The mathematical genius
数学天才
Look at the young man in the picture. He is taking a

big bottle of water in his hand. He looks a little shy while
speaking. Maybe you think he is a student. No! He is a
university teacher. His name is Wei Dongyi.
He is called God Wei. Among thousands of students,
you can find God Wei easily because no matter which
season it is, he always carries a bottle of water and walks fast. He refills drinking
water into his bottle. Someone asked him why. He said it was environmental.
Wei won gold medals at the International Mathematical Olympiad twice at high school. He got into Peking University without taking the
entrance exam. Wei is shy. Wei doesn't use social media, doesn't like answering the
phone and doesn't go to parties. He is simple.
This genius lives in his own world. He does not need to care about other
people's opinions. He simply loves maths, and he is willing to put all his heart into it.
Wei is talented and hard-working. He sets a good example to young people, and he is a real star we should run after.

解析
【分析】
对于第一题完成句子,首先观察到句首的“Look!”提示句子要用现在进行时,我们需要回到原文找到描述韦神动作的句子,原文提到“he always carries a bottle of water and walks fast”,将动词转换为现在分词形式即可完成填空。对于选择题,每一题都需要带着问题到原文中定位关键信息:第1题找韦东奕在北大的身份,第2题找描述韦神性格的词汇,第3题找他全身心投入的学科,通过定位原文句子就能得出答案。
【解析】
一、完成句子:
根据原文第二段“Among thousands of students, you can find God Wei easily because no matter which season it is, he always carries a bottle of water and walks fast.”,句中“Look!”表明句子为现在进行时,谓语动词要用现在分词形式,carry的现在分词是carrying,walk的现在分词是walking,故填carrying;walking。
二、选择题:
1. 根据第一段“No! He is a university teacher. His name is Wei Dongyi.”以及“He got into Peking University without taking the entrance exam.”可知,韦东奕是北京大学的老师,故选B。
2. 根据第三段“He is simple.”可知,韦神是质朴、简单的,故选A。
3. 根据第四段“He simply loves maths, and he is willing to put all his heart into it.”,句中it指代前文的maths,可知他愿意全身心投入数学,故选C。
【答案】
一、carrying;walking
二、1. B 2. A 3. C
【知识点】
现在进行时用法,阅读理解细节查找,词汇理解
【点评】
本文围绕数学天才韦东奕的日常和事迹展开,题目侧重对文章细节信息的提取和基础语法的应用,既考查学生的信息定位能力,也巩固了现在进行时的相关知识,引导学生关注优秀榜样,同时提升英语阅读能力。
