Ⅲ.[2011·江苏卷] 阅读理解
We know the famous ones—the Thomas Edisons and the Alexander Graham Bells—but what about the less famous inventors？ What about the people who invented the traffic light and the windshield wiper(雨刮器)？Shouldn’t we know who they are？
Joan McLean thinks so. In fact，
McLean，
a professor of physics at Mountain University in Range，
feels so strongly about this matter that she’s developed a course on the topic. In addition to learning “who” invented “what”，
however，
McLean also likes her students to learn the answers to the “why”and“how”questions. According to McLean， “When students learn the answers to these questions，
they are better prepared to recognize opportunities for inventing and more motivated to give inventing a try.”
Her students agree. One young man with a patent for an unbreakable umbrella is walking proof of McLean’s statement.“If I had not heard the story of the windshield wiper’s invention， ”said Tommy Lee，
a senior physics major， “I never would have dreamed of turning my bad experience during a rainstorm into something so constructive.” Lee is currently negotiating to sell his patent to an umbrella producer.
So，
just what is the story behind the windshield wiper？ Well，
Mary Anderson came up with the idea in 1902 after a visit to New York City. The day was cold and stormy， but Anderson still wanted to see the sights，
so she jumped aboard a streetcar. Noticing that the driver was struggling to see through the snow covering the windshield，
she found herself wondering why there couldn’t be a builtin device for cleaning the window. Still wondering about this when she returned home to Birmingham， Alabama. Anderson started drafting out solutions. One of her ideas，
a lever(操作杆) on the inside of a vehicle that would control an arm on the outside，
became the first windshield wiper.
Today we benefit from countless inventions and innovations. It’s hard to imagine driving without Garrett A. Morgan’s traffic light. It’s equally impossible to picture a world without Katherine J. Blodgett’s innovation that makes glass invisible. Can you picture life without clear windows and eyeglasses？
31. By mentioning “traffic light” and “windshield wiper”，
the author indicates that countless inventions are________.
A．beneficial，
because their inventors are famous
B．beneficial，
though their inventors are less famous
C．not useful，
because their inventors are less famous
D．not useful，
though their inventors are famous
32. Professor Joan McLean’s course aims to________.
A．add colour and variety to students’ campus life
B．inform students of the windshield wiper’s invention
C．carry out the requirements by Mountain University
D．prepare students to try their own inventions
33. Tommy Lee’s invention of the unbreakable umbrella was________.
A．not eventually accepted by the umbrella producer
B．inspired by the story behind the windshield wiper
C．due to his dream of being caught in a rainstorm
D．not related to Professor Joan McLean’s lectures
34. Which of the following can best serve as the title of this passage？
A．How to Help Students to Sell Their Inventions to Producers？
B．How to Design a Builtin Device for Cleaning the Window？
C．Shouldn’t We Know Who Invented the Windshield Wiper？
D．Shouldn’t We Develop Invention Courses in Universities？

课时作业(十)
Ⅰ.1.A 从语境看，句子讲述的是过去的事情，因此第一空要用一般过去时；第二空要用形容词delightful作定语修饰things，表示“令人愉快的事情”。
2．A 考查名词辨析。scene情景，景象；view风景，景色；scenery自然风景(不可数)；appearance出现，外表。
3. A leave sb doing 意为“使某人处于某状态”，句中leave与句子主语之间是逻辑上的被动关系，因此用A。
4. B 考查动词用法。consider表示“考虑”时，后面接名词或者动名词作宾语。
5．B 考查动词词义辨析。tell在此处表示“辨别，区别”。
6．D 考查短语辨析。in reality事实上，实际上；in a word总之；at last最后；as a result结果。由题意知D项正确。
7. A 根据句意此处表示“活的兔子”。 live “活的”，只作定语，修饰动物。 alive是表语形容词，表示“活着”，常作表语、补语及后置定语，不能作前置定语。lively意为“活泼的；热烈的”；lovely意为“可爱的”。
8．C 在回答特殊疑问句时经常用到省略的形式，因此此题解题的关键就是要注意省略了什么，根据问题可以看出应是回答：I enjoy…most. enjoy后面的宾语要用动名词形式，因此选C。
9．C 考查动词词义辨析。completely完全地，说明大楼被彻底破坏了，所以选C。
10. C 考查非谓语动词。本句中缺少主语，所以需要用动名词作主语。
.本文记叙了母亲与孩子进行的一次独特交流。利用卡片相互交流感情，交流中母亲了解了孩子的内心世界，也意识到父母对待孩子存在的不足，从而加深了父母与孩子之间的感情。
11．B 根据第二段开头20分钟后“我”上楼时，“我”听到Kevin在洗手间里哭，由此暗示Kevin这时跑上楼。rush up stairs往楼上跑。
12．C 结合后文可以知道当Kevin带着受伤的表情上楼时，作者并没有留意。
13．B 根据第三段倒数第二句话暗示，Kevin和Tommy争吵时感到难过，故“我”上楼听到Kevin在洗手间里哭。
14．A 这位母亲本来想(像往常一样)哄孩子，但突然想到要换种方法和孩子沟通，所以她咬住舌头没把想说的话说出口。
15．C 母亲哄孩子的说法：“好了，别这样宝贝”。
16．D 母亲决定和孩子交谈，所以她敲门问孩子是否想谈谈。
17．A 孩子没有回应，母亲又试一次(敲门试问)。
18．C 下段第一句话：一个小时后，我还坐在洗手间外面，面前堆了两摞卡片，由此说明这里母亲拿来了一摞卡片和孩子进行文字交流。
19．B 母亲劝儿子如果不想说就写便条交流。
20．A 母亲与儿子交流了一个小时，还在继续写卡片交流。still依然，还在。
21．D Kevin在卡片上把他不愉快的心情转变成文字传给母亲。
22．C 母亲和孩子交流投入太深，全然不顾电话铃声和楼下精彩的电视节目。care about在乎。
23．A Kevin在一张卡片上说他受委屈：家里没有人在乎他。
24．B Kevin解释自己在家里不受重视的原因：不是最小的，也不是最大的，也不是最伶俐的。
25．D 参见上一题解析。
26．C Kevin认为父亲也不喜欢自己，他希望另一个叫Kevin的孩子做自己的孩子，因为那个Kevin更擅长棒球。
27．A “而且(母亲)你也从未注意过我”。
28．B 作为母亲，听到孩子说出这样的话，不觉心里一酸，眼泪下来了。
29．D 母亲向孩子解释说：妈妈的确很爱他。但没有常表露出来，向他道歉。
30．A 自从跟Kevin书面交谈之后，这位母亲就从不对家里的孩子心不在焉了。
. 我们了解著名人物及发明，如爱迪生的电灯和留声机，贝尔的电话等，但是又有多少人知道红绿灯和雨刮器的发明者呢？
31. B 细节理解题。根据文章第一段提到的…the less famous inventors…the traffic light and the windshield wiper？可知选项B正确。
32. D 信息理解题。根据文章第二段最后一句“…students learn the answers to these questions, they are better prepared to recognize opportunities for inventing and more motivated to give inventing a try.”可知教授的目的，所以选择D项。
33. B 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“If I had not heard the story of the windshield wiper’s invention…I never would have dreamed of turning my bad experience during a rainstorm into something so constructive.”可知Tommy Lee的发明是在雨刮器故事的启迪下成功的，所以选择B项。
34. C 标题归纳题。纵观全文，特别是第一段指明了文章的主题，即我们应该了解雨刮器和红绿灯背后的发明者的故事，故选C项。
