【解析】這篇文章介紹了瑞克第一次去波士頓參加會(huì)議。由于他不認(rèn)識(shí)路，他在路邊問(wèn)了一對(duì)友好的老夫婦，但老夫婦聽(tīng)錯(cuò)了，故而指錯(cuò)了方向。后來(lái)警察把他帶到正確的地方。

【1】B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)Rick went to Boston for a meeting可知瑞克是去開(kāi)會(huì)。故選B。

【2】C細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由it was Rick’s first time to visit the city, so he didn’t know the way可知瑞克對(duì)這個(gè)城市不了解。故選C。

【3】A細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)The couple told Rick to take the underground and get off at Prince Station. Rick followed their advice, got off at Prince Station and walked east. An hour later, he was disappointed to find that

he was on 41st Street, not 44th Street可知Prince Station在第41大街。故選A。

【4】D詞義猜測(cè)題。從文中當(dāng)瑞克看到不是第44大街，他應(yīng)該感到失望。故選D。

【5】C計(jì)算題。從文中Another hour later, when a policeman took him back, he saw the couple again可知，瑞克找到正確的地方用了2個(gè)小時(shí)。故選C。

點(diǎn)晴：對(duì)細(xì)節(jié)理解題的答案一般在文中能找到，做題時(shí)帶著問(wèn)題快速閱讀，找出能解決問(wèn)題的有關(guān)信息；如第1題通過(guò)Rick went to Boston for a meeting可知瑞克是去開(kāi)會(huì)。詞義猜測(cè)題要通過(guò)上下文的聯(lián)系結(jié)合已有的知識(shí)來(lái)猜測(cè)單詞在具體語(yǔ)境中含義。計(jì)算題要以原文為依據(jù)，結(jié)合數(shù)學(xué)知識(shí)去推算。
