　　Ⅰ.阅读理解

　　(2024·河南十校联考)Perhaps you think you could easily add to your happiness with more money. Strange as it may seem, if you're unsatisfied, the issue is not a lack of means to meet your desires but a lack of desires — not that you cannot satisfy your tastes but that you don't have enough tastes.

　　Real riches consist of well-developed and hearty capacities

　　to enjoy life. Most people are already swamped (淹没) with things. They eat, wear, go and talk too much. They__live__in__too__big__a__house__with__too__many__rooms,__yet__their__house__of__life__is__a__hut.

　　Your house of life ought to be a mansion (豪宅), a royal palace. Every new taste, every additional interest, every fresh enthusiasm adds a room. Here are several rooms your house of life should have.

　　Art should be a desire for you to develop simply because the world is full of beautiful things. If you only understood how to enjoy them and feed your spirit on them, they would make you as happy as to find plenty of ham and eggs when you're hungry.

　　Literature,

　　classic literature, is a beautiful, richly furnished room where you might find many an hour of rest and refreshment. To gain that love would go toward making you a rich person, for a rich person is not someone who has a library but who likes a library.

　　Music like Mozart's and Bach's shouldn't be absent. Real riches are of the spirit. And when you've brought that spirit up to where classical music feeds it and makes you a little drunk, you have increased your thrills and bettered them. And life is a matter of thrills.

　　Sports, without which you remain poor, mean a lot in life. No matter who you are, you would be more human, and your house of life would be better supported against the bad days, if you could, and did, play a bit.

　　Whatever rooms you might add to your house of life, the secret of enjoying life is to keep adding.

　　考点·考向·考法练(十四)

　　Ⅰ.语篇解读：本文是一篇议论文。幸福是什么？幸福能用金钱买来吗？作者在本文中把我们的幸福比作房子，告诉我们要想幸福，就需在我们的房子里增加艺术、文学、音乐、体育等房间。作者的这一论点新颖奇特，希望它能使你更幸福。

　　1．解析：选D　推理判断题。根据文章第二段中的第一句“Real riches consist of well－developed and hearty capacities

　　to enjoy life.”以及下文列举的艺术、文学、音乐和体育都是精神上的东西可知，D项符合文意。

　　2．解析：选B　句意理解题。根据画线句中的“too big, too many, a hut”以及下文提到的精神上的东西——艺术、文学、音乐以及体育可知本句表达的意思是“不管物质多么丰富，他们依旧精神贫乏”，故B项符合题意。

　　3．解析：选C　推理判断题。根据第一段的内容可知，如果不满足的话，有再多的钱也不会幸福，故A项与文意不符；B项“为了使你的房子美丽，艺术是需要的”是写实的，与文章的比喻不符；C项“文学可以丰富我们的精神生活”与文章第五段中的“...making you a rich person”相对应；由文章第七段中的“...mean a lot in life ... more human ...”可知，D项“体育主要使我们身体健康”没抓住主题。

　　4．解析：选A　标题归纳题。根据文中多次出现的“your house of life”以及在“your house of life”中加上“art, literature, music, sports”等房间可知，本文把我们的人生比作了我们住的房子，如果我们想幸福的话，就要多加一些精神上的房间。

　　Ⅱ.语篇解读：本文讲述了一个原本生活还凑合的一家人，因为Lyse和她丈夫双双失业，使原本生活就不富裕的一家人更加困难。然而有一天，Lyse和她女儿一起见到了一个装有现金的信封，而这笔钱正好可以解这个家庭的燃眉之急，但是Lyse为了给女儿树立一个诚信的好榜样，将这笔钱交到了警察手中。

　　1．解析：选C　restricted“有限的”；upset“沮丧的”；grateful“感激的”；sensitive“敏感的”。句意：双方父母都在，还有一个小女儿，他们对这样的生活很感激。故选C。

　　2．解析：选B　appreciate“感激，欣赏”；unemploy“解雇，失业”；disappoint“对……失望”；remove“移除”。前文提到对那样的生活感到感激，but在此表转折，由此可知生活出现不好的变化，B选项符合逻辑。句意：但是她和她丈夫现在双双都失业了。

　　3．解析：选D　cash“现金”；protection“保护”；sale“出售”；repair“修理”。第一段最后一句“So things are a little tense for the Doucet family these days.”可知这一家的生活很紧张。故前面由几个and连接的句子都是造成生活紧张的原因，故可知车需要花钱修理。故选D。由倒数第二段的“the car that needed to be fixed”也可得知答案。

　　4．解析：选B　sick“生病的”；due“预期的，到期的”；desperate“绝望的”；dull“呆滞的”。第一段提到家庭成员，双方父母加上一个女儿，可知此处的第二个孩子应该尚未出生，故选B。由倒数第二段的“the baby that would come soon”也可得知答案。

　　5．解析：选D　gather“收集，集聚”；beg“乞求”；clean“清洁，打扫”；park“停车”。parking lot为固定搭配，意为“停车场”。句意：最近Lyse和女儿经过一家商店的停车场的时候。故选D。

　　6．解析：选A　contain“包含，容纳”；involve“包含，涉及”；charge“收费，投诉”；pay“支付”。句意：Lyse从地上捡起个信封，里面有4 000美元现金。此处要注意contain和involve的区别，前者强调有形的物体，后者则表示抽象的东西或人。故选A。

　　7．解析：选C　a handful of“一把，少数”；a deal of“大量的，相当多的”，后面接不可数名词；a number of“大量的”，后接可数名词复数；a flood of“一大批的，如洪水般的(强调涌现出来)”。后面为explanations，且此处没有强调这些理由涌现出来的意味，只是强调数量之多，故选C。

　　8．解析：选B　expense“开支，花费”；luck“运气，幸运”；hope“希望”；prize“奖赏”。句意：这是一种好运气吗？面对捡到的这些钱，Lyse在想是否是运气的眷顾。故选B。

　　9．解析：选A　belong“属于”；react“反应，重演”；point“指出”；respond“回应，答复”。sth. belong(s) to sb.“某物属于某人”。句意：她只知道这个装有现金的信封是别人的。故选A。

　　10．解析：选D　urge“催促”；affect“影响”；laugh“大笑”；watch“注视着”。由后文可知，Lyse捡钱的时候，女儿在旁边看着；且后文讲述了她为了给女儿树立好榜样，把钱物归原主，故选D。
