You Can Make a Windsock(風(fēng)筒)

　　Have you ever seen a windsock blowing in the wind? Well, you can make one of your own! This is a fun project that you can do with things you may have. You just need to follow a few easy steps.

　　You will need:

　　● one piece of heavy colored paper

　　● five ribbons

　　● strong tape

　　● a string

　　● a pencil

　　What to do:

　　Step 1: Draw pictures on the paper. You can write your name on it. Do anything that will make it special to you.

　　Step 2: Make the paper into the shape of a tube. Hold one of the shorter edges(邊緣) over the other. Then make them together with the tape at each end and in the middle.

　　Step 3: Use a pencil to make a hole into both sides of the tube. The holes should be only on one end of the tube. Pull the string through both holes. Then tie the ends of the string together.

　　Step 4: Now make five holes around the top of the other end of the tube. Put a ribbon through each of the holes. Tie a knot in the ends. Make sure the knots are bigger than the holes.

　　Now your windsock is ready to use, but how does it work? The shape of the tube plays an important part. Wind blows through the tube and makes it fly and dance around. Hold the windsock up in the air by its string and run around. It will fly behind you. You can also hang it outside and watch it dance around on its own!

　　【解析】本文通過文字與圖表的結(jié)合，向我們介紹了風(fēng)筒的制作。

　　1. D，細(xì)節(jié)判斷題。

　　問題：你在紙上畫圖是為了使風(fēng)筒_____. 根據(jù)問題主干“You draw pictures on the paper”可定位其目的在step 1中，根據(jù)文中“Do anything that will make it special to you.”(做這些事是為了使它對(duì)你有特殊意義)可知，正確答案為D。

　　2. A，細(xì)節(jié)判斷題。

　　問題：在第二步中下面哪個(gè)東西是需要的?A. Tape.出現(xiàn)在Step 2;B. Ribbons. 出現(xiàn)在Step 4;C. A pencil. 出現(xiàn)在Step 3;D. A string. 出現(xiàn)在Step 3;另根據(jù)“Then make them together with the tape at each end and in the middle.”(用膠帶在中間和兩頭把他們粘在一起)可知，正確答案為A。

　　3. C，細(xì)節(jié)判斷題。

　　問題：在你把絲帶穿過紙筒上的洞后你要做什么?根據(jù)問題主句“put ribbons through the holes in the tube”將答案定位在Step 4，根據(jù)“Put a ribbon through each of the holes. Tie a knot in the ends.”可知，正確答案為C。

　　4. A，細(xì)節(jié)判斷題。

　　問題：使風(fēng)筒飛行最重要的可能是什么?根據(jù)問題內(nèi)容及本文結(jié)構(gòu)，我們將答案定位在最后一段，根據(jù)文中“Now your windsock is ready to use, but how does it work? The shape of the tube plays an important part.”(你的風(fēng)筒準(zhǔn)備使用，但怎樣工作，紙筒的外形很重要)可知，正確答案為A。

　　5. B，主旨理解題。

　　問題：這篇文章的主要目的是什么?主旨題要與中心句相關(guān)，本文的中心句“Well, you can make one of your own!”(你可以做一個(gè)自己的風(fēng)筒)A. To tell an interesting story.講一個(gè)重要的故事;B. To explain how to do something.解釋如何做東西;C. To teach an important lesson.講一個(gè)重要的課;D. To show what a windsock is like.展示風(fēng)筒像什么;

　　根據(jù)文章主題句以及文章結(jié)構(gòu)，可知選項(xiàng)A，C和D與文章不一致，故正確答案為B。

　　【考點(diǎn)】圖表說明文類閱讀理解

　　【點(diǎn)撥】文章的結(jié)構(gòu)在閱讀理解中關(guān)系重大，本文一個(gè)總題目You Can Make a Windsock(風(fēng)筒);兩個(gè)二級(jí)題目：You will need:(需要什么)和What to do(做什么)接下來是需要的東西(5個(gè))和怎樣做(四步)，通過對(duì)結(jié)構(gòu)的觀察可知文章的中心在第一段，整篇文章總—分—總結(jié)構(gòu)。這樣對(duì)文章的理解更進(jìn)一步，問題的解決更簡單一些。
