Tuesday, Jan. 6th, 9:50 p.m.
We were sitting in our warm living room. The TV was on, and everything was peaceful. Suddenly the light went on and off for a few times and then went out completely. Then the rain started, and everything went black. We found the flashlight and some candles and went to bed.
Wednesday, Jan.7th, 7:30 a.m.
My first thought after waking up was that it was pretty cold in my bedroom. Clearly, the power (电力供应) didn’t come back. After looking out of the window, I felt even sadder: it was still raining heavily. The room was becoming colder and colder. We had no idea when the power would come back, so my wife started a fire in the fireplace.
Thursday, Jan.8th, 12:30 p.m.
The snow started. The poor trees now had to carry the heavy snow. The storm seemed to last (持续) and we had nothing to do but stay at home.
Friday, Jan.9th, 6:00 p.m.
Still no power. Even though we lit (点燃) a few candles, it was still difficult to do anything in the weak light. I was sitting near several candles, but I had trouble reading.
Saturday, Jan, 10th, 1:00 p.m.
The storm stopped this morning, and I drove my car to look for an open store. The trees along the roads were broken. On my way home, the power came back and people were very happy.
8. How did the writer feel when he found it was still raining heavily?
A. Angry. B. Sad. C. Scared. D. Happy.
9. Why did the writer say it was hard to do anything during the storm?
A. It was too cold in the room. B. The light kept going on and off.
C. The light of candles was too weak. D. The storm made people feel sad.
10. How long did the rainstorm last?
A. Two days. B. Less than two days.
C. More than three days. D. More than a week.
11. Where is the passage probably from?
A. A storybook. B. A diary.
C. A science magazine. D. A newspaper.
【答案】8. B 9. C 10. B 11. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是几篇日记,记录了几天的时间里,作者在一场风暴中的经历,包括家中停电、寒冷、暴雨、雪灾以及最终电力恢复。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据“After looking out of the window, I felt even sadder: it was still raining heavily.”可知,作者向窗外望去,雨还在下得很大,感到更加沮丧。故选B。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据“Even though we lit (点燃) a few candles, it was still difficult to do anything in the weak light.”可知,尽管点燃了几支蜡烛,但在微弱的光线下仍然很难做任何事情。故选C。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据在日记Tuesday, Jan.6th, 9:50 p.m.中,“Then the rain started, and everything went black. ”可知暴风雨从1月6日,周二晚上9:50开始下,然后根据日记Wednesday, Jan.7th, 7:30 a.m.中,“it was still raining heavily.”可知,暴风雨周三还在下,再根据在日记Thursday, Jan.8th, 12:30 p.m.中,“The snow started. The poor trees now had to carry the heavy snow.”以及“The storm seemed to last (持续) and we had nothing to do but stay at home.”,其中提到了开始下雪,“heavy snow”以及“The storm seemed to last...”,根据天气常识可知,由于温度越来越低,暴雨转变成暴雪,因此推测在周四下午12:30暴风雨(rainstorm)停止了,转而开始下暴风雪(snowstorm)了,而从周二晚上9:50到周四下午12:30在这期间,暴风雨(rainstorm)持续不超过两天,而题干中特意问的是rainstorm持续了多久,故时间不超过两天。故选B。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据文中的写作方式,可知文章以个人视角、按时间顺序详细记录了每天发生的事件,这是日记的特点。故选B。
D
Charlotte’s Web is a famous children’s book by American writer E. B. White. It tells the story of a spider (蜘蛛) called Charlotte and a pig called Wilbur.

There he meets Charlotte and they bring much laughter to each other. However, one day, they hear that people plan to kill Wilbur for food.
In order to save Wilbur, Charlotte is busy working in her web. She weaves (编织) some words such as “a famous terrific pig”. That seems unbelievable! Those words not only encourage (鼓励) Wilbur, but also make people interested in Wilbur because they haven’t seen such an unusual pig before. More and more people become Wilbur’s fans. As a result, Wilbur becomes safe, and nobody wants to kill him anymore. But Charlotte comes to the end of her life because of hard work. Wilbur then decides to take care of her children.

【13题详解】
词义猜测题。根据“Fern, an eight-year-old girl, saves Wilbur and takes good care of him. They live peacefully together until one day when Wilbur gets to Fern’s uncle’s farm.”可知,前文提到了Fern救了Wilbur,后文提到了平静地生活在一起,因此,they指的是“Fern和Wilbur”。故选A。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据“In order to save Wilbur, Charlotte is busy working in her web.”可知,她编了一些单词是为了救Wilbur,而不是为了好玩。故选A。

After looking out of the window, I felt even sadder: it was still raining heavily. The room was becoming colder and colder.

Saturday, Jan, 10th, 1:00 p.m.
The storm stopped this morning, and I drove my car to look for an open store. The trees along the roads were broken. On my way home, the power came back and people were very happy.

I opened my eyes and looked at the clock. “Oh, dear! It’s a quarter to seven already. I’ll be late for school again!” I jumped out of the bed and then hurried to the bus stop. A minute after I got on the bus, the bus stopped. The bus driver said, “I’m sorry, ladies and gentlemen. There’s something wrong with the bus. Please get off and wait for another one.” “I couldn’t wait. The school is not far.” I thought, and then I began to run. But before I got to school, it started to rain hard.
I reached the classroom, but I was wet shivering (发抖) with cold. The physics teacher was having his class. He was about fifty years old. All the students were a little afraid of him and so was I. I liked neither him nor his physics (物理) lessons. I opened the door. “I’m very sorry, Mr. Smith. I’m late again,” I said with a red face.
“It’s you again, Jim,” Mr. Smith said angrily. “I’ve told you not to be late, but you...” He suddenly stopped and looked at my wet clothes. He turned to the class and said, “I’m very sorry, boys and girls.” With these words he quickly took off his own jacket and handed it to me. “Now take off your wet coat and put on this one, or you’ll catch a cold,” he said kindly.
I went to my seat with Mr. Smith’s jacket on. It was a bit large for me, but I felt warm in it. I found, for the first time, physics was so interesting and how well I could understand it!
