Question

2．When people think of New York City，most of them probably picture the attractive lifestyles of the rich and famous or think of Broadway，Times Square and other tourist attractions．However，there is another side of New York City．The summer after tenth grade，I went with my group on a mission trip to New York City for a week．
       I had always known that poverty existed in major cities，but I had never seen it to a degree as high as we did there．We worked at several different locations with our small groups．One day，we served at a soup kitchen and what I saw astounded me．I couldn't believe my eyes．We saw people from all walks of life．We met people who came there because they had no job，no home and no money．
       Another day，we volunteered at a homeless shelter．We helped people there do some cleaning and spent time talking to them and listening to their stories．It was incredible to see how thankful they were to us for just spending a couple of hours talking to them．
        Every person we met on that trip had a unique story．Whatever their stories were，there was a common thread we saw in them--hope and thanks．These were people who had nothing and yet they were so hopeful about their futures and they were thanking us．
       My experience during that summer changed my life．I used to picture my future as containing a big house and a lot of money，but now I see my future as helping others．After college，I would really like to work for some sort of global aid organization that deals with the social issues，such as poverty and homelessness．

56．What do most people have in mirtd when thinking of New York city？（No more than 10 words）People/Tney think it has attractive lifestyles and tourist attractions
57．What does the underlined word"astounded"in Paragraph 2 mean？（1 word）Surprised．/Astonished．/Shocked．/Startled．

Answer 1

分析 我去了美國(guó)旅行后才發(fā)現(xiàn)它并不是一個(gè)沒(méi)有貧窮的國(guó)家，很多人也需要幫助，從此我立志為一些全球援助組織工作，處理社會(huì)問(wèn)題，

解答 56．People/Tney think it has attractive lifestyles and tourist attractions．細(xì)節(jié)理解題．由第一段When people think of New York City，most of them probably picture the attractive lifestyles of the rich and famous or think of Broadway，可知，當(dāng)人們想到紐約，他們中的大多數(shù)可能是富人和名人有吸引力的生活方式或百老匯，時(shí)代廣場(chǎng)和其他旅游景點(diǎn)，故填People/Tney think it has attractive lifestyles and tourist attractions．
57．Surprised．/Astonished．/Shocked．/Startled．詞義推斷題．由后文的We met people who came there because they had no job，no home and no money，可知我們遇見(jiàn)的人沒(méi)有工作，沒(méi)有家，沒(méi)有錢(qián)，因此很驚奇，故填Surprised．/Astonished．/Shocked．/Startled
58．They were poor but very hopeful about their futures，and thankful/grateful to the helpers．由第三段It was incredible to see how thankful they were to us for just spending a couple of hours talking to them，可知令人難以置信的是他們感謝我們花幾個(gè)小時(shí)和他們說(shuō)話，故填They were poor but very hopeful about their futures，and thankful/grateful to the helpers．
59．A/A certain/Some global aid organization that deals with the social issues．細(xì)節(jié)理解題．由最后一段After college，I would really like to work for some sort of global aid organization that deals with the social issues，such as poverty and homelessness，大學(xué)之后，我真的很想為一些全球援助組織工作，處理社會(huì)問(wèn)題，如貧困和無(wú)家可歸．故填A(yù)/A certain/Some global aid organization that deals with the social issues．
60．He shows me how important it is to help other people and contribute to society．自由發(fā)揮題．本題詢問(wèn)考生對(duì)作者立志幫助他人的看法，言之有理即可，答案不唯一．

點(diǎn)評(píng) 這篇文章非常簡(jiǎn)單，先看問(wèn)題，再帶著問(wèn)題仔細(xì)閱讀短文，理解了全文內(nèi)容，很容易選出正確答案．
