五、阅读理解
Dear Joe,
I wrote you the letter to tell you about what the life used to be like when I was young. Life used to be very different then. We didn't have cell phones when we wanted to talk to our friends. We didn't have e-mails either, so we had to write letters.
When we traveled from town to town, we used to walk or ride horses or take a cart (马车). Later we had buses and very few people had cars. Air travel was a luxury and we used to dream of riding on an airplane but now it's common to travel by air.
Food is another big difference. There weren't any supermarkets. We used to grow our own food. We would exchange (交换) with people from other towns to get the things we didn't have. We didn't have a refrigerator (冰箱), so we kept things in a special room downstairs.
But the biggest difference is electricity. We didn't have any in our town! At night, we used to light candles when we wanted light and we burned coal (煤) or wood to keep warm. We didn't have television.
Life used to be very different, but we were happy.
Love,
Grandpa

【主旨大意】本文主要讲Joe的爷爷写信告诉Joe他过去的生活与现在的不同之处。
18.A 词义猜测题。根据下句“...we used to dream of riding on an airplane but now it's common to travel by air.”可知,“我们”曾经梦想乘飞机,但现在坐飞机旅行很常见了,所以可以推测过去坐飞机是一种奢侈品。
19.B 细节理解题。根据“There weren't any supermarkets.We used to grow our own food. We would exchange (交换) with people from other towns to get the things we didn't have. We didn't have a refrigerator (冰箱), so we kept things in a special room downstairs.”可知,那里没有超市,所以“我们”过去自己种粮食。“我们”会和其他城镇的人交换一些东西来获取“我们”没有的东西。“我们”没有冰箱,所以“我们”把东西放在地下一个特别的房间里,即作者不再种植他自己的食物。
20.B 细节理解题。根据“But the biggest difference is electricity. We didn't have any in our town! At night, we used to light candles when we wanted light and we burned coal (煤) or wood to keep warm.”可知,作者年轻时用蜡烛照明。
21.B 细节理解题。根据“Love, Grandpa”可知,这是一封爷爷写的信。
22.A 主旨大意题。根据全文可知主要讲Joe的爷爷写信告诉Joe他过去的生活是怎样的不同。
