【題目】閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個選項（A、B、C和D）中，選出最佳選項。 Imagine looking f or your lost dog. You step into a cave. But instead of the dog, you find beautiful cave paintings. You see paintings of horses, deer, and bison drawn in black, brown, red and yellow. Your first question would probably be“Who did this? ”
This is what happened to four French boys in 1940. They found the Lascaux caves. The paintings the boys discovered in those caves are about 17, 000 years old. They were drawn by the ancient people called Cro-Magnon(克魯馬努人).
Cro-Magnons looked much like people of today. They used tools, such as fishing nets. But their art was extremely good. The main cave at Lascaux is called Great Hall of Bulls, which has a picture of bulls and horses in many colours. The largest animal is 18 feet long. There are smaller animals, such as bison, stags and a bear. There is also a strange spotted two-horned(兩只角的)animal.
To the left of the main cave are the most famous paintings that are the drawings of animals in many different colours. One painting is called Little Horses. On the ceiling are horses and cows. The most unusual sight may be in the Shaft of the Dead Man where there is a rhinoceros, a carefully drawn dead man, an injured bison and a bird.
Why did Cro-Magnon artists do these beautiful drawings on cave walls? Did the drawings call upon some magic power? Did the Cro-Magnon people hope that the drawings would bring good luck? There is one thing the paintings seem to tell us. The Cro-Magnons were interested in the world. They looked at beauty and they understood it.
（1）The author uses the word“you”in Paragraph 1 to_________.
A.attract readers’ attention
B.make it clear that this is a true story
C.give readers good directions to find the caves
D.compare modern people wit h Cro-Magnon people
（2）Most of the drawings in the caves are about_________.
A.boys
B.tools
C.humans
D.animals
（3）What does the passage mainly tell us?
A.Cave paintings are beautiful.
B.Who found the beautiful cave paintings.
C.The Lascaux caves hold colourful ancient paintings.
D.Drawings of horses are on the walls of the Lascaux cav es.
（4）The passage is most probably taken from_________.
A.a research paper
B.a cultural magazine
C.a science newspaper
D.a travel guide

【答案】
（1）A
（2）D
（3）C
（4）B
【解析】（1）推理判斷題。第一段虛構(gòu)了一個以讀者為主人公的場景, 目的就是為了引起讀者的閱讀興趣。（2）細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三、四段對壁畫的描述可知, 洞內(nèi)的絕大多數(shù)壁畫是關(guān)于動物的。（3）主旨大意題。文章開頭指出了發(fā)現(xiàn)壁畫的過程, 接下來的內(nèi)容描述了這些壁畫。只有C項能夠全面概括全文內(nèi)容。A項范圍太廣, 且有些偏題; B、D兩項只是文中的細節(jié), 不能概括全文。（4）推理判斷題。本文主要介紹了法國Lascaux巖洞內(nèi)的壁畫。這些古老的壁畫本身就是寶貴的文化遺產(chǎn), 因此本文最有可能來自文化方面的雜志。

【題目】By the mid-nineteenth century, the term “icebox” had entered the American language, but ice was still only beginning to affect the diet of ordinary citizens in the United States. The ice trade grew with the growth of cities. Ice was used in hotels, pubs, and hospitals, and by some forward-looking city dealers in fresh meat, fresh fish, and butler. After the Civil War (1861-1865), as ice was used to refrigerate freight cars(貨車), it also came into household use. Even before 1880, half the ice sold in New York, Philadelphia, and Baltimore, and one-third of that sold in Boston and Chicago, went to families for their own use. This had become possible because a new household convenience, the icebox, a precursor（前身）of the modem refrigerator, had been invented.

