【答案及解析】

1.選D。由第1段的句子…Infact,Jeanisquitelonely.可知答案

選D。

2.選A。Jean認(rèn)為David幽默風(fēng)趣，在搖滾樂和現(xiàn)代舞上和她

有共同的興趣，他們可以在網(wǎng)上快樂地聊上幾個小時。很顯然David

使得Jean很開心。答案選A。

3.選Co文章的最后一句…shefoundthatherspecialfriendwasa

twelve-year-oldboynamedJim!告訴我們，當(dāng)Jean發(fā)現(xiàn)她那特殊的朋

友是一個12歲的小孩時，用了一個感嘆號結(jié)尾，雖然作者沒有直接

說Jean感到驚訝，但是我們可以從這個標(biāo)點(diǎn)符號推斷出她的感覺應(yīng)

該是十分surprised（驚訝的）。

4.選A。本文講述Jean交了個十分投緣的網(wǎng)友，后來卻發(fā)現(xiàn)對

方原來只是一個12歲的小男孩。通過這個故事，短文意在告戒人們

不要輕易相信Q友，答案選A。

根據(jù)以上短文內(nèi)容，然后從每題所給的四個選項(xiàng)中選擇最佳選

項(xiàng)。

1.ThewriterwenttopianolessonswithLindaEvans.

A.attheageof13

5.Theyhaven'tkeptintouch.

A.forabout40years

B.forabout27years

C.sincetheygotmarried

D.sincethewriter'sfamilymovedaway

【答案及解析】

1.選D。開始的時候作者與Linda總是一起去上鋼琴課、看電影、

游泳、騎馬等，但后來在作者13歲的時候，作者一家搬走了，兩人

只能通過書信聯(lián)系。比較四個選項(xiàng)，顯然只能選D。

2.選B。根據(jù)文章第2段中的Soonwewerebusywithchildrenand

movingtonewhomes,andwewrotelessoften根據(jù)文可知，她們之所

以沒經(jīng)常寫信，是因?yàn)樗齻円τ谡疹櫤⒆?，又要搬新家，也就是說,

她們沒有時間寫信。

3.選D。根據(jù)文章第3段內(nèi)容可知答案。

4.選B。真正讓作者感到高興的是當(dāng)她在電話上聽到老朋友

Linda的聲音的時候。而讀到報紙的時候和寫信的時候都還只是在猜

測，那時還談不上高興。

5.選A。根據(jù)文章最后一段中的MinuteslaterIheardavoicethat

Iknewverymuch,evenafter40years可知，答案選A。

aboutthat,“answeredthepatientsadly."Yousee,Tmthatman'stailor!,,

根據(jù)以上短文內(nèi)容判斷正誤，正確的用“T”表示，錯誤的用

表示。

1.Thetailorwenttoseehisdoctorbecausehehasgotaheadache.

2.Thereisnothingseriouswiththetailor.

3.Amanwiththesametroubleasthetailorafewdaysago.

4.Thedoctorgavethemanandthetailorthesameadvice.

5.Thetailorwasworriedbecauseamancouldn'tpayhisbills.

【答案及解析】

1.選F。根據(jù)第1句Amanwenttoseehisdoctoroneday,because

hewassufferingfrompainsinhisstomach可知本題是錯誤的。

2.選T。根據(jù)…thereisnothingreallywrongwithyou(tailor)可矢口

裁縫的身體并沒有什么大礙，故可判斷此題與短文內(nèi)容相符。

3.選Fo根據(jù)句子Doyouknow,Ihadamanwiththesametrouble

asyouhereafewweeksago可知本題所敘述的時間與短文內(nèi)容不一

致，因此可判斷此題是錯誤的。

4.選T。根據(jù)...andIgavehimthesameadviceasIamgoingto

giveyou可知答案。

5.選T。通讀全文我們可知：上一個病人是擔(dān)心他自己不能付錢

給他的裁縫，而這個裁縫的病因卻是因?yàn)閾?dān)心那個人不能付錢給他

的。

5.Itisimportantforustokeepthebalanceofnature.

【答案及解析】

1.選To根據(jù)句子uKillthehawks,theofficialssaid.可知，此

題與短文內(nèi)容相符合，所以可判斷為正確。

2.選F。本題句意為“田鼠不僅吃小雞還吃農(nóng)民的莊稼”，但由句

子Fieldmicewereeatingupalotofthefarmers?grain.可知,田鼠只吃

莊稼，

3.選To由右J子Iftheanimalscan'tfindenoughplantstoeat,they

willstarveorhavetoleavetheplace.可知本題正確。

4.選F。由短文內(nèi)容可知，如果人們不破壞生態(tài)平衡，而順其自

然，則動物的數(shù)量不會有多大的改變。故本題與原文不一致，所以判

斷此題錯誤。

5.選T。從短文的最后一句Tokeepthebalanceofnatureis

importantforustoremember.我們知道：保持生態(tài)平衡對我們來說是

非常重要的。

根據(jù)以上短文內(nèi)容，然后從每題所給的四個選項(xiàng)中選擇最佳選

項(xiàng)。

1.WhydidTommy'sparentssendhimtoacatholicschool?

