六、阅读表达。〔人与自我——做人与做事〕
John was a very strong man. Once he got a job—cutting down wood in the forest. His boss gave him an axe(斧子)and showed him the area where he should work.
On the first day,John cut down 18 trees. “Good,” the boss said. “Keep that up!” Happily,John tried harder the next day,but he could only cut down 15 trees. On the third day he tried even harder,but he could only cut down 10 trees. Day after day he was cutting down fewer and fewer trees. “I must be losing my strength,” John thought. He said sorry to his boss and he said that he could not understand what was going on. “When did you sharpen(磨)your axe?” the boss asked. “Sharpen my axe? I have no time to sharpen my axe. I have been very busy trying to cut down trees!” said John.
Although John was hard-working,he didn't work wisely. He didn't think about the best way to do his job. Many of us never learn new skills,and we think that what we have learned is enough. Sharpening our skills from time to time is the key to success.

解析

【分析】
这是一篇记叙文类阅读表达题,解题思路如下:1. 前两道均为细节理解题,先提取题干中的关键词,回到原文对应位置定位,直接找到对应的信息即可作答;2. 第三道为开放类主旨问答题,需要通读全文,抓住文章末尾点明的核心道理,结合故事内容组织通顺、符合逻辑的英文表述即可,不需要和参考表述完全一致,贴合主旨就可以得分。
【解析】
1. 定位题干关键词"job",找到原文第一段第二句"Once he got a job—cutting down wood in the forest.",直接提取John的工作内容作答即可。
2. 定位题干关键词"on the first day"、"how many trees",找到原文第二段第一句"On the first day,John cut down 18 trees.",可知第一天他砍了18棵树,对应英文表述为Eighteen。
3. 通读全文可知,故事里John只顾着埋头砍树,不肯花时间磨斧子,导致砍树效率越来越低,文章最后一段点明核心主旨:时常打磨我们的技能是成功的关键,结合这个核心点说明原因,表述合理、语法正确即可。
【答案】
1. Cutting down wood in the forest.
2. Eighteen.
3. Sharpening our skills is the key to success. Because the skills can change the speed of doing things. (答案不唯一)
