四、阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)
第一节(共12小题;每小题2.5分,满分30分)
A
Mark Twain,the famous American writer,was once traveling in France.He went by train to Dijon.He was very tired and wanted to sleep.He therefore asked the conductor to wake him up when the train came to Dijon.
But first he explained he was a very heavy sleeper,“I may possibly protest(抗议)loudly when you try to wake me up,” he said to the conductor.“But don’t take any notice of what I say.Just put me off the train anyway.”
Then Mark Twain went to sleep.Later,when he woke up it was night time and the train had reached Paris already.He realized at once that the conductor had forgotten to wake him up at Dijon.He was so angry that he ran to the conductor and began to shout at him.
“I have never been so angry in my life,” Mark Twain said.
The conductor looked at him calmly(平静地).“You are not half so angry as the American whom I put off the train at Dijon,” he said.

A.he didn’t take Mark Twain’s words seriously
B.he forgot Mark Twain’s words when the train came to Dijon
C.he did not want to bear his protest
D.he mistook another American traveler for Mark Twain

答案:D
58The American whom the conductor put off the train 　　　.
A.wanted to get off at Dijon
B.wanted to get off at Paris
C.did not want to get off at Dijon
D.did not want to get off at Paris
解析:推理判断题。由短文最后一句话的“You are not half so angry as the American whom I put off the train at Dijon”可知那位乘客很生气,因此推测那位乘客不在那一站下车。

59Which of the following is TRUE
A.The conductor was a heavy sleeper.
B.Mark Twain must get off at Paris.
C.The conductor didn’t take Mark Twain’s words seriously.

答案:D
B
Twain was a famous American writer.The Adventures of Tom Sawyer is one of the best books that he ever wrote.Mark Twain was also a famous humorist.He liked to tell funny stories.Here is one of them:
Once Mark Twain and two friends were sitting in a restaurant.One friend had just returned from a trip to Vermont.He said that the air in the mountains of Vermont was so clear that the echo of a voice was five times as strong as the original voice.The other friend said that was nothing.In Colorado,where he lived,in many places the echo of a voice spoken in the morning came back in the afternoon.
Mark Twain laughed and said:
“The echoes you heard in Vermont and in Colorado are very unusual.But,in a small church in Hannibal,Missouri,where I was born,there is an echo which is more unusual than either of them.In that church,if you ask in a loud voice,‘Good morning!How are you ’ the echo will answer very clearly after a moment,‘Very well,thank you.And how are you ’”
60What kind of story is it
A.A historic tale. B.A fairy tale.

B.The second friend lived in Colorado.
C.Mark Twain and his friends were talking in a restaurant.
D.The air in the mountains of Vermont was very clear and cool.
解析:细节考查题。第二段第三句与D项的叙述不一致,而其他三个选项均能在原文中找到依据。
答案:D
62Mark Twain’s friends were 　　　.
A.not telling the truth
B.talking about their travels
C.sitting and drinking
D.discussing how echoes worked in different places
解析:推理判断题。由马克·吐温的回答可以知道他认为朋友说的话不真实。
答案:A
63It can be known from the passage that　　　.
A.Mark Twain was a man who liked to tell lies
B.Mark Twain’s friends had never heard a real echo
C.Mark Twain didn’t believe what his friends said
D.the echo in the church in Missouri was most unusual
解析:推理判断题。马克·吐温之所以在后来说了一个笑话,是因为他不相信前面他朋友说的话,所以就用一种幽默的方式表达自己的态度。
答案:C
C
Edward Estlin Cummings is a well-known poet for how he wrote his poems.He wrote his poems in a very unusual way.He wrote poems with capital letters in the middle of words like the title of a poem called, “The little horse neWly”.The “W”is a capital letter.He also signed his poems with lower case(小写的)letters in his name and so it was with writing “i”.
Edward was born on October 14, 1894 in Cambridge, Massachusetts.Edward’s father was also named Edward.Young Edward’s mother was named Rebecca.She loved to spend time with her children.She also taught Edward Jr.how to write poems.Edward’s sister was born in 1896 and her name was Elizabeth.Edward’s father was the first professor of Sociology at Harvard University.He later became the minister of one of Boston’s most respected Unitarian Churches.He was the one who taught his son to use his hands as well as his mind.The way Edward Jr.used his hands was by painting abstract(抽象的) art.
E.E.Cummings was a very smart boy who had many interests.Edward was 12 when he became a freshman in high school.He loved circuses(马戏), ballets, operas, and playing the piano.Edward graduated from Harvard in 1916, when he joined the army and had to fight in World War Ⅰ.He was sent to France where he drove an ambulance.He and his friend from Harvard were arrested because people thought they were German spies, and later they were set free.
E.E.Cummings wrote his first book, published in 1922, called The Enormous Room, and based on his war time experiences.He was a poet that made his own rules in poetry, in spite of which he is remembered as an excellent voice of 20th century poetry.
64From the passage we learn that　　　.
A.Edward was born in 1894 in Cambridge of England
B.Edward’s sister Elizabeth was two years older than him
C.Edward’s father moved to the US to work at Harvard
D.Edward’s mother was his teacher in writing poems
解析:细节理解题。由第二段第五句“She also taught Edward Jr.how to write poems.”可知,爱德华的妈妈在写诗方面是他的老师。
答案:D
65Which of the following is most probably the opinion of Edward’s father in educating him
A.Developing in two different aspects was important.
B.Interest development was of great importance.
C.Skills were less important than his son’s lessons.
D.One’s hands were as important as one’s mind.
解析:推理判断题。由第二段最后两句可知,爱德华的父亲在教育孩子方面的见解是:在教给孩子动脑的同时,也要教给孩子动手。
答案:A
66Why was E.E.Cummings arrested during the war
A.His enemies thought he was a spy.
B.Germans thought he was their enemy.
C.He was thought to be serving Germany.
D.He didn’t run fast, so that he was caught.

Christine was just a girl in one of my classes.I never knew much about her except for that she was strange.She didn’t talk many.Her hair was black and purple,and she worn black sports shoes and a black sweater,although in summer.She was,in fact,rather attractively,and she never seemed care what the rest of us thought about her.Like the rest of my classmate,I didn’t really want to get closest to her.It was only when we did their chemistry project together that I begin to understand why Christine dressed the way she did.
答案与解析:
第二句:去掉for
解析:except for后面不能接从句,应把for去掉,用except that...接从句。
第三句:many→much
解析:many是形容词,不能修饰动词。此处应用副词much修饰动词talk。
第四句:worn→wore
解析:worn是wear的过去分词,不能直接作谓语动词。本文的时态是一般过去时,因此此处应用wear的过去式wore。
第四句:although→even
解析:although是连词,其含义是“尽管”;even是副词,其含义是“即使”。此处应用even表示“即使在夏天”。
第五句:attractively→attractive
解析:本句中的in fact是插入语,因此此处应用形容词作表语。
第五句:在seemed后加to
解析:seem后接动词时,应接动词不定式的形式,即seem to do sth。
第六句:classmate→classmates
解析:the rest of后接名词复数形式。
第六句:closest→close
解析:get是系动词,其后接形容词。词组get close to表示“接近”,不必用close的最高级。
第七句:their→our
解析:句子的主语是we,因此其形容词性物主代词应用our。
第七句:begin→began
解析:讲述过去的事情应用一般过去时。
