Unit 5 First aid.閱讀理解2017·湖南岳陽(yáng)高三質(zhì)檢I was fairly new to this particular school since my parents only moved to the area.There was a boy，who，as it turned out，was an orphan and was living and working for a small farming family.He didn't appear at first glance to ever be fully engaged (專注) in the school learning process；he would sit quietly，never seem to get any attention from the teacher，and would spend a lot of time staring out of the window just behind him.Over the next few weeks，I got to know this boy while playing outside in the schoolyard playing baseball or soccer.He was very athletic and very good at anything we played.I started to wonder why he didn't seem to do well in school and why the teacher ignored him.He told me he had been in several foster (收養(yǎng)) homes since he was a little boy and that most of his time in the last few years had always been on farms.He said he was made to work before he went to school and as soon as he got home until it was time for bed.He was never given a chance to go out and play，nor was he allowed to have any friends although he told me he really didn't have any friends anyway，because he was an orphan and they did not want anything to do with him.I had never before been acquainted with prejudice of any kind.Here was one characteristic of a human being who through no fault of his own carried a label (標(biāo)簽) that prevented him from even having friends as a child.His potential was also being ignored by the teacher.It wasn't that he couldn't learn，or didn't want toit was because he wasn't encouraged or in some cases，allowed to.We may all meet people through the years that we tend to apply labels to without really taking the time to get to know them，to discover their real potential because our vision is clouded by how we always put people into pigeon_holes that we are used to or comfortable with.1What was the first impression that the boy gave the author?AHe was a troublemaker in class.BHe was not drawn into learning.CHe often played outside in the schoolyard.DHe tried to get his teacher's attention.2The main idea of the third paragraph is _.Ahow the boy became homelessBthat the boy's family was very poorCwhy the boy didn't have any friendsDwho made the boy work day and night3The boy's potential was ignored because_.Ahe worked hardBhe liked playing baseballChe was athleticDhe was an orphan4What does “pigeon holes” in the last paragraph refer to?ASpecific categories. BA group of friends.CSpecial schools. DAnimals' homes.答案：解題導(dǎo)語(yǔ)本文講述了作者班上的一個(gè)孩子是個(gè)孤兒，沒(méi)有人會(huì)注意到他，但他在某些方面很有潛能，我們常常會(huì)把我們對(duì)于別人的認(rèn)知限制在一定范圍內(nèi)，應(yīng)該更多的關(guān)注和了解他們。1B解析：細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段提到He didn't appear at first glance to ever be fully engaged (專注) in the school learning process.可知他好像不太專注于學(xué)習(xí)的過(guò)程，故選B項(xiàng)。2C解析：推理判斷題。根據(jù)第三段提到他被人收養(yǎng)，在上學(xué)之前一直在干活，沒(méi)有機(jī)會(huì)外出和玩耍，更不用說(shuō)與人交朋友了，這里講述了他為什么沒(méi)有朋友的原因，故選C項(xiàng)。3D解析：細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段提到I had never before been acquainted with prejudice of any kind.Here was one characteristic of a human being who through no fault of his own carried a label that prevented him from even having friends as a child.His potential was also being ignored by the teacher.可知“我”從未意識(shí)到任何形式的偏見(jiàn)，正是這種人類的特性讓他沒(méi)有朋友，他的潛力，可能也會(huì)被忽視，故選D項(xiàng)。4A解析：細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)最后一段提到我們不花費(fèi)時(shí)間去了解那些人，去發(fā)現(xiàn)他們的潛力，因?yàn)槲覀儗?duì)于他們的認(rèn)識(shí)被固定在一定的認(rèn)知范圍內(nèi)，故選A項(xiàng)。.閱讀填空2017·云南玉溪一中質(zhì)檢How
