解析試題分析:本文是一篇故事,講述了作者因與某偵探要找的人長(zhǎng)得相似而被錯(cuò)誤跟蹤的有趣經(jīng)歷。一天當(dāng)作者走進(jìn)飯店就餐時(shí),無意中發(fā)現(xiàn)一個(gè)人在監(jiān)視他。當(dāng)那個(gè)人看到作者和服務(wù)員很熟悉時(shí),就到廚房里詢問,結(jié)果發(fā)現(xiàn)弄錯(cuò)了。
【小題1】A.動(dòng)詞辨析。 A. noticed 發(fā)現(xiàn);B. understood 理解;C. knew知道; D. recognized認(rèn)出。通讀全文可知,作者是因?yàn)殚L(zhǎng)相和逃犯相似而被偵探跟蹤,他與那個(gè)人并不認(rèn)識(shí),因此可排除C,D。B與全文語境不符。
【小題2】B.連詞辨析。 A. since自從;B. . as if 似乎,好像; C. though雖然; D. even if即使。由于那個(gè)人不停地往“我”這個(gè)方向看,給“我”的感覺是好像他認(rèn)識(shí)“我”,選B。
【小題3】B形容詞辨析。A. flat 扁平的;B. open 敞開的; C. cut 剪切的; D. fixed固定的。根據(jù)后文可知,那個(gè)人是偵探。而根據(jù)常識(shí)可知,偵探肯定是利用那張報(bào)紙作掩護(hù)的。由此可知,那張報(bào)紙是open的。另外,下文的…h(huán)e was ___ to read 也暗示我們,報(bào)紙是打開的。
【小題4】C動(dòng)詞辨析。A. hoping 希望;B. thinking思考;C. pretending假裝; D. continuing繼續(xù)。由于下文講到那個(gè)人是偵探,并且是跟蹤“我”來餐館的,所以他肯定不是在真讀報(bào),而是在利看報(bào)紙作掩護(hù),故填 C最佳。
【小題5】A動(dòng)詞辨析。 A. see 看到; B. find發(fā)現(xiàn);C. guess猜想;D. learn學(xué)習(xí)。作者在上文說,那個(gè)人是在假裝看報(bào),所以下文說的應(yīng)該是作者可以看出(see)他在盯著“我”看。
【小題6】D.名詞辨析。 A. menu菜單;B. bill 賬單;C. paper 報(bào)紙,論文;D. food食物。根據(jù)文章開頭說的…waiting for the food I had ordered to arrive 可知,此處應(yīng)填 food。
【小題7】C形容詞辨析。 A. direct 直接的;B. strange 奇怪的;C. familiar 熟悉的;D. funny滑稽的。文章開頭說sitting at my favorite table,既然有favorite table,說明經(jīng)常來這里。另外,下文又說all the waiters in the restaurant knew me,這說明我與服務(wù)員都很熟。由此可推知選C。
【小題8】A動(dòng)詞短語辨析。A. chatted with 與某人聊天;B. looked at 看;C. laughed at 嘲笑; D. talked about談?wù)。根?jù)此處的語境,只有chat with最佳。
【小題9】B名詞辨析。A. the waiter 服務(wù)員;B. time 時(shí)間;C. I 我;D. the dinner晚飯。從故事的發(fā)展看來,作者在餐館里待得時(shí)間越長(zhǎng),和服務(wù)員聊的越多,偵探越覺得有些奇怪,as time went on指隨著時(shí)間的推移。選B。
【小題10】C形容詞辨析。A. true 真實(shí)的;B. hopeful 有希望的;C. clear 清楚明白的;D. possible可能的。此處的it為形式主語,其后的that all the waiters…是主語從句,從上文內(nèi)容可以推測(cè)偵探認(rèn)為餐館里所有的服務(wù)員都認(rèn)識(shí)“我”這件事變得很明顯,故選clear。
【小題11】C名詞辨析。 A. restaurant 飯店;B. washroom 洗手間;C. kitchen 廚房;D. office辦公室。根據(jù)下文講到的He came into the kitchen and showed me a photo of the wanted man 可知此處應(yīng)填 kitchen。
【小題12】A動(dòng)詞辨析。 A. left 離開; B. acted行動(dòng);C. sat down 坐下;D. calmed down冷靜下來。那個(gè)人弄清真相,即“我”不是他要找的人)后,知道自己跟錯(cuò)對(duì)象了,所以付了賬離開(left)了。
【小題13】A動(dòng)詞辨析。A. wanted 想要;B. tried 嘗試;C. ordered 命令;D. wished希望。因?yàn)槟莻(gè)人開始一直看我,而后來從廚房出來后就看都沒看“我”一眼就離開了。根據(jù)常識(shí),“我”出于好奇肯定要問問這個(gè)人想要干什么。
【小題14】C動(dòng)詞辨析。A. met 見到;B. caught 逮。籆. followed跟隨;D. discovered發(fā)現(xiàn)。因?yàn)槟莻(gè)人是個(gè)偵探,他誤認(rèn)為作者是他要找的人,所以就跟蹤他到了餐館 。
【小題15】D動(dòng)詞辨析。A. was to beat 打; B. was dealing with 對(duì)付;C. was to meet 接見,迎接; D. was looking for尋找。從故事內(nèi)容可知偵探要找罪犯,只有l(wèi)ook for 在此符合語境。
【小題16】A名詞辨析。A.surprise 驚訝;B. care 在意; C. worry 擔(dān)心;D. regret遺憾。從情理可以推斷當(dāng)作者聽到餐館老板這樣一說,自然感到非常吃驚。
【小題17】A情態(tài)動(dòng)詞辨析。A. must必須,;B. can 能夠;C. need 需要;D. may可以。從偵探認(rèn)錯(cuò)人和下文說的 he looked very much like you,可知餐館里的人也認(rèn)為作者和罪犯非常相似,選A。句意:我必須說你和他長(zhǎng)得非常相似。
【小題18】B名詞辨析。 A. discovery發(fā)現(xiàn);B. mistake 錯(cuò)誤;C. decision 決定;D. fortune幸運(yùn),財(cái)富。從故事內(nèi)容可知偵探誤認(rèn)為作者是逃犯,所以是弄錯(cuò)了,make a mistake“弄錯(cuò),犯錯(cuò)誤”,選B。
【小題19】D詞義辨析。A. a pity遺憾;B. natural 自然的;C. a chance機(jī)會(huì);D. lucky幸運(yùn)的。從情理猜測(cè)聽了餐館老板的話,作者應(yīng)該感到非常慶幸(lucky)。因?yàn)橐皇窃谶@個(gè)大家都熟悉他的餐館里,他可能就遇上麻煩了。
【小題20】C副詞辨析。A. t hus 因此,從而;B. however 但是,然而;C. otherwise 否則,要不然;D. therefore 因此,所以。前句說it’s really lucky I came to a restaurant where I’m known,后句又說 I might have been in trouble,其間顯然只有用otherwise 來銜接才最通順。

