　　Module 4

　　Ⅰ.阅读理解

　　(2015·山西省高三第三次四校联考)

　　Sure, it's good to get along with your teacher because it makes that time you spend in the classroom more pleasant. And yes, it's good to get along with your teacher because, in general, it's smart to learn how to relate to the different types of people you'll meet throughout your life.

　　But really, there's one super－important reason why you should get along with your teacher. Kids who get along with their teachers not only learn more, but they're more comfortable asking questions and getting extra help. This makes it easier to understand new material and do your best on tests. When you have this kind of relationship with a teacher, he or she can be someone to turn to with problems, such as problems with learning or school issues, such as bullying.

　　As a kid in elementary or middle school, you're at a wonderful stage in your life. You're able to take in lots of new and exciting information. Apart from that, you're able to think about all this information in new ways. Your teacher knows that, and in most cases, he or she is thrilled to be the person who's giving you all that material and helping you put it together. Remember, teachers are people, too, and they feel great if you're open to what they're teaching you. That's why they wanted to be teachers in the first place to teach!

　　Some kids may be able to learn in any situation, whether they like the teacher or not. But most kids are sensitive to the way they get along with the teacher, and if things aren't going well, they won't learn as well and won't enjoy being in class.

　　语篇解读：文章讲述的是与老师保持良好关系的重要性。与老师友好相处，可以愉快地度过课堂时光，可以更多的了解不同类型的人，可以向他们请求帮助等。

　　2．What's the writer's attitude towards getting along with teachers?

　　A．Doubtful. B．Objective.

　　C．Uncaring. D．Favorable.

　　B．Kids are bullied while communicating with others in schools.

　　C．Kids will leave the class when not doing quite well with their teachers.

　　答案：C　细节理解题。 根据文章最后一句“But most kids are sensitive to the way they get along with the teacher, and if things aren't going well, they won't learn as well and won't enjoy being in class.”当孩子和老师的关系处不好时，他们不愿呆在教室了。

　　4．The passage is most probably taken from ________.

　　A．children's literature B．an education magazine

And I__17__he had been doing what music teachers always stress：__18__the music and pretend the others aren't there.

　　语篇解读：我从小学二年级的时候就对每年一次钢琴独奏会感到害怕，但是在父亲所谓的“树立自信心及朝着目标而努力”的督促之下，我一次也没有漏过。多年后，当68岁的父亲坐在钢琴前，成功的完成了他的第一次钢琴独奏会的时候，他用行动向我诠释了勇气和意志。

　　1．A.reflectedB．explained

　　C．meant D．proved

　　答案：C　本句解释我不喜欢每年一次的钢琴独奏会的原因，是因为独奏会意味着要练习枯燥无味的曲子，并且还要在陌生人面前表演。mean“意味着”，符合语境。reflect“反映”；explain“解释”； prove“证明”。

　　2．A.would B．could

　　C．might D．should

　　答案：A　根据下一句中的“And each year he'd shake his head...”可知，此处表示每一年我都会向父亲提出这样的请求。would 可以表示“过去经常干某事”。

　　D．something

　　答案：D　每一次当我提出要开溜的时候，父亲总是说一些关于树立自信心的话。

　　C．strength D．disappointment

　　答案：B　根据上文语境可知，我小的时候每年都要在父亲的督促之下不得不参加钢琴独奏会，而现在父亲正在参加他的第一次钢琴独奏会，因为紧张而汗湿衣衫，所以我感到“幸灾乐祸”。satisfaction“满意”，符合语境。trouble“麻烦”；strength“力量；力气”；disappointment“失望”。

　　8．A.miss B．afford

　　C．select D．understand

　　答案：B　根据but his family was poor 可知，尽管父亲从小就渴望学习音乐，但是因为家里太穷了，根本负担不起学习的费用。afford“担负得起；买得起”，常与can 或could连用。miss“错过”； select“挑选”；understand“理解”。

　　9．A.as B．once

　　D．spoilt

　　答案：C　考查动词词义辨析。educate“教育”； protect“保护”； stick“陷(入)；困(于)”；spoil“惯坏；宠坏”。句意为：尽管他还是和过去一个老样子，但是他并没有陷在那儿(停滞不前)。be rooted in意为“根深蒂固的”。

　　19．A.ashamed B．aware
