【題目】China is a land of bicycles.At least it was back in 1992 when I traveled the country.Back then everyone seemed to be riding a bicycle.Millions of them,all black.Cars were rare.Yet since my arrival in Beijing last year, I’ve found the opposite is true.There are millions of cars.However, people still use their bicycles to get around.For many, it's the easiest and cheapest way to travel today.Bicycles also come in different colors—silver, green, red, blue,yellow, whatever you want.
It’s fun people biking.They rush quickly through crossroads, move skillfully through traffic,and ride even on sidewalks.Bicycles allow people the freedom to move about that cars just can’t provide.
Eager to be part of this aspect of Chinese culture,I decided to buy a bicycle.Great weather accompanied my great buy.I immediately jumped up on my bicycle seat and started home.
My first ride home was orderly.To be safe, I stayed with a“pack”of bikers while cars on the streets came running swiftly out of nowhere at times.I didn't want to get hit.So I took the ride carefully.
Crossing the streets was the biggest problem. It was a lot like crossing a major highway back in the United States.The streets here were wide,so crossing took time,skill and a little bit of luck.
I finally made it home.The feeling on the bicycle was amazing. The air hitting my face and going through my hair was wonderful.I was sitting on top of the world as I passed by places and people.Biking made me feel alive.
【1】According to the author, why are bicycles still popular in China today?
A. Because they are traditional and safe.
B. Because they are convenient and inexpensive.
C. Because they are colorful and available.
D. Because they are fast and environment friendly.
【2】How did the author feel about his street crossing?
A. It was boring. B. It was difficult.
C. It was lively. D. It was wonderful.
【3】Which of the following best describes the author’s biking experience?
A. The author enjoyed showing off his biking skills.
B. The author was annoyed by the air while riding.
C. The author was praised by the other bikers.
D. The author took great pleasure in biking.
【答案】
【1】B
【2】B
【3】D

試題分析:本文為記敘文。本文主要講的是:中國在過去是自行車的王國,而現(xiàn)在仍然有很多人喜歡騎自行車出行,因為這種交通方式方便、省錢。為了融入這種文化,“我”也買了一輛自行車。但是在回家途中,發(fā)現(xiàn)騎車過街是最大的問題,需要時間、技巧和一點兒運氣。但是騎行經(jīng)歷讓“我”覺得很愉快、很有趣。
【1】B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段中的For many,it’s the easiest and cheapest way to travel today.可知,自行車如今仍然很受歡迎,是因為它的便捷和經(jīng)濟(jì)。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段和倒數(shù)第三段的敘述可知,騎自行車并不安全,速度也不是很快,故A項和D項錯誤;文章雖然提到了自行車的顏色多種多樣,但這并不是它受歡迎的原因,故C項錯誤。
【2】B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段的敘述可知,騎車過街是最大的問題,需要時間、技巧和運氣,因此作者認(rèn)為騎車過街非常困難。其余選項均與本段內(nèi)容不符。
【3】D推理判斷題。由最后一段可知,空氣吹拂臉頰和頭發(fā)的感覺很美妙,騎行時就像坐在了世界的頂端,騎自行車使作者覺得充滿了活力。由此可判斷出,作者覺得騎自行車很有樂趣,故D項正確。A項意為“作者喜歡炫耀自己的騎行技術(shù)”;B項意為“作者很討厭騎行時的空氣”;C項意為“作者被其他騎行人員贊揚了”,均與文章內(nèi)容不符。
