【点评】考查阅读理解。注意先看题目，再看文章，在开始阅读文章之前，先看一遍题目，了解文章的主题和问题，有目的地阅读文章，可以提高阅读效率。6．推理判断题。根据第二段"Onthefirstday,theboyhadhammered37nailsintothefence.Andinthefollowingdays,thereweremoreandmorenailshammeredeachday."可知，第一天，男孩在篱笆上钉了37颗钉子，说明他发了37次脾气；在接下来的日子里，每天都有越来越多的钉子被钉上；据此可以推断，那男孩的脾气有多坏。故选B。7．细节题。根据第三段"Andthedaythenailswerespreadalloverthefence,theboynolongerlostpatienceandlosthistemperaseasilyasbefore.Herantohisfatherhappilyandtoldhimaboutit."可知，钉子铺满篱笆的那天，男孩不再像以前那样容易失去耐心和发脾气了，于是他高兴地跑去告诉父亲这件事。故选C。8．词义猜测题。根据最后一段"Ifyouhurtsomeonewithaknife,nomatterhowmanytimesyousaysorry,evenifthewoundcanbehealed,thescarwillalwaysbethere."可知，如果你用刀伤害了别人，不管你说多少次对不起，即使伤口可以愈合，伤疤也会一直在那里，言语的伤害与真正伤害的痛苦一样，无法弥补的；据此可知，划线单词"irreparable"意为"不可弥补的"。故选A。9．推理判断题。根据第一段"Oneday,hisfathergavehimabagofnailsandtoldhimthateverytimehelosthistemper,hewouldhammeranailintothebackyardfence."和第三段"Thefathernoddedandtoldhimthatfromthenon,wheneverhewantedtolosehistemperbutsuccessfullycontrolledit,hewouldpulloutanail."可知，父亲为了让儿子改掉坏脾气，通过往篱笆上钉钉子和拔钉子的方式，告诉儿子一个道理，由此可见父亲是聪明的；再根据最后一段"Timepasseddaybyday,andfinallytheboytoldhisfatherthathehadfinallypulledoutallthenails."可知，父亲为了让儿子改掉坏脾气，让儿子先去钉钉子，然后拔钉子，这是一个较长的过程，说明父亲很有耐心，方法很得当。故选D。10．最佳标题题。综合全文可知，本文讲述了一个男孩脾气很大，他经常为不重要的事情发脾气；他父亲告诉他每生一次气就往篱笆上钉一颗钉子；后来父亲又告诉他每控制住脾气就可以拔掉一根钉子，最后男孩将篱笆上的钉子全部拔掉了，最终父亲通过让儿子在篱笆上钉钉子以及后来的拔钉子的方式，儿子最终改掉了爱发脾气的坏习惯；选项C"钉子和篱笆"适合作为文章的标题。故选C。【答案】11．D12．A13．C14．B15．C【解析】【分析】文章介绍了保护眼睛的各种方法，包括戴眼镜、远离屏幕、吃健康食物、改掉不良习惯、改善空气质量以及定期看眼科医生。

【点评】考查阅读选择。注意对篇章的把握和对细节信息的识别判断，答题时注意紧扣问题中的关键词，在文章中寻找答案。11．主旨大意题。根据"Butwhatcanwedotoprotectandcareforoureyes?Asitturnsout,quitealot."及全文可知，本文主要介绍了保护眼睛的方法，属于健康类文章。故选D。12．篇章结构题。通读全文可知，第一段引出主题"保护眼睛的方法"；第二段到第七段分别具体介绍保护眼睛的方法。因此文章是总分结构。故选A。13．细节题。根据"First,stopsmoking.Smokingisterrible.Itisn'tjustbadforourlungs!Itcanharmoureyes,too!"可知，作者提及到吸烟是因为它对我们的眼睛有害。故选C。14．细节题。根据"Wearglasses.Wheninthesun,weshouldwearsunglassestoprotectoureyesfromultraviolet(紫外线的)light."、"Eatrightfoods."、"Seeaneyedoctorforacheckup."可知，文章提到了戴太阳镜、吃正确的食物以及看眼科医生，B图片未提及。故选B。15．细节题。根据"Repairtheair.Indoorheatingandairconditioningcandryoutoureyes.Outdoorcoldandwindcanbedrying,too."可知，室内暖气和空调会使我们的眼睛干燥。室外的寒冷和风也会使人干燥。因此空气也对我们的眼睛有害。故选C。【答案】16．D；17．B；18．E；19．A；20．C【解析】【分析】文章讨论了是否应该在晚上将猫留在室内的问题，正反两方都给出了自己的观点和理由。正方认为猫会捕杀太多鸟类，应该被留在室内以保护野生动物；反方则认为猫是猎手，应该让它们自由行动，可以采取其他方法来防止它们捕捉鸟类。
