《选择》阅读题答案

《选择》阅读题答案《选择》海啸来得毫无征兆,它们瞬间漫过了马塔尔监狱高高的围墙,刺耳的警报和狱警以及犯人们的厉声尖叫被巨大的海浪撕得粉碎。
监狱长海尔墨面对这突如其来的灾难显得惊慌失措,因为他比谁都清楚马塔尔监狱总共关押了410名囚犯,其中还有85名死囚,而用不了多久整个监狱就将葬身海底。
海尔墨用抖的手抓起电话,他想向上级请示一下,可是电话线路早已被海啸冲毁。
留给海尔墨的时间已经不多了,他沮丧地瘫坐在椅子上,此刻马塔尔监狱的狱警们已经把监狱长的办公室围得水泄不通,每个人的脸上都写满了对死神的恐惧。
“我们已经没有时间转移犯人,如果再拖延的话连我们自己都将丧生,在撤离前我不得不做出选择!”海尔墨举起监狱囚室的钥匙下达了最后的命令。
“斯各特一号囚室,纽曼二号囚室,鲁米斯三号囚室。
打开囚室大门让犯人们暂时逃生去吧!最后请大家迅速撤离,愿上帝保佑我们都能平安!”海尔墨话音刚落,狱警们四散逃离,斯各特和纽曼飞奔向囚室去执行监狱长的命令,唯独鲁米斯这个头发花白的老狱警还呆呆地站在监狱长办公室。
监狱长有些愤怒了:“疯了吗?还不走,难道要等海水淹没了你的脑袋才清醒吗?”“可是,可是还有四号囚室的门……”鲁米斯哆着呼喊,声音很快被巨大的海浪冲击声淹没。
海尔墨变得声嘶力竭:“四号囚室关押的都是死囚,对他们来说死是早晚的事情,难道你想把他们放出去继续杀人越货吗?我是监狱长,我可承担不起这样的责任!”说完,海尔墨激动地往门外跑。
鲁米斯向前一步紧紧拽住他的衣服,狠狠地盯着他:“现在他们将必死无疑,难道死囚就不是生命吗?”海尔墨完全被这个平日里沉默文雅的老头给震惊了,他无奈地指指自己的办公桌:“如果你不怕接受被审判的命运,四号囚室的钥匙就在我办公桌的抽屉里!”巨大的马塔尔监狱到处是夺路狂奔的犯人,四号囚室的大门已经快被海水淹没,愤怒的死囚们的吼声让人毛骨悚然。
鲁米斯深深吸了一口气潜入水底,“哐当”一声,囚室的大门终于打开了,马塔尔监狱所有的死囚带着对生的渴望,呼啸着从那个头发花白的老狱警身旁游过。
《生命的选择》阅读练习及答案

《生命的选择》阅读练习及答案篇一:生命的选择阅读答案生命的选择①在我住的这一栋楼的前边,是一片开阔的空地。
这片向阳的地方,从早晨太阳一升起,地上便红地毯一般,铺满了霞光。
中午,一直到傍晚,太阳被西边的高楼遮挡之前,空地上都是一片明媚的阳光。
②多好的一块空地。
花工们便将这里设计成一座小小的花园,四周栽种上一些秋季会抽出茸茸的花穗的纤草,拥围着一个圆圆的花坛。
种些什么呢?见花工们细细地松软着花坛的湿土,人们猜测着。
自然是蔷微①了,花工们说。
③不多日子,油黑的蔷微叶子便密密地遮蔽了黄土;似乎这期间,不过一阵、两阵小雨,人们一如既往匆匆走过那花坛,忙各自的事情。
突然一日,有人惊奇地喊了一声:多好的玫瑰!④人们好像一下子被那花惊醒了。
红的、黄的、粉的,一时间各色玫瑰,竞相绽放开来,惹得人眼里一亮一亮。
有一些美丽的花朵装点生活,日子平添了些色彩、滋味和乐趣。
大人、孩子,过路时总会留住脚步,欣赏一番。
大楼里常年不曾搭话的领居,此时也都能找到共同的话题。
坚硬的生活,顿时变得柔软多了。
⑤人们夸奖那些花朵、花工之后,便要说太阳明亮的照耀,才使花朵有了色彩。
不过,谁也说不清是花朵选择了太阳,还是太阳选择了花朵。
⑥可是有一日,有孩子突然提醒大人们,到楼后去看看,说那里也有花。
⑦楼后?怎么可能呢?那里的阳光,结结实实被这楼房遮掩着,而且还有一些高大的槐树,枝丫互相勾扯着,地上是永远的潮湿和阴凉,甚至还有一些灰尘和垃圾被风卷到那里。
春天,当所有的地面上都干干的、亮亮的,惟独楼后肮脏的残雪还迟迟不肯化开。
那里怎么会有花呢?⑧拗不过孩子的拉扯,就到楼后看看去吧!这时已是傍晚,朦朦胧胧的月光下,人们果然看到白花花的一些已绽放的花朵。
粗粗的、长长的花朵,挺在硕大的绿叶上,倒像是插了满头玉簪、银簪的古代仕女。
庄重里透着一些羞怯,没有人能叫出那花的名字,只是花开得雪白,单纯而圣洁,让人燥热的心头有被一股清凉清凉的水酒洗过一般舒坦。
⑨第二天,赶快去问花工,回答说:那是白玉簪,性喜阴凉潮湿,花开得高洁得很哩。
《选择阳光》阅读答案

