an通過和Mattie夜晚的散步發(fā)現(xiàn)自己對(duì)Mattie日益增長的情感，因此這些句子是為了表明兩個(gè)人之間的一種和諧和強(qiáng)烈的情感。16.ThedescriptioninthefirstparagraphindicatesthatwhatEthanvaluesmostaboutMattieisher(A)fitnessforfarmlabor.(B)vivaciousyouth.(C)receptivenature.(D)freedomfromworry.題目考點(diǎn)：信息和觀點(diǎn)類答案：C答題思路：考生需掌握文章中兩個(gè)主人公之間的關(guān)系解析：文中的8-14行提到了很多Mattie的品質(zhì)，比如：她很友好(“smiledandwaved”),急迫(“jumpeddownwithherbundles”),隨和(“sheain’tafretter”)以及有活力(“l(fā)ikethelightingofafireonacoldhearth”).但是其中最吸引Ethan卻是她對(duì)周圍世界有著一顆開闊的心，在文中的最后一段有體現(xiàn)，“Shehadaneyetoseeandaneartohear:hecouldshowherthingsandtellherthings,andtastetheblissoffeelingthatallheimpartedleftlongreverberationsandechoeshecouldwakeatwill”(lines15-19).17.Whichchoiceprovidesthebestevidencefortheanswertothepreviousquestion(A)Lines1-6(“Mattie...farm”)(B)Lines6-12(“Hehad...anyhow”)(C)Lines12-14(“Butit...hearth”)(D)Lines15-19(“Shehad...will”)題目考點(diǎn)：信息和觀點(diǎn)類答案：D答題思路：考生需在文中找出支持上一問題答案的最佳支持性證據(jù)。解析：文中的15-19行提到Mattie“hadaneyetoseeandaneartohear:[Ethan]couldshowherthingsandtellherthings,andtastetheblissoffeelingthatallheimpartedleftlongreverberationsandechoeshecouldwakeatwill.”話句話說就是Mattie對(duì)外界的觀點(diǎn)經(jīng)歷是一種接納的心態(tài)，因此最能支持上一問題的答案。18.Theauthorincludesthedescriptionsofthesunset,theclouds,andthehe
