问题 阅读理解与欣赏

阅读从维熙《思念是人生的彩虹》一文,完成问题。

  ①在冬日里思念起小花萌芽的早春,在春日里思念起十月的枫红,闷热如煮的夏日里,忆起冬日飞舞的雪片,或是在冰河封冻的严冬,突然记起百花争艳的盛夏,都会给人的精神上带来一丝慰藉。如果把春夏秋冬比作人生四季,那么思念是人生四季精神上的彩虹。

  ②思念有个前提:那就是空间和时间上的距离。随着高科技的发展和电子时代的到来,人类逐渐无所不能,阿波罗号宇宙飞船,可以载人登上月球,一台笔记本电脑,任你访问世界名山大川。天与地之间距离浓缩到方寸之间,固然给人类生活带来许多意外的惊喜,但是将其放在感情的天平上去衡量,却也会发现这些现代化的东西:对人类精神上的思念形成了一种撕裂

  ③不久前,友人从美国打来电话说:“你在电脑上安上一个出像设备,我们通话时就可以面对面地看见彼此的形影了。”我说:“别,还是让我留下点想像和思念的空间吧!”之所以这么回答,因为我不想让电子光波破坏了思念的情怀。如果,电脑屏幕上出现了他的肖像,那固然有瞬间面对面的快乐,但是思念与想像之苦与乐,便会随之化为泡影。感情的天平永远在平衡点上,会让人与人之间的感情淡化,更有甚者,会使感情霉变而生菌,继而发生病变。更何况,我刚来探亲不久,朋友们的音容笑貌,还鲜亮地活在我的记忆库中呢!

  ④古代诗词中的“长相思”,来自于“久离别”。余光中一首《乡愁》的诗章,所以那么撕裂肝肠,就是因为“久离别”而后孕生出来的“长相思”。这种乡愁点燃起的思念之火,将是海峡上架起飞虹的力量。不是吗?民族情愫如此,亲情与爱情的真谛,又何尝不是如此?常常见到一些时尚中的人,像蜜蜂巢居那般形影不离,殊不知没有空间没有思念,没有彼此守望的情感田园,感情田园中的绿阴会褪色的,没有精神空间的人生厮守,久而久之是会变质变味的——虽然伊人仍旧,但实质上是无色无味的白开水了。

  ⑤古人说的“大爱无形”与“挚爱无声”,不是空对空地坐而论道,而是实对实的感情界定。记得,l998年中国作家出访宝岛台湾,王安忆在回答读者提问如何面对纷繁的时尚表演时,她的回答是“我向往古典”。此话出口后,立刻获得满堂喝彩声。之所以如此,全然在于时尚中人,太少了曲径通幽之美,什么都像阿拉伯数字中的“l”那么快捷,但却没有了九曲通幽之享受。如果将此延伸到文化领域,快捷的“读图时代”和“娱乐致死”之风,都意味着将中华含蓄而深邃的文化,引向“肥皂剧”那般的精神墓场。

  ⑥当然,电子时代给予我们许许多多前人无法想像的方便,因而我们常为生在这个世纪而庆幸,天上的飞机,地下的地铁,一直到笔记本电脑,给了我们生活“直达车”的快捷。但这些生活载体的飞跃进步,不仅无法取代人间感情的价值定位——正好相反,越是飞船上天,人们更要警觉人类的真情坠地。因为太多的方便和直达,致使将真情的思念与肝肠寸断的牵挂,化为宇宙间之鸟有。看看春运时人头攒动的车站吧,那是思念井喷的绝妙写照,如果人间死了这种思念,还会有这种情致的画面吗?

  ⑦保留一点思念与想像的空间吧!那是作为万物之灵的人,所独有的精神彩虹。(选自《北京青年报》,有改动)

5.对文章内容理解不恰当的两项是(   )(   )

B.思念有时是一种力量,正如余光中的《乡愁》点燃起的思念之火,将是海峡上架起飞虹的力量。

C.作者认为,太多的方便和直达,致使将真情的思念与肝肠寸断的牵挂,化为宇宙间之乌有。可见作者并不赞同高科技的发展和电子时代的到来。

D.在常人眼中,眷运时人头攒动,拥挤不堪。可在作者看来那却是思念井喷的绝妙写照,是富有情致的画面。视角独特,能激起读者强烈的共鸣。

E.从全文看,“保留一点思念与想像的空间”的呼唤,体现出作者坚守情感田园的强烈的精神追求。

答案

1.用比喻的修辞表现思念如同雨后彩虹一般,令人产生美感,在人生历程中给人以精神上的希望和慰藉。

2.(1)“撕裂”在文中有“终止”“割断”之意,形象地写出现代科技给人类精神上的思念带来的冲击和破坏,表达了作者的痛惜之情。

  (2)“古典”与“时尚”相对应,表明王安忆欣赏传统美,表现了一种曲径通幽(含蓄而深邃)之美,表达了对含蓄深邃之美的赞美之情。

3.科技的发展和电子时代的到来与人类感情的丰富不一定成正比(科技越发展越要坚守我们应有的情感价值观);科技越发展我们越要警惕感情的淡漠与丧失。

4.友情;民族情愫(或:民族情愫、亲情与爱情);欣赏美(或:美、什么是美)。

5.AC

The worst earthquake in 40 years shook South Asia on Sunday, starting with horrible waves that swept entire villages into the sea. At least 20,000 people in six countries were killed in the disaster, and millions were left homeless.

The quake shook deep beneath the Indonesian island of Sumatra. It was felt more than 3000 miles away in East Africa, where heavy tides kept fishermen at home and resorts(度假胜地)closed.

It was as if the sea had struck the land. Residents of Sri Lanka, a small island country off the coast of India, ran to the hills to find safety from the tsunami. Many took their radios, televisions, and other valuables with them. The disaster hit Sri Lanka hardest. Of its 20million people, 1 million lost their homes, and 10000 died.

“The water simply raised itself up and huge waves came ashore,” wrote eye-witness(目击者)Peter Thomas from India. “It was moving very fast. The force broke the glass walls of a restaurant on the beach here and damaged hundreds of boats.”

In some places, the tsunami struck with no warning. “The weather was fine with no clouds,” wrote an eye-witness in Indonesia. “Suddenly the seawater just hit the city. In some parts the water was up to chest level.”

A massive(大众的)effort to help the affected countries is already underway. Leaders from around the world have promised to help, and teams of aid workers and doctors are rushing to the sea. “The United States stands ready to offer all the help to those nations most affected.” Said White House spokesman Trent Duffy. Organizations from the Red Cross to the International Monetary Fund have started fund-raising(筹款)drives to make up the costs of rebuilding.
