學(xué)的學(xué)生，他們紛紛來(lái)到蘇格蘭首府表演。故選B項(xiàng)。

語(yǔ)篇解讀:本文為記敘文。作者小時(shí)候喜歡寫(xiě)日記,每天忙著把“現(xiàn)在”記錄在本子上。但她13歲時(shí)的

一次經(jīng)歷使她意識(shí)到，我們應(yīng)該學(xué)會(huì)享受而不是記錄“現(xiàn)在”，“活著不是為了記憶”。

答案及剖析：LD事實(shí)細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)第一段內(nèi)容，尤其是最后一句“畢竟，積累記憶不就是保存過(guò)去的

一種方式嗎？”可知選Do

2.B事實(shí)細(xì)節(jié)題。第二、三段描述了作者13歲時(shí)的經(jīng)歷,當(dāng)時(shí)作者還是熱衷于為了將來(lái)的回憶而記錄

現(xiàn)在，但晚匕當(dāng)她發(fā)現(xiàn)山谷的美麗時(shí)突然明白，“我寫(xiě)的任何東西都比不上此時(shí)讓自己好好感受山谷的美麗”,

從此作者的態(tài)度發(fā)生了轉(zhuǎn)變。

3.B事實(shí)細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)第四段可知,作者現(xiàn)在只把自己特別的想法或情感寫(xiě)在日記中，故B項(xiàng)正確。

4.A推理判斷題。最后一段作者說(shuō)，“也許我會(huì)忘了一些事實(shí)，但至少，這些經(jīng)歷將永遠(yuǎn)在我的心中”。

這就是作者對(duì)生活的感悟:把握現(xiàn)在,感受今天,生活重在感受而不是為了回憶而記錄。

語(yǔ)篇解讀:本文是一篇記敘文。那天早上對(duì)作者來(lái)說(shuō)真是一個(gè)災(zāi)難,牙痛，又和朋友發(fā)生爭(zhēng)執(zhí)。但是在牙

醫(yī)診所的經(jīng)歷使作者轉(zhuǎn)變了心情，認(rèn)識(shí)到做任何事情都要學(xué)會(huì)換位思考,要站在對(duì)方的立場(chǎng)上考慮問(wèn)題。

答案及剖析：LD推理判斷題。由第一段第一、二句可知,作者那天早上牙痛,又和朋友發(fā)生爭(zhēng)吵,因此

可推知作者很心煩。

2.A細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由第三段內(nèi)容可知，作者覺(jué)得看這個(gè)牙醫(yī)都不用等，有可能是因?yàn)樗夹g(shù)不好，沒(méi)有

人去看病，這使作者對(duì)這位牙醫(yī)產(chǎn)生了懷疑。故A項(xiàng)正確。

3.B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由倒數(shù)第二段第二、三句"SuddenlyIsmiled.Therewasabeautifulpicture,right

whereIcouldenjoyit:ontheceiling.w可知，作者看到天花板上有幅畫(huà)時(shí)便笑了。

4.C推理判斷題。由倒數(shù)第二段最后一句以及第一段第三句可知,作者認(rèn)識(shí)到了朋友所說(shuō)的話(huà)是有道

理的，自己應(yīng)該學(xué)會(huì)站在別人的角度去思考問(wèn)題。A項(xiàng)意為“趁熱打鐵”；B項(xiàng)意為“為某人的朋友說(shuō)好話(huà)”；C

項(xiàng)意為“換位思考”；D項(xiàng)意為“患難朋友才是真正的朋友”。故C項(xiàng)正確。

【疑難詞匯解讀】

1.inone*splace處于某人的境況

Iwouldn*tliketobeinyourplace.

我可不想處丁?你的境地。

2.fitsb.in找到時(shí)間見(jiàn)某人
