Question

Among a group of middle-aged men and women，who were discussing bringing about quality education(素质教育)，was a young man dressed in a white shirt．Within minutes, he was called onto the dais(讲台)．Twenty-two-year-old Babar Ali was surrounded by educators from across India．He was popularly known as the world’s youngest head teacher． 

    The school that Babar started in poor Bhabta village has completely changed．When he was nine years old, he had only eight students in his school．Now the school has 300 students and 10 teachers. The school is called Ananda  Siksha  Niketan. It is recognized by the West Bengal government．

    Today Babar is a student in the morning．He is learning English literature at Berhampore Krishanath College．But he comes home in the afternoon to teach his students．

Baber was discussing education at the National Summit on Quality in Education(NSQE)．The meeting was held in Bangalore，capital of Karnataka State in southern India．

    “It all started as a game when I used to teach my sister, my first student, in my backyard．Later, some children from the village often came to my classes and that was how the school was born,” he said．   

    His biggest achievement is that six of his students have now started teaching in his school after their college hours．

    In another month, Babar’s dream of a school building will soon come true．Many people, a large part of whom are from Karnataka，have helped him realize the dream．They have given his school a lot of money．   

    Although he has received so much attention and recognition(认可)，he is still not fulfilled．“There are people in my village who do not go to schoo1．And there is a long way to go as so many children still need to receive an education，”he says．

【解析】

试题分析：本文主要讲述了世界上最年轻的校长Babar Ali的事迹，他建立了Ananda Siksha Niketan学校，但是他仍不满足，他认为在帮助贫困地区儿童上学这一问题上还有很长的路要走。

1.D推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Among a group of middle-aged men and women, who were discussing bringing about quality education”可知，他们正在开会讨论素质教育问题，故D项正确。

2.A细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The school that Babar started in poor Bhabta village has completely changed… The school is called Ananda Siksha Niketan.”可知，Ananda Siksha Niketan学校是由Babar Ali建立的，故A项正确。

3.B词义猜测题。根据画线词后的“There are people in my village who do not go to schoo1. And there is a long way to go as so many children still need to receive an education,”可知，尽管受到了很多关注和认可，Babar并不满足，他认为还有很长的路要走，由此可知画线词词义为“满足的”，故B项正确。

利用上下文提供的情景和线索，进行合乎逻辑的综合分析进而推测词义，是阅读过程中的一大关键，这也是近年来高考考查的热点。最常见的就是利用上下文语境、常识和语法关系推断词义。1.抓住所需推断词汇前后的“mean”或系动词或破折号等直接定义该词的部分。2.抓住文章主旨与该段所表达的中心。特别对于议论文要牢记论点与论据的相互支撑关系。5. are people in my village who do not go to schoo1. And there is a long way to go as so many children still need to receive an education,”可知，尽管受到了很多关注和认可，Babar并不满足，他认为还有很长的路要走，由此可知画线词词义为“满足的”，故B项正确。
