2024高考英語【北師大版】一輪復習提能訓練（18）含（解析）答案

　　高考題型提能練(十八)　Unit 18

　　Ⅰ.閱讀理解

　　A

　　A year after graduation, I was offered a position teaching a writing class. Teaching was a

　　profession I had never seriously considered, though several of my stories had been published. I

　　accepted the job without hesitation, as it would allow me to wear a tie and go by the name of Mr.

　　Davis. My father went by the same name, and I liked to imagine people getting the two of us

　　confused. “Wait a minute，” someone might say，“are you talking about Mr. Davis the retired man,

　　or Mr. Davis the respectable scholar？”

　　The position was offered at the last minute, and I was given two weeks to prepare, a period

　　I spent searching for briefcase (公文包) and standing before my fulllength mirror, repeating the

　　words，“Hello, class.

　　I'm Mr. Davis.” Sometimes I would give myself an aggressive voice.

　　Sometimes I would sound experienced. But when the day eventually came, my nerves kicked in

　　and the true Mr. Davis was there.

　　I sounded not like a thoughtful professor, but rather a

　　12yearold boy.

　　I arrived in the classroom with paper cards designed in the shape of maple leaves. I had cut

　　them myself out of orange construction paper. I saw nine students along a long table. I handed out the cards, and the students wrote down their names and fastened them to their breast pockets

　　as I required.

　　?All right then，” I said. “Okay, here we go.” Then I opened my briefcase and realized that I

　　had never thought beyond this moment. I had been thinking that the students would be the first to talk, offering their thoughts and opinions on the events of the day. I had imagined that I would sit at the edge of the desk, overlooking a forests of hands. Every student would yell. “Calm down, you'll all get your turn. One at a time, one at a time！”

　　A terrible silence ruled the room, and seeing no other opinions, I inspected the students to pull out their notebooks and write a brief essay related to the theme of deep disappointment.
