A
Pete Sparks was a sensitive （敏感的）boy。

So sensitive that even his hair was ticklish （怕痒的）. You only had to touch his hair a little bit and he would start laughing。

When this ticklish laughter started, no one could make him stop.
Pete tried everything to control his ticklishness，but nothing worked. So he began to feel sad for being different.
One day in the street, he met a special clown. The clown was very old and could hardly walk，but when he saw Pete in tears，he went to cheer him up。

It didn’t take long to make Pete laugh。

Later Pete told him about his ticklish problem，and he asked the clown how such an old man could carry on being a clown。

“I have no one to take my place,” said the clown。

“I have a very serious job to do." Pete looked at him, surprised。

“Come, I'll show you,” said the clown。

So the clown took Pete to many hospitals full of children who were sick. As soon as they saw the clown, their faces changed completely and lit up with a smile。

Their short while spent
with the clown changed everything for them. That day was even more special，because in every show Pete’s laughter would end up with the kids lying on the floor，dying with laughter. When the visit came to an end, the old clown said to Pete，“Now do you see why I can’t retire (退休)，even at my age？”
That was how Pete became a clown, and took the special old man's place. From that day on, the fact that Pete was different actually made him happy, thanks to his special gift (天赋)。

1. Pete wanted to change because he wanted to _____.
A. make a difference
B。

just be a normal boy
C。

make everyone happy
D. just be a special clown

treat his ticklishness

know whether Pete had told a lie

Reporter：Why did you start this new website for Alcott Middle School?
Sarah: Three months ago, my mom was complaining about how she never hears about the days our school ends early until after the fact. She works late and sometimes she has to ask our neighbor at the last minute to pick me up after school. It happened several times, and she was frustrated that there wasn’t better notification (通知）from the school。

Reporter：Didn’t your school already have a website with that information？
Sarah: We had a website。

But there wasn’t much information on it，and nobody was in charge of keeping it up to date (包含最新信息的). I asked my teacher if our class could update the school calendar. That seemed pretty easy。

Reporter：Was it？
Sarah: Yeah, and it was kind of fun. So then we asked the principal (校长) if we could redo the whole site。

He said okay，so we went to work。

We discovered websites that taught us how to make our site look better and added more hot links that people could click to get more information about a subject. We posted photos from basketball games. Our class even started a blog about what's going on at school. Then we persuaded the teachers to create their own pages。

Reporter：So what’s next？
Sarah：A few friends and I started a small Web design business. We're asking other schools if they’ll employ （雇用）us to set up a site like the one we created.
Reporter: Wow! That's pretty enterprising (有事业心的) for a 13—year-old。

Sarah：I guess so. But it doesn’t seem like work when you’re doing something you enjoy.

【名师点睛】
做好细节理解题的几点建议：
细节理解题属直接解答性问题，是阅读理解题中最简单的一种，多数属中低难度的题。

但高考所占的比例大,应特别引起注意.事实和细节题的命题特点是：对文章或某一段落中的一些特定细节或文章重要事实的理解,一般包括直接理解题和语义转化题.直接理解题能在原文直接找到答案，而语义转化题则需要将题目信息与原文信息加工或整理后才能得出结论。

做细节理解题具体方法与步骤如下：
①略读材料,大概了解原文,掌握中心或主旨；
②按文章的体裁，作者写作的组织模式及有关的信息词。

如for example，first, second…等预测应该到何处寻找自己所需要的事实；

National Potato Day was back on Friday 23rd August 2013。

Along with BordBia (Irish Food Board) and many other potato growers in Ireland, Keogh’s Farm brought you a day that was all about potatoes and showing love for our national vegetable。

Keogh’s invited the public to Spud Fest, which took place on Dublin’s South King Street from 12 pm to 4 pm. This festival brought the farm to the city with potato performers，face painters, balloon modeling, music，tastings and plenty of other festival fun to celebrate the most delicious day of the year。

There were lots of potatoes，of course。

Keogh’s along with the support of BordBia called on everyone to enjoy at least one potato on National Potato Day. Potatoes are naturally
low in fat，a great source of vitamins and minerals and are a great way to support local Irish homegrown produce and businesses.
Tom Keogh，General Manager of Keogh’s Farm said，“We can’t believe we were getting ready for our third year of National Potato Day。

When we dreamt the idea up in 2011, we had no idea it would attract so many people。

Since the first National Potato Day we have received nothing but interest in potatoes at home and all over the world。

“Ireland is now recognized as one of the finest producers of top quality vegetables，with the potato leading the field. We are happy that BordBia have joined us this year to bring all our fellow potato producers together and join forces to promote (提升) the enjoyment of the potato。

We are hoping National Potato Day is a day to encourage everyone to love potatoes！"
8. According to the text, Spud Fest _____.
A。

was open to everyone
B。

lasted about five hours
C. sold different vegetables
D. was held in the countryside
9. What did Tom Keogh think of the first National Potato Day？
A. It was world-famous。

