He couldn’t play as 9 as before. From then on, every time we asked him to play, he would make up reasons to 10 down our request. However, we missed his performance so much. 11 , he agreed and said: “Okay, but remember, I can’t hold down on the strings (琴弦) the way I 12 to”.

She gently picked up the cat and wrapped it in her scarf to keep it warm. When she got home, her parents were surprised at first. “We 6 can’t keep it,” her father said. “Your mum and I are very busy. Taking care of a pet needs a lot of 7 , like time, money and energy” But Lily pleaded (恳求), “Please, Dad. We can 8 it together.

For a moment, I thought he might be 2 , but I could tell from the expression on his face that he was not. He was 3 . I felt like saying that it was ridiculous (可笑的) to 4 that out of all the millions of people in Chicago I could possibly have ever bumped into his friend. But 5 , I just smiled and reminded him that Chicago was a very 6 city. He nodded, and I thought he was going to be content (满足的) to drop the subject and talk about something else. But I was wrong. He was silent for a few minutes, and then he began to tell me all about his friend. His friend’s main 7 in life seemed to be tennis. He was an excellent tennis player, and he even had his own tennis court. There were a lot of people with swimming 8 , yet there were only two people with private tennis courts; his friend in Chicago was one of them. I told him that I knew several 9 like that, including my brother, who was a doctor in California. He admitted (承认) that maybe there were more private courts in the country than he 10 , but he did not know of any others. Then he asked me 11 my brother lived in California. When I said Sacramento, he said that was a coincidence (巧合) 12 his Chicago friend spent the summer in Sacramento last year and he lived next door to a 13 who had a tennis court in his backyard. I said I felt that really was a coincidence because my next-door neighbour had gone to Sacramento last summer and had hired (租用) the house next to my brother’s house. For a moment, we stared at each other, but we did not say anything. “Would your friend’s name happen to be Roland Kirkwood?” I asked finally. He 14 and said, “Yes. Would your brother’s name happen to be Dr Key Hunter?” It was my 15 to laugh. “Yes,” I replied. 1．A．managed B．happened C．tried D．wanted 2．A．expecting B．lying C．joking D．talking 3．A．funny B．serious C．careful D．disappointed 4．A．think B．find C．realize D．see 5．A．indeed B．actually C．instead D．exactly 6．A．famous B．interesting C．noisy D．big 7．A．problem B．interest C．choice D．work 8．A．suit B．habit C．pools D．river 9．A．people B．players C．strangers D．friends 10．A．recognized B．realized C．visited D．found 11．A．how B．whether C．when D．where 12．A．because B．if C．then D．though 13．A．doctor B．friend C．neighbour D．player 14．A．smiled B．laughed C．cried D．nodded 15．A．chance B．pleasure C．time D．turn 【答案】 1．