D
Susan Williams went to a boarding school. Here is one of the letters she wrote to her parents from the school.

Dear Mom and Dad,
I'm afraid I have some very bad news for you, I have been very naughty and the school principal is very angry with me. She is going to write to you. You must come and take me away from here. She does not want me in the school any longer.
The trouble started last night when I was smoking a cigarette in bed. This is against the rules, of course. We are not supposed to smoke at all.
As I was smoking, I heard footsteps coming towards the room. I did not want a teacher to catch me smoking, so I threw the cigarette away. Unfortunately, the cigarette fell into the waste-paper basket, which caught, fire, there was a curtain near the waste-paper basket which caught fire, too. Soon the whole room was burning. The principal phoned for the fire department. The school is a long way from the town and by the time the fire department arrived, the whole school was in flames.
Many of the girls are in the hospital.
The principal says that the fire was all my fault and you must pay for fire damage. She will send you a bill for about a million dollars.
I am very sorry about this.
Much love,

Susan.

Answer 1

【答案】
（1）C
（2）C
（3）C
【解析】Susan Williams在寄宿制學(xué)校上學(xué)，因考試設(shè)有及格，她向父母寫信，先是說自己在學(xué)校因為違反規(guī)定油煙而引起一場火災(zāi)，通過這個編造的假故事來淡化自己考試不及格的事實。
（1） C 細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文意最后一段 None of the above is true， but I have failed my exams. I just want you to know how bad things could have been! 說明他寫這封的真正目的是告訴父母之間考試不及格。故C正確。
（2）C 細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段 The principal says that the fire was all my fault and you must pay for fire damage. She will send you a bill for about a million dollars.可知校長生 Susan 氣是因為學(xué)校著火是Susan的過錯。故C正確。
（3）C推理題。幵始的時候他編了一個故事，把情況說的非常嚴(yán)重，讓父母很擔(dān)心，最后再告訴父母不是真的，說出了原來的目的，這樣做是希望父母不要太生氣。故C正確。
