【題目】The FBI is investigating the disappearance of a visiting Chinese scholar from a central Illinois university town as a kidnapping(綁架) as her whereabouts(下落) have remained unknown since Friday.

Zhang Yingying, 26, was last seen on June 9 near the north end of the campus of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign（UIUC）, wearing a charcoal-colored baseball cap, a pink and white top, jeans and white tennis shoes and carrying a black backpack. She boarded a Champaign-Urbana Mass Transit District bus and exited the West Springfield and North Mathews avenues at 1:52 pm local time（1852 GMT）, police said.

The FBI has labeled the case as a kidnapping but isn’t ruling out anything, said Campus police spokesman Patrick Wade. The suspect appears to be a white male who was in a car and stopped to talk to Zhang on Friday afternoon, the FBI said. Almost one month into a yearlong appointment at the UIUC campus, Zhang’s friends told police that she was heading to an apartment complex in Urbana to sign a lease(租約).

Security camera footage(連續(xù)鏡頭) on Monday released by university police showed that Zhang talked to the driver of a black Saturn Astra, about five blocks from where she got off a bus in Urbana on Friday afternoon. She entered the car shortly thereafter. Zhang has not been seen or heard from since then and attempts to contact her by phone remain unsuccessful. Authorities have asked the public to help identify that vehicle.

A massive search has been launched in Urbana in the US state of Illinois since Zhang’s disappearance. Police are interviewing with her colleagues, checking local hospitals and coordinating with ride-hailing(打車) companies as part of their investigative efforts.

In an interview with Xinhua through Wechat on Thursday, Zhang Ronggao, father of the missing visiting scholar from China’s Fujian Province, expressed gratitude to all the people involved in the search and asked US police to accelerate the search.

【1】Why did Zhang Yingying leave for an apartment complex?

A. To visit a friend there. B. To rent a place to live.

C. To apply for a part-time job. D. To go to her dormitory there.

【2】The possible meaning of the underlined phrase “rule out” in Para. 3 is “________”.

A. explain B. exclude

C. evaluate D. escape

【3】Which is the correct order of what Zhang Yingying did?

a. She entered the car shortly thereafter.

b. She talked to the driver of a black Saturn Astra.

c. She exited the West Springfield and North Mathews avenues.

d. She boarded a Champaign-Urbana Mass Transit District bus.

A. b→a→d→c B. c→b→a→d

C. d→c→b→a D. a→b→d→c

【4】What can be the best title for the news report?

A. Suspect appears to be a white male who was in a car

B. Authorities ask public to help identify suspect’s vehicle

C. Police are interviewing with Zhang Yingying’s colleagues

D. FBI investigates Chinese scholar’s disappearance since Friday as kidnapping

【答案】

【1】B

【2】B

【3】C

【4】D

【解析】這是一篇新聞報道。文章主要講述了FBI調(diào)查伊利諾斯大學校園中國訪問學者的失蹤事件。

【1】細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第三段的最后一句話Zhang’s friends told police that she was heading to an apartment complex in Urbana to sign a lease（租約）可知，張瑩瑩是去簽租約的。故選B。

【2】詞義猜測題。根據(jù)文章第三段第一句話The FBI has labeled the case as a kidnapping but isn’t ruling out anything, said Campus police spokesman Patrick Wade.可知，聯(lián)邦調(diào)查局已經(jīng)把此事定義為綁架，但是不排除其他可能性。與B項exclude（排除）意思相同，故選B。

【3】細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第二、三、四段的講述可知，C項順序正確。

【4】主旨大意題。文章為新聞報道，新聞體的文章的主旨大意題一般在第一段The FBI is investigating the disappearance of a visiting Chinese scholar from a central Illinois university town as a kidnapping（綁架）as her whereabouts（下落）have remained unknown since Friday.，故文章最好的題目是“FBI伊利諾斯大學校園中國訪問學者的失蹤事件”，選D。

此題中的第3小題為事實排序題。此類題目的解題策略為在文章中找到信息句，然后把事實按照時間順序排列。

根據(jù)文章第二段She boarded a Champaign-Urbana Mass Transit District bus and ---d

… exited the West Springfield and North Mathews avenues at 1:52 pm local time（1852 GMT）---c

再根據(jù)第四段Zhang talked to the driver of a black Saturn Astra, about five blocks from where she got off a bus in Urbana on Friday afternoon. ---b

She entered the car shortly thereafter.----a

所以C正確。