B 2．C 3．B 4．A 5．C 6．D 7．B 8．C 9．A 10．B 11．D 12．A 13．A 14．B 15．D 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者在公交车上与一位陌生人交谈，陌生人询问作者是否认识自己在芝加哥的朋友，作者起初觉得这很荒谬，但后来发现自己的哥哥和陌生人的朋友都住在萨克拉门托，而且还有很多巧合，最后发现陌生人的朋友和自己的哥哥互相认识。 1．句意：他告诉我他在芝加哥有个好朋友，他想知道是否碰巧我认识他。 managed设法；happened碰巧；tried尝试；wanted想要。根据“he wondered if, by any chance, I ... to know him”可知，陌生人想知道作者是否碰巧认识他的朋友，“happen to do sth.”表示“碰巧做某事”。故选B。 2．句意：有那么一会儿，我以为他可能在开玩笑，但从他脸上的表情我可以看出他不是。 expecting期待；lying说谎；joking开玩笑；talking谈论。根据“but I could tell from the expression on his face that he was not”可知，作者起初以为陌生人在开玩笑，但从他的表情看出不是。故选C。 3．句意：他是认真的。 funny有趣的；serious严肃的，认真的；careful仔细的；disappointed失望的。根据“but I could tell from the expression on his face that he was not”可知，陌生人不是开玩笑，而是认真的。故选B。 4．句意：我觉得说在芝加哥数百万的人中，我可能会碰到他的朋友，这很荒谬。 think认为；find发现；realize意识到；see看见。根据“it was ridiculous (可笑的) to ... that out of all the millions of people in Chicago I could possibly have ever bumped into his friend”可知，作者认为在芝加哥那么多人中碰到陌生人的朋友这种想法很荒谬，“think that...”表示“认为……”。故选A。 5．句意：但我只是笑了笑，提醒他芝加哥是个很大的城市。 indeed确实；actually实际上；instead相反，而是；exactly确切地。根据“I just smiled and reminded him that Chicago was a very ... city”可知，作者没有直接表达自己的想法，而是微笑着提醒陌生人芝加哥很大，“instead”表示转折，符合语境。故选C。 6．句意：但我只是笑了笑，提醒他芝加哥是个很大的城市。 famous著名的；interesting有趣的；noisy嘈杂的；big大的。根据“out of all the millions of people in Chicago”可知，芝加哥人口众多，是个大城市。故选D。 7．句意：他朋友生活中的主要兴趣似乎是网球。 problem问题；interest兴趣；choice选择；work工作。根据“He was an excellent tennis player, and he even had his own tennis court”可知，陌生人的朋友是优秀的网球运动员，还有自己的网球场，说明他对网球很感兴趣，“main interest”表示“主要兴趣”。故选B。 8．句意：有很多人有游泳池，但只有两个人有私人网球场；他在芝加哥的朋友就是其中之一。 suit套装；habit习惯；pools池塘，泳池；river河流。根据“yet there were only two people with private tennis courts”可知，此处是将有私人网球场和有私人游泳池的人进行对比，“swimming pools”表示“游泳池”。故选C。 9．句意：我告诉他我认识几个这样的人，包括我哥哥，他是加利福尼亚的医生。 people人们；players运动员；strangers陌生人；friends朋友。根据“including my brother”可知，作者认识几个有私人网球场的人，“several people”表示“几个人”。故选A。 10．句意：他承认也许这个国家的私人网球场比他意识到的要多，但他不知道其他的。 recognized认出；realized意识到；visited参观；found发现。根据“maybe there were more private courts in the country than he ...”可知，陌生人承认自己之前没有意识到这个国家有这么多私人网球场。故选B。 11．句意：然后他问我哥哥住在加利福尼亚的什么地方。 how怎样；whether是否；when什么时候；where在哪里。根据“When I said Sacramento”可知，陌生人问作者哥哥住在加利福尼亚的什么地方。故选D。 12．句意：他说这是个巧合，因为他的芝加哥朋友去年夏天在萨克拉门托度过，他住在一个医生隔壁，那个医生后院有个网球场。 because因为；if如果；then然后；though虽然。根据“that was a coincidence (巧合) ... his Chicago friend spent the summer in Sacramento last year”可知，前后是因果关系，陌生人认为这是巧合是因为他的朋友去年夏天在萨克拉门托度过。故选A。 13．句意：他说这是个巧合，因为他的芝加哥朋友去年夏天在萨克拉门托度过，他住在一个医生隔壁，那个医生后院有个网球场。 doctor医生；friend朋友；neighbour邻居；player运动员。根据“including my brother, who was a doctor in California”和“Would your brother’s name happen to be Dr Key Hunter?”可知，陌生人的朋友住在医生隔壁，结合后文可知这个医生就是作者的哥哥。故选A。 14．句意：他笑着说：“是的。你哥哥的名字会是基·亨特医生吗？” smiled微笑；laughed大笑；cried哭；nodded点头。根据“It was my ... to laugh”可知，作者和陌生人都觉得这件事很巧，所以陌生人会大笑。故选B。 15．句意：轮到我笑了。 chance机会；pleasure愉快；time时间；turn轮流，次序。根据“Would your friend’s name happen to be Roland Kirkwood?”和“Yes.