《选择阳光》阅读答案篇一:选择阳光阅读答案选择阳光阅读答案那一天,我回去城里造访一位朋友。
在下午Though时,乘坐上一辆驶向乡下的大巴。
汽车只行出来几站,便上来一位盲人,看起来他存有60多岁。
因为我距离车门较将近,便协助他将背包摆不好。
他嘴里一边说道着谢谢,一边在我身边的座位上起身。
然后,他微笑着问我家住哪里。
当我告诉他住在海西时,他竟兴奋地说:“你们那里,我可去过很多次。
在你们村子东南不远就是大海,村前有一条小路,路旁有一座龙王庙??”尽管这已是很多年前的情景,但老人说得很准确。
我瞅了瞅他失明的双目,感到有些诧异,在犹豫了一会儿之后,仍忍不住问:“老伯,你这眼??怎么会知道我们村子以前的情景呢?”老人毫不在意地微笑着说:“你怀疑我说瞎话?年轻的时候,我这两只眼并没有瞎。
我还当过兵哩,在青海开过车。
复员后,我被分配到一家化工厂里工作。
后来,因为工伤,我这两只眼睛才不行了。
”在说道这些话的时候,老人脸上的神情非常随心所欲。
我继续问:“城里的道路这么复杂,你出来不担心会迷路吗?”听到了,老人笑了起来,说道:“如果没胆量迈进一步,那我就可以一直睡在家里了。
现在,我每个星期都必须从乡下至城里来往两趟,一点都不害怕可以迷路。
”说到这儿时,老人的话题一转,说:“刚开始,我也很绝望,感觉自己就像一下子从这个世界上消失了似的。
但后来,我就想已经这样了,再怎么后悔也无济于事了。
于是,我就对自己说,走出去吧,只要抓准目标,走一步就近一步,这有什么好担心和害怕的呢?”此时,我被老人的话语深深地打动了。
我又问他:“老伯,你到城里来做什么呢?”他颇有些自豪地说:“是一家大医院,聘我给病人做推拿―――”我吃惊地问:“你还可以搞针灸?”老人平淡地说道:“就是呀,既然活著,就必须自学一门手艺,我研究针灸已经几十年了。
”到站后,在我起身下车的时候,聊兴正浓的老人看上去有些不舍,竟然关切地对我说:“走好啊―――”很长时间以来,那位双目失明老人的悲观和淡然的神情,一直萦绕在我的脑海之中。
《选择》阅读及参考答案

