【2013】阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中，选出最佳选项。
Imagination and fantasy can play an important role in achieving the things we fear.Children know this very well. Fred Epstein，in his book If I Make It to Five，tells a story he heard from one of his friends about Tom，a four－year－old boy with a cancer in his back bone.He came through several operations and a lot of pain by mastering his imagination.
Tom loved to pretend，and he particularly loved to play superheroes. Dr. Epstein explained that it was actually a brilliant way for his young mind to handle the terrifying and painful life he led.
The day before his third trip to the operating room，Tom was terribly afraid.“Maybe I could go as Superman，”he whispered to his mom.Hearing this, the mother hesitated for a while.She had avoided buying the expensive costume(戏装)，but finally she agreed.
The next day Tom appeared as the powerful Superman，showing off through the hospital halls and coolly waving his hand to the people greeting him along the way.And Tom，with the strength of his fantasy，successfully made it through the operation.
The power of imagination need not be reserved for children only.We all have the power to use our fantasies to attempt things we never thought possible，to go through those things that seem impossible，and to achieve what we never believed we could. Just as Dr.Epstein puts it，“If you can dream it，you can do it.”
It doesn't mean that you should dress as a superhero for your next job interview.But，next time you are tested in a way that seems impossible, imagine what it would take to overcome it.Become the person you need to become to win over your challenge and do it in your mind first.So，let your imagination run wild，and dare to dream.
26．What do we know about Tom? A．He was seriously ill. B．He was a dishonest boy. C．He was crazy about magic. D．He was Dr.Epstein's patient.
27．What can be inferred about Tom's mother? A．She was a rich lady. B．She refused Tom's request. C．She wanted Tom to be a superhero. D．She wanted to get Tom through the pain.
28．When Tom went for the third operation，he ________． A．pretended to be painful B．acted like a superhero C．appeared in poor spirits D．argued with his mother
29．In the last paragraph，you are advised ________． A．to go through some difficult tests B．to wake up from your wild dreams C．to become a powerful person in your mind D．to wear expensive clothes for job interviews
30．What is the purpose of the passage? A．To tell us an interesting story. B．To help us make right decisions. C．To advise us to care about children. D．To encourage us to use our imagination.
【要点综述】 文章告诉我们，面对苦难和挑战，要充分发挥想象力的作用，使自己内心强大起来，梦想才能实现。
26．A 细节理解题。由第一段的“Tom，a four－year－old boy with a cancer in his back bone.He came through several operations…”可知，Tom 病得很厉害。
27．D 推理判断题。由第四段的“And Tom, with the strength of his fantasy，successfully made it through the operation.”可以看出，Tom的妈妈答应儿子的要求，就是想帮儿子减少手术的痛苦感。其他选项可以这样排除：由第三段的“She had avoided buying the expensive costume(戏装)，but finally she agreed.”可以看出A和B错误；C项可以由常识排除。
28．B 细节理解题。由第四段的“The next day Tom appeared as the powerful Superman, showing off through the hospital halls and coolly waving his hand to the people greeting him along the way.”可知当时他的行为和超人一样。故选B。
29．C 推理判断题。这是对前面所讲述的故事的升华，故事中小Tom用自己的想象力战胜了痛苦，作者在这里也建议我们面对困难时要“need to become to win over your challenge and do it in your mind first.”还要“let your imagination run wild, and dare to dream.”由此可见，C项符合题意。
30．D 写作目的题。文章开篇点题：Imagination and fantasy can play an important role in achieving the things we fear.告诉我们想象力的重要性，然后通过一个具体的例子加以论证。最后一段中作者又鼓励我们在挑战和困难面前使用想象力，使自己内心强大起来，故选D。
【2013】阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中，选出最佳选项。
Some people think that success is only for those with talent or those who grow up in the right family，and others believe that success mostly comes down to luck.I'm not going to say luck，talent，and circumstances don't come into play because they do.Some people are born into the right family while others are born with great intelligence，and that's just the reality of how life is.
