文章是對美國硬幣“便士”的基本情況介紹。

【1】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文中In 1792，the U.S. Mint（美國造幣局）was born. One of the first coins made was me!1792年，美國的造幣廠誕生了，最早的硬幣之一就是我！可知，第一枚美國硬幣誕生于1792年，故選A。

【2】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文中For a time，I had Lady Liberty（自由女神）on my face.有一段時間，我的臉上有自由女神。可知是自由女神在硬幣表面，故選B。

【3】詞義猜測題。slowly慢地；quietly安靜地；carefully仔細(xì)地；quickly快速地；根據(jù)文中句子.There is a small statue of Lincoln. Can you find it? It is inside the memorial!有一個林肯的小雕像，你能找到嗎？在紀(jì)念館里面！可知這個雕像是非常小的，需要仔細(xì)地觀察，所以前面說的應(yīng)該就是仔細(xì)看，故選C。

【4】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文中On my back，you could see wheat. Some people called me “the wheat penny.”在我背上，你可以看到小麥。有人叫我“小麥便士�！笨芍�?yàn)樵谟矌疟趁嬗行←湹膱D案，故選D。

細(xì)節(jié)理解題屬直接解答性問題，是閱讀理解題中最簡單的一種，多數(shù)屬中低難度的送分題。但由于中考所占的比例很大，應(yīng)特別引起注意。比如第一題，When were the first United States coins made?根據(jù)文中In 1792，the U.S. Mint（美國造幣局）was born. One of the first coins made was me!1792年，美國的造幣廠誕生了，最早的硬幣之一就是我！就可以得出答案。
