What makes a gift special？Is it the price you see on the gift receipt？Or is it the look on the recipient's face when they receive it that determines the true value？What gift is worth the most?
This Christmas I was debating what to give my father.My dad is a hard person to buy for because he never wants anything.I pulled out my phone to read a text message from my mom saying that we were leaving for Christmas shopping for him when I came across a message on my phone that I had locked.The message was from my father.My eyes fell on a photo of a flower taken in Wyoming，and underneath a poem by William Blake.The flower，a lone dandelion standing against the bright blue sky，inspired me.My dad had been reciting those words to me since I was a kid.That may even be the reason why I love writing.I decided that those words would be my gift to my father.
I called back.I told my mom to go without me and that I already created my gift.I sent the photo of the cream-colored flower to my computer and typed the poem on top of it.As I was arranging the details another poem came to mind.The poem was written by Edgar Allan Poe；my dad recited it as much as he did the other.I typed that out as well and searched online for a background to the words of it.The poem was focused around dreaming，and after searching I found the perfect picture.The image was painted with blues and greens and purples，twisting together to create the theme and wonder of a dream.As I watched both poems passing through the printer，the white paper coloring with words that shaped my childhood.I felt that this was a gift that my father would truly appreciate.
Christmas soon arrived.The minute I saw the look on my dad's face as he unwrapped those swirling black letters carefully placed in a cheap frame，I knew I had given the perfect gift.
56．The idea for a special gift began to form when the author was ______.
A．doing shopping
B．having a debate
C．reading a message
D．leaving for Wyoming
剖析：C 细节理解题。根据第二段第三句“I pulled out my phone to read a text message from my mom saying that we were leaving for Christmas shopping for him when I came across...”可知，作者在读母亲发的手机短信时有了给父亲买一份特殊礼物的想法。故C项正确。
57．The author's inspiration for the gift came from ______.
A．a photo of a flower
B．a story about a kid
C．a call from the mother
D．a text about Christmas
剖析：A 细节理解题。根据第二段第三句及第六句中的“The flower...inspired me.” 可知作者在读手机短信时无意中发现一张鲜花配有小诗的相片，这给了作者灵感。故A项正确。
59．The author made the gift by ______.
A．searching for the poems online
B．drawing the background by hand
C．painting the letters in three colors
D．matching the words with pictures
剖析：D 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段最后可以看出，作者选中了Edgar Allan Poe的一首诗后又精挑细选了一张图片然后涂色，以制造出诗歌所表达的主题最终将其打印作为给父亲的礼物。故D项正确。
细节理解题大多是根据文章中的具体信息如事实、例证、原因、过程、论述等进行提问的。有些问题可以在文章中直接找到答案，有些则要我们在理解的基础上将有关内容进行分析才能找到，比如计算、排序、是非判断、图形比较等。
这类题目较为容易，做此类题的方法一般是先用寻读法找出与问题相关的词语或句子，再对相关的部分进行细读，找出正确答案。

Martin was returning to work in his London office after spending two weeks with his brother in New York.He was coming back with a heavy heart.It was not just that it was the end of a wonderful holiday; it was not just that he invariably suffered badly from jet lag(时差); it was that Monday mornings always began with a team meeting and，over the months，he had grown to hate them.
Martin was aware that colleagues approached these meetings with hidden agendas; they indulged in (沉溺于)gameplaying; and he knew that people were not being honest and open.The meetings themselves were bad enough—there was all the moaning afterwards at the meeting like “I could have improved on that idea，but I wasn't going to say”．
As this morning's meeting began，Martin prepared himself for the usual dullness and boredom.But，as the meeting progressed，he became aware of a strange background noise.At first，he thought that he was still hearing the engine noise from the aircraft that had brought him back to London.But，as he concentrated on the noise，it became a little clearer.
He realized，to his amazement，that he could actually hear what they were thinking at the same time as they were speaking.What surprised him，even more than the acquisition(获得)of this strange power，was that he discovered that what people were saying was not really what they were thinking.They were not making clear their reservations.They were not supporting views which they thought might be popular.They were not contributing their new insights.They were not volunteering their new ideas.
Martin found it impossible not to respond to his new knowledge.So he started to make gentle interventions，based more on what he could hear his colleagues thinking than on what he could hear them saying.“So，John，are you really saying...” “Susan，do you really think that？” “Tom，have you got an idea on how we could take this forward？” They looked at him，puzzled.In truth，he felt rather proud of his newly-acquired talent.
As the meeting progressed，it was clear to him that each member of the meeting was learning how to hear the thoughts of the others.The gameplaying started to fall away; people started to speak more directly; views became better understood; the atmosphere became more open and trusting.
The meeting ended.As people left the room，Martin found that he could still hear what they were thinking.“That was the best meeting we've ever had.” “All meetings should be like that.” “In future，I'm going to say what I think”．
1．It is known from the first paragraph that Martin ______.
A．just came back from his business trip in New York
B．was found to suffer from a serious heart disease during the trip
C．had a good time during his fortnight's stay in New York
D．didn't like his work in his London office
2．Why did Martin hate his company's team meeting?
A．Because it had to be held every Monday morning.
B．Because he was tired of hosting such a meeting.
C．Because he couldn't control the meeting that was out of order.
D．Because the meeting atmosphere wasn't open and trusting.
3．The underlined part “his newly-acquired talent” in Paragraph 5 means that he could ______.
A．still hear the engine noise of the plane though he was back
B．clearly hear what the members of the meeting were saying
C．actually control the thoughts of the members of the meeting
D．express what the meeting members were thinking based on their words and their thoughts
4．What do we know about this Monday morning's meeting from the passage?
A．Martin made people say what they were thinking immediately the meeting began.
B．Martin was angry at the dullness of the meeting at the beginning of the meeting all the time.
C．Martin led people to express their real thoughts with the meeting progressing.
D．Many members of the meeting played games and told lies at the meeting all the time.
5．It is inferred from the last two paragraphs that towards the end of the meeting Martin would hear such words as “______”．
A．I was thinking of making a suggestion—but I couldn't be bothered
B．I have got an idea on how we could take this forward.I think we should...
C．The usual people say the usual things，so I have no other new ideas
D．I could have improved on that idea，but I wasn't going to say
1．C 细节理解题。根据第一段“It was not just that it was the end of a wonderful holiday...”中的“a wonderful holiday”可判断，他在纽约的两周过得很愉快，由此判断答案为C项。
2．D 细节理解题。根据第二段可知，与会人员口是心非，表里不一，这种不公开、不诚实的会风使他厌烦，由此判断正确答案为D项。
3．D 词义猜测题。第四段提到马丁能根据与会人员所说的话而得知他们心里的真实想法，之后第五段接着说，他说出与会人员的真实想法，使别人都迷惑地看着他，由此判断，“他新获得的能力”即意为：他能根据别人的话说出他们心里的真实想法。
4．C 细节理解题。会初，马丁准备着忍受会议的乏味，而后随着会议的进行，他发现自己能根据别人所说的话而得知他们心里的真实想法，对此他做出反应，即试着说出他们心里的真实想法，从而引导人们学会理解他人的想法，并坦诚地说出自己心里的想法。由此判断正确答案为C项。
5．B 推理判断题。根据“people started to speak more directly”可知，随着会议的进行，与会人员开始坦诚地说出心里真实的想法，B项即为这样的话，故正确答案为B项。