《选择》阅读及参考答案《选择》阅读及参考答案选择(16分)①音乐学院的最后一次考试,他整装而坐。
同学们的琴声从耳边飘过,那一刻,他眼里噙满泪水。
算算从6岁练琴至今近二十年,他从来没有真正喜欢过拉琴。
连他自己都想不明白,一个人竟然可以做一件自己不喜欢的事情这么久!②上了音乐学院,他仍然是那种很规范的学生。
老师一再对他说,你的技术真不错,可小提琴是门艺术,仅仅靠技术是不够的。
他知道,主要是没感情。
虽然与一把琴相伴了这么多年,但他对琴真的缺乏感情。
③儿时练琴,是在父亲一次次强迫下开始的。
迄今为止,他都弄不明白为什么父亲要逼着他选择拉琴。
多年来,练琴似乎成了他与父亲之间的一次次智力较量。
他从来没有办法战胜父亲,比如说,为什么家里父亲在时就有电,父亲外出时就没了电。
直到考上音乐学院附小他才弄清楚,是父亲把门外的电闸关了。
他想趁父亲不在家看电视或打电脑游戏,根本不可能。
那时候,每天除了上学,几乎所有的时间都练了那该死的琴,就连做梦都是如此。
④也曾上台演出,也参加了全国比赛,也获得过掌声和鲜花,但这一切并不能让他因此而快乐起来。
一旦拉琴,一种从心底浸漫过来的忧郁,让他无法进入真正的'音乐世界。
老师多次提示他,如果能够把这种感觉带入拉琴,一定会有不凡的表现。
但是他所有的情感只能存在于拉琴之前和拉琴之后,一旦握琴在手,弓弦相遇,就成了赶乐谱,一段接一段,直到把它们拉完。
起初见到他的教授们,一个个都对他充满了信心,这么小的年龄就有这么好的技术,完全可以调整过来。
直到他从附中考入音乐学院,这种情况依然没有改变,大家对此感到非常遗憾。
他成了学院里众所周知的另类。
不过,大家都在关注他,人们实在想看看,他到底会变成什么样子⑤终于站在老师们面前,这是他在音乐学院的最后一次拉琴,也是他毕业考试的最后一项自选曲目。
当老师用目光示意他可以开始后,他的弓子一反常态地先是在琴弦上一碰,发出了很响的一震。
继而,徐徐进入,不久已是琴声四溢,灌满了音乐室的每个角落。

《自然选择的证明》同步练习(含答案)

《自然选择的证明》同步练习(含答案)一、论述类文本阅读阅读下面的文字,完成下面小题。
①我很幸运能在进化论中徜徉,在整个科学领域中,进化论是最激动人心、最重要的理论之一。
②进化论之所以使许多人着迷,我想是由于这个理论的三个特点。
首先,根据现在发展的状况看,进化论的证明令人非常满意和信服,同时还有大量的宝藏没有挖掘出来。
其次,进化论是一门覆盖极其广泛的学科,既是涉及永恒、定量等带有普遍原则的科学,又与历史的独特性直接相关。
因此,在进化论的研究中,可以容纳各种风格和个性。
有的人在这个领域探讨纯粹抽象的问题(群体增长规律和DNA结构),有的人则揭示非常独特的棘手问题(霸王龙用弱小的前肢做什么)。
第三,进化论与我们的整个生活息息相关,因为我们总会关心一些重大的谱系问题:我们来自何方?这又意味着什么?当然,这个理论还涉及形形色色的生物,仅描述过的物种就已经超过了百万种,小到细菌,大到蓝鲸,还有大量的甲虫,每一种生物都有它的故事。
③然而,达尔文的学说一方面在扩展影响,另一方面其中的一些假设却失去了价值,至少是失去了普适性。
已经统治了30年的当代达尔文主义,即“现代综合论”,利用局部群体的适应基因替换的积累和扩大模式,来解释生命的整个历史。
在小的局部群体的适应调节方面,这种模式可能是出色的经验性说明;生活在已经被工业污染熏黑的树上,并且作为可见度的选择回应,桦尺蠖飞蛾(Biston betularia )的体色确实变黑了,而且的确是由于单个基因变化的积累。
但是,仅仅将这个过程扩大到更多的基因和更大的效应,就能解释新物种的起源吗?主要谱系中大的进化趋势只是连续适应变化的不断积累吗?许多进化论者(包括我本人)已经开始对现代综合论发出了挑战。
我们主张一种阶层体系的观点,认为不同层次的进化变化通常是由于不同种类的原因所致。
群体内微小的调节可能是连续的、适应的,但是造成这种事件的原因却是染色体的明显改变,这种变化导致某一物种与其他物种之间的不育,不过原因可能与适应无关。