Cooler temperatures, attractive colors, smaller crowds autumn is the perfect time for travel and tourism. Here, three places are listed as the best fall trip destinations. Don’t worry if you can’t go to these places. By reading this page, we hope to take you on grand tour and let you experience fun and culture around the world.
Cannstatter Volkfest, Stuttgart, Germany Stuttgart’s Cannstatter Volkfest is listed as the world’s second largest beer-drinking event–following Munich’s Oktoberfest. But it is considered Germany’s more authentic celebration of local heritage and, of course, beer. Started as an agricultural fair in 1818–a symbolic 24-meter-high “fruit column” pays homage to the past–the three-week festival (from September 23 to October 9 this year) features live music, a re-created Alpine village, and carnival(狂歡節(jié)) rides. In addition, Stuttgart is recognized as a global car capital. Both the Mercedes-Benz and Porsche museums are worth a visit. |
Churchill, Manitoba, Canada Here in the northern Canadian town at Hudson Bay, visitors can see the area’s most famous fall residents–polar bears. More than a thousand of the world’s largest land carnivores migrate through the “polar bear capital of the world” during October and November, when the first ice forms on the edge of Hudson Bay. The frozen conditions make it easier for hungry bears to hunt for seals (by walking instead of swimming). Under the snowy, winter weather, visitors can hardly have too many clothes to put on. Insulated boots, jackets, and gloves; layered clothing; thermal underwear; and woolen socks and hats are required. |
Dublin, Ireland The Ireland’s capital and largest city is a center for arts, entertainment, culture and commerce. With few tourists and lower temperatures, fall is the ideal season for walking the historic Georgian streets and cruising the River Liffey.[來源:學(xué)_科_網(wǎng)] Visitors can explore the city’s 20 square kilometers of public gardens, nature reserves, and parks, including St. Stephen’s Green, which borders Grafton Street, one of the world’s most expensive retail locations. Along the way, enjoy traditional, paper-wrapped fish and chips at Leo Burdock. Healthier eats will be on the menu on October 31, when more than 12,000 runners are expected for the National Lottery Dublin Marathon, named “the Friendly Marathon” for the affable crowds cheering there. |
A.care for fun and culture around the world |
B.have planned to go for traveling this autumn |
C.hate to have their holidays in other seasons |
D.have not ever been to Europe and America |
A.enjoy live music at the beer – drinking festival |
B.watch polar bears hunt seals |
C.taste traditional, paper – wrapped fish and clips |
D.win a prize in “the Friendly Marathon” |
A.Car exhibitions will be held for two months. |
B.It’s not necessary to take more clothes with you to Churehill, Martitoba |
C.The beer – drinking event in German dates from the eighteenth century |
D.Your favourite goods might be available in the expensive shop in Dublin |
A.economics | B.science | C.tourism | D.fashion |

Last winter, when I was heavily pregnant, I was visiting my sister and brother-in-law's house and had to park in a nearby parking lot because they didn't have accessible parking. The snow was extremely heavy and there was lots of ice on the ground --- not many people had ventured out that evening!
