　　阅读下列短文, 从给的四个选项 (A、B、C和D) 中, 选出最佳选项。

　　Arnold followed Eugie down the slope, stealing, as his brother did, from one stock of wheat to another. Eugie paused before climbing through the wire fence that divided the wheatfield from the marshy pasture(牧场) around the lake. They were screened from the ducks by the trees along the lake’s edge.

　　“If you hit your duck, you want me to go in after it ?” Eugie said.

　　“If you want.” Arnold said.

　　Eugie lowered his eyelids, “You’d drown before you got it, the legs of yours are so weak.” He said contemptuously(轻蔑地)。

　　He shoveled the tub under the fence and, pressing down the centre wire, climbed through into the pasture.

　　Arnold pressed down the bottom wire, thrust a leg through and leaned forward to bring the other leg after. His rifle caught on the wire and he pulled at it. The air was rocked by the sound of the shot. Feeling foolish, he lifted his face, baring it to an expected shower of dersision(嘲弄)from his brother. But Eugie did not turn around.Instead, from his crouching position, he fell into his knees and then pitched forward onto his face. The ducks rose up crying from the lake, cleared the mountain background and beat away northward across the pale sky.

　　Amold squatted beside his brother. Eugie seemed to be climbing the earth, as if the earth ran up and down, and when he found he couldn’t scale it he lay still.

　　“Eugie?”

　　Then Arnold saw it, under the rolling hair at the back of the neck –- a solw rising of bright blood. It han an unpleasant movement, like that of a parasite(寄生虫)。

　　“Hey, Eugie,” he said again. He was feeling the same discomfort he had felt when he had watched Eugie sleeping; his brother didn’t known that he was lying face down in the pasture.

　　Again he said, “Hey, Eugie,” an anxious push in his voice. But Eugie was as still as the morning about them.

　　1. What does the underlined word “screened” in para 1 probably mean?

　　A. Separated

　　B. Stopped

　　C. Dragged

　　D. Hidden

　　答案解析：答案为D。本题为词义推断题。结合前四段可知，Eugie 和Arnold想去偷鸭子，可以推断，为了不被人发现，他们躲在隐蔽的地方，D选项“隐藏”最符合文意。 A选项意为 “分离”，B选项意为 “阻止”，C选项意为“拖、拉”，均不符合文意。

　　2. From Para 2 to Para 4,we know that

　　.

　　A. Eugie always laughed at Arnold.

　　B. Eugie would help Arnold hit the ducks.

　　C. Arnold begged Eugie to go in after the ducks.

　　D. Eugie was worried that Arnold might drown

　　答案解析：答案为A。本题为推理题。从Eugie的动作和语言 “Eugie lowered his eyelids, ‘You’d drown before you got it, the legs of yours are so weak.’He said contemptuously.” 可知，Eugie认为Arnold无法偷到鸭子，他可能会淹死，因为他的腿有问题。Eugie的语气轻蔑高傲，故可推断，Eugie总是嘲笑Arnold。故答案为A。

　　3. Why did Eugie lie still?

　　A. Arnold shot him intentionally.

　　B. Arnold killed him accidengtally.

　　C. He pretended to be unconscious.

　　D. He was ready to shoot some ducks.

　　答案解析：答案为B。本题为细节推理题。结合第六段 “...His rifle caught on the wire and he pulled at it. The air was rocked by the sound of the shot. Feeling foolish, he lifted his face...” 可知，Arnold的枪缠到了电线上，在他准备去拉枪的时候，空气被枪击的声音震动了，他觉得他真是笨； 又及第七段 “...Eugie seemed to be climbing the earth, as if the earth ran up and down, and when he found he couldn’t scale it he lay still.”可推知，Eugie的动作是中弹后的动作，他感到大地在摇晃，原来是Arnold 无意中开枪击中了Eugie，他已经死去，静静地躺着。故答案为B。

　　4. It can be inferred from the passage that

　　.

