It turns out that
(2021·天津6月高考·阅读理解B篇)When people ask me how I started writing, I find myself describing an urgent need that I felt to work with language. Having said that, I did not know for a long time what I was looking for. It was not until I followed this feeling to its source that I discovered I had a passion for writing. With some encouragement from my colleagues, I had one of my poems published. This bit of success, however, was the point where my problem began.
Back in 1978, I had to travel between three different campuses in the morning, teaching freshmen composition. I spent afternoons taking my daughter to her ballet and horse-riding lessons. I composed my lectures on the way, and that was all the thinking time I had. When I returned home, there was not enough of me left for writing after a full working day.
As a way out, I decided to get up two hours before my usual time. My alarm was set for 5:00 A.M. The first day I shut it off because I had placed it within arm's reach. The second day I set two clocks, one on my night table, and one out in the hallway. I had to jump out of bed and run to silence it before my family was awoken. This was when my morning writing began.
Since that first morning in 1978, I have been following the habit to this day, not making or accepting many excuses for not writing. I wrote my poems in this manner for nearly ten years before my first book was published. When I decided to write a novel, I divided my two hours: the first for poetry, the second for fiction. Well or badly, I wrote at least two pages a day. This is how my novel, The Line of the Sun, was finished. If I had waited to have the time, I would still be waiting to write my novel.
What I got out of getting up in the dark to work is the feeling that I am in control. For many people, the initial sense of urgency to create easily dies away because it requires making the tough decision: taking the time to create, and stealing it from yourself if it's the only way.

课时作业评价
Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
(2025·福建统考)My plan to learn to play the cello (大提琴) was a healthy choice.So I took the next innocent step of going to a shop that sells and rents string instruments, especially violins, violas, and cellos.The place was a hole-in-the-wall, up a steep flight of stairs.Instruments left a narrow path to the counter where a woman with grey hair and warm eyes greeted me.Since I couldn't form a question about what I wanted, I just stood there exploring the scene, which felt immensely pleasurable.
I rented a cello, a bow, and a case to hold them.What attracted me to the cello was its enormous size and its soft, smooth, and memorable sounds.It's an instrument made of beautifully polished wood that I could wrap my arms around and feel its powerful vibrations when the strings were played.That was a good starting point for me.The only problem was that I didn't know how to play it.
There's a popular belief that the cello is a particularly difficult instrument to learn.Another is the admonition, “Don't bother if you are a beginner over age 10!” Well, I was 70, and what others thought no longer influenced me.And besides, I thought of the words of Dr.Cohen, who suggested that learning causes physical changes in the brain.
So I found a teacher who had respect for older adult beginners and I practiced diligently, daily for years, and sometimes disheartened, but I kept up.I'm happy to report that now, more than a decade later, I can hold my own in a string trio and two quartets (two violins, a viola, and me, the female cello) and even a senior community band.Of course, I'll never sound like a world-class cellist but you could recognize a Mozart piece if you heard me play it.And, more importantly, I don't need to please anyone but myself.
Whether it's a pleasurable pastime or a new career, the starting point is the same: wonder, curiosity, determination, and the desire to keep your brain sharp.
语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了步入古稀之年的作者学习大提琴的经历:虽偶遇挫折,却始终未曾放弃,最终取得一定的成果。
√
1.How did the writer feel in the shop?
A.Amused by the shop assistant.
B.Anxious for a live performance.
C.Pleased at the nice music atmosphere.
D.Curious about where to find a teacher.
解析:推理判断题。根据第一段 “Since I couldn't form ...which felt immensely pleasurable.”可以推知,商店里的音乐氛围让作者感到愉悦。
√
2.What does the underlined word “admonition” in paragraph 3 mean?
A.Approval. B.Criticism.
C.Puzzlement. D.Warning.
解析:词义猜测题。根据前文 “There's a popular belief that the cello is a particularly difficult instrument to learn.”以及后文 “Don't bother if you are a beginner over age 10!” 可知,这是在给出一种告诫。由此推知,“admonition”的意思是“警告”,和D项意思相近。
√
3.Why does the writer mention Dr.Cohen in paragraph 3?
A.To recommend a reliable doctor.
B.To provide proof for common belief.
C.To add another reason for her decision.
D.To stress the crucial function of the brain.

No doubt there are ups and downs in life.Whatever the situation is, you shouldn't lose your joy of life.Life is for a limited time only and no one knows how long he/she will live, so why do you waste your time in worrying about the things that are beyond your control? Be happy, and enjoy your life unconditionally.
You enjoy good days but you also need to learn how to enjoy bad days, even enjoy your pain.In 2016 I suffered a sudden heart attack.My colleagues called an ambulance and I was taken to hospital with much pain in my chest.Before reaching the hospital, I was totally exhausted with pain and was going to lose control of my emotions.Then the doctor in the ambulance said, “Don't worry; you are in safe hands.” His words took away all my pain because I started realizing that it was no time to worry about pain and it was time to be happy that my life was safe.At that time, I learnt an important lesson that in pain there is a hidden joy and we must see the bright side and enjoy pain.
You not only enjoy success but you also need to learn to enjoy failure.Celebrating failure will raise your morale and make you more powerful and determined to achieve success.We all make mistakes in life, but only the courageous people laugh at their mistakes and then they reach success without any spiritual burden.A person who learns from mistakes and knows how to turn the bad situation into his/her favor is the most intelligent person and really enjoys his/her life.

1.a 考查冠词。role model为单数可数名词,此处表示泛指,因此使用不定冠词a。
2.who 考查定语从句。空处引导定语从句,指代前面提到的先行词a great hero,并在从句中作主语,应用关系代词who。
3.on 考查介词。on 是介词,与前面的“the negative effect”搭配,表示 “对……有负面影响”。
4.addicted 考查非谓语动词。此处addicted 是过去分词作形容词,用作became的表语,说明people和soldiers的状态。
5.trying 考查非谓语动词。trying 是现在分词,用作状语,与句子主语“He”在逻辑上为主动关系。
6.was allowed 考查被动语态及主谓一致。此处单数主语opium是动作的承受者,故填was allowed。
7.forces 考查名词复数。复数形式forces 意思是“武装力量”。
8.stationed 考查非谓语动词。station意思是“驻扎”,此处过去分词用作后置定语,说明这些官员的状态,故填stationed。

10.until/unless 考查连词。until/unless 是连词,分别引导时间状语从句和条件状语从句,表示“直到……才……”和 “除非……;如果不……”,均符合题意。
