這是一個(gè)蘊(yùn)含哲理的故事,先瀏覽一下首句和尾句便可判斷出短文的大意: 我們同來自鄉(xiāng)村中學(xué)的一個(gè)籃 球隊(duì)比賽,由于輕視對(duì)方而使比賽失敗。
1.C。情景推理題。下文寫道:We even thought that theyhad never seen a basketball before . (我們原來甚至認(rèn)為他們以前從未見過籃球。)可以推 斷出,他們看上去并不比我們想的更強(qiáng)壯等,而是更 糟糕(worse)。
2.D。詞匯題。由于上段作了鋪墊, 因此我們感覺到對(duì)付這樣的球隊(duì)不需要 (need)任何訓(xùn)練。
3.D。詞匯題。前面的late 和下文對(duì)他們來說熱身訓(xùn)練之事說明,沒 有的是時(shí)間,而不是space,bal l,basket。
4.A。詞匯題。只有得到了球才有下文傳給了前鋒。
5.D。詞匯題。stop the pass攔住了傳球,即斷下了球,我們則 missed the ball(失了球), 全句意為:不知從什么地方出來一個(gè)穿著臟T恤 衫的男孩斷下了球,漂亮地一投,得了兩分。
6.A。雖是詞匯題,但需從上文“我們不把他們放在眼里, 認(rèn)為他們是一個(gè) 弱隊(duì)的事實(shí)條件下才可準(zhǔn)確 選出。
7.B。常識(shí)題;@球比賽一般每進(jìn)一球得兩分,根據(jù)投球地點(diǎn), 也有三分球。
8.C。詞匯題。win后一般接比賽,如win a game等。beat(過去式也是beat) 后接某人,指打敗了某人 。
9.A。情景推理題。填just修飾a little better,表示另一支隊(duì)正好比這 支隊(duì)強(qiáng)一點(diǎn)。
10.B。綜合理解題。 這要從全文來考慮, 第一段談到了 They were wearing dirty blue jeans and looked like farm boys. 說明我們是以貌 取人。本句 tell 意為辨認(rèn), 判斷, 這時(shí)常與can/cou ld/be able to 連用。

這是一篇描述巴黎景觀的短文,文章抓住了該城的一個(gè)特色——燈城。雖只 有兩段,但包含了豐富的內(nèi)容 。
