语文——————————————————————————————————————————————————
第一部分
人生态度,体现了叶三有审美情趣,为下文写他是个不谄媚、懂艺术的鉴赏家做出铺垫。2.②叶三懂画③叶三评画④叶三与画共存亡3.这句话表现季陶民的清高(或雅、与众不同)的性格特点。这与他对叶三另眼相看态度形成对比,突出了叶三既不像那些庸风雅士假名士那样假充内行(或不懂装懂)、也不谀媚的特点。4.例1:这个结尾很好,是全文的升华。因为本小说体现的是中国文化的传统精神;重友谊、重知已。正如俞伯牙摔琴谢知音,这里的精神是和先人一脉相承的。例2: 这个结尾不合适,是全文的败笔。因为叶三把画带进棺材,不过这只是满足了他个人的占有欲望,却让作品永远不见天日。例3:这个结尾是神来之笔,将前文的赞赏化为了莫大的惋惜。因为叶三把画作带进了棺材,体现的是文化痼疾之一;封闭狭隘。作者在《胡同文化》中也曾有类似写法,文尾以“再见呀,胡同”体现对封闭的胡同文化的清醒认识。5.C 6.B 7.D8.指靠着别从丢失的粮食解决了暂时困难后始终感恩图报的心愿。
9.全家人对“一袋米”给予关注,这是用了映衬的手法。它表明:在充满仁爱的家庭里,良心都是相通的。
10.①奶奶神经质般地寻找丢粮人。②奶奶主动送给领导小孩吃食和零花钱。③奶奶弄丢了爸爸一月的工资,赚得了道义上的补偿。④晚年的奶奶更投入地做善事。11.可举如下例子:①贫困学子受到他人的关爱、照顾后,②子女得到了父母的养育,待父母年迈后回报父母的舐犊深情;③人类从大自然获取丰厚的享用,懂得了可持续发展的真谛,倍加珍惜、爱护,④从事企业经营活动的老板、经理等生意人,以诚实守信为荣,公平竞争,互惠互利,不掺杂做假,不缺斤少两,不以次充好;考查,端正考风,严守考纪,不弄虚作假;⑥干了有愧于良心的事,设法做善事以补偿。总之,对良心的安抚,就是始终保持一颗感恩的心。二、文言文阅读
12.D 13.C 14.A 15.B16.B 17.B 18.B
19.(1)拳拳之情,使我不能废止奉养祖母而远离。(2)天地神明实在也都看得清楚。三、古诗阅读
20.“懒”“迟”两字写出了女主人起床时懒散迟缓的精神状态,传神地表达出女主人公空虚(怅惘)、百无聊赖却又满腹愁怨的心情。
21.运用了反衬的手法,以鹧鸪的成双成对来反衬女主人公的孤独寂寞。22.追随着蜜蜂围绕着绿色的蕙兰飞,为了躲避黄雀藏在绿叶之中,在太阳的映照之下忽然争着飞起,趁着风一起归去。在花中出没,顺着高低不同的绿叶飞翔。写了素蝶的远近高低不同方位的动作,采用细节描写,以蜂、雀、日、风、花、叶作衬托。
23.托物言志,写自己徒负才华,只能追随他人,仕途起起伏伏,施展才能。
24.①因仕途失意而对前途忧虑和无可奈何的心情;②希望脱离官场返回家乡的心情
25.①一句一个场景;②以景写情,情景交融;③对仗十分工巧。
四、作文
26.略 第二部分
一、现代文阅读
1-4 CABC 5-7 CCD 8.(1爱亲近的人爱性格相融的人也爱观点相悖的人。不迁就他们的弱点而赞赏他们的长处。
(2)因没掌握养山茶花及文竹的要领而害怕养其他花。
9.因为养水仙不需要太复杂的技术,作者只用清水就能养好花,不会引起自责和悲怜。在作者眼里,“水仙”是一种高洁的花,一种文静幽雅的美。
10“揭示爱的哲理,为下文借‘水仙’赞扬‘博爱’这一主题做铺垫”11.B、D
二、文言文阅读

2 12-15 DCCB 16-19 ACAA
三、古诗阅读
20.本诗抒发的是作者的离别之愁,以及 别后的怀念、忧伤的情感。
21.红叶青山色彩艳丽,乍看似不协调, 实际上恰恰是对离愁的有利反衬。景色越 美,越觉离别的难堪。这是典型的以“乐 景写哀情”的手法。22.孤独、老病、重阳登高而忧愁无法排解 (因病不能多饮酒而无心赏菊)。
23.他乡日落时分,黑猿声声悲啼,霜天秋晚,白 雁南来的凄凉景象。渲染以西沉的落日、凄清的猿啼、故乡南飞的白雁绘声绘色地渲染凄清之境。
