原文:
When my husband was promoted, we put our house up for sale. Three weeks later , it was still on the market. I became a busy housekeeper. Ever room had to be kept tidy, and dishes had to be washed and put away when used . then one day the doorbell rang unexpectedly at 08 a.m. Sleepily ,I open the door and saw our agent standing there with a couple from New York. “There was no time to call ”, he explained, ”because the couple had to catch a plane home.”
The three people made their way passed the dirty breakfast dishes on the kitchen table and into bedroom with unmade beds. As I retreated into a bathroom to comb my hair , I heard the man say something to his wife . Then they both laughed.
Two days later , the agent phoned to tell me that the couple had bought the house . He repeated what the buyer had said when he handed over the check the following day : “ That house has a warm, lived-in-feeling , just like ours.”
Question
11.Why did the speaker sell her house ?
12.Why did the agent visit the speaker so early in the morning?
13.Why did the couple laugh in the speaker’s house ?
答案與分析
11 A 這一題考的就是文章的第一句話When my husband was promoted ,而且這里有一個(gè)時(shí)間項(xiàng)標(biāo)志詞“when”。Promote 升遷,晉升,與選項(xiàng)A的got a higher position是同意復(fù)現(xiàn)。
12 B 這一題的考點(diǎn)在第一段最后一行那個(gè)Agent說(shuō)的話:because the couple had to catch a plane home. 這里有個(gè)很明顯的因果項(xiàng)標(biāo)志詞because。這句話時(shí)說(shuō)他們要去趕飛機(jī),所以選B, 這是一個(gè)近義復(fù)現(xiàn)
13 D 這一題的考點(diǎn)是文章的最后一句話“That house has a warm, lived-in-feeling , just like ours.”這個(gè)房子有一種溫暖和居住的感覺(jué),就像我們自己的。這句話的意思也就是D選項(xiàng)的“something familiar to them”有些東西讓他們很熟悉很親近。
其實(shí)能抓住前面三句,最后兩句,再加上一些標(biāo)志詞,應(yīng)該還是能夠把握考點(diǎn)的。