第三大题阅读理解选择题首字母AAccording to experts,the advantage of modified food is that it helps in preventing the occurrence of allergies and also has along shelf life.However,a major portion of the population is against the consumption of genetically modified food and is concerned about its disadvantages.If you are also confused about the consumption of genetically modified food,read through the pros and cons given below and decide for yourself.Advantages of Genetically Modified Foods●One of the most prominent advantages of genetically modified food is that it helps in controlling the occurrence of certain diseases.Certain foods cause allergy to people.Their genetic modification alters the DNA system of these foods,thereby making them non-allergic.●Another major advantage of such type of foods is that they grow faster than their traditionally grown counterparts.As a result,there is greater productivity and more food.●A person need not bother about any additional costs,such as buying chemicals and pesticides,when it comes to genetically engineered food.The food is naturally pest-resistant.●Farming these foods can be a great way to fight world hunger.Since these crops grow faster or more effectively,increased production would help countries wherein crops may not normally prosper because of less than desirable environmental conditions.●The increased shelf life of these food products helps in reducing the quantity of rotten food.Disadvantages of Genetically Modified Foods●The biggest disadvantage of genetically modified food is that they have harmful effects on the human body.The consumption of these genetically engineered foods can lead to development of diseases that are immune to antibiotics.●Chances of developing cancer are high in people who regularly consume engineered food.●Since it is an unnatural way of producing foods,there is an increased health hazard such as allergens,transfer of antibiotic resistance markers and unknown effects.●Since the production of engineered food involves infusing animal genes in the crops and tampering with nature,it might not be good for consumption in the long run.特别提醒:本题共5个小题,需要拉动答题框右边的滚动条使5个试题显示出来做答!![单选题]◆How does

about breast enlargement in Thailand.Anyone who is not sure about breast enlargement should read this story first.Firstly,I was amazed at the level of care I received at the Thailand private hospital.It was like being in a luxury hotel.The nursing staffs were also better than those who I have ever met in all my years in America.Not only were they professional,but kinder and more patient than Western nurses.The hospital food was excellent,so I was able to choose from a large and varied Menu.In my private room,there was cable T.V.,a fridge,a phone,and impressive views of Bangkok(曼谷).My Translator was able to communicate with me,and the plastic surgeons arranged the whole operation without me lifting a finger.The operation cost me a third of the price of the U.K.With the low cost of the air tickets and a holiday,it worked out at about half UK’s price,because the cost in Thailand is so cheap.Combining a plastic surgery with a holiday in an amazing place is an unforgettable experience.From the moment I arrived in Bangkok airport,I felt relaxed and welcomed by the Plastic Surgery&Holiday team,it made me feel that I had friends here

you think3D printing is only good for making flimsy paperweights.then you’re pretty much right.However.a group of audacious Dutch architects have already begun3D printing an entire canal house in Amsterdam.Is the first3D printed house a gimmick?Definitely!Is it an experiment that pushes the possibilities for3D printing technology and architecture?Maybel3D Print Canal House is the brainchild of DUS Architects.“KamerMaker’.Dutch for’room maker”,is their giant printer built inside a shipping container.Just a few weeks ago,KamerMaker began printing plastic furniture and walls at an empty canal-side lot in northern Amsterdam.Smaller versions of the unusual honeycomb walls have been tested on normal desktop printers,and everyone just needed to scale it up.Well,if only it were that easy.The printer did not always manage to spread the plastic evenly,making some of the ribs of the honeycomb structure of the block uneven.reported ARN(Australian Radio Network,to the surprise of no one who has used a 3D printer.But the architects remain optimistic.The first few printed blocks are meant to be test pieces as they improve the process.It takes about a week to print a3-meter high block right now.The project’s leader hopes to eventually get that down to two hours and finish the first of12rooms in a year.and the entire house in less than3years. Ultimately,3D Print Canal House is an architectural research project,one that is very much being conducted in the public eye:you can actually buy tickets to visit the construction site

