问题 单项选择题

At the time friends visit us in the evening, they often tell us they are in a hurry and look at their watches. It isn’t that our friends are all very busy; it is just that we haven’t got a television. People think that we are very strange. "But what do you do in the evening", they are always asking. The answer is very simple. Both my wife and I have hobbies. We certainly don’t spend our evenings looking at the walls. My wife enjoys cooking and painting and often attends evening classes in foreign languages. This is quite useful as we often go abroad for our holidays. I collect stamps and I’m always busy with my collection. Both of us enjoy listening to the music and playing chess together.
Sometimes there are power cuts and we have no electricity in the house. This does not worry us and we just light candles and carry on with what we were doing before. Our friends, however, are lost—no television! —So they don’t know what to do. On such evenings our house is very full for they all come to us. They all have a good time. Instead of sitting in silence in front of the television, everybody talks and plays games.

The best title for this passage is ______.

A.Why Do We Need a Television
B.Candle! But No Electricity!
C.Different Friends, Different Hobbies.
D.We Go Without Televisions

答案

参考答案:D

解析: 这篇文章主要是讲“我们”一家在不看电视的情况下是如何度过的。故选D。

问答题

阅读下列材料:
材料
1989年,9岁的金晶因恶性肿瘤接受了截肢手术。2001年,她成为中国第一批轮椅击剑运动员,多次代表中国参加重大国际比赛,并取得了优异成绩。2007年,金晶光荣当选北京奥运会境外火炬手。
法国当地时间2008年4月7日中午,北京奥运火炬传递在法国巴黎著名的埃菲尔铁塔开始环球传递第五站的活动。当跑第三棒的金晶一脸微笑出现在塞纳河边的时候,她自信的微笑引起在场所有媒体和中国人的关注。令人意想不到的是,极少数企图干扰北京奥运火炬传递的无耻的藏独分子,竟毫无人性地把黑手伸向了坐在轮椅上的金晶,试图从她手中抢走火炬。面对突如其来的袭击,坐在轮椅上的金晶毫不畏惧,她低下头转过身,用双手紧紧抱着火炬,用上身紧紧护住火炬。经过几次冲击,一名“藏独”分子伺机扑到金晶身上,一边拉扯她的胳膊,一边殴打她,试图拽走她手中的火炬。但“藏独”分子怎么也没有想到,一个残疾女孩会有如此巨大的力量,金晶下巴被划破了,却始终死死抱住火炬不放。这一影像画面播放后,海内外华人无不为之感动和激愤,人们把她誉为“圣火守护者”。
汶川发生大地震后,金晶在第一时间给灾区人民送上了真挚的祝福,传递给他们坚强的信念。她到新单位——上海市普陀区市政工程管理署上班,做的第一件事就是参加单位的捐款活动。在她的带动下,市政署掀起了一次又一次捐款捐物的热潮。灾区有伤员陆续来沪治疗,金晶经常到医院看望他们,激励他们以乐观的精神战胜灾难。
上海市举办迎世博600天行动期间,她加入普陀区建设系统迎世博志愿者服务队,倡议和带领志愿者们投入到宣传世博知识和奉献世博、服务世博整治市容环境的各项活动中。
结合案例回答问题:
(1)金晶的经历启示我们如何去面对生活中的逆境?
(2)结合金晶高尚的爱国主义情操以及投身于社会奉献的精神,谈谈你对人生自我价值与社会价值关系的看法。
