明了灯泡,以及林肯遭遇了很多挫折终于成为总统,告诉我们成功的路上总会有很多困难,我们不能轻易放弃.

解答 36.C  本题考查前后句子的联系,根据后文 The really fascinating thing is that much of history has been repeated time and again.可知讲述了历史真正吸引人的是历史是不断重复的,因此前文应该写出历史有独特的品质,故选C.
37.E  本题考查前后句子的联系,根据前文These challenges,although particular to a person,or to a certain time in the past,or occurring in a different country or culture,all convey the same thing.可知这些挑战虽然是特定的人,或在过去的某一时间,或发生在一个不同的国家或文化,都传达着同样的东西,因此后文应该讲述传达的内容,故选E.
38.B  本题考查前后句子的联系,根据后文He encountered many failures while on the road to finally inventing the modern day light bulb.他在发明灯泡时遇到很多次失败,因此这里举出了爱迪生的例子,故选B.
39.D  本题考查前后句子的联系,根据后文However,he did not let those failures stop him.然而他并没有让这些失败阻挡他的脚步,可知他也曾因为失败而感到气馁,故选D.
40.F  本题考查前后句子的联系,根据前文Most of us only realize the success of Mr.Lincoln becoming President.我们只知道林肯作为总统获得的成功,不知道他所克服的挑战,故选F.

点评 本文需要学生通读全文,了解文章大意,分析句型,明确关联关系,结合上下文判断,确定答案后带入复查.

Is it fair for restaurants to ban little eaters? In Monronroeville, a local restaurant, McDain’s, recently decided to ban young children. Alice Roseman, its manager, says kids have bad manners and make too much noise. Other people, however, say the rule is hard to accept. Since it has become a hot topic in public, we caught several local people talking about it.

YES

There is no law stopping restaurants from banning young children. Restaurant owners should be allowed to ban them. Kids often run around and cause problems for waiters and other customers.

----Kate Barker

Kids always cause a mess, but the parents refuse to do anything about their kids’ behaviors. Although kids may be at the center of their parents’ universe, they aren’t at the center of everyone else’s.

------Mike Vuick

Adults sometimes want to talk and enjoy their dinner, but they can’t if a child is crying and running all over the place. That’s why sometimes parents don’t like eating at home. They wish they could have a good meal in the restaurants without kids’ noise.

------Dale Levitsky

NO

Banning kids from restaurants is a bad idea. If kids were banned, many restaurants would lose business. Even if restaurants gave customers the chance to buy take-away meals for their kids, many families would probably still not eat there.

--------Nicholas Song

Restaurants owners who ban kids think all children are wild and rude. But that’s not true. Most children’s eating behaviors are good enough. Even though some kids do have bad manners, banning is not a right way to teach them. I think how a society treats its children is important. After all, all kids are people, too.

Adele Geras's moving story Out In The Dark was set in World War I,in which young Rob came back from the battlefields.Determined to find the officer's widow to return the photo of her and their daughter that the captain kept with him,he traveled several thousand miles but never gave up.
Dead Man Talking is a fantastic tale of Pat,who had a terrible fight with his best friend,Joe,ten years ago--but now hears that Joe is dead,and he must attend his funeral.But Joe is not going quietly that very night--he's lying in his coffin being very chatty indeed.