When I returned to my car around 11pm, I noticed that I was the only car left. Nervously, I hopped into the car and let it warm up a bit. When I finally tried to drive away, my wheels began to spin. I was stuck! I spun and spun and wondered what to do.
All of a sudden, in my rear view mirror, I saw four teen-aged boys approaching my car. They were walking side by side in a line and dressed a bit like gang members --- at least I thought that's what they looked like. My car was in a very isolated area and I began to panic. I was certain they were coming to my car to harm me. Terrified, I just froze. One of the young men tapped on my window and said "Excuse me, Ma'am, can we help you? You seem stuck." Still afraid and fearing the worst, I said "I am stuck." And the young man said "It's okay, stay in your car and we'll push you out of the snow." And they did!
When they finally got me out of the snow, they smiled and waved. I rolled down my window and thanked them, embarrassed to have judged them so poorly.

A.Because she was afraid of being harmed. |
B.Because she sat in her car for too long a time. |
C.Because she was cold indeed in that freezing evening. |
D.Because she knew they would rob her of the car. |
A.Impolite. | B.Ill-mannered. |
C.Unfriendly | D.Warm-hearted. |

D.The young men enjoyed pushing cars out of the snow. |
A.Every man has his faults |

When Mary Moore began her high school in 1951, her mother told her, “Be sure and take a typing course so when this show business thing doesn’t work out, you’ll have something to rely on.” Mary responded in typical teenage fashion. From that moment on, “the very last thing I ever thought about doing was taking a typing course,” she recalls.
The show business thing worked out, of course. In her career, Mary won many awards. Only recently, when she began to write Growing Up Again, did she regret ignoring her mom. “I don’t know how to use a computer,” she admits.
Unlike her 1995 autobiography, After All, her second book is less about life as an award-winning actress and more about living with diabetes (糖尿病). All the money from the book is intended for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF), an organization she serves as international chairman. “I felt there was a need for a book like this,” she says. “I didn’t want to lecture, but I wanted other diabetics to know that things get better when we’re self-controlled and do our part in managing the disease.”
But she hasn’t always practiced what she teaches. In her book, she describes that awful day, almost 40 years ago, when she received two pieces of life-changing news. First, she had lost the baby she was carrying, and second, tests showed that she had diabetes. In a childlike act, she left the hospital and treated herself to a box of doughnuts (甜甜圈). Years would pass before she realized she had to grow up-again-and take control of her diabetes, not let it control her. Only then did she kick her three-pack-a-day cigarette habit, overcome her addiction to alcohol, and begin to follow a balanced diet.
Although her disease has affected her eyesight and forced her to the sidelines of the dance floor, she refuses to fall into self-pity. “Everybody on earth can ask, ‘why me?’ about something or other,” she insists. “It doesn’t do any good. No one is immune (免疫的) to heartache, pain, and disappointments. Sometimes we can make things better by helping others. I’ve come to realize the importance of that as I’ve grown up this second time. I want to speak out and be as helpful as I can be.”
【小題1】Why did Mary feel regretful?
