文章从本杰明在六岁时自制画笔作画写起,到后来利用专业工具作画,再到知名画家送给本杰明书籍,都是在讲述本杰明是如何一步步走上艺术之路的,故选C。

D.Benjaminwouldhaverealbrushessoon.

解+析 句意理解题。
由前文可知,本杰明在没有专业画笔之前是用猫的毛制作画笔的。
画线句的字面意思是“猫的命运将会得到改善”。
由该段后文可知,本杰明的表兄送给了他专业的颜料和画笔。
由此可推知D项与画线句的意思相符。

短文第四段提到“HewasamazedatwhatBenjaminhaddonewithhisgift.”,接着下一段又谈到“...MrPenningtongaveBenjaminmaterialsforcreatingoilpaintings.”,由此可知,潘宁顿送给本杰明绘画材料来帮助他发展艺术才能,故选B项。

一、题型解读
记叙文、说明文和议论文中可能会考查句意理解题。
要求考生用合适的语句解释一个具有概括性的句子或格言、谚语。
设问形式常有:
(1)Theunderlinedsentenceinthefirst/second/...paragraphmeans“”.
(2)Whichofthefollowingbestexplainstheunderlinedsentenceinthefirst/second/...paragraph?
二、解题技巧——“意义吻合”定句意
↓
↓
例如:
【真题感悟】中第22题:
第一步:
速读文章,找出文章中与画线句子相关的句子
(1)Beforelong,thecatbegantolookragged(蓬乱的).
(2)Whenhewenthome,hesentBenjaminaboxofpaintandsomebrushes.
第二步:
对比信息句、画线句和选项,确定答案
画线句上一段讲到为了制作画笔本杰明剪猫的毛使猫“破相”,接下来讲到堂兄给他送来了颜料和画笔使猫的命运得到改善,隐含着“本杰明将得到真正的画笔”。
由此可推知D项与画线句的意思相符。
A
