Unit 1 Friendship

高考题

I.阅读理解

（2016·新课标卷III，阅读理解B）On one of her trips to New York several years

ago, Eudora Welty decided to take a couple of New York friends out to dinner. They

settled in at a comfortable East Side cafe and within minutes, another customer was

approaching their table.

＂Hey, aren’t you from Mississippi?＂ the elegant, white-haired writer

remembered being asked by the stranger. ＂I’m from Mississippi too.＂

Without a second thought, the woman joined the Welty party. When her dinner

partner showed up, she also pulled up a chair.

＂They began telling me all the news of Mississippi,＂ Welty said. ＂I didn’t

know what my New York friends were thinking.＂

Taxis on a rainy New York night are rarer than sunshine. By the time the group

got up to leave, it was pouring outside. Welty’s new friends immediately sent a

waiter to find a cab. Heading back downtown toward her hotel, her big-city friends

were amazed at the turn of events that had changed their Big Apple dinner into a

Mississippi.

＂My friends said: ‘Now we believe your stories,’＂ Welty added. ＂And I said:

‘Now you know. These are the people that make me write them.’＂

Sitting on a sofa in her room, Welty, a slim figure in a simple gray dress, looked

pleased with this explanation.

＂I don’t make them up,＂ she said of the characters in her fiction these last

50 or so years. ＂I don’t have to.＂

Beauticians, bartenders, piano players and people with purple hats, Welty’s

people come from afternoons spent visiting with old friends, from walks through the

streets of her native Jackson, Miss., from conversations overheard on a bus. It

annoys Welty that, at 78, her left ear has now given out. Sometimes, sitting on a

bus or a train, she hears only a fragment(片段) of a particularly interesting story. 5.What happened when Welty was with her friends at the cafe?

A. Two strangers joined her.

B. Her childhood friends came in.

C. A heavy rain ruined the dinner.

D. Some people held a party there.

6. The underlined word ＂them＂ in Paragraph 6 refers to Welty’s.

A. readers B. parties C. friends D. stories

7. What can we learn about the characters in Welty’s fiction?

A. They live in big cities.

B. They are mostly women.

C. They come from real life.

D. They are pleasure seekers.

【文章大意】本文介绍了美国著名女作家Eudora在纽约通过晚餐结交了新朋友，并成为了他的写作素材。

5. A 【解析】考查细节理解。第三段中的 ＂the woman＂指的是第二段中的那个陌生人,根据第三段中的＂When her dinner partner showed up, she also pulled up a

chair＂可知,陌生女子的晚餐伙伴也加入了她们的行列中,故有两个陌生人加入到了Welty和朋友的晚餐中。

6.D 【解析】考查代词指代。画线词所在句＂These are the people that make me write

them＂的主语These指的就是像那两位陌生人那样的人,换言之,这些新朋友就成了Welty笔下的写作素材,这些人就是让她写小说的人,故them指的是＂小说＂。
