A Christmas Present B. A Street Urchin C. A Brother Like That D. An Unforgettable Holiday Ride解析 (1)本題考查細(xì)節(jié)理

50、解，依據(jù)本文第二段：Paul answered,“Yes, my brother gave it to me for Christmas.”The boy was surprised.故答案選B。(2)本題考查學(xué)生的推理判斷能力，依據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段和第三段的內(nèi)容，尤其是頑童對他弟弟所說的話：“And some day I'm going to give you one just like it.”故選A。(3)本題考查學(xué)生的深層理解。Paul的種種猜想會對正確選擇產(chǎn)生干擾。依據(jù)是本文倒數(shù)第二段的最后一句話：“Then you can see for yourself all the nic

51、e things in the Christmas window that I've been trying to tell you about.”故選D。(4)本題考查歸納文章中心。從頑童的言行之中可以看出他對殘疾弟弟有深深的愛。如：“You mean your brother gave it to you and it didn't cost you anything.”“He was carrying his little crippled brother.”故選B。(5)本題考查概括全文主旨的能力。本文敘述了兩對兄弟的關(guān)愛之情。Paul的哥哥送給他一輛小汽車作為圣誕禮物

52、，頑童雖然沒有Paul哥哥那樣的經(jīng)濟條件，但他有著一份對殘疾弟弟的深深的愛。所以A Brother Like That為最佳題目。閱讀理解（98）Nasreddin(納斯雷金) was sitting by a window in his house one day in the middle of winter when he heard women crying outside.

56、g a happy life9.Nasreddin told his wife to lock the door because _.A. it was very cold in his house B. he was afraid of those crying womenC. he wanted to go to bed D. he was afraid those people would bring the dead man to his house解析 5.在中國，習(xí)慣上把11月至次年的1月稱之為冬季，文章中的in the middle of winter,故此題答案為C。6.根據(jù)上

57、下文，如：“He put his head out of the window and saw a lot of people coming towards his house. They were crying a dead man.”故此答案為D。7.根據(jù)上下文，了解全文，可用排除法判斷A、B、D答案都是不正確的，故此題答案為C。8.從文中“Why are you leaving us to go to a place without light and without a fire and without food?”上文一句“.a lot of people coming toward

58、s his house.”由此推斷答案應(yīng)為B。9.文章最后一句“They are talking about our house. They are bringing the dead man here!”所以說Nasreddin害怕的是人們把這個死人拍到他家里來。故此答案為D。閱讀理解（99）The giraffe is the tallest modern land animal. It can be over 5.5 metres tall. Its neck alone may be 1.9metres long.
