2024·深圳市调研 说明文 277词 ★★★☆☆
From cottages surrounded by impressive gardens to days spent exploring sandy beaches and
deep woods filled with wildlife, in My Family and Other Animals, English writer Gerald
Durrell provided a vivid account of his family's time on the Greek island of Corfu in the 1930s.
Come for the arresting descriptions of Corfu landscapes and stay for Durrell's laughoutloud
tales of his unusual family. This book, Durrell wrote humorously in the introduction, “was
intended to be a nostalgic (怀旧的) account of natural history, but in the first few pages,
I__made__the__mistake__of__introducing__my__family.”
Durrell, later known for his zoo keeping and the preservation of wildlife, was just a child
during his family's fiveyear stay in Corfu. He is the 10yearold Gerry in the book—curious,
passionate about animals and a detailed storyteller of his strange family: his imaginative elder
brother Larry with his literary ambitions, lovestruck sister Margo, sporty brother Leslie and his
evercalm, loving mother.
Durrell's attention to detail is what makes the book so attractive, with every sight, sound and
smell of the island brought to life. One minute you'll be laughing as Larry's clever literary friends
walk down to the daffodilyellow cottage, and the next minute you'll be catching your breath as
Durrell describes swimming at night in the Ionian Sea: “Lying on my back in the silky water,
staring at the sky, only moving my hands and feet slightly, I was looking at the Milky Way
stretching like a silk scarf across the sky and wondering how many stars it contained.”
My Family and Other Animals is quite difficult to classify, being one part travel, one part
autobiography, one part natural history, and one part comedy, with a thread of descriptive language
running throughout that sometimes raises it nearly to poetry.
As a real delight to read, it's the perfect literary escapism for any adult or older teenager who
is currently walking down a tough road in life.
【语篇解读】 本文主要向读者推荐了英国作家Gerald Durrell的作品《我的家人和其
他动物》，并介绍了其内容、写作风格等。
4．Which word best describes Durrell's life in Corfu?
A.Risky. B．Busy.
C．Tough. D．Diverse.
答案与解析：D 推断。明题意：本题问“以下哪个词最好地描述了Durrell在科孚岛的生活？”→寻线索：根据第一段中的“From cottages surrounded...filled with wildlife”可知，
书中记录了被花园包围的小屋、沙滩、充满野生生物的树林深处→定答案：据此可以推断
Durrell在科孚岛的生活丰富多彩，故D项正确。
5．What does the underlined sentence mean in Paragraph 2?
A．I introduced my family by mistake.
B．I shouldn't have introduced my family.
C．I couldn't help introducing my family.
D．I gave wrong information about my family.
答案与解析：C 理解句意。结合画线句前面的“was intended to be a nostalgic (怀旧
的) account of natural history”可知，Durrell的原计划是记录自然历史，实际情况却是写了
家人；根据画线句前面的“Durrell wrote humorously”可知，画线句的意思并非其字面意思。
因此，Durrell在前面几页描写家人应是故意而为之，故C项与画线句的意义最为接近。
干扰项分析：选项A中的“by mistake”、B中的“shouldn't have introduced”和D中的
“wrong”都指向了描写家人是错误的举动，但这些内容均与原文中的“Durrell wrote
humorously”的精神相悖，故可全部排除。
6．What are paragraphs 4 and 5 mainly about?
A．The book's writing feature.
B．Durrell's rich imagination.
C．Some interesting plots of the book.
D．Some vivid descriptions of the island.
答案与解析：A 理解段落主旨要义。根据第四段中的“Durrell's attention to detail is
what makes the book...One minute you'll be laughing...the next minute...Durrell describes
swimming”和第五段中的“being one part travel, one part autobiography, one part natural
history, and one part comedy, with a thread of descriptive language”可知，第四、五段主要讲的
是这本书的写作特点，故A项正确。
7．What is the purpose of this text?
A．To share an experience.
B．To recommend a book.
C．To introduce a writing style.
D．To describe an unusual place.
答案与解析：B 理解目的。根据本文内容，尤其是最后一段“As a real delight to
read...tough road in life”可知，本文的写作目的在于向读者推荐《我的家人和其他动物》这
本书，故B项正确。

绍的不同的鞋子代表的态度可知，空处的内容也应与高跟鞋代表的态度有关→对比选项定
