試題分析:本文講述的是在商店上班的杰克有一天在回家的路上遇到一個叫瑪麗的他曾經(jīng)的同學(xué)。他們相談甚歡,一起去了杰克的家,聊天到很晚。半夜十二點,女孩提出看時間,杰克和女孩都沒有手表。于是杰克想出來一個辦法——用腳使勁跺地板,住在他樓下的老奶奶生氣地沖他們喊:“半夜十二點,為何杰克你要在樓上跳?“他們才知道是半夜十二點。

1. is a twenty-year-old young man. Two years ago, when he finished middle school, he found work in a shop. 可以判定.句意:杰克是一個二十歲的年輕人。兩年前,當(dāng)他讀完高中,他在商店找了份工作。故選B

2. is very tired when he gets home. After a quick supper he goes to bed and soon falls asleep. His grandma who lives downstairs is satisfied with (滿意) him.可以推斷。句意:當(dāng)他回到家時,他感覺非常累。簡單的吃過一個晚飯后,他就上床睡覺并且很快的進入夢鄉(xiāng)。住在他樓下的奶奶對他很滿意。題目問的是:杰克樓下的奶奶為什么對他很滿意。據(jù)分析應(yīng)該不難推出:因為杰克每天回家生活的很簡單,沒有一點吵鬧。故選C.

3. they talked about their school, teachers, classmates and their future (未來).句意:他們談了許多有關(guān)他們學(xué)校,老師,同學(xué)的事情,并且展望了一下他們的未來。不難分析出他們是同班同學(xué)的關(guān)系。故選A.

4. twelve o'clock in the night, Jack. Why are you still jumping upstairs? 句意:半夜十二點了,杰克,你為什么還要在樓上跳? Jump再次可以視為stamp的同義詞,故選B.

5.

“Who does the cooking in your home?” I’m often asked by my colleagues. “My wife and I share it 50/50,” I usually say without hesitation.

It’s a lie, of course. We’re pretty much even(相等的)when it comes to the children and the elderly. But the paying of bills isn’t 50/50-my wife pays all sorts of household expenses, so I never even have to set eyes on them. And the cooking isn’t 50/50, either.

The truth is that I am the cook. On my recent 40th birthday, I received the following gifts from my children: a new pot, two mini bottles of truffle oil, a decorative salad-dressing pourer, and a juice-making machine. For a moment I longed for something more manly, a cricket bat, perhaps, and then had to admit that all these things would be useful for me.

It’s not that my wife can’t or doesn’t like to cook (she makes delicious Welsh cakes). Nor has it always been this way. In the early years of our marriage I’d be relaxing with a glass of wine while my wife prepared for dinner after work.

But at some point that changed and I became the cook. Ten years with my wife gave me the rewards-I can throw together a roast, and I can make much foreign food. But I have truly become a monster(怪物) in the kitchen, unable to keep myself away from cooking. “You have to add Dijon to the sauce; it brings out the taste of the cheese,” I volunteer, as my wife is cooking. “Quick, stir in the butter so the dish becomes delicious.”

Is it any wonder that my wife has given up coming into the kitchen while I find the whole process of chopping, mixing, and adding things deeply satisfying?

1.What do the writer and his wife probably share evenly at home?

a. Cooking in the kitchen.

b. Taking care of the children.

c. Paying household expenses.

d. Taking care of the elderly at home.

A. ab B. bc C. bd D. ac

2.The gifts that the writer received on his 40th birthday show that .

A. his children don’t know him at all

B. he is in charge of the cooking at home

C. he doesn’t get along well with his children

D. his children have made wrong choices

3.What do we know about the writer’s wife?

A. She can’t cook.

B. She doesn’t like cooking.

C. She used to cook for the family.

D. She only knows how to make Welsh cakes.

4.From Paragraph 5 we learn that the writer .

A. likes sticking his nose into other people’s business

B. doesn’t think his wife is good at cooking

C. studies very hard in order to cook well

D. enjoys cooking in the kitchen
