A. lives; are well sold                 B. living; sell well

C. lives; sell good                    D. living; are well sold

 

【答案】

B

【解析】

試題分析:考查動(dòng)詞。本句話的真正主語(yǔ)是All the Harry Potter books, 所以第二個(gè)空應(yīng)該填sell well(賣(mài)得很好)。此處sell不用被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)。living in Edinburgh是現(xiàn)在分詞作mother的后置定語(yǔ)。a poor single mother 作Joanne Rowling的同位語(yǔ)。句意:非常暢銷的《哈利波特》系類書(shū)籍是一個(gè)住在愛(ài)丁堡地方的一個(gè)叫喬安妮·羅林貧困的單親媽媽所寫(xiě)的。根據(jù)句意說(shuō)明B正確。

It was a beautiful day at the beach—blue sky, gentle wind, calm sea.I knew these things because a man sitting five feet from me was shouting them into his mobile phone, like a play-by-play announcer (實(shí)況解說(shuō)員).

“IT’S A BEAUTIFUL DAY,” he shouted.“THE SKY IS BLUE, AND THERE’S A GENTLE WIND, AND THE WATER IS CALM, AND…”

Behind me, a woman, her mobile phone pressed to her ear was walking back and forth.

“She DIDN’T,” she was saying.“No.She DIDN’T.She DID? Really? Are you SERIOUS? She did NOT.She DID? No she…”

And so on.This woman had two children, who were playing in the sea.I found myself watching them, because the woman surely was not.A huge squid could have caught and snatched the children, and this woman would not have noticed.Or, if she had noticed, she’d have said, “Listen.I have to go, because a huge squid just……No! She didn’t ! She DID? No! She……”

And next to me, the play-by-play man would have said: “…AND A HUGE SQUID JUST ATE TWO CHILDREN, AND I’M GETTING A LITTLE SUNBURNED, AND …”

It used to be that the major trouble at the beach was the fellow who brought a boom box (便攜式錄音機(jī)) and turned it up so loud that the bass notes caused seagulls to explode.But at least you knew where these fellows were; you never know which beachgoers have mobile phones.You’ll settle next to what appears to be a sleeping sunbather, or even (you hope) a corpse , and you’ll lie happily on your towel, and you’ll get all the way to the second sentence of your 467-page book before you fall asleep to the hypnotic surge of the surf (催人入夢(mèng)的潮聲), and …

BREEP! BREEP! The corpse sits up, feels urgently for its mobile phone, and shouts “Hello! I’m at the beach! Yes! It’s nice! Very peaceful! What? She did? No, she didn’t! She DID? No, she…”

Loud mobile-phoners never seem to get urgent calls.Just once, I’d like to hear one of them say, “Hello? Yes, this is Dr.Johnson.Oh, Dr.Smith.You’ve opened the abdominal cavity (腹腔)? Good! Now the appendix should be right under the … What? No, that’s the liver.Don’t take THAT out, ha ha! Oh, you did? My God! OK, now listen carefully…”

From the passage we can know that the writer of the passage _____.

       A.had a wonderful holiday at the beach

       B.must have suffered a lot because of the terrible weather

       C.is only interested in talks by doctors about operation

       D.experienced an unhappy holiday at the beach

       B.A huge squid ate two children while their mother was not watching.

       C.Some people used to play boom box while spending their holidays at the beach.

       D.Some people often make loud mobile phone calls without caring for others.

The underlined word“ corpse”in this passage has the closest meaning to________.

       A.a(chǎn) dead body           B.a(chǎn) loud mobile phone        

       C.a(chǎn) sound sleeper        D.a(chǎn) sleep lover

       B.turned it up to cause the seagulls to explode

       C.might cause less trouble than the beachgoers with mobile phones

     We were on tour a few summers ago, driving through Chicago, when right outside of the city, we got pulled over. A middle-aged policeman came up to the car and was really being troublesome at first. Lecturing us, he said, "You were speeding. Where are you going in such a hurry?" Our guitarist, Tim, told him that we were on our way to Wisconsin to play a show. His way towards us totally changed. He asked, "Oh, so you boys are in a band (樂(lè)隊(duì))?”We told him that we were. He then asked all the usual broad questions about the type of music we played, and how long we had been at it. Suddenly, he stopped and said, "Tim, you want to get out of this ticket, don't you?" Tim said, "Yes." So the officer asked him to step out of the car. The rest of us, inside the car, didn't know what to think as we watched the policeman talk to Tim. Next thing we knew, the policeman was putting Tim in the back of the police car he had parked in front of us. With that, he threw the car into reverse(倒車), stopping a few feet in back of our car. Now we suddenly felt frightened. We didn't know if we were all going to prison, or if the policeman was going to sell Tim on the black market or something. All of a sudden, the pollen's voice came over in a loudspeaker. He said, "Ladies and gentlemen, for the first time ever, we have Tim here singing on Route 90.” Turns out, the policeman had told Tim that the only way he was getting out of the ticket was if he sang part of one of our songs over the loudspeaker in the police car. Seconds later, Tim started screaming into the receiver. The policeman enjoyed the performance, and sent us on our way without a ticket.

56. The policeman stopped the boys to ______.

     A. put them into prison               B. give them a ticket

     C. enjoy their performance             D. ask some band questions           

57. The policeman became friendly to the boys when ha knew they ____

     A. had long been at the band         B. played the music he loved

     C. were driving for a show           D. promised into a performance       

58. The boys probably felt ______ when they drove off.

     A, joyful               B. calm            C. nervous        D. frightened
