Many people who work in London prefer to live outside it, and to go in to their offices or schools every day by train, car or bus, even though this means they have to get up early in the morning and reach home late in the evening.
One advantage of living outside London is that houses are cheaper. Even a small flat in London without a garden costs quite a lot to rent. With the same money, one can get a little house in the country with a garden of one’s own.
Then, in the country one can rest from the noise and hurry of the town. Even though one has to get up earlier and spend more time in trains or buses, one can sleep better at night and during weekends and on summer evenings, one can enjoy the fresh, clean air of the country. If one likes gardens, one can spend one’s free time digging, planting, watering and doing the hundred and one other jobs which are needed in a garden. Then, when the flowers and vegetables come up, one has the reward (回报) of one who has shared the secret of Nature.
Some people, however, take no interest in country things: for them, happiness lies in the town, with its cinemas and theatres, beautiful shops and busy streets, dance-halls and restaurants. Such people would feel that their life was not worth living if they had to live it outside London. An occasional walk in one of the parks and a fortnight’s (two weeks) visit to the sea every summer is all the country life they want: the rest they are quite prepared to leave to those who are glad to get away from London every night.
41. Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A. People who like country things prefer to live outside the city.
B. Many people who work in London prefer to live in the country.
C. Some people like to live inside London for their office work.
D. Even a little house in the country usually has a garden of its own.
42. One can use the same money for to buy a little house with a garden in the country.
A. getting a small flat with a garden B. having a small flat with a garden
C. renting a small flat without a garden D. buying a small flat without a garden
43. When the flowers and vegetables in the garden come up, those have the reward of one who has shared the secret of Nature.
A. who live in a small flat in the downtown areas
B. who have spent time working in the garden
C. who do not have a garden of their own
D. who have been to the sea for a fortnight

【41题详解】
细节理解题。最后一段的“Some people, however, take no interest in country things: for them, happiness lies in the town, with its cinemas and theatres, beautiful shops and busy streets, dance-halls and restaurants.(然而,有些人对乡村事物不感兴趣:对他们来说,幸福在于城镇,有电影院和剧院、美丽的商店和繁忙的街道、舞厅和餐馆)”可知,有些人喜欢住在伦敦,是因为那里有电影院和剧院、美丽的商店和繁忙的街道、舞厅和餐馆,而不是因为他们的工作,所以C选项描述错误。
【42题详解】
细节理解题。 根据第二段中“Even a small flat in London without a garden costs quite a lot to rent. With the same money, one can get a little house in the country with a garden of one's own(即使是伦敦一套没有花园的小公寓,租金也相当高。用同样的钱,你可以在乡下买一栋带花园的小房子)”可知,租一套没有花园的小公寓的钱可以用来在乡下买一栋带花园的小房子。
【43题详解】
细节理解题。 根据第三段中“If one likes gardens, one can spend one’s free time digging, planting, watering and doing the hundred and one other jobs which are needed in a garden. Then, when the flowers and vegetables come up, one has the reward (回报) of one who has shared the secret of Nature.(如果一个人喜欢花园,他可以把空闲时间花在挖掘、种植、浇水和做花园里需要的无数其他工作上。然后,当鲜花和蔬菜出现时,一个人会得到一个分享自然秘密的人的回报)”可知,那些花时间在花园里劳作的人才能获得回报。
【44题详解】
细节理解题。 根据最后一段中“Such people would feel that their life was not worth living if they had to live it outside London.(这些人会觉得如果不得不住在伦敦以外,他们的生活就不值得过)”可知,他们会觉得生活毫无意义。
【45题详解】
词句猜测题。 根据最后一段中“An occasional walk in one of the parks and a fortnight’s (two weeks) visit to the sea every summer is all the country life they want: the rest they are quite prepared to leave to those who are glad to get away from London every night.(每年夏天,偶尔在公园散步,两周(两周)的海边之旅,就是他们想要的乡村生活:那些 rest,他们准备留给那些每天晚上都愿意离开伦敦的人)”可知,rest指的是除偶尔公园散步和每年两周海边度假之外的其余乡村生活。