A.She didn’t achieve her ambition. |
B.She didn’t take care of her mother. |
C.She didn’t complete her high school. |
D.She didn’t follow her mother’s advice. |
A.had two books published |
B.received many career awards |
C.knew how to use a computer |
D.supported the JDRF by writing |
A.living with diabetes | B.successful show business |
C.service for an organization | D.remembrance of her mother |
A.lost control of herself | B.began a balanced diet |
C.tried to get a treatment | D.behaved in an adult way |
A.Mary feels pity for herself. |
B.Mary has recovered from her disease. |
C.Mary wants to help others as much as possible. |
D.Mary determines to go back to the dance floor. |

Two new studies suggest that modern running shoes could increase the risk of injuries to runners.
One study involved sixty-eight healthy young women and men who ran at least twenty-four kilometers a week. The runners were observed on a treadmill machine (跑步機(jī)). Sometimes they wore running shoes. Other times they ran barefoot (赤腳).
Researchers from the JKM Technologies Company in Virginia, the University of Virginia and the University of Colorado did the study.
They found that running shoes create more stress that could damage knees, hips and ankle joints than running barefoot. They observed that the effect was even greater than the effect reported earlier for walking in high heels.
The study appeared in the official scientific journal of The American Academy of Physical Medicine.
The other study appeared in the journal Nature. It compared runners in the United States and Kenya. The researchers were from Harvard University in Massachusetts, Moi University in Kenya and the University of Glasgow in Scotland.
They divided the runners into three groups. One group had always run shoeless. Another group had always run with shoes. And the third group had changed to shoeless running.
Runners who wear shoes usually come down heel first. That puts great force on the back of the foot. But the study found that barefoot runners generally land on the front or middle of their foot. That way they ease into their landing and avoid striking their heel.
Harvard’s Daniel Lieberman led the study. He says the way most running shoes are designed may explain why those who wear them land on their heels. The heel of the shoe is bigger and heavier than other parts of the shoe, so it would seem more likely to come down first. Also, the heel generally has thick material under it to soften landings.
But the researchers do not suggest that runners immediately start running barefoot. They say it takes some training. And there can be risks, like running when your feet are too cold to feel if you get injured.
The study was partly supported by Vibram, which makes a kind of footwear that it says is like running barefoot. The findings have gotten a lot of attention. But the researchers say there are many problems in the way the press has reported in their paper. So they have tried to explain their findings on a Harvard Website.
【小題1】What’s the main idea of the passage?
A.Walking in high heels could cause less serious effects than running barefoot. |
B.Two new discoveries encourage people to run in high heels. |
C.Running in shoes is partly good to runners. |
D.Two new studies prove running without shoes is beneficial to runners in most cases. |
A.Toes. | B.Hips. |
C.Feet. | D.Legs. |
A.The way that we run by landing on the front or middle of our foot could avoid damaging our heel. |
B.We should start running barefoot in no time. |
C.Running in modern running shoes could cause more serious effects than running in high heels. |
D.We won’t be injured if we run barefoot. |

At Denver there was an crowd of passengers into the coaches(車廂) on the eastbound B. & M. express. In one coach there sat a very pretty young woman dressed in elegant taste and surrounded by all the luxurious comforts of an experienced traveler. Among the newcomers were two young men, one of handsome presence with a bold, frank face expression and manner; the other a ruffled, glum-faced person, heavily built and roughly dressed. The two were handcuffed(拷上手銬) together.
As they passed down the aisle of the coach the only available seat offered was a reversed one facing the attractive young woman. Here the linked couple seated themselves. The young woman's glance fell upon them with a distant, swift disinterest; then with a lovely smile brightening her face and a tender pink tingeing(稍加染色,影響) her rounded cheeks, she held out a little gray-gloved hand. When she spoke her voice, full, sweet, and deliberate, proclaimed that its owner was accustomed to speak and be heard.
"Well, Mr. Easton, if you will make me speak first, I suppose I must. Don't you ever recognize old friends when you meet them in the West?"
The younger man aroused himself sharply at the sound of her voice, seemed to struggle with a slight embarrassment which he threw off instantly, and then clasped her fingers with his left hand.
"It's Miss Fairchild," he said, with a smile. "I'll ask you to excuse the other hand; "it's otherwise engaged just at present."
He slightly raised his right hand, bound at the wrist by the shining "bracelet" to the left one of his companion. The glad look in the girl's eyes slowly changed to a bewildered horror. The glow faded from her cheeks. Her lips parted in a vague(含糊,猶豫), relaxing distress. Easton, with a little laugh, as if amused, was about to speak again when the other forestalled him. The glum-faced man had been watching the girl's face expression with veiled glances from his keen, shrewd eyes.
