“There it is!” he said.
Harry moved quickly across the room. He stood and looked at the painting.
“A million dollars for this?” he thought. “I don’t understand it.”
But he took a knife from his coat. Then he took the painting very, very slowly from its frame. Harry went back across the room to the window, but he walked into a table. There was a beautiful blue glass vase on the table. It fell on the floor and broke into pieces. He ran across the pieces of glass to the window.?
Harry rented a room in Mrs Allen’s house. He went quietly up to his room and closed the door. In his room, Harry took the painting from his bag. He wrapped it with a newspaper and put the newspaper under his bed.
In the morning, Janey Allen was putting old bottles into a box. On TV, a reporter was at the Rivesville art gallery. He was talking about the lost painting and the broken glass vase. Janey glanced at the photo of the blue vase. ?
At that time Harry wasn’t in his room. He was talking on his telephone. Janey was looking for old newspapers. Every Friday morning, she took them from every room in the house. Then later, the newspaper recycling truck arrived.
Janey opened Harry’s door and looked into his room. She always took his old newspapers or bottles for recycling. She found a newspaper under Harry’s bed. She put the old newspapers into a black recycling box. Then she ran from the house and saw the truck. “Wait!” she said. And she quickly gave the box to one of the men.?

The truck having to stop, Harry managed to get close to it and reached the black recycling box. Having held the most expensive newspaper tightly under his arm, he got into a taxi immediately, not noticing a thin piece of glass drop. However, Janey witnessed what had happened. Driven by curiosity, she homed in on the piece of glass and remembered the photo of the blue vase, with her mouth wide open.?
Then Janey called the police on the telephone. She informed the police of where the taxi was heading and the doubtful piece of glass she had just found. “It’s exactly from the broken vase in the art gallery, I bet.” The policemen set off in no time. After thirty minutes or so, Harry, the hateful thief was caught when hiding the precious painting in a hut. Eventually, the painting was returned to the art gallery and Harry was punished for his greed. ?
Ⅴ.【文章大意】 本文为记叙文,叙述了在一场暴风雨引发房屋火灾之后,Sibson如何自救以及他的邻居Huggons如何帮他脱离险境的惊心动魄的故事。
1.A　此句句意:Sibson还不知道发生了什么事情就被一声雷鸣震到。此处before表示“还来不及……就……”。
2.D　这里是指“暴风雨直袭他的两层木屋”。暴风雨应该是从房屋上方袭来,故用over。
3.C　根据后文“他打开通向地下室的门”可以判断Sibson冲下楼梯的目的是“查看”到底发生了什么事情。
4.D　他打开地下室的门,火焰从里面喷出来。
5.A　这个房间有一个独立的室外楼梯,因此他当时感觉是“安全的”。
6.B　他正想通过那个楼梯出去的时候,被一堵火墙阻拦住了,故选B项。
7.B　根据前面three kilometres及后文so well hidden by trees可知,他的房子距离主干道有3千米,故用介词off。
8.C　距离主干道3千米且被树木遮蔽,因此呼救是不会有结果的(fruitless)。
9.A　突然他听到了像烟雾警报器之类的声音。strike one’s ears意为“传进某人的耳朵,某人突然听到”。
10.D　根据后文Huggons拨打911可知,他带上了他的电话和手电筒,故选D项。
11.A　Huggons应该是朝着他所听到的声音的那个方向走去。
12.B　接线员警告Huggons不要进入Sibson的房子,故选B项。
13.C　Huggons说他决不会听着Sibson的拼命叫喊而见死不救,应使用scream。
14.A　Huggons进入房子,但由于烟雾很大,他很快不得不跑回来“喘口气”。此处catch one’s breath意为“喘口气”。
15.D　在又一次尝试进入房子之后,Huggons放弃了,此处应使用attempt(尝试)。
16.B　由于烟雾很大,Huggons应该是绕到房子的后面去,故选B项。
17.C　风将烟雾吹得足够分散,他能够看到Sibson了。
18.D　他用手电筒往丛林中照。此处shine the flashlight意为“用手电筒照”。
19.C　Huggons将梯子搭在二楼阳台上,将Sibson拽下来。pull与费劲往外拽的场景吻合,故选C项。
20.D　根据后文Sibson说的话可知,他对Huggons心存感激,故选D项。
