18.I was walking along the main street of a small seaside town in the north of England looking for somewhere to make a phone call.My car had broken down outside the town and I wanted to contact the AA Company.Low grey clouds were gathering across the sky and there was a cold damp wind blowing off the sea which nearly threw me off my feet every time I crossed one of the side streets.It had rained in the night and water was dropping from the bare trees that lined the street.I was glad that I was wearing a thick coat.
There was no sign of a call box,nor was there anyone at that early hour whom I could ask.I had thought I might find a shop open selling the Sunday papers or a milkman doing his rounds,but the town was completely dead.The only living thing I saw was a thin frightened cat outside a small restaurant.
Then suddenly I found what I was looking for.There was a small post office,and almost hidden from sight in a dark narrow street.Next to it was the town's only public call box,which badly needed a coat of paint.I hurried forward,but stopped in astonishment when I saw through the dirty glass that there was a man inside.He was fat,and was wearing a cheap blue plastic raincoat.I could not see his face and he didn't rais e his head at the sound of my footsteps.
Carefully,I remained standing a few feet away and lit a cigarette to wait for my turn.It was when I threw the dead match on the ground that I noticed something bright red trickling from under the box call door.
21.At what time was the story set?A
A.An early winter morning.       
B.A cold winter afternoon.
C.An early summer morning.       
D.A windy summer afternoon.
22.Which of the following words best describe the writer's impression of the town?
C   
A.Cold and frightening.           B.Dirty and crowded.
C.Empty and dead.                 D.Unusual and unpleasant.
23.The underlined word"trickling"in the last paragraph meansC..
A.rushing out suddenly             B.shining brightly
C.flowing slowly in drops         D.a(chǎn)ppearing slowly
24.Why didn't the man raise his head when the writer came near?D
A.He was annoyed at being seen by the writ er.
B.He was angry at being disturbed by the writer.
C.He was probably fast asleep.            
D.He was probably murdered.

分析 本文是對(duì)作者在一個(gè)寒冷的早上進(jìn)入一個(gè)死寂的城鎮(zhèn)看到的一些東西的描寫.

解答 21.A 細(xì)節(jié)理解題.從文章第二段"There was no sign of a call box,nor was there anyone at that early hour I could ask."可看出是early morning,又根據(jù)句子I was glad that I was wearing a thick coat.可見(jiàn)天氣很冷.所以答案選A.
22.C 細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)句子 but the town was completely dead.The only living thing I saw was a thin frightened cat outside a small restaurant,城市仿佛是死的,唯一的生命就是一只瘦的驚恐的貓,可以看出這是空的和死寂的,故答案選C.
23.C詞義猜測(cè)題.作者來(lái)到電話亭前并沒(méi)有因?yàn)槲业哪_步聲而讓里面的人抬起頭來(lái),that I noticed something bright red trickling from under the box call door.我注意到一些明亮的紅色…從電話亭的門下流出來(lái),可以推測(cè)這個(gè)人已經(jīng)死了,而且在流血,所以答案選C.
24.D推理判斷題.作者來(lái)到電話亭前并沒(méi)有因?yàn)槲业哪_步聲而讓里面的人抬起頭來(lái),that I noticed something bright red trickling from under the box call door.我注意到一些明亮的紅色…從電話亭的門下流出來(lái),可以推測(cè)這個(gè)人已經(jīng)死了,而且在流血,所以答案選D.

點(diǎn)評(píng) 故事類文章在閱讀過(guò)程中,我們一直在某個(gè)線索的引導(dǎo)下,隨著作者的思路去了解一個(gè)故事或一件事情的始末,因此會(huì)感到比較輕松.命題往往從故事的情節(jié)、人物或事件之間的關(guān)系、作者的意圖和態(tài)度、故事的前因和后果等方面入手,考查學(xué)生對(duì)細(xì)節(jié)的辨認(rèn)能力以及推理判斷能力. 閱讀故事類文章時(shí),應(yīng)注意把握主旨大意,弄清主要情節(jié),立足文章的內(nèi)容揣摩作者的態(tài)度和意圖,根據(jù)文章的情節(jié)展開(kāi)合理的想象,從而達(dá)到解題的目的.
