【语篇解读】　主题：

人与自我（生活与学习）；话题：

增强自信。

本文是一篇记叙文。

文章讲述了小学教师Whaley通过组织学生演讲来帮助学生增强自信的教学实践。

4．WhatmadeChrisnervous?

A．Tellingastory.

B．Makingaspeech.

C．Takingatest.

D．Answeringaquestion.

B　[细节理解题。

根据题干中的关键词nervous可定位到第二段第一句，然后应到前文中找使他紧张的因素。

根据第一段中的“...todayisspeechday，andrightnowit'sChrisPalaez'sturn.”和“...heseemslikethekindofkidwhowouldenjoypublicspeaking.”可知，今天是演讲日，现在轮到了Chris，虽然他看起来像那种喜欢在公共场合讲话的孩子，但是他很紧张。

故选B。

]

5．Whatdoestheunderlinedword“stumbles”inParagraph2referto?

A．Improperpauses.B．Badmanners.

C．Spellingmistakes.D．Sillyjokes.

A　[词义猜测题。

根据第二段中的“youshould...should...”以及“...Votefor...me...”这样的语句特点可知，Chris的演讲不流畅，也就是说有不适当的停顿。

这是他表现不好的地方，与画线词后的句意“他完成得非常好”构成转折关系，与短语exceptfor的语意相呼应。

注意：

高考阅读中的熟词生义现象非常关键，例如，如果能够注意到第二段第三句中的trips一词在此语境中的特殊意义（意为“绊倒”）则有助于快速解答此题。

故选A。

A　[推理判断题。

根据倒数第二段中的“Whaleysaystheprojectisaboutmorethanjustlearningtoreadandspeakinpublic.Hewantsthesekidstolearntoboastaboutthemselves.”可知，Whaley创办这个项目的目的不仅仅是让学生学会阅读和在公共场合演讲，他还希望学生学会自夸。

A项意为“帮助学生看到自己的长处”，与原文意思相符。

故选A。

7．WhichofthefollowingbestdescribesWhaleyasateacher?

A．Humorous.B．Ambitious.

C．Caring.D．Demanding.