out the horrible black smoke.What are you going to do about it?In our modem days,too many people depend on their cars to get to work or to drop off their children to school.However,is it safe to have an increasing number of cars on our roads?Research shows that cars create serious pollution.Exhaust from all combustion engines produce harmful effects on the health of both car users and all innocent walkers.Cities have become islands of toxic chemicals from the unrestrained use of vehicles burning fossil fuels.The harmful health effects of car exhaust are pervasive and difficult to measure.For example,people with asthma would suffer with attacks due to the pollution.The world wild life also suffers from the cars’toxic emissions.No matter how much manufacturers try to make cars environmentally friendly it will damage our earth in one way or another.Additionally cars are too dangerous for our community.Careless drivers put themselves and others in danger.Cars are critical to walkers especially to children if the driver is not looking on the road or somehow distracted Have you known someone whose toes or feet have been run over by cars while crossing the street?Lastly.cars create social problems,which could lead to poor health.A few drivers suffer“Road Rage”and put themselves.loved ones and others in a threatening situation.Some cars create disturbing noises,which disturbs people living near highways,freeways,etc.not to get enough sleep.People depend on their cars so much that they forgot to exercise their bodies and end up being obese or having a heart problem.As a result of the excessive number of cars on our roads,everyone’s life is in danger.In order to create an environmentally friendly and safe world,it is necessary for each country to limit the permits in number to control regional air pollution.Second,car manufacturers should try to improve the efficiency of vehicles,such as finding solutions to emissions of combustion engines,developing new power sources such as new fuels,natural gas.Third,try to improve efficiency of traffic by setting up dedicated bus lanes and giving priority to car-pools and vehicles with3or more passengers.Besides,traffic can be scheduled;for example,commercial traffic atnight;large companies can shift working hours and decentralize administrative

proper operation to cut off that bad foot.Months after the healing process,engineers at Nova copy Company produced a3D printed model that would be used to create a prosthetic(修复的)foot for the duck.Considering that ABS plastics were not flexible enough for this type of exercise,the Nova copy company made a three-dimension ally modeled foot made of silicone,with the hope to create a permanent prosthesis(假肢)for the duck.It took just13hours to produce.This3D prosthesis demonstrated the3D technologies can be used not only for human application,but also in foreign subjects such as

by robotics company Shanghai PT Info,the brightly colored robot,which costs 5,000yuan($790),was launched on Aug14to help entertain and monitor elderly people.In Shanghai last year,the number of registered residents at least60years old was4million.That was nearly30 percent of the population.By2018,the figure is projected to rise to5million.With many living alone,robots such as Roby Mini can help playa crucial role in caring for the elderly.“It will change the way people interact with digital products,”Hong says.Founded in May,Shanghai PT Info had already done the groundwork.In fact,the research team spent three years developing the speech recognition system before the firm was officially launched.With360-degree wheels hidden under its body,Roby Mini can follow a person through face recognition and strike up a conversation,tell jokes or provide information.The robot also works as a computer terminal,supplying weather information,ordering groceries online and even booking taxis.Roby Mini can be connected to other gadgets as well,such as smart wristbands or magnetic devices on doors.Roby Mini can also connect an elderly owner to a doctor through its high-definition screen.Already Shanghai PT Info is talking to three community hospitals in Shanghai’s Min hang district.Since the robot is linked to the Internet,it can support long-distance audio and video calls.Mass production started this month and Shanghai PT Info plans to manufacture200,000units this year.But the future is not easy for Shanghai PT Info.Earlier this year,Flying wings Intelligent Robot Technology(Shanghai)introduced a machine with sensors that will ring an alarm when an elderly person falls down.Tianjin Shangjiu Sheng yuan Technology Group also developed a robot for seniors in2014.Owners can turn on the lights and air-conditioning units by pressing buttons on the machine.It can also remind elderly owners to take pills,and inform them of hospital checkups and family birthdays.特别提醒:本题共5个小题,需要拉动答题框右边的滚动条使5个试题显示出来做答!!◆Roby Mini is the name of_________.A.a robotics companyB.a robotC.a senior citizen living alone[答案]B[单选题]◆Roby Mini is designed to_________.A.help look

we can apply on a daily basis.Such goals can be achieved in a week or less,or two weeks,or possibly months.It should be remembered that just as a building is no stronger than its foundation,our long-term goals cannot amount to very much without the achievement of solid short-term goals.Upon completing our short-term goals,we should date the occasion and then add new short-term goals that will build on those that have been completed.The intermediate goals build on the foundation of the short-term goals.They might deal with just one term of school or the entire school year,or they could even extend for several years.Any time you move a step at a time,you should never allow yourself to become discouraged or overwhelmed.As you complete each step,you will enforce the belief in your ability to grow and succeed.And as your list of completion dates grows,your motivation and desire will increase.Long-term goals may be related to our dreams of the future.They might cover five years or more.Life is not a static thing.We should never allow a long-term goal to limit us or our course of action.特别提醒:本题共5个小题,需要拉动答题框右边的滚动条使5个试题显示出来做答!![单选题]◆Short-term goals are the ones that________.A.motivate you over the long haulB.keep you engaged on a daily basisC.might be measured for many years[答案]B[单选题]◆The medium-range goals are built upon________.A.belief and successB.the

