　　二、阅读理解

　　(2015·陕西卷)

　　When the dog named Judy spotted the first sheep in her life, she did what comes naturally. The four­year­old dog set off racing after the sheep across several fields and, being a city animal, lost both her sheep and her sense of direction. Then she ran along the edge of a cliff (悬崖) and fell 100 feet, bouncing off a rock into the sea.

　　Her owner Mike Holden panicked and called the coastguard of Cornwall, who turned up in seconds. Six volunteers slid down the cliff with the help of a rope but gave up all hope of finding her alive after a 90­minute search.

　　Three days later, a hurricane hit the coast near Cornwall. Mr. Holden returned home from his holiday upset and convinced his pet was dead. He comforted himself with the thought she had died in the most beautiful part of the country.

　　For the next two weeks, the Holdens were heartbroken. Then, one day, the phone rang and Steve Tregear, the coastguard of Cornwall, asked Holden if he would like his dog back.

　　A birdwatcher, armed with a telescope, found the pet sitting desperately on a rock. While he sounded the alarm, a student from Leeds climbed down the cliff to collect Judy.

　　The dog had initially been knocked unconscious (失去知觉的) but had survived by drinking water from a fresh stream at the base of the cliff. She may have fed on the body of a sheep which had also fallen over the edge. “The dog was very thin and hungry，” Steve Tregear said. “It was a very lucky dog. She survived because of a plentiful supply of fresh water，” he added.

　　It was, as Mr. Holden admitted, “a minor miracle (奇迹)”．

　　语篇解读　这是一篇记叙文。文章叙述了一只名叫Judy的狗，在追赶绵羊时掉落悬崖，掉进大海并遭遇飓风，但是它在恶劣的环境下顽强地生存下来的故事。

　　2．Who spotted Judy after the accident?

　　A. A birdwatcher.

　　B. A student from Leeds.

　　A. People like to travel with their pets.

　　B. Judy was taken to the fields for hunting.

　　C. Luck plays a vital role in Judy's survival.

　　A. Miracle of the Coastguard.

　　答案与解析　

　　语篇解读　本文是一则故事，主要讲述的是一个小矮人智破珠宝失窃案。

　　1．A　人们不知道他是谁，只知道他住在宫中。根据语境可知，此处选A项。

　　2．C　根据语境可知，宫中有贼，人们就要把珠宝藏好，故选C项，hide“隐藏”。

　　3．A　国王决定弄清楚这个贼是谁。find out“查明，弄清”，符合语境。pick out“挑选”；work out“制订出”；take out“带……出去”。第19空所在句中的“was found out”也是提示。

　　4．D　根据语境可知，此处表示国王向一个以才智著称的小矮人求助。patience“耐心”；difference“差异”；confidence“信心”；intelligence“智慧；才智”。

　　5．D　小矮人在宫中花了几天时间观察和倾听直到又有一起失窃案。故选D项，until“直到……为止”。

　　6．C　第二天早上小矮人把宫中所有的人召集到一间屋子里。下文第15空所在句中的“around the room”是提示。

　　7．B　审视了人们一上午，小矮人一句话也没说。故选B项。

　　8．C　午饭时小矮人开始逐个问他们对失窃的(stolen)珠宝都知道什么。

　　9．A　突然其中的一个园丁开始咳嗽，痛苦地打滚，最后躺在了地板上。最后一段第一句中的“the gardener”是提示。

　　10．A　参见上题解析。

　　11．D　小矮人微笑着解释说，他们刚刚吃的食物被下毒了。prepare“使……做好准备”；endanger“危及”；cook“烹饪”；poison“下毒”。本句后面的“for this poison”是提示。

　　12．A　这种毒药唯一的解药就藏在前天被偷走的红宝石中。

　　13．B　小矮人解释说他已经用一些假的红宝石把真正的红宝石换下来了。此题解题的关键是理解句中的genuine“真正的”的含义，不然就会误选A项。短语exchange...for...“把……换成……”。

　　14．C　毒药很快就要起作用了，只有那个贼能够救(save)他自己的命。

　　15．B　咳嗽声和呻吟声在屋子里传播开来，恐惧抓住了在场所有的人，除了一个仆人。present“在场的”，符合语境。

　　16．B　这位仆人立即跑到他藏珠宝(jewels)的地方，拿出那颗红宝石。

　　17．D　对于这个贼来说，他能打开红宝石并喝里面奇怪的液体救他自己的命是幸运的，故选D项。fortunately“幸运地”；especially“尤其”；particularly“特别”；deliberately“故意地”。
