阅读理解限时训练与解析
A（5minutes）
I found out one time that doing a favor for someone could get you into a lot of trouble. I was in the eighth grade at the time, and we were having a final test. During the test, the girl sitting next to me whispered something, but I didn’t understand. So I leaned over her way and found out that she was trying to ask me if I had an extra pen. She showed me that hers was out of ink and would not write. I happened to have an extra one, so I took it out of my pocket and put it on her desk.
Later, after the test papers had been turned in, the teacher asked me to stay in the room when all the other students were dismissed（解散）. As soon as we were alone she began to talk to me about what it meant to grow up; she talked about how important it was to stand on your own two feet and be responsible (负责任) for your own acts. For a long time, she talked about honesty and emphasized（强调） the fact that when people do something dishonest, they are really cheating（欺骗） themselves. She made me promise that I would think seriously（认真地） about all the things she had said, and then she told me I could leave. I walked out of the room wondering why she had chosen to talk to me about all those things.
Later on, I found out that she thought I had cheated on the test. When she saw me lean over to talk to the girl next to me, it looked as if I was copying answers from the girl’s test paper. I tried to explain about the pen, but all she could say was it seemed very very strange to her that I hadn’t talked of anything about the pen the day she talked to me right after the test. Even if I tried to explain that I was just doing the girl a favor by letting her use my pen, I am sure she continued（继续） to believe that I had cheated on the test.

Some kids start to drink alcohol (酒精) at a young age. They think it is part of becoming an adult. They also think drinking is not that bad because so many people do it. They feel it is not as bad as taking drugs (毒品). It is easy for kids to get liquor （酒精饮料）by using fake identification (伪造证件).
Parents may start to notice a change in their child’s behavior if the child starts drinking. Kids who drink sometimes stop doing things they normally liked to do. They may keep telephone calls and meetings a secret and not want anybody to touch their things. They act moody (喜怒无常) and do not have the same eating and sleeping habits.
Parents need to stay involved (牵涉) in their kids’ lives. They should talk to their children about their problems to be aware of any changes.

Give the children good ideas on how to say “no” to drinking, even when they are at a party. Try not to overreact or panic (惊慌) if the child tries alcohol. How you handle it can affect their attitude.

【答案及解析】
A.
1. B 故事发生在考试进行期间，故选B。
2.C由“She showed me that hers was out of ink and would not write.”可知她的笔坏了。
3.D 由“Later, after the test papers had been turned in, the teacher asked me to stay in the room…”可知考完试后，老师让他留下（stay behind）。
4.A 由“. For a long time, she talked about honesty and emphasized（强调）…”可知老师反复强调的就是cheat的反面诚实（honesty）。
5.C 由最一段“Later on…”可知 。
B.
1. B 由第一段，用排除法。
2. D 由第二段“They may keep telephone calls and meetings a secret and not want anybody to touch their things.”可知。
3.由最后一句可知。
4.C 纵观全文，可以看出讲的是青少年喝酒的问题。
C.
1.C。细节理解题。根据文章第一段中的：You must speak so that they can hear you—loudly enough and clearly enough but without trying to shout or appearing to force yourself. 可以看出C项为正确答案，而A、B、D三项均与这句话意义不符，可排除。
2.B细节理解题。从文中的…where a large group of people will remain silent，可见B项为正确答案。 这里的silent与选项中的quiet同义，均意为“安静”。
3.D事实判断题。文章第一段告诉我们：在班上讲话不同于在家中谈话或闲聊，当有一大群人安静下来，等待你的讲话时，你会感到有点不自然，由此可见，D项为最佳选项。
4.C文章最后一句：You must take special care that you can be heard.你应特别注意你会被别人听到。很清楚地交代了答案应选C项。这里take special care意为“特别注意，特别重视”。
5.A纵观全文，不难得出这样一个结论：在不同的场合应采取不同的说话方式，A项正有此意，故选之。

主要讲述了电脑会在很多方面影响我们的生活。如：我们可以在网上购书和阅读，这样既节省纸张又方便快捷。有人说因此网络阅读将取代我们以前的阅读习惯。但还有人不这样认为，因为纸张看起来更温馨一些。对于购物也是一样，网上虽然可以买到你要的东西，但逛街也自有乐趣。
1. C 答案A和B分述了文章的两个部分的内容，而D只涉及了电脑的一点用途。所以只有C答案概括性强些。
2. D 答案在第二自然段的第三行和其后的文字中。
3. A 答案BCD的文字表述都太绝对了，以偏盖全。
4. C 本题的四个选项都是我们知道的电脑能做的事情，但只有C项是文中提到的。
E.
1.B 推理判断题，可用逻辑推断法来解。由第二则广告可知这则招聘广告10天有效，而发布广
告时间为3月19日，即有效期截止为3月29日，因此4月份来求职显然过了有效期。
2.A 细节判断题，可用直接就题找文法来解。原文第三则广告“RMB 25 yuan (for adults ) RMB 15
yuan (for students )”可知三张成年票款为25×3=75 （yuan) ，六张儿童票款为：15×6=90 (yuan) ，
共计票款为165yuan。
3.C 细节判断题，可用直接就题找文法来解。由第三则广告“Shanghai Shenhua Team VS Beijing Guo'an Team”可知C为错误内容。