discouraged.C.Life is a static thing,thus never allowing a long-term goal to limit us.[答案]A首字母WWhen computer servers operate a complex program,they can get very hot.Cooling the servers can be costly.So researchers asked what would happen if the heat created by the servers could be captured and used?Data centers of large Internet companies such as Google and Microsoft have thousands of computer servers.As these servers process information,they create large amounts of heat,so they need huge cooling systems,These systems send the heat into the air.The Dutch company Nerdalize thinks paying for electrieity to operate the servers and then paying again to cool them is a waste of energy.So it developed a device called the e-Radiator.It is a computer server that also works as a heating source.Boaz Leupe is the chief executive officer of Nerdalize,He says the e-Radiator saves money because companies don’t have to pay to cool their servers.“The kilowatt(千瓦)hour you are using is used twice-once to heat the home and once to compute the client’s task without the cooling overhead.”He says five homeowners in the Netherlands are testing the heating device in their homes.“We reimburse the electricity the server uses,and that we can do because of the computer clients on the other side,and,in that way,homeowners actually get heating for free,and computer users don’t have to pay for the overhead of the data center.”Jan Visser is one of the participants in the year-long experiment.He says the amount of heat produced by the e-Radiator into room depends on the work being done by the computer server.He says it can not be used as theprimary source of heat.But he is ready to try it.He says if it provides enough warmth,he will be able to use his home’s heating system less,which will save him money.Nerdalize says e-Radiators create heat temperatures of up to55℃.It says the devices could save users up to$440in heating costs a year.特别提醒:本题共5个小题,需要拉动答题框右边的滚动条使5个试题显示出来做答!![单选题]◆Why did researchers ask what would happen if the heat created by the servers could be captured and used?A.Because computers can get very hot.puter

HomesC.Hot Computers Could Be Used for Free[答案]AWHY BUILD A SPACE ELEVATOR?The space elevator will reduce the cost of getting from Earth to space.It will also allow us to take very large payloads into space very easily,very safely.Because of that,we can build cities on the moon.We can build space stations.We can build large solar arrays in space to collect energy from the sun and beam it down to Earth.WHY NOT JUST USE ROCKETS INSTEAD?Rockets are very expensive.The shuttle costs S10,000a pound to put a payload into low-Earth orbit,and if you want to go to the moon or Mars,it’s hundreds of thousands of dollars per pound or more.Rockets are also very limited in the amount of payload they can carry.and they’re risky.With a space elevator,the cost is a fraction of that-it may go down to100th or1,000th of current costs-and there are no rocket engines that might explode.WHAT WOULD IT BE LIKE TO RIDE THE ELEVATOR?You’d go to an ocean platform,you’d climb into a module,and you’d feel it start moving.You’d see the Earth fall away.In just a half hour or so,you’d pass up through the clouds,and you’d start to see the curve of the horizon.Another half an hour to an hour later,you’d basically be in space.You’d see stars,even in the middle of the day.Eventually you’d be weightless.It’d be a very smooth ride:there wouldn’t be any shaking.ARE THERE POTENTIAL DRAWBACKS TO OPENING SPACE THIS WAY?Everything we do has the potential for creating some bad.If we mine an asteroid,the asteroid’s going to look ugly.just like a mine here.But I think the benefits of opening up space far outweigh the damage that we can see-benefits in terms of gaining energy from space to replace oil.additional capabilities in telecommunications. manufacturing in space.additional real estate and exploration.特别提醒:本题共5个小题,需要拉动答题框右边的滚动条使5个试题显示出来做答!![单选题]◆If a space elevator is built,what can’t be built by us?A.Cities on the moon.B.Space stations.C.Skyscrapers in space.D.Expressways in

alone?How would you like to climb into a robotic car and eat breakfast with the kids while you’re all driven to school and work?These scenarios may sound like science fiction,but experts say they’re a lot closer to becoming reality than you probably think.Brown University roboticist Chad Jenkins expects a near-term robot revolution that will echo the computing revolution of recent decades.And he

