　　Ⅳ.阅读理解

　　London is great.Rome and Paris were fine places，but I knew as soon as we landed in London that this was the finest of the three.

　　There are only two small things which I don’t like about London.First of all，everyone speaks English here.I had so much fun in Rome and Paris.There I could speak in foreign languages.In words，I made a lot of friends in that way，but here everybody can understand me.I don’t have any reason to start up a conversation with a stranger.And speaking of restaurants－that is the other problem with London.The food here is no good at all！I haven’t had one good meal in the three days we’ve been here.

　　Since you asked me to write to you about everything I learned on this trip，here is what I’ve learned about London.

　　London’s population of eleven million makes it the second largest city in the world.It is bigger than New York but not as big as Tokyo.London is twice the size of New York.It has an area of 620 square miles!

　　The Thames River runs right through the center of the city.Someone once called the Thames“liquid history”．It is a very good name.Dozens of armies have crossed it over the past few thousand years.One of the first was the army of Julius Caesar two thousand years ago.And most recently－Mr.and Mrs.Gill.

　　So far I have only had time to visit one neighborhood.It is called Bloomsbury.In fact there is a group of writers known as the Bloomsbury Group.It got its name because so many of them lived there.Virginia Woolf was one of them.I know how much you like her novels.

　　Baker Street is also part of Bloomsbury.Do you remember who once lived on Baker Street？When I asked Bob this question，he answered，“a man who baked bread，right？”Sherlock Holmes，of course，I won’t have time to find his address.Maybe you will when you come.

　　【解题导语】　本文是作者应朋友的要求，根据自己的所见所闻，描述了伦敦的概况。

　　1．We can learn from the first two paragraphs that________.

　　A．it is more difficult to start up a conversation in English in London than in any other languages

　　B．the writer had made a trip in Italy and France before she came to England

　　C．of all the meals the writer has had in London，only one she thinks is good enough

　　D．the writer hates to talk to strangers who can speak English

　　解析：选B。推理判断题。第一段中的“Rome and Paris were fine places”(罗马和巴黎都是好地方)表明作者到伦敦前去过罗马和巴黎，之后发表意见。

　　2．It seems that the writer________.

　　A．can speak English as a foreign language

　　B．does not like her mother language

　　C．does not speak French at all

　　D．can speak French as a foreign language

　　解析：选D。推理判断题。第二段中的“There I could speak in foreign language(在那里我可以用外语讲话)”表明作者可以在法国和意大利说外语，即不是她自己的第一语言(英语)。

　　3．Who do you think Mr.and Mrs.Gill are?

　　A．A famous general and his wife.

　　B．A famous American writer and his wife.

　　C．Two friends of the writer’s.

　　D．The writer and her husband.

　　解析：选D。推理判断题。作者戏称自己一家人为army (军队)，是一种调侃的方式。

　　4．Who once lived on Baker Street?

　　A．A man who baked bread.

　　B．Sherlock Holmes.

　　C．The former US Secretary of State.

　　D．A friend of the writer’s.

　　解析：选B。事实细节题。从最后一段中的“Sherlock Holmes，of course”可看出。

　　5．Where is the passage most probably taken from?

　　A．A letter.　B．A diary.

　　C．A guidebook.

　　D．A business report.

　　解析：选A。推理判断题。从第三段中的“Since you asked me to write to you about everything I learned on this trip，here is what I’ve learned about London.(既然你叫我写信告诉你所有我在这次旅行中所学的东西，这封信就是我了解到的伦敦的情况)”可看出。

　　Ⅴ.信息匹配

　　2．David is a new student at the university, whose major is English literature.He is a little shy so is hoping to join a club that can help him get to know new people and build his confidence.

　　3．Bonnie is majoring in drama and wants to be a scriptwriter when she graduates.She is interested in discovering new stories that she may one day be able to turn into movies.As her home is far from the university she is only free during the day to take part.