A.Becausehecouldeatwellthere.

5.Fromthepassage,wecaninferthat.

A.teachersshouldbestrictwiththeirstudents

B.mistakingmightdogoodsometimes

C.acatholicschoolismuchbetterthanotherones

D.nunsaregoodathelpingchildrenwiththeirmath

【答案及解析】

1.選C。文章第1段說Tommy數(shù)學(xué)學(xué)不好，其父母想盡了一切

辦法都不奏效，最后將他送進(jìn)了所天主教的教會學(xué)校。

2.選Do認(rèn)真閱讀第2段前面幾句話，并注意以下信息：Afterthe

firstday,littleTommycamehome...didn'tkisshismotherhello...was

hardatwork...withoutaword.可知答案應(yīng)選Do

3.選Ao根據(jù)文章大意和Finally,littleTommybroughthomehis

reportcard.Hequietlyputitonthetableandwentuptohisroomandhit

thebooks這個句子的語境，可知hitthebooks的意思是“用功

4.選BoTommy學(xué)習(xí)一直不用功，但自從進(jìn)了這所catholicschool

之后，情況就不一樣了——整天都發(fā)狠讀書，結(jié)果數(shù)學(xué)考試也得了Ao

這是為什么呢?文章在最后道出了其原因：Well,onthefirstdayof

school,whenIsawthatmannailed（釘）totheplussign（力口號）,Iknew

theyweren^joking.由此可知，Tommy是擔(dān)心學(xué)習(xí)不用功會被釘在十

字架上。

5.選BoTommy把themannailedtotheplussign誤解為“學(xué)習(xí)不

用功的結(jié)果”，從而一改自己原來不好學(xué)的不良習(xí)慣，很快就把數(shù)學(xué)

成績趕了上去?？梢?，誤解有時也可以起到好的效果。

2.Co根據(jù)ImmanuelNobelinventedlandmineandmadealotof

根據(jù)以上短文內(nèi)容，然后從每題所給的四個選項(xiàng)中選擇最佳選

項(xiàng)。

1.Whichofthefollowingistrue?

A.Theownerofthewalletfoundatwenty-dollarbillgone.

C.Thewriterdidn'treturnthewalletuntiltheownercameback.

D.Thewriterfellveryhappyaftershereturnedthewallet.

【答案及解析】

1.選C。由于作者并未打開錢包，更沒有從中取出什么，所以

說Nothinginthewalletwasmissingo

2.選B。根據(jù)文章最后一段中的Thinkingaboutitlater,Ibegan

wonderingwhetherIwouldhavebeenhonestifIhadknownwhatwasin

thewallet!IthoughtthatifIhadnowaytofindtheownerandnoone

returnedtogetit,Imightkeepit可排除選項(xiàng)C和D。比較選項(xiàng)A和B,

再結(jié)合文章大意，選B為佳。

3.選Bo此題可用排除法來做：根據(jù)第1段最后兩句Hetookout

atwenty-dollarbillandhandedittomeandIwasamazedatthis."A

rewardfbryourhonesty,hesaidandthenturnedandwalkedaway可知

選項(xiàng)A與文章內(nèi)容相符;選項(xiàng)B的意思是“作者直到失主返回來才將錢

包還給他”，這顯然與文章內(nèi)容相符;根據(jù)第2段最后一句話Thegood

feelingitgavemewasworthmorethananythingcouldbuy可矢口，選項(xiàng)D

也與文章內(nèi)容相符。

【答案及解析】

1.選B。根據(jù)第2段中的Paulanswered,t6Yes,mybrothergaveit

tomeforChristmas.”Theboywassurprised.可知答案為Bo

2.選A。Theurchin指著Paul的車對他的弟弟說：“And

somedayTmgoingtogiveyouonejustlikeWtheurchin希望

也能給他弟弟一輛車。

3.選D。Theurchin要Paul把車停在他家門前后，立即扶著他

殘疾的弟弟出來，讓他看看Paul的車，然后告訴弟弟他想為他做的

事，所以他只是想告訴他弟弟他的愿望。

4.選C。Theurchin在坐過Paul的車后沒有忘記弟弟，并且承

諾也要給弟弟買一輛車，可見他對弟弟有著一份深深的愛。答案選C,

而A、B、D三項(xiàng)與文章不符。

5.選C。通讀全文，我們不得不為Theurchin的行為所感動，

他是一個好哥哥。文章就是講述了他這樣的一位好哥哥，C選項(xiàng)最合

適。
