Question

【題目】The story is told about two old people named Davide and Rosy Jackson. Both of them had very bad memory. For example, Rosy would forget to cook dinner, or Davide would show up for work on Sunday, thinking it was Monday. One winter they were to take a long plane trip. When they arrived at the airport, there were ten minutes left. In that situation anyone would get onto the plane right away, But Mr and Mrs Jackson did not do so. They went to buy some flight insurance (保險(xiǎn))first. After they put a two-pound note into a machine, their insurance policy came out. “Who would get the money if the plane crashed (墜毀), I wonder? ” asked Rosy. “My mother,of course.” Her husband replied, “we’ll post the policy to her, now quickly, give me a stamp, will you?” he said. “The plane is going to take off in another minutes.” Davide put the stamp on the envelope, dropped it into the postbox, and suddenly let out a cry. What do you suppose happened to him? He had posted their plane tickets to his mother!

【解析】這篇短文給我們講述了一對(duì)夫妻，他們記憶力不好，愛忘事。一次他們坐飛機(jī)去旅行，在機(jī)場(chǎng)買了一份保險(xiǎn)，丈夫想把保險(xiǎn)單郵寄給他的媽媽，但是匆忙中把飛機(jī)票郵寄走了。

【1】根據(jù)短文中“Who would get the money if the plane crashed (墜毀), I wonder? ” asked Rosy. “My mother,of course.” Her husband replied可知，Rosy和Davide是夫妻。這句話說(shuō)Rosy是Davide的姐妹是錯(cuò)誤的。

【2】根據(jù)短文的開頭The story is told about two old people named David and Rosy Jackson. Both of them had very bad memory可知，這篇短文講述的是兩個(gè)健忘的老人Davide和Rosy的故事，由此可知這句話是正確的。這句話中的forgetful跟原文had very bad memory是同義的。

【3】根據(jù)短文中After they put a two-pound note into a machine, their insurance policy came out.可知，當(dāng)他們往機(jī)器里放了兩英鎊之后，他們的保險(xiǎn)單就出來(lái)了，不是信封，故這句話是錯(cuò)誤的。

【4】根據(jù)短文中“My mother, of course.” Her husband replied, “we’ll post the policy to her可知，Davide想把保險(xiǎn)單郵寄給他的媽媽。由此可知這句話是正確的。

【5】根據(jù)短文中Davide put the stamp on the envelope, dropped it into the postbox, and suddenly let out a cry. What do you suppose happened to him? He had posted their plane tickets to his mother!可知，由于Davide記憶力不好，他把機(jī)票郵寄給了他的媽媽，由此可知這句話是對(duì)的。
