答案与解析
语篇导读:
萧伯纳的著名戏剧《卖花女》具有经久不衰的艺术魅力,描述的是语言学教授希金斯如何把一名卖花姑娘训练成英语发音被上流社会接受并认可的故事,从而抨击了当时英国腐朽保守的等级意识。
1.A 词义猜测题。
根据前文的“teacheshertospeakaseducatedpeopledo”以及下文的“Inthecourseofallhisexperimentsandexhibitions”可知该短语的意思是“把某人冒充或假装为”。
2.C 推理判断题。
根据第二段第三句可知希金斯只考虑自己的成败得失,从不考虑伊莉莎的感受,显然他是一个自私的人。
3.D 细节理解题。
根据最后一段第三句可知伊莉莎不会嫁给希金斯,因为希金斯担心未来的妻子会成为他母亲的对手,所以他不敢爱上任何一个女孩。
4.B 细节理解题。
根据第二段可知希金斯只是把伊莉莎当成一个试验品。
故B正确。
B

答案与解析
语篇导读:
本文是一篇记叙文,讲述了一家具有75年历史的剧院因为不利的地理位置和现代剧院的竞争而被转售的故事。
5.B 细节理解题。
根据首段的最后两句可知,这次散场后的清理工作与之前不同的是工人不仅清理走了垃圾,而且还搬走了座椅和剧院的其他设备,因为剧院已经被转卖出去了。
6.D 推理判断题。
根据第二段最后两句可知,剧院老板选择这部电影是因为这部电影本身讲述的就是小镇上唯一的电影院准备关门停业的故事,与PlazaTheater的现状一样。
7.C 推理判断题。
根据第四段末句中“whichplanstobuildashoppingcomplexonthelandwherethetheaterislocated”可以推断出这个剧院将被拆除,取而代之的是一个购物中心。
8.B 推理判断题。
根据第二段中的“mostofthe250seatswerefilledwithtearyeyedaudiencewantingtosaygoodbyetotheoldbuilding”可知,人们非常难过,不愿意看到老剧院被拆掉。