(亦可答:对比。异乡之景与旧国之物的对比,黑 猿与白雁的色彩对比。)24.诗人惜春、恋春、留春,情真意切,想像新奇。表现了热爱生活,热爱自然的美好情感。这两句诗还有珍惜时光,珍惜生命的哲理意味。
25.不能调换。因为“闹”,乃安静、寂寞的反义词,即热烈之意。这句诗写红杏怒放,如火如荼。它不说春意“浓”、“盛”等,而说“春意闹”,精妙之处在于借助感觉的沟通、转移,将无生命的杏花化为有生命、有感情的事物。写出了红杏竟相盛开,争妍斗艳的景象与情趣,写尽了一派盎然的春意,王国维评价为“着~‘闹’字而境界全出”,此说极为精当。四、作文
26.略 第三部分
一、现代文阅读。
1-3 ABB 4.运用比喻的手法,将空巢比作时光的脚印,形象表现了鸟的空巢随着时光流逝,日渐残损、破败的情景,表达了作者对鸟去巢空的惆怅之情。
5.描写了三类空巢:①乡村空巢(或乡村现代气派的住宅),豪华气派却没有人气,是主人炫富的象征:
②市井空巢(或古四合院),曾经兴旺,如今萧条、空旷、岑寂;
③南方空巢(或漂泊者的空巢),移动不固定,缺少温馨。6.“起点”意味着曾经寻常而温暖的“空巢”是名人走向广大世界、无限量地展示才情的出发点,如今又寄寓了人们探寻名人成功足迹、获得教化的心愿。
7.首尾呼应,与文章开头北方鸟的空巢的破败景象形成强烈反差。描绘了北方空巢雏鸟欢叫、生机勃勃的动人画面,寄寓了呼唤游子归巢、亲人团聚,向往温暖和美生活的愿望。
8.狗旺是条“狗”,因为他纵狗欺人,掘坟盗墓;村人也带有狗的奴性,怕硬欺软,对“强者”敢怒而不敢言,对“弱者”落井下石。
9. 侧面烘托狗旺仗势欺人、横行乡里。
10.(1)后面写“他专在晚上做勾当,挖人家的坟,撬人家的棺材板”(2)前面说村人说要打死那畜牲,狗旺一句“你敢”便吓得他们不敢说话;狗旺屋里的人恳求说“它是畜牲”狗还是被打死了。
11. C
二、文言文阅读
12-14 CAA
15.(1)你是想赚得直言敢谏的名声呢?还是想给人好处来讨好别人呢?
(2)把失去官位看作是抛弃草鞋一般,甘心降职贬谪就像是乐于还乡一样。16-19 BCAD三、古诗阅读
20.颔联借景抒情,描写了秋季冷清寂静的景色,以此突出作者当时心情,唐朝已走向衰落,作者对国家破败感到无比伤怀,眼前之景正好衬托诗人心情。
21.“紫艳半开篱菊静”一句寄托诗人对国家还抱有一些希望的思想感情,对眼前的美景充满向往,但国家以败,犹如半开的紫艳和安静的菊花,昔日辉煌还能依稀看见,作者借此来抒发对国家关怀,忧国的思想感情。22.作者采用拟人化的手法,赋予柳条藤蔓、黄莺以人的情感,并使主客移位,巧妙而含 蓄地表达表 现惜别之情。)
23.用“系”字既切合柳条藤蔓修长柔软的特点,又写出了柳条藤蔓牵衣拉裾的动作,表现 它们依恋主人不忍主人离去的深情。用“啼”字既符合黄莺鸣叫的特点,又似殷殷挽留、凄凄 惜别,让人联想到离别的眼泪。24.特点:自然环境险恶;军情紧急。作用:营造了肃杀的氛围,渲染了边塞紧张 的战争气氛,为边将的出场勾勒背景。(答“是为边将出场作铺垫”也可)
回复

用词简约,几个字就令读者想象出白鸭那种胖 乎乎、慢悠悠、摇摇摆摆徐徐来回的神态。 7. 故乡水土哺育了他,赋予了他诗人的灵性与灵感,对那片土地情有独钟。写秀丽的故乡风 景,跟憔悴的北国风景对比,表现了作者对“雨”的盼望,对故乡美好生活的怀念和向往。 对比手法的使用。通过对北国与故乡差异的描写,反映了作者的理想与现实之间的矛盾。 8. 它通过大雨降临前灰暗沉闷的自然景物的描写,渲染了一种久旱切盼甘霖的强烈情绪,也 隐约透露出渴求变革的焦灼心情。文中心态的刻划和自然景物的描写紧密结合,情景交融, 抒写了尚未走上**道路的小资产阶级知识分子,既不满于黑暗现实,又找不到出路的忧郁感伤的情绪。9.而城市是人类痕迹最集中 的地方。