选择
[英国]罗伯特·库克
“有钱是多么快活!”坐在茶几旁的肖夫人,当她拿起古色古香的精细的银茶壶倒茶时,心里也许是这样想的。
她身上的穿戴,屋里的陈设,无不显示出家财万贯的气派。
她满面春风,得意之情溢于言表。
然而,由此而认定她是个轻浮的人,却是不公平的。
“你喜欢这幅画,我很高兴,”她对面前那位正襟危坐的年轻艺术家说,“我一直想得到一幅布吕高尔的名作,这是我丈夫上星期给我买的。
”
“美极了!”年轻人赞许地说,“你真幸运。
”肖夫人笑了,那两条动人的柳眉扬了扬。
她的双手细嫩而白,犹如用粉红色的蜡铸成似的,把那只金光灿灿的戒指衬得更加耀人眼目。
她举止娴静,既不抚发整衣,也不摆弄小狗或者茶杯。
她深深懂得,文雅能给予人一种感染力。
“幸运?”她说,“我并不相信这套东西。
选择才是决定一切的。
”年轻人大概觉得,她将富有归于选择两字,未免过于牵强。
但他什么也没说,只是很有分寸地点点头,让肖夫人继续说下去。
“我的情况就是个明证。
”
“你是自己选择当有钱人的啰?”年轻人多少带点揶揄的口吻。
“你也可以这样说。
十五年前,我还是一个拙笨的学生……”肖夫人略微停停,故意给对方说点恭维话的机会。
但年轻人正在暗暗计算她在学校里呆的时间。
“你看,”肖夫人继续说,“我那时只知道玩,身上又有一种叫什么自然美的东西,但却有两个年轻人同时爱上了我。
到现在我也搞不清楚他们为什么会爱上我。
”
年轻人似乎已横下心不说任何恭维的话,但也没有流露出丝毫烦躁的神色,虽然一直在考虑如何将谈话引到有意义的话题上去。
他太固执了,怎么也不肯逢迎。
“两个当中,一个是穷得叮当响的学艺术的学生,”肖夫人说,“他是个浪漫可爱的青年。
他没有从商的本领,也没有亲戚的接济。
但他爱我,我也爱他。
另外的一个是一位财力显赫的商人的儿子。
他处事精明,看来前程未可限量。
如果从体格这个角度去衡量,也可称得上健美。
他也像那位学艺术的学生一样倾心于我。
”
靠在扶手椅上的年轻人赶忙接住话茬,免得自己打呵欠。
“这选择是够难的。
”他说。
“是的。
要么是家中一贫如洗,生活凄苦,接触的尽是些蓬头垢面的人。
但这是罗曼蒂克的爱情,是真正的爱情。
要么是住宅富丽堂皇,生活无忧无虑,服饰时髦,嘉宾盈门,还可到世界各地旅游,一切都应有尽有……要是能两全其美就好了。
”
肖夫人的声调渐渐变得有点伤感。
“我在犹豫不决的痛苦中煎熬了一年,始终想不出其他办法。
很清楚,我必须在两人当中作出选择,但不管怎样,都难免使人感到惋惜。
最后……”肖夫人环视了一下她那曾为一家名叫《雅致居室》的杂志提供过不少照片的华丽的客厅,“最后,我决定了。
”
就在肖夫人要说出她如何选择的这相当戏剧性的时刻,外面进来了一位仪表堂堂的先生,谈话被打断了。
这位先生,不但像一位时装展览的模特儿,而且像一幅名画里的人物,他同这里的环境十分协调。
他吻了一下肖夫人,肖夫人继而将年轻人介绍给她的丈夫。
他们在友好的气氛中谈了十五分钟。
肖先生说,他今天碰见了“可怜的老迪克·罗杰斯”,还借给他一些钱。
“你真好,亲爱的。
”肖夫人漫不经心地说。
肖先生稍坐了一会儿就出去了。
“可怜的迪克·罗杰斯,”肖夫人喟然叹道,“我料你已猜到了,那就是另外的一个。
我丈夫经常周济他。
”
“令人钦佩。
”年轻人略略地说,他想不出更好的回答。
他该走了。
“我丈夫经常关照他的朋友,我不明白他哪来这么多时间。
他工作够忙的。
