Question

For many years, I was convinced that my suffering was due to my size. I believed that when the weight disappeared, it would take old wounds, hurts and rejections with it.
Many weight-conscious people also mistakenly believe that changing our bodies will fix everything. Perhaps our worst mistake is believing that being thin equals being loved, being special, and being cherished. We fantasize about what it will be like when we reach the long-awaited goal. We work very hard to realize this dream. Then, at last, we find ourselves there.
But we often gain back what we have lost. Even so, we continue to believe that next time it will be different. Next time, we will keep it off. Next time, being thin will finally fulfill its promise of everlasting happiness, self-worth, and, of course, love.
It took me a long while to realize that there was something more for me to learn about beauty. Beauty standards vary with culture. In Samoa a woman is not considered attractive unless she weighs more than 200 pounds. More importantly, if it’s happiness that we want, why not put our energy there rather than on the size of our body? Why not look inside? Many of us strive hard to change our body, but in vain. We have to find a way to live comfortably inside our body and make friends with and cherish ourselves. When we change our attitudes toward ourselves, the whole world changes.

試題分析：
小題1:細(xì)節(jié)題推斷題。文章第一、二自然段。作者一直認(rèn)為自己所遭受的痛苦都是與體重有關(guān)，只要沒有了體質(zhì)問題，別的傷心、被人排斥都會(huì)隨之消失。可知，很多人也錯(cuò)誤地認(rèn)為改變體型就可以解決一切，所以這個(gè)“一切”，通過排除法也可知是“一切問題”。B為所有的財(cái)產(chǎn)，C為整個(gè)世界，D為絕對(duì)真理，均不符合。故選A。
小題2:本題屬于細(xì)節(jié)推斷題�？捎门懦�法逐一排除。A稱作者是薩摩亞人，從第四自然段可知，作者只是想舉例說明美的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)與文化差異。排除A，而B的意思是作者成功的減肥了。從全文來看沒有一處地方提到是否作者減肥成功，排除B。D的意思是作者很有可能在一次事故中受傷了。文章講的是體重問題給作者帶了的困擾，后來意識(shí)到美有更多的內(nèi)涵，意識(shí)到要更為珍愛自我，改變對(duì)自己的看法，這樣整個(gè)世界都將隨之改變，并沒有提到什么事故。D排除，故選C。可推斷出作者被自己的體重問題困擾了很久。
小題3:本題屬于細(xì)節(jié)題。先找到原文的對(duì)應(yīng)地方，we continue to believe that next time it will be different. Next time, we will keep it off. Next time, being thin will finally fulfill its promise of everlasting happiness, self-worth, and, of course, love.第三自然段講了那些體重又重新回歸的人會(huì)繼續(xù)相信下一次會(huì)不同，下一次他們還會(huì)變瘦，并將會(huì)實(shí)現(xiàn)自己永恒的幸福、自我的價(jià)值，當(dāng)然也包括愛。四個(gè)選項(xiàng)看，C答案“他們對(duì)未來的體重控制計(jì)劃懷著樂觀的情感”符合。
小題4:主旨題。從文章最后一句When we change our attitudes toward ourselves, the whole world changes.可知，當(dāng)我們改變我們對(duì)自己的生活態(tài)度時(shí)，整個(gè)世界都會(huì)隨之改變。
點(diǎn)評(píng)：文章講述作者對(duì)自己體重的困擾，剛開始以為只要改變了自己的體重，一切問題都可以迎刃而解。后來自己終于領(lǐng)悟到生活的態(tài)度才是最重要的，改變了自己也就是改變了整個(gè)世界。細(xì)節(jié)題居多，答題時(shí)在文章找到對(duì)應(yīng)的地方，用筆進(jìn)行標(biāo)記，這有利于后期有時(shí)間檢查時(shí)可以立刻找到答案的位置。仔細(xì)理解作者所講的意思，再結(jié)合選項(xiàng)，通過排除法和自己對(duì)全文的把握，選出正確答案。