"You'll excuse me for speaking, miss, but, I see you're acquainted with(認(rèn)識(shí),熟悉) the officer here. If you'll ask him to speak a word for me when we get to the pen(圍欄,監(jiān)獄) he'll do it, and it'll make things easier for me there. He's taking me to Leavenworth prison. It's seven years for cheating."
"Oh!" said the girl, with a deep breath and returning color. "So that is what you are doing out here? An officer!"
"My dear Miss Fairchild," said Easton, calmly, "I had to do something. Money has a way of taking wings with itself, and you know it takes money to keep step with our crowd in Washington. I saw this opening(通道) in the West,and___ well, an officer isn't quite as high a position as that of ambassador, but--"
"The ambassador," said the girl, warmly, "doesn't call any more. I needn't ever have done so. You ought to know that. And so now you are one of these brave Western heroes, and you ride and shoot and go into all kinds of dangers. That's different from the Washington life. You have been missed from the old crowd."
The girl's eyes, fascinated, went back, widening a little, to rest upon the glittering handcuffs.
"Don't you worry about them, miss," said the other man. "All officers handcuff themselves to their prisoners to keep them from getting away. Mr. Easton knows his business."
"Will we see you again soon in Washington?" asked the girl.
"Not soon, I think," said Easton. "My butterfly days are over, I fear."
"I love the West," said the girl irrelevantly. Her eyes were shining softly. She looked away out the car window. She began to speak truly and simply without the gloss of style and manner: "Mamma and I spent the summer in Denver. She went home a week ago because father was slightly ill. I could live and be happy in the West. I think the air here agrees with me. Money isn't everything. But people always misunderstand things and remain stupid--"
"Say, officer," shouted the glum-faced man. "This isn't quite fair. I'm needing a drink, and haven't had a smoke all day. Haven't you talked long enough? Take me in the smoker now, won't you? I'm half dead for a pipe."
The bound travelers rose to their feet, Easton with the same slow smile on his face.
"I can't deny a require for tobacco," he said, lightly. "It's the one friend of the unfortunate. Good-bye, Miss Fairchild. Duty calls, you know." He held out his hand for a farewell.
"It's too bad you are not going East," she said, reclothing herself with manner and style. "But you must go on to Leavenworth, I suppose?"
"Yes," said Easton, "I must go on to Leavenworth."
The two men sidled down the aisle into the smoker.
The two passengers in a seat near by had heard most of the conversation. Said one of them: "That officer is a good sort of man. Some of these Western fellows are all right."
"Pretty young to hold an office like that, isn't he?" asked the other.
"Young!" exclaimed the first speaker, "why--Oh! Didn't you catch on? Say--did you ever know an officer to handcuff a prisoner to his right hand?"

First Day at School
It was my first day at school in London and I was half-excited and half-frightened. On my way to school I wondered, what questions the other boys would ask me and practiced all the answers: "I am nine years old. I was born here but I haven't lived here since I was two. I was living in Farley. It's about thirty miles away. I came back to London two months ago." I also wondered if it was the rule for boys to fight strangers like me, but I was tall for my age. I hoped they would decide not to risk it.
No one took any notice of me before school. I stood in the center of the playground, expecting someone to say "hello", but no one spoke to me.
My teacher was called Mr. Jones. There were 42 boys in the class, so I didn't stand out there, either, until the first lesson of the afternoon. Mr. Jones was very fond of Charles Dickens, so he asked several boys if they knew Dickens' birthplace, but no one guessed right. A boy called Brian, the biggest in the class, said: "Timbuktu” and Mr. Jones went red in the face. Then he asked me. I said: "Portsmouth” and everyone stared at me because Mr. Jones said I was right. This didn't make me very popular, of course. “He thinks he's clever," I heard Brian say.
After that, we went out to the playground to play football. I was in Brian's team, and he obviously had Dickens in mind because he told me to go in goal. No one ever wanted to be the goalkeeper.
"He's big enough and useless enough;" Brian said when someone asked him why he had chosen me.
As the boy kicked the ball hard along the ground to my right, I threw myself down quickly and saved it. All my team crowded round me. My bare knees were grazed and bleeding. Brian took out a handkerchief and offered it to me.
"Do you want to join my gang (team)?" he said.
At the end of the day, I was no longer a stranger.