Making an efficient icebox was not as easy as we might now suppose. In the early nineteenth century, the knowledge of the physics of heat, which was essential to a science of refrigeration, was undeveloped. The common belief that the best icebox was one that prevented the ice from melting was of course mistaken, for it was the melting of the ice that performed the cooling. Nevertheless, early efforts to economize ice included wrapping the ice in blankets, which kept the ice from doing its job. Not until near the end of the nineteenth century did inventors achieve the delicate balance of insulation(絕緣) and circulation needed for an efficient icebox.

But as early as 1803, an intelligent Maryland farmer, Thomas Moore, had been on the right track. He owned a farm about twenty miles outside the city of Washington, for which the village of Georgetown was the market center. When he used an icebox of his own design to transport his butter to market, he found that customers would pass up the rapidly melting butter of his competitors to pay an extra price for his butter, still fresh and hard in neat, one-pound bricks. One advantage of his icebox, Moore explained, was that fanners would no longer have to travel to market at night in order to keep their produce cool.

【1】When did the word “icebox” possibly become part of the American language?

A. In 1803. B. During the Civil War.

C. Sometime before 1850. D. Near the end of the 19th century.

【2】In the early 19th century, what made it difficult to develop an efficient icebox?

A. A lack of networks for the transportation of ice.

B. Lacking the knowledge of the physics of heat.

C. Not knowing how to prevent ice from melting quickly.

D. Competition among the owners of refrigerated freight cars.

【3】What does the underlined sentence in paragraph3 most probably mean?

A. Moore's farm was not far away from Washington.

B. Moore's farm was on the right of the road.

C. Moore was suitable for the job.

D. Moore's design was fairly successful.

【4】What's the passage mainly about?

A. The development of refrigeration.

B. The influence of ice on the diet.

C. The transportation of goods to market.

D. Sources of ice in the nineteenth century.

【題目】閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個選項（A、B、C或D）中，選出最佳選項。
Some time ago I discovered that one of my chairs had a broken leg. I didn't think there would be any difficulty in getting it mended, as there are a whole lot of antique（古董）shops near my home. So I left home one morning carrying the chair with me. I went into the first shop expecting a friendly reception. I was quite wrong. The man wouldn't even look at my chair.
The second shop, though slightly more polite, was just the same, and the third and the fourth—so I decided that my approach must be wrong.
I entered the fifth shop with a plan in my mind. I placed the chair on the floor and said to the shopkeeper, “Would you like to buy a chair?” “Twenty pounds,” I said. “OK,” he said. “I'll give you twenty pounds.” “It's got a slightly broken leg,” I said. “Yes, I saw that. It's nothing.”
Everything was going according to the plan and I was getting excited. “What will you do with it?” I asked. “Oh, it will be easy to sell once the repair is done.” “I'll buy it,” I said. “What do you mean? You've just sold it to me,” he said. “Yes, I know but I've changed my mind. I am sorry. I'll give you twenty-seven pounds for it.” “You must be crazy,” he said. Then, suddenly the penny dropped. “I know what you want. You want me to repair your chair.” “You're right,” I said. “And what would you have done if I had walked in and said, ‘Would you mend this chair for me?’” “I wouldn't have agreed to do it,” he said. “We don't do repairs, not enough money in it and too much trouble. But I’ll mend this for you. Shall we say for a fiver?” He was a very nice man and was greatly amused by the whole thing.
（1）We can learn from the text that in the first shop the writer.
A.was rather impolite
B.was warmly received
C.asked the shopkeeper to buy his chair
D.asked the shopkeeper to repair his chair
（2）The underlined word “approach” in the second paragraph means .
A.plan for dealing with things
B.decision to sell tings
C.idea of repairing things
D.way of doing things
（3）The expression “the penny dropped” in the last paragraph means the shopkeeper .
A.changed his mind
B.accepted the offer
C.saw the writer's purpose
D.decided to help the writer
（4）How much did the writer pay?
A.￡ 5.
B.￡ 7.
C.￡ 20.
D.￡ 27.
（5）From the text, we can learn that the writer was .
A.honest
B.careful
C.smart
D.funny
