13、elf. ”“Oh?” the vet said, Why?“I did what you said, ” the farmer answered. “I put thetube in the cows mouth and then put two pills down it. ”“And?” the vet asked.“The cow blew first, ” the farmer said.1.In the story, the vet must be _.A. the farmers friend B. a milk factoryC. a hospital for cows D.

16、e vet outside his house thenext day. Passage 2【答案與解析】這篇令人忍俊不禁的幽默的主要內(nèi)容是：一個農(nóng)夫的牛病倒了。獸醫(yī)給了他一些藥和一根管子，并告訴他怎么樣用這根管子給牛喂藥。第二天，獸醫(yī)再次到農(nóng)場時發(fā)現(xiàn)那位農(nóng)夫坐在家門口，一臉的焦慮不安。原來他的牛病情并沒有好轉(zhuǎn)。他說自己按照獸醫(yī)的囑咐做了，可當(dāng)他將管子插入牛的嘴里，并放進兩粒藥丸，正想吹氣時，牛卻先吹了一口氣。1.D。根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，很容易推測出該詞的漢語意思是“獸醫(yī)”。答案當(dāng)然是 D。2.D。由“ Shes lying down and won t eat. Shes making astra

17、nge noise. ”能夠排除 A和 B。C顯然不對。3.C?！癏e took a bottle out of his box, put two pillsinto his hand ”一句是答案的出處。4.B。 由“How should I give them to her? ”這句話可知。5.A. 根據(jù)短文最后一句話，不難想象，沒等農(nóng)夫吹氣，牛先吹了一口氣，將藥丸吹到了農(nóng)夫的嘴里。做這樣類型的題有一種小技巧，你能夠在回答問題的時候同時把答案的相對應(yīng)部分用筆標(biāo)出來，這樣的好處有兩個，一是提升準(zhǔn)確率，二是當(dāng)你覺得哪個答案有可能有誤差的時候能夠只針對那句話和它的上下文來判斷，不必閱讀整篇文章。

26、距離旅行，因為天氣狀況不好，只好在波蘭 (Poland)著陸。行程達 1,797 公里，將近 1,800 公里。2.A. 根據(jù)“This could hold water. Or it could be empty.So they were able to change its weight. ”可知，金屬盒里盛的水是并非是飲用水，而是用來改變氣球重量的。文中還說他們同時也帶了幾袋沙子來調(diào)節(jié)氣球的重量。3.B. 根據(jù)“It went up to 3,000 meters, and the air wasvery cold. ”或地理常識可斷定 B為答案。4.A. 如果氣球降落在湖上或海上，那將

27、是很危險的，聯(lián)系“ Theycame down in Poland heavily but safely ”，可知 A是答案。5.D. 答案源自最后一段中的“ They were so cold that theydecided to land. ”一句。Passage 4If you get into the forest with your friends, stay withthem always.
