5.C
根据第三段中Fortunately,theysufferedremarkablylittledamageasthieveswhohadclimbedupaladderandbrokenawindowtogetintothemuseumin2004ripthemoutoftheirframes.可知,使Rueger最吃惊的是丢失的绘画几乎没有受到损害。
6.D
推理判断题。
根据第五段最后一句Hedidn’tcelebraterightaway.He’dhadcallslithisbefore.可知,当Rueger接到意大利当局的电话时,他对这个消息感到疑惑。
故选D。
7.D
词义猜测题。
根据倒数第二段中Overtheseyears,wehadsomanyoccasionswhenpeoplephonedus,contactedus,claimingthattheyknewsomethingaboutthewhereabouts(下落)oftheworksandeachtimeitwasfalse,在最近这些年里,有很多次,人们给我们打电话,与我们取得联系,声称他们知道一些关于这些作品的下落的信息,但是每次信息都是假的。
由此推知划线部分的意思是“找到这些画的机会变得渺茫。
”故选D。
【名师点睛】
利用上下文提供的情景和线索,进行合乎逻辑的综合分析进而推测词义,最常见的就是利用上下文语境、常识和语法关系推断词义,抓住所需推断词汇前后的含义做出正确判断。
本题第4小题,根据倒数第二段中Overtheseyears,wehadsomanyoccasionswhenpeoplephonedus,contactedus,claimingthattheyknewsomethingaboutthewhereabouts(下落)oftheworksandeachtimeitwasfalse,在最近这些年里,有很多次,人们给我们打电话,与我们取得联系,声称他们知道一些关于这些作品的下落的信息,但是每次信息都是假的。