B. It was rather terrible.
C。

It was very worthless。

D。

It was quite successful。

10。

The text is mainly to introduce _____。

A. a popular vegetable
B。

a well-known capital
C. an interesting festival
D。

a famous potato grower
【答案】8. A 9。

D 10. C
【解析】文章大意：本文主要讲述了国际土豆节的由来，及其创建的意义和节日主要内容，并且说明了这个节日的发展前景。

8。

细节理解题；根据：Keogh's invited the public to Spud Fest可知Spud Fest对每个人都开放，故选A。

9。

细节理解题，根据：When we dreamt the idea up in 2011, we had no idea it would attract so many people。

Since the first National Potato Day we have received nothing but interest in potatoes at home and all over the world。

可知第一届国际土豆节吸引了很多人，取得了成功，故选D。

10. 主旨大意题,根据全文，第一段讲了国际土豆节在2013年的八月23号要回归了，Keogh的农场将为你带来一天，全是关于土豆并且为你展示对国家蔬菜的喜爱,第二，三段讲述了土豆节的主要内容并且讲述了土豆的营养价值，最后一段讲述了,今年国际土豆节爱尔兰食物局的加入将把土豆生产商聚集在一起，提升人们对土豆的喜爱，由此可知，全文主要讲述了国际土豆节，故选C。

【名师点睛】对于事实细节题，剖析一下不难看出,事实细节的内容不会单独出现，它总会与前前后后的段落内容相呼应。

考生只要抓住整体大纲，看懂主题,利用内容间的因果关系,通过时间空间的关系转换，并对细节进行深入的剖析了理解，确定主题，将零碎
的细节组成一个有机整体，就能深刻理解材料的内容，从而轻松解决问题。

例如2。

What did Tom Keogh think of the first National Potato Day？
A. It was world—famous。

B。

It was rather terrible.
C。

It was very worthless.
D。

It was quite successful。

细节理解题一般需要通读全文后，准确把握文章框架，然后根据具体问题：Tom Keogh是怎样认为第一届国际土豆节的，锁定到第四段中Tom Keogh说的：“When we dreamed the idea up in 2011，we had no idea it would attract so many people. Since the first National Potato Day we have received nothing but interest in potatoes at home and all over the world.”句意：当我们在2011年的时候想到这个创意的时候，我们没有想到这个会吸引如此多的人,自从第一届国际土豆节以来，国内乃至全世界都对土豆产生了兴趣,由此可见,Tom Keogh认为第一届国际土豆节取得了成功,故选D。

D
More than 30，000 people went to the White House on Monday for the 136th Easter Egg Roll (复活节滚彩蛋）。

President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama held the event by inviting thousands of kids to color and look for eggs。

The theme of the day was “Hop Into Healthy, Swing Into Shape。

" It was part of the First Lady's “Let’s Move！" program to reduce obesity rates (肥胖率）among American kids. Mrs. Obama spoke to young reporters about her goal to get children
to eat right and keep moving.
“We are working to make sure that kids born to day grow up healthy, learn how to have balanced meals，and get more physical activity into their lives," she said。

Mrs. Obama said she wants children across the nation to understand that “exercise isn't just hard work, it’s play。

If you’re running around with your dog，you're getting exercise. If you walk up the stairs, that’s exercise. But if you’re sitting in front of the TV or on a computer game, you’re not exercising.”
The First Lady said that for kids who have balanced meals most of the time, having a special snack，like chocolate, will not hurt. “And if you are active，you can splurge (挥霍）a little more," she said。

Mrs. Obama’s favorite “splurge food” is French fries。

But she balances her splurging by exercising almost every day. She loves to play tennis and she practices yoga。

“A lot of kids look up to athletes, and I think it’s important for athletes to share their good habits，” Mrs. Obama said。

“Kids aren’t just going to wake up and be LeBron James. He’s practicing and eating right and working out and training. Our athletes can be really good messengers to kids who look up to them —they can say to kids, ‘If you really want to be like me，then you really do need to eat your vegetables.’”
11. The purpose of the “Let’s Move！” program is to _____。

A. help kids keep healthy

Obama’s opinion, exercise _____.

13. “Splurge food" is allowed to be eaten when _____。

B。

It is very easy to form good habits.

Athletes can set a good example for kids。

D。

Kids like the messages the athletes give them.

I saw an accident happened on my way to home this afternoon. A girl was crossing the street on a zebra crossing while a young man drove a motorbike towards her。

The young man saw the girl and tried to stop,
and he drove too fast to stop. He hit the girl and fell off her motorbike. The girl was badly hurt and couldn't move. The young man didn't know how to do。

I ran to a phone box nearby and dialed 110。

Soon the police reached。

They sent her hospital at once. One of the policeman talked to the young man and wrote something down while was talking。

I think it is very dangerous to drive very fast.
