One Friday morning,after she had finished her shopping and had taken it to her car,she found that she had forgotten to buy any tea.She dashed back to the supermarket,got the tea and went towards the cash-desk.As she did so,she saw the manager of the supermarket approach her."Madam,"he said,holding out his hand,"I want to congratulate you!You are our lucky customer and everything you have in your basket is free!"

Britain's Solo Sailor
Ellen MacArthur started sailing when she was eight,going out on sailing trips with her aunt.She loved it
so much that she saved her money for three years to buy her first small sailing boat.When she was 18,she
sailed alone around Britain and won the"Young Sailor of the Year"award.
But Ellen really became famous in 2001.Aged only 24,she was one of the only two women who entered
the Vendee Globe round the world solo race,which lasted 100 days.Despite many problems,she came second
in the race out of 24 competitors and she was given a very warm welcome when she returned.
Ambition and determination have always been a big part of Ellen's personality.When she was younger,
she lived in a kind of hut（棚屋）for three years while she was trying to get sponsorship to compete in a trans-
atlantic race.Then she took a one-way ticket to France,bought a tiny seven meter Class Mini yacht,slept
under it while she was repairing it,and then she raced it 4,000 kilometers across the Atlantic in 1997,alone
for 33 days.
Ellen has had to learn many things,because sailing single-handed means that she has to be her own cap-
tamn,electrician,sailmaker,engineer,doctor,journalist,cameraman and cook.She also has to be very ft,and
because of the dangers of sleeping for long periods of time while she's in the middle of the ocean,she has
trained herself to sleep for about 20 minutes at a time.
And she needs courage.Once,In the middle of the ocean,she had to climb the mast（桅杆）of a boat to
repair the sails一at four o'clock in the morning,with 100 kph winds blowing around her.It took her many
hours to make the repairs;Ellen says:"I was exhausted when I came down.It's hard to describe how it feels
to be up there.It's like trying to hold onto a big pole,which for me is just too big to get my arms around,with
someone kicking you all the time and trying to shake you off."
But in her diary , Ellen also describes moments which make it all worthwhile（值得的）: " A beautiful
sunrise started the day,with black clouds slowly lit by the bright yellow sun.I have a very strong feeling of
pleasure,being out here on the ocean and having the chance to live this.I just feel lucky to be here."Ellen lived in a kind of hut for three years___________.
A:while she was learning how to repair sails
B:while she was trying to get financial support for a race
C:because she was interested in country life
D:because she was ambitious for the coming race答案：B解析：短文第二段提到，“她是进人Vendee Globe环球个人帆船比赛的两个女选手之一”,“尽 管遇到了许多困难，在24名参赛的选手中她获得了第二名。"D选项与文章内容相符，因此，答案为D。
短文第三段第二句指出：“为了努力获得赞助去参加穿越大西洋的帆船比赛，她在一个 棚屋里住了三年。”选项B中的短语get financial support for a race与文章中的短语get sponsor-ship to compete in a transatlantic race同义。因此，B为正确答案。
solo意为“唯一的；单独的”。 single-handed“单人完成的；独自”。
仔细阅读短文第四段可以判断出选项B“她必须是自己的教师”没有在这一段出现。因此，这个选项不符合文章内容。
短文最后一段记述了Ellen当时的心情，清楚地表现了Ellen快乐的心情。因此，答案为C。第二篇 短文讲的是“一间房”学校对美国人的影响。 -

第12题：
Lisa was running late．Lisa,25 ,had a lot to do at work,plus visitors on the way: her parents were coming in for Thanksgiving from her hometown．But as she hurried down the subway stairs, she started to feel uncomfortably warn．By the time she got to the platform, Lisa felt weak and tired-- maybe it hadn' t been a good idea to give blood the night before, she thought．She rested herself against a post close to the tracks.
Several yards away, Frank ,43, and his girlfriend, Jennifer,found a spot close to where the front of the train would stop．They were deep in discussion about a house they were thinking of buying.
But when he heard the scream, followed by someone yelling," Oh, my God, she fell in!" Frank didn' t hesitate．He jumped down to the tracks and ran some 40 feet toward the body lying on the rails．"No ! Not you ! "his girlfriend screamed after him.
She was right to be alarmed．By the time Frank reached Lisa, he could feel the tracks shaking and see the light coming．The train was about 20 seconds from the station.
It was hard to lift her．She was just out．But he managed to raise her the four feet to the platform so that bystanders could hold her by the grins and drag her away from the edge．That was where Lisa briefly regained consciousness, felt herself being pulled along the ground, and saw someone else holding her purse.
Lisa thought she' d been robbed．A woman held her hand and a man gave his shirt to help stop the blood pouring from her head．And she tried to talk but she couldn' t, and that was when she realized how much pain she was in.
Police and fire officials soon arrived, and Frank told the story to an officer．Jennifer said her boyfriend was calm on their 40-minute train ride downtown--just as he had been seconds after the rescue,which made her think about her reaction at the time."I saw the train coming and I was thinking he was going to die．"she explained.
When did Lisa become conscious again?A.When the train was leaving.
B.After she was back on the platform.
C.After the police and fire officials came.
D.When a man was cleaning the blood from her head.答案：B解析：细节理解题。由倒数第三段的“It was hard to lift her．She was just out.But he managed to raise her the four feet to the platform so that bystanders could hold her by the grins and drag her away from the edge．That was where Lisa briefly regained consciousness”可知。 -

