2．Woman Uses Daughter's Key to"Steal"CarCharlie Vansant，a college student of Athens，Ohio，who reported that his car was stolen，got a surprise when he learned a woman had mistaken it for her daughte's car and taken it-using her key．
Kate Anderson became an accidental car thief when picking up her daughter's car near an Ohio University building last week．Anderson spotted the Toyota Camry（豐田凱美瑞）and used her daughter's key to unlock the car，start the engine and drive home-without realizing that the car wasn't her daughter's．
When Charlie Vansant leftclass a short time later，he found only an empty parking spot．He first assumed the car had been towed，but when the police couldn't find a record of it，they took a theft（偷竊） report．
The morning after Anderson took the car，her daughter discovered the Camry in the driveway wasn't her．Anderson said she was able to find Vansant's name on paperwork in the glove compartment and look up his phone number on the website for the university．
When Anderson told Charlie the car was in her driveway，"It sounded really suspicious at first，as she wanted to hold the thing for ransom （贖金），"said Vansant．He eventually went to the house with a police officer，where he was reunited with his car．According to the police report，the case was closed"because of mistaken car identity"，and Anderson wasn't charged．
Vansant seemed to blame the car company more than the"thief"．"Her key fit not only my lock，but my ignition（點(diǎn)火裝置）as well-so high-five for Toyota，I guess．"he said．

分析 Kate Anderson上周在俄亥俄州立大學(xué)用她女兒的車鑰匙開走了別人的車，在無意中竟然成為了"偷車賊"．車主Charlie Vansant認(rèn)為汽車公司應(yīng)該負(fù)責(zé)而不是"偷車賊"．
解答 27．C 詞義猜測題．根據(jù)第三段的Hefirst assumed the car had been towed，but when the police couldn't find arecord of it，they took a theft report．可知，他剛開始以為車被移開了，但是當(dāng)警察找不到移動(dòng)記錄的時(shí)候，他們做了一個(gè)偷竊記錄．所以Removed意為"移動(dòng)"，故選C．
28．B 細(xì)節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)第二段的usedher daughter's key to unlock the car，start the engine and drive home-withoutrealizing that the car wasn't her daughter's．可知她用她女兒的鑰匙打開車點(diǎn)火開車回到家，并沒有意識(shí)到那車不是她女兒的．所以她不是應(yīng)女兒的要求而偷車，故選B．
29．D 語句理解題．根據(jù)最后一段Vansantseemed to blame the car company more than the"thief"．"Her key fit not only my lock，but myignition（點(diǎn)火裝置）as well-so high-five for Toyota．I guess．"he said．可知，Vansant好像更責(zé)備汽車公司而不是"偷車賊"．"她的車鑰匙不僅可以打開我的車鎖，我猜還可以打開點(diǎn)火裝置"，他說到．所以他因車鑰匙的低質(zhì)量責(zé)備豐田公司．故選D．
30．D 推理判斷題．根據(jù)上文可知，Charlie不打算起訴Mrs．Anderson，但對豐田公司生產(chǎn)的車鑰匙質(zhì)量表示不滿，故下文可能會(huì)要求汽車公司對此情況作出解釋．故選D．
點(diǎn)評 本文是人物故事類閱讀，主要考查細(xì)節(jié)理解題和推理判斷題．在做細(xì)節(jié)理解題時(shí)，首先根據(jù)題目要求迅速在文章里找出相應(yīng)的段落、句子或短語．認(rèn)真比較選項(xiàng)和文中細(xì)節(jié)的區(qū)別，在做推理判斷題時(shí)不要以個(gè)人的主觀想象代替文章的事實(shí)，要根據(jù)文章事實(shí)進(jìn)行合乎邏輯的推理判斷．