One summer evening I was sitting by the open window, reading a good science story book. I was so interested in the story I was reading that I did not notice that it was getting dark. When I realized it was too dark for me to read easily, I put the book down and get up to turn on the light. Just then I heard someone crying: “Help! Help!” It seemed to come from the trees at the other end of the yard. I looked out but it was now too dark to see anything clearly. Almost immediately I heard the cry again. It sounded like a child, but I could not imagine what anybody would be doing in our backyard, unless one of the neighbourhood children had climbed a tree and had not been able to get down.
I decided that I ought to go out and have a look in the yard, just in case someone was in trouble. I got a flashlight and a stick, I thought it might be useful. Armed with these, I went out into the yard. Once again I heard the cry and this time there was no doubt that it came from the trees at the far end of the yard. “Who’s there?” I called out as I walked across the yard toward the trees. But there was no answer. With the help of my flashlight, I searched all over that end of the yard, including the branches of the trees. There was no sign of anybody or anything. I came to the conclusion that my imagination was playing tricks to me, probably because of the story I was reading about strange creatures on another planet.
Feeling rather foolish about hunting around in my own backyard with a baseball bat, I went back into the house and put the bat and flashlight away. I had just sat down to read my book again when I was frightened by the cry of “Help! Help!” This time from right behind me. I dropped my book and jumped up. There, sitting on the table was a large green and red bird. It was my neighbour’s parrot! While I was out in the yard, the parrot must have seen the light in the living room and come in through the open window.
46. One summer evening the writer was reading ________.
A. with the window open B. in the open air
C. in the back yard D. with the window closed
47. The cry the writer first heard seemed ________.
A. to come from the trees in the backyard

D. to come from far away
48. The writer searched the yard carefully ________.
A. and found a child
B. but found nobody and nothing
C. and found something called imagination
D. and found some strange creatures from another planet
49. The book that the writer was reading was ________.

D. a book on how to play tricks
50. The cries were made by ________.
A. the writer’s imagination B. the neighbour’s parrot

【答案】46. A 47. A 48. B 49. C 50. B
【解析】

【46题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“One summer evening I was sitting by the open window, reading a good science story book.(一个夏天的傍晚,我坐在开着的窗户旁,读着一本好看的科幻故事书)”可知,作者读书时窗户是开着的。

细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Just then I heard someone crying: “Help! Help!” It seemed to come from the trees at the other end of the yard.(就在那时,我听到有人喊:“救命!救命!”声音似乎是从院子另一头的树上传来的)”可知,作者第一次听到的呼救声似乎来自后院的树上。
【48题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“I came to the conclusion that my imagination was playing tricks to me, probably because of the story I was reading about strange creatures on another planet.(在手电筒的帮助下,我搜遍了院子的那一端,包括树枝。没有任何人或任何东西的迹象)”可知,作者仔细搜查了院子,但什么也没有发现。
【49题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“I came to the conclusion that my imagination was playing tricks to me, probably because of the story I was reading about strange creatures on another planet.(我得出结论,是我的想象力在捉弄我,这大概是因为我正在读那篇讲述另一星球上奇怪生物的故事)”可知,作者当时正在读的是一本关于外星生物的故事书。
【50题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“There, sitting on the table was a large green and red bird. It was my neighbour’s parrot!(桌子上停着一只红绿相间的大鸟。那是我邻居家的鹦鹉!)”可知,发出“救命”呼喊声的其实是邻居家的鹦鹉。

阅读短文,并按照题目要求用英语回答问题。
For the past six years, Chris has been running after a dream. That dream has taken him to the top of the world’s highest mountains. On that day, December24, 2011, Chris became the youngest person to have climbed the tallest mountain on each of the seven continents. These mountains are known as the “seven summits”.
It all began when Chris was 9 years old. He became fascinated by a school painting that showed the seven summits. Chris had never climbed a mountain before. But he told his dad that he wanted to climb them ALL!
His dad, an experienced mountaineer, was very supportive. In fact, his parents trained him in top-level mountaineering and climbed every mountain with him. As part of “Team Chris”, they also became the first family to climb the seven summits together.
Training to climb the highest mountains in the world involves a lot of hard work. But Chris has always been very physically active—it’s just the way he lives. When others thought he was too young to climb Mount Everest, the world’s highest mountain, he just became more determined. He recalls thinking at the time, “All you naysayers, I’ll show you.” He sure did. When he was 13, he became the youngest person to scale Mount Everest.
He encourages kids to “find your Everest.” That doesn’t mean he wants everyone to start mountain climbing. What he means is to find something you love doing and set goals to reach it.

【52题详解】
考查细节理解。根据文章第二段“It all began when Chris was 9 years old. He became fascinated by a school painting that showed the seven summits.(这一切都始于克里斯9岁的时候。他迷上了学校的一幅画,画的是七座山峰。)”可知,克里斯有这个梦想是因为他被学校的一幅画迷住了。故答案为(Because) he was fascinated by a school painting.
【53题详解】
考查细节理解。根据文章第三段“In fact, his parents trained him in top-level mountaineering and climbed every mountain with him.(事实上,他的父母训练他攀登顶级山峰,和他一起攀登每一座山。)”可知,他的父母通过训练他攀登顶级山峰,和他一起攀登每一座山来支持他的想法。故答案为They trained him in mountaineering and climbed every mountain with him.
【54题详解】
考查推理判断。根据文章第四段“When others thought he was too young to climb Mount Everest, the world’s highest mountain, he just became more determined. He recalls thinking at the time, “All you naysayers, I’ll show you.” He sure did.(当别人认为他还太年轻,不能爬世界最高峰珠穆朗玛峰时,他只是变得更坚定了。他回忆起当时的想法:“你们这些唱反调的人,我会让你们看看。”他当然也做到了。)”可知,划线部分展示了Chris有决心并且不轻言放弃。故答案为It shows Chris’s determination. / It shows Chris will never give up.