根据下列内容，回答191-195题。
Mrs．Janes gave music lessons at a school．She had a good voice and enjoyed singing，except that some of her high tones sounded like a gate that had been forgotten to oil．Mrs．Janes knew her weakness well，and took every chance she could to practice these high tones．As she lived in a small house，where she could not practice without disturbing the rest of the family，she usually went for long walks along the country roads whenever she had time and practiced her high tones there．Whenever she heard a car or a person coming along the road，she stopped and waited until she could no longer be heard before she started practicing again，because she was a shy person．
One afternoon，a fast，opened car came up behind her so silently and so fast that she didn’t hear it until it was only a few yards from her．She was singing some of her highest and most difficult tones at that time and as the car passed；she saw an anxious expression came over the driver’s face．
He stopped his car suddenly，jumped out and began to examine all the tyres carefully． Mrs．Janes didn’t dare to tell him what noise he had heard really was，so he got back into the car and drove off．
How did Mrs．Janes sing? __________A.She sang well，but she didn’t practice singing hard．
B.She enjoyed singin9，but she had a terrible voice．
C.She was a good singer，but she could not sing the high tones well．
D.She sang terribly，and she was not singer at all．答案：C解析：推断题。根据第一段“She had a good voice and enjoyed singing，except that some of herhigh tones sounded like a gate that had been forgotten to oil”可推知，她是一个好歌手，只是某些高音符唱不好。故答案为C。 -

under it while she was repairing it,and then she raced it 4,000 kilometers across the Atlantic in 1997,alone
for 33 days.
Ellen has had to learn many things,because sailing single-handed means that she has to be her own cap-
tamn,electrician,sailmaker,engineer,doctor,journalist,cameraman and cook.She also has to be very ft,and
because of the dangers of sleeping for long periods of time while she's in the middle of the ocean,she has
trained herself to sleep for about 20 minutes at a time.
And she needs courage.Once,In the middle of the ocean,she had to climb the mast（桅杆）of a boat to
repair the sails一at four o'clock in the morning,with 100 kph winds blowing around her.It took her many
hours to make the repairs;Ellen says:"I was exhausted when I came down.It's hard to describe how it feels
to be up there.It's like trying to hold onto a big pole,which for me is just too big to get my arms around,with
someone kicking you all the time and trying to shake you off."
But in her diary , Ellen also describes moments which make it all worthwhile（值得的）: " A beautiful
sunrise started the day,with black clouds slowly lit by the bright yellow sun.I have a very strong feeling of
pleasure,being out here on the ocean and having the chance to live this.I just feel lucky to be here."According to Paragraph 4,which of the following statements is NOT true?
A:She has trained herself to sleep for about 20 minutes at a time.
B:She has to be her own teacher.
C:She has to learn to repair sails.
D:She has to be very fit.答案：B解析：短文第二段提到，“她是进人Vendee Globe环球个人帆船比赛的两个女选手之一”,“尽 管遇到了许多困难，在24名参赛的选手中她获得了第二名。"D选项与文章内容相符，因此，答案为D。
短文第三段第二句指出：“为了努力获得赞助去参加穿越大西洋的帆船比赛，她在一个 棚屋里住了三年。”选项B中的短语get financial support for a race与文章中的短语get sponsor-ship to compete in a transatlantic race同义。因此，B为正确答案。
solo意为“唯一的；单独的”。 single-handed“单人完成的；独自”。
仔细阅读短文第四段可以判断出选项B“她必须是自己的教师”没有在这一段出现。因此，这个选项不符合文章内容。
短文最后一段记述了Ellen当时的心情，清楚地表现了Ellen快乐的心情。因此，答案为C。第二篇 短文讲的是“一间房”学校对美国人的影响。 -
第24题：
Lisa was running late.Lisa,25,had a lot to do at work,plus visitors on the way:her parents were coming in for Thanksgiving from her hometown.But as she hurried down the subway stairs,she started to feel uncomfortably warm.By the time she got to the platform,Lisa felt weak and tired—maybe it hadn′t been a good idea to give blood the night before,she thought.She rested herself against a post close to the tracks.
Several yards away,Frank,43,and his girlfriend,Jennifer,found a spot close to where the front of the.train would stop.They were deep in discussion about a house they were thinking of buying.
But when he heard the scream,followed by someone yelling,"Oh,my God,she fell in!"Frank didn′t hesitate.He jumped down to the tracks and ran some 40 feet toward the body lying on the rails."No!Not you!"his girlfriend screamed after him.
She was right to be alarmed.By the time Frank reached Lisa,he could feel the tracks shaking and see the light coming.The train was about 20 seconds from the station.
It was hard to lift her.She was just out.But he managed to raise her the four feet to the platform so that bystanders could hold her by the arms and drag her away from the edge.That was where Lisa briefly regained consciousness,felt herself being pulled along the ground,and saw someone else holding her purse.
Lisa thought she′d been robbed.A woman held her hand and a man gave his shirt to help stop the blood pouring from her head.And she tried to talk but she couldn′t,and that was when she realized how much pain she was in.
Police and fire officials soon arrived,and Frank told the story to an officer.Jennifer said her boyfriend was calm on their 40-minute train ride downtown—just as he had been seconds after the rescue,which made her think about her reaction at the time."I saw the train coming and I was thinking he was going to die,"she explained.
How did Frank save Lisa?A.By lifting her to the platform.
B.By helping her rise to her feet.
C.By pulling her along the ground.
D.By dragging her away from the edge.答案：A解析：考情点拨:事实细节题。应试指导:从第五段第三句可知，Frank,把Lisa抱到了站台上。