　　A. the relationship between Arnold and Eugie was not so good.

　　B. Arnold followed Eugie approaching the lake to steal ducks.

　　C. they were crouching forward to steal the wheat.

　　D. Eugie was always taking care of Arnold.

　　答案解析：答案为A。本题为推理题。结合第四段 “Eugie lowered his eyelids, ‘You’d drown before you got it, the legs of yours are so weak.’ He said contemptuously” 和后文的第六段 “Feeling foolish, he lifted his face, baring it to an expected shower of dersision from his brother.” 可知，Eugie 总是嘲笑 Arnold. 他们的关系应该不好。故A选项正确。

　　由第一段第一句话 “Arnold followed Eugie down the slope...”可知，B选项是文章提到的细节，无需推理。由第二段Eugie说. “If you hit your duck, you want me to go in after it ?” 可推断，他们去偷鸭子，不是麦子。由前面的分析知，Eugie 总是嘲笑 Arnold，不会照顾Arnold。综合上述分析，B、C、D均不选。

　　阅读下列四篇短文，从每小题后所给的A,B,C或D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

　　It's 5：00 in the morning when the alarm (闹钟) rings in my ears. I roll out of bed and walk blindly through the dark into the bathroom. I turn on the light and put on my glasses. The house is still as I walk downstairs while my husband and three kids sleep peacefully. Usually I go for a long run, but today I choose my favorite exercise DVD, Insanity. Sweat pours down my face and into my eyes. My heart races as I force my body to finish each movement. As I near the end of the exercise, I feel extremely tired, but a smile is on my face. It's not a smile because the DVD is over, but a smile of success from pushing my body to its extreme limit.

　　Some people enjoy shopping, smoking, food, work, or even chocolate. But I need exercise to get through each day. Some shake heads when they see me run through the town. Others get hurt when I refuse to try just one bite of their grandmother's chocolate cake. They raise their eyebrows, surprised by my “no thank you，” or by my choice to have a salad. Over the years, I have learned it's okay to just say “no”. I shouldn't feel sorry for refusing food that I don't want to eat.

　　So what drives me to roll out of bed at 5：00 a．m.？What gives me the reason to just say no to ice cream? Commitment. A commitment to change my life with a way that reduces daily anxiety, increases self­confidence and energy，extends life and above all improves my body shape.This is the point where a smile appears on my face as I look at myself in the mirror or try on my favorite pair of jeans that now fit just right.It's through commitment and sweat that I can make a difference within myself inside and out.

　　一个每天按时起床锻炼身体的女人，一个有着自己个性与喜好的女人，为了保持自己的体型，降低压力，提高自信，坚持着这种日复一日的锻炼，让自己每天都挂着笑容面对生活。

　　1．Why is there a smile on the author's face in the morning?

　　A．Because she sees her family sleeping peacefully.

　　B．Because she finishes her favorite exercise.

　　C．Because she enjoys the interesting DVD.

　　D．Because she feels a sense of achievement.

　　答案：D。细节判断题。根据第一个段落的最后一句话， 先排除C的说法；在本句中“a smile of success of pushing…”可以断定其实是一种成就感令她脸上挂着笑容。最大的干扰项可能会是B，但如果细读，会找到关键词“success”。

　　2．Which of the following is TRUE according to Paragraph 2?

　　A．She doesn't treat others politely.

　　B．She likes to make others surprised.

　　C．Others don't understand what she dose.

　　D．Others try to help her by offering her food.

　　答案：C。细节判断题。从本段的情节来看，选项A，D都相差甚远；而“I need exercise to get through each day”正是表明了作者的喜好，而不是像选项B说的喜欢出奇，故排除B。从“raised their eyebrows, surprised by...”来看，其实别人是感到奇怪而已。

　　3．What does the underlined word “commitment” in the last paragraph mean?

　　A．Good health.

　　B．Firm belief.

　　C．A strong power.

　　D．A regular habit.

　　答案：B。词意理解题。从全文的语境信息来看，这么多年，这么坚持，这么享受，而且从“sweat”一词身上也能找到提示，即：坚定的信念与汗水，故选项B最符合语境。

　　4．What can we learn about the author from the text?

　　A．She acts in a strange way.

　　B．She wants to look different from others.

　　C．She aims to develop a good body shape.

　　D．She has difficulty getting along with others.

　　答案：C。理解判断题。文章的最后一段中有一句话“above all improves my body shape”，从这句话中可以确定选项C的说法是正确的。
