2015高考英语(四川专用)二轮复习 第4部分 阅读理解解答技巧-专题2

Ⅰ.体验高考

(2014·福建)It was Mother's Day morning last year and I was doing shopping

at our local supermarket with my five-year-old son，Tenyson.As we were leaving，we found that only minutes earlier an elderly woman had fallen over at the entrance

and had hit her head on the concrete.Her husband was with her，but there was blood

everywhere and the woman was embarrassed and clearly in shock.

Walking towards the scene，Tenyson became very upset about what had

happened to the couple.He said to me，“Mum，it's not much fun falling over in

front of everyone.”

At the front of the supermarket，a charity(慈善) group had set up a stand

selling cooked sausages and flowers to raise funds.Tenyson suggested that we

should buy the lady a flower.“It will make her feel better，”he said.I was amazed

that he'd come up with this sweet idea.So we went over to the flower seller and

asked her if we could buy a flower for the lady to cheer her up.“Just take it，”she

replied.“I can't take your money for such a wonderful gesture.”

By now paramedics(急救人员)had arrived，and were attending to the injured

woman.As we walked up to her，my son became intimidated by all the blood and

medical equipment.He said he was just too scared to go up to her.

Instead I gave the flower to the woman's husband and told him，“My son was

very upset for your wife and wanted to give her this flower to make her feel better.”

At that，the old man started crying and said，“Thank you so much，you have

a wonderful son.Happy Mother's Day to you.”

The man then bent down and gave his wife the flower，telling her who it was

from.Though badly hurt and shaken，the old lady looked up at Tenyson with love in

her eyes and gave him a little smile.

Passage 1

体裁：议论文 话题：如何减压 时间：6分钟

Our children feel stressed out by an educational system that actually uses

stress as an educational technique.It's a constant pressure of homework deadlines，essays and exams.And our children are told at a young age that failing a test means

that they are failures in life.They'll end up nowhere if they don't pass this or that

exam.Our educational system is based on a very Western idea that life is a struggle

and you'd better measure up.It's survival of the fittest.While there is some truth to

this，not as much as people think.

Our ancestors didn't develop a constant stress environment.Back then，stress

came quickly and was over quickly，it wasn't like the stress of modern

education.Stress was originally just a short-term biological response to danger；however，the constant stress of modern education rarely stops.It's long term，at least

ten years and usually more.

Recent research has shown that the neurological(神经系统的)response to

stress is the same response that is found in depression.So，what's the solution? A

number have been proposed，including but not limited to the following.

________.Exercise consumes energy that would otherwise build up in the

stress response and could cause physical and mental problems.

Teach relaxation exercises.Allowing the mind and body to relax cuts off the

stress response and reduces the neurological fatigue，enabling the individual to

recover at least somewhat.

Pay attention to thinking.Training the stressed student to pay attention to his or

her own mind to a point where he or she is sufficiently aware to shut off the stress

response when necessary.