他给海军上
将画的那幅肖像……”
“肖像?”年轻人十分惊讶,猛然从扶手椅上坐直了身子。
“是的,肖像。
”肖夫人说,“哦,我没有说清楚吧?我丈夫就是那位原来学艺术的穷学生。
我们现在喝点东西,怎么样?”
年轻人点点头,似乎不知该说什么才好。
(1)下列对小说有关内容的分析和概括,最恰当的两项是(5分)
A.小说的情节起伏有致,作者先娓娓叙写肖夫人与年轻人交谈的情形,接着写她谈年轻时的选择,到“最后,我决定了”,使情节达到高潮。
B.肖夫人美丽娴雅,举止得体。
从她身上的穿戴,到她屋里的陈设,都显出生活的富足、气派,她对现在拥有的一切感到十分满意和快活。
C.年轻人认为肖夫人“幸运”,肖夫人却相信“选择”,话不投机,谈话气氛也不够和谐,但年轻人并没有多说什么,表现出他的礼貌和艺术气质。
D.肖夫人学生时代的两个追求者,一个是穷困的学艺术的学生,一个是富有的显赫商人的儿子,在对比中,前者代表了现实,后者代表了浪漫。
E.肖夫人的举手投足和富足生活给了“年轻人”一个印象,使他甚至也使读者误解了肖夫人年轻时的选择,这实际上是小说作者的刻意安排。
(2)小说中肖夫人丈夫回来的一段情节安排,有哪些作用?(6分)
(3)小说中几处画线的句子分别表现了年轻人怎样的心理?请简要分析。
(6分)(4)关于这篇小说作者对主人公肖夫人的态度,有人认为是肯定、赞美,有人认为是否定、讽刺,你认为呢?请结合全文,谈谈你的观点和具体理由。
(8分)参考答案
(1)BE
A项,对小说高潮部分的判断有误,高潮部分在结尾。
C项,“表现出他的礼貌和艺术气质”的分析有误,与“艺术气质”无关。
D项,应是前者代表浪漫,后者代表现实。
(2)①描写肖夫人丈夫仪表不凡,充满艺术气质,同时表现肖夫人夫妇体面、富足、和谐的生活,突出肖夫人选择的正确。
②巧妙、俭省地交代肖夫人年轻时的另外一个追求者,曾经“财力显赫的商人的儿子”如今潦倒、落魄的生活境遇,并侧面说明肖夫人选择的正确。
③情节安排显得张弛有度,并加深年轻人对肖夫人的误解,使结尾更具“既在情理之中,又在意料之外”的审美效果。
(3)第①处:轻视、嘲弄的心理,认为貌美的女人多数都蠢笨,眼前的肖夫人也不例外。
第②处:厌倦、掩饰的心理,不想听肖夫人啰嗦她年轻时的浪漫故事,为避免失态赶紧接话。
第③处:意外、惊讶的心理,肖夫人年轻时选择的竟然是“学艺术的穷学生”,吃惊之余一时不知所措。
(4)答案观点一:肯定、赞美。
①从多处叙写可看出,作者对肖夫人肯定、欣赏的态度。
如“由此而认定她是个轻浮的人,却是不公平的”“她深深懂得,文雅能给予人一种感染力”等。
②从肖夫人选择时痛苦煎熬的描写中,可看出她内心的矛盾,真实地反映出抉择之难。
而从最终选择穷学生的表现中,可看出她对真爱的不舍和坚定。
③肖夫人坚信“选择才是决定一切的”,而现在丈夫能给海军上将画肖像,恰说明肖夫人向往艺术,追求浪漫,能摒弃眼前的浮华,有眼光,不短视。
观点二:否定、讽刺。
①从多处描写可看出,肖夫人对现在有钱的生活感到快活和得意,很想得到别人对她的恭维和赞美,显得有些浅薄。
②从肖夫人选择时希望两个追求者能“两全其美”,和她“在犹豫不决的痛苦中煎熬了一年”的描写中,可看出她对浮华的向往,对真爱曾经的动摇。
③肖夫人的丈夫,靠艺术脱贫而至于富有,但却将艺术媚俗了,结果是给海军上将等权贵画肖像。
最初选择浪漫的肖夫人还是为庸俗所侵蚀,最终选择了庸俗。
