Answer 1

分析 本文敘述了著名的美國作家歐亨利的事情以及他的寫作生涯．

解答 27．B 細節(jié)理解．根據(jù)文章5-9行Henry went to Texas，where he tried different jobs．He first worked on a newspaper，and then had a job in a bank，when some money went missing from the bank O．Henry was believed to have stolen it．Because of that，he was sent to prison．During the three years in prison，he learned to write short stories．After he got out of prison，he went to New York and continued writing可知A項的順序是正確的．
28．A  細節(jié)理解．根據(jù)文章最后2行People liked his stories，because simple as the tales were，they would finish with a sudden change at the end，to the reader's surprise．可知歐亨利的故事都有出人意料的結(jié)尾．故A正確．
29．D  細節(jié)理解．根據(jù)文章6，7行when some money went missing from the bank O．Henry was believed to have stolen it．可知是因為懷疑他偷了錢，所以才把他投入了監(jiān)獄．故A正確．
30．D  推理判斷．根據(jù)文章3，4行He did not go to school for very long，but he managed to teach himself everything he needed to know．可知他的自學(xué)能力很強．說明他善于自學(xué)．故D正確．
31．C  推理判斷．根據(jù)He wrote mostly about New York and the life of the poor there．可知他寫作的主要內(nèi)容都是紐約和紐約人的可憐生活．說明他的寫作材料就是這兩種．故C正確．
