A young woman turns around and around quickly, and jumps high. In the background, a young girl reads a rejection (拒绝) letter from a ballet school. You have the wrong body for ballet, 'it says,' and at thirteen, you are too old. This was one of the most popular advertisements (⼴告) of 2014 and it describes American ballet Theatre's principal (主要的) dancer Misty Copeland.
This was not a real letter. But Copeland says it is very similar to letters from her childhood. While many dancers start at the age of three. Copeland only began to study ballet in 1995 as a thirteen-year-old. People often told her that she was too old, or that she didn't have the perfect body type (She is only 157 cm tall). Her family moved a lot, and it was sometimes difficult for her to attend ballet classes. But Copeland loved dancing and did not want to give up. She stayed with her ballet teacher during the week and spent time with her family only at the weekend. This was a difficult life, but she worked hard and won her first national competition when she was fourteen years old. Copeland joined the American Ballet Theatre in 2000 and performed in many ballets over the next few years. In 2007, she became a solo (单独的) performer, and in 2015 she became its principal dancer.
Copeland is now a dancer, author and Broadway performer. She also stars in the 2015 film A Ballerina's Tale. So what's next? According to Copeland, anything is possible: "My career (职业) really is just now beginning.'
37. How old was Copeland when she became the principal dancer?
A. 13
B. 14
C. 25
D. 33
38. Why was it difficult for Copeland to attend ballet classes?
A. Because her family moved a lot.
B. Because she was not a good dancer.
C. Because she had no invitation letter.
D. Because she had the wrong body type.
39. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Copeland became successful because of the advertisement.
B. Copeland had to spend a lot of time away from her parents.
C. Copeland won her first national competition as a solo performer.
D. Copeland has ended up her career as an actress on Broadway.
40. What's the writer’s opinion of Copeland?
A. Copeland sets an example who never gives up.
B. Copeland was too old to start ballet at thirteen.
C. Copeland has made her achievements by accident.
D. Copeland was lucky to get support from the ballet school.
【答案】37. D 38. A 39. B 40. A
【解析】试题分析：这是⼀篇记叙⽂，讲述了曾经因为年龄太⼤被舞蹈学校拒绝的科普兰凭借⾃⼰的努⼒成为了⼀名舞蹈家、作家和百⽼汇演员。

as an actress on Broadway.科普兰结束了她在百⽼汇的⼥演员⽣涯。

根据She stayed with her ballet teacher during the week and spent time with her family only at the weekend.，可知她不得不花很多时间离开⽗母，故选B。

40. 题意：作者对Copeland的看法是什么？考查细节理解题。

A. Copeland sets an example who never gives up.科普兰树⽴了⼀个永不放弃的榜样。

C. Copeland has made her achievements by accident.科普兰意外地取得了成就。

点睛：对于阅读理解题，⾸先要粗读⽂章了解⼤意，其次通过细读，理解全⽂。

在粗读的基础上，仔细阅读题后所给的题⽬，根据题⽬要求，再有重点地返回来仔细阅读。

在阅读理解的题⽬中，所设问题主要有以下⼏种⽅式：找主题或概括⽂章的中⼼思想、就⽂中的具体事实和情节进⾏提问、根据⽂章的表层意思进⾏深层次的推理判断等，在细读时，要根据设问的⽅式，进⾏有侧重地阅读。

1、概括⽂章中⼼思想。

1)⽂⾸呈现主题句。

2)⽂尾出现主题句。

3)⾸尾呼应展现主题。

4)⽂中表述主题。

前⾯提出问题，⽂中的主题由随之陈述的细节或合乎逻辑的引申在⽂中导出，⽽后再做进⼀步的解释。

5)⽂章没有主题句。

在这种情况下，考⽣要把所有的细节综合起来。

进⾏逻辑推理，概括归纳出⽂章的主题句。

2.掌握⽂章的具体事实和重要情节。

在考题中，经常会见到就⽂章中某⼀具体事实和重要情节进⾏测试的题⽬。

这就要求考⽣在阅读时要注意辨认和记忆具体事实，重要情节，事物的起因、过程、结果及发⽣的地点、时间等，这些都有可能作为测试点。

还有⼀些测试题，要求考⽣在理解的基础上，通过⾃⼰的思维将理解的内容系统化，⽐如计算、排序等题型。

Many people say dolphins are intelligent. They seem to be able to think, understand and learn things quickly. But are they as smart as humans, or are they more like cats and dogs? Dolphins use their brains quite differently from the way humans do. But scientists say dolphins and humans are very similar in some ways. How?
Like humans, every dolphin has its own "name". The name is a special whistle (哨声). Each dolphin chooses a
specific (特有的) whistle for itself, usually by its first birthday Dolphins are like people in other ways, too. They "talk" to each other about a lot of things-such as their age, their feelings, and finding food. They also use a system of sounds and body language to communicate. Understanding dolphin conversation is not easy for humans. No one "speaks dolphin" yet, but some scientists are trying to learn.
Dolphins are also social animals. They live in groups called pods, and they often join others from different pods to play games and have fun--just like people. Scientists believe playing together is something only intelligent animals do.
Dolphins and humans are similar in another way: both species make plans for getting things they want. In the seas of southern Brazil, for example, dolphins use an intelligent plan to get food. When there are fish near a boat, dolphins signal (发信号) to the fishermen to put their nets in the water. Using this method, the men can catch a lot of fish. Why do dolphins help the men? There is an advantage for them they get to eat some of the fish that escape (逃脱) from the net.
