(2021四川眉山中考)

An elephant was standing and picking leaves from a tree. A small fly came, flying and buzzing near his ear. The elephant waved it away with his long ears. Then the fly came again and the elephant waved it away once more.

This happened several times. Then the elephant asked the fly, “Why are you so restless and noisy? Why can’t you just stay in one place?”

The fly answered, “I am interested in whatever I see, hear or smell. My five senses, and everything that happens around me, pull me here and there and I cannot resist (抵抗) them. What is your secret? How can you stay so calm and still?”

The elephant stopped eating and said, “My five senses do not rule me. I am in control of myself—my senses do not tell me what to do. This helps me stay focused on whatever I do, and so, keep my mind calm and still. Now that I am eating, I am completely enjoying eating. In this way, I can just focus on enjoying my food.”

After hearing these words, the fly’s eyes opened wide and a smile appeared on his face. He looked at the elephant and said, “I understand! I will always be restless if I let my senses control me. On the other hand, if I try to use some self-control, my mind will become calm and I’ll be able to stay still."

It is said that the mind is restless and pays attention to whatever is in front of it. But if you can control what you pay attention to, you can control your mind.

A. he had nowhere to land                   B. he couldn’t see things clearly

A. Being in control of one’s senses.     B. Enjoying eating.

C. Being able to find peace.            D. Focusing on many things at the same time.

3. Which of the following is TRUE according to the story?

A. The fly can resist everything that happens around him.

B. The five senses always rule the elephant.

C. The fly will be calm if the senses control him.

3. B  考查连系动词辨析。句意：——她给我们讲了一个多有趣的故事啊! ——是的，而且她的嗓音听上去很甜美。根据设空处后面的形容词 sweet并结合题干可推测此处表示“她的嗓音听上去很甜美”，所以sounded 符合句意，故选B。

 [语篇解读]本文是一篇记叙文，讲述的是一只苍蝇和一头大象的故事。苍蝇容易受外界的诱惑，总是那么不安分地飞来飞去，这让大象很是不满。在大象看来，正是由于自己掌控自己，才能保持头脑冷静，并且总是能专注于做某件事。

1. C  推理判断题。根据第三段苍蝇的叙述“I am interested in whatever I see, hear or smell.”可知，他对所看到、听到或闻到的任何东西都感兴趣。由此判断，他对周围的一切都很感兴趣。故选C。

2. A  细节理解题。根据第四段中的“I am in control of myself—my senses do not tell me what to do. This helps me stay focused on whatever I do, and so, keep my mind calm and still.”可知，大象能控制自己，不受感官控制，这有助于他保持头脑冷静和平静。故选A。

3. D  细节理解题。选项D与第四段中的“This helps me stay focused on whatever I do, and so, keep my mind calm and still.”一致。故选D。

4. D  主旨大意题。本文通过苍蝇和大象的故事告诉人们：应合理地控制思想。故标题为“Take Control of Your Mind”。