Many people who work in London prefer to live outside it, and to go in to their offices or schools every day by train, car or bus, even though this means they have to get up early in the morning and reach home late in the evening.
One advantage of living outside London is that houses are cheaper. Even a small flat in London without a garden costs quite a lot to rent. With the same money, one can get a little house in the country with a garden of one’s own.
Then, in the country one can rest from the noise and hurry of the town. Even though one has to get up earlier and spend more time in trains or buses, one can sleep better at night and during weekends and on summer evenings, one can enjoy the fresh, clean air of the country. If one likes gardens, one can spend one’s free time digging, planting, watering and doing the hundred and one other jobs which are needed in a garden. Then, when the flowers and vegetables come up, one has the reward (回报) of one who has shared the secret of Nature.
Some people, however, take no interest in country things: for them, happiness lies in the town, with its cinemas and theatres, beautiful shops and busy streets, dance-halls and restaurants. Such people would feel that their life was not worth living if they had to live it outside London. An occasional walk in one of the parks and a fortnight’s (two weeks) visit to the sea every summer is all the country life they want: the rest they are quite prepared to leave to those who are glad to get away from London every night.
41. Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A. People who like country things prefer to live outside the city.
B. Many people who work in London prefer to live in the country.
C. Some people like to live inside London for their office work.
D. Even a little house in the country usually has a garden of its own.
42. One can use the same money for to buy a little house with a garden in the country.
A. getting a small flat with a garden B. having a small flat with a garden
C. renting a small flat without a garden D. buying a small flat without a garden
43. When the flowers and vegetables in the garden come up, those have the reward of one who has shared the secret of Nature.
A. who live in a small flat in the downtown areas
B. who have spent time working in the garden
C. who do not have a garden of their own
D. who have been to the sea for a fortnight
44. People who think happiness lies in the town would feel that if they had to live it outside London.
A. their life was meaningless B. their life was valuable
C. they didn’t deserve a happy life D. they lived their life to the fullest
45. The underlined word rest in the last paragraph refers to ________.
A. the rest time B. the rest of the people
C. the rest of the country life D. the rest of the parks and of the sea

One summer evening I was sitting by the open window, reading a good science story book. I was so interested in the story I was reading that I did not notice that it was getting dark. When I realized it was too dark for me to read easily, I put the book down and get up to turn on the light. Just then I heard someone crying: “Help! Help!” It seemed to come from the trees at the other end of the yard. I looked out but it was now too dark to see anything clearly. Almost immediately I heard the cry again. It sounded like a child, but I could not imagine what anybody would be doing in our backyard, unless one of the neighbourhood children had climbed a tree and had not been able to get down.
I decided that I ought to go out and have a look in the yard, just in case someone was in trouble. I got a flashlight and a stick, I thought it might be useful. Armed with these, I went out into the yard. Once again I heard the cry and this time there was no doubt that it came from the trees at the far end of the yard. “Who’s there?” I called out as I walked across the yard toward the trees. But there was no answer. With the help of my flashlight, I searched all over that end of the yard, including the branches of the trees. There was no sign of anybody or anything. I came to the conclusion that my imagination was playing tricks to me, probably because of the story I was reading about strange creatures on another planet.
Feeling rather foolish about hunting around in my own backyard with a baseball bat, I went back into the house and put the bat and flashlight away. I had just sat down to read my book again when I was frightened by the cry of “Help! Help!” This time from right behind me. I dropped my book and jumped up. There, sitting on the table was a large green and red bird. It was my neighbour’s parrot! While I was out in the yard, the parrot must have seen the light in the living room and come in through the open window.

For the past six years, Chris has been running after a dream. That dream has taken him to the top of the world’s highest mountains. On that day, December24, 2011, Chris became the youngest person to have climbed the tallest mountain on each of the seven continents. These mountains are known as the “seven summits”.
It all began when Chris was 9 years old. He became fascinated by a school painting that showed the seven summits. Chris had never climbed a mountain before. But he told his dad that he wanted to climb them ALL!
His dad, an experienced mountaineer, was very supportive. In fact, his parents trained him in top-level mountaineering and climbed every mountain with him. As part of “Team Chris”, they also became the first family to climb the seven summits together.
Training to climb the highest mountains in the world involves a lot of hard work. But Chris has always been very physically active—it’s just the way he lives. When others thought he was too young to climb Mount Everest, the world’s highest mountain, he just became more determined. He recalls thinking at the time, “All you naysayers, I’ll show you.” He sure did. When he was 13, he became the youngest person to scale Mount Everest.
He encourages kids to “find your Everest.” That doesn’t mean he wants everyone to start mountain climbing. What he means is to find something you love doing and set goals to reach it.
