(建议用时45分钟)Ⅰ.阅读理解:00 p.m.he sent me a text message: “Urgent work to finish.Will be 20 minutes late.”
I had left my book in the office,so I spent the time thinking of my experiences of being late in China.On my first visit in 1985,punctuality was deeply rooted in the Chinese hearts.There were no traffic jams then.
As a teacher in Canada,I always insisted on punctuality.I would open the classroom door to a late student for the first time and the second,but not the third.During the six years I worked for CCTV,I had a Chinese friend whom I often saw at lunch time,or after work.We used to meet at the subway station nearby.He was always late by 10—20 minutes.To my question “You were busy?” he would surprisingly answerled.
In March 2015,I got permanent residence (永久居留权) in China.The ceremony was scheduled for 9:00 a.m.at the Public Security Bureau on the Second Ring Road.I told my driver I had to get there by 8:40 a.m.“No problemhad time to drop someone off at the airport before picking me up.I desperately waited for him.Then,to rub salt into my wound,he had to stop at the exit of a gas station.Finally,I entered the room at 9:07 a.m.—the last guest to arrive!1.What can we learn from the passage?
A.The author hates being late from the bottom of heart.
B.The author can do something to deal with unpunctuality.
C.The author is always late for work or any activities.
D.The author dislikes making friends with unpunctual persons.
2.If the author's student comes late for the third time,
.ide
D.he will shout at him/her loudly
3.Why didn't the author arrive at the ceremony on time?
A.Because there was a big traffic jam on the road.
B.Because the gas was running out.
C.Because the driver estimated the time wrongly.
D.Because his driver met a guest at the airport.
4.What attitude would the author like to express toward unpunctuality?
A.Speechless. B.Understandable.【解题导语】 本文主要通过一位在中国生活的外国人对几件不守时的生活事例的叙述透露出他的无奈和愤怒。1.解析:选A。推理判断题。根据文章内容可知作者总是想尽可能地准时但往往不能如愿由此可推断作者从心底里不喜欢迟到当然也不喜欢别人迟到。故A项。2.解析:选C。细节理解题。根据文章第三段第二句I would open the classroom door to a late student for the first time and the second可知作者会为一名迟到的学生开两次门但不会开第三次。由此可知。当学生第三次迟到时作者便不会让他/她进教室。故选C项。3.解析:选C。细节理解题。根据文章最后一段第五句But he thought he had time to drop someone off at the airport before picking me up.可知司机以为还有时间先送一位乘客去机场即司机错误地预估了时间从而使作者成为最后一个到达的客人。故选C项。4.解析:选Aspeechless意为“无语的”;understandable意为“可理解的”;satisfied意为“满意的”;surprised意为“惊讶的”。故选A项。完形填空
