  On Thursday afternoon Mrs. Clarke, dressed for going out, took her handbag with her money and her key in it, pulled the door behind her to lock it and went to the Over 60s Club. She always went there on Thursdays. It was a nice outing for an old woman who lived alone.
  At six o’clock she came home, let herself in and at once smelt cigarette smoke. Cigarette smoke in her house? How? Had somebody got in? She checked the back door and the windows. All were locked or fastened, as usual. There was no sign of forced entry. Had anything been taken? She went from room to room, checking. Yes, some things were missing — her small radio, her spare watch, a camera. That was all, she thought; but she couldn’t be sure just yet. She was annoyed, of course, but rather glad that nothing had been thrown about.
  Over a cup of tea she wondered whether someone might have a key that fitted her front door — “a master key” perhaps. So she stayed at home the following Thursday. Nothing happened. Was anyone watching her movements? On the Thursday after that she went out at her usual time, dressed as usual, but she didn’t go to the club. Instead she took a short cut home again, letting herself in through the garden and the back door. She settled down to wait.
  It was just after four o’clock when the front door bell rang. Mrs. Clarke was making a cup of tea at the time. The bell rang again, and then she heard her letter-box being pushed open. With the kettle(壺)of boiling water in her hand, she moved quietly towards the front door. A long piece of wire(金屬絲)appeared through the letter-box, and then a hand. The wire turned and caught around the knob(門把手) on the door-lock. Mrs. Clarke raised the kettle and poured the water over the hand. There was a shout outside, and the skin seemed to drop off the fingers like a glove. The wire fell to the floor, the hand was pulled back, and Mrs. Clarke heard the sound of running feet.
  That evening she reported the matter to the police. They were not too pleased, but they came and took away the wire and the skin. “It was only self-protection,” she told the officer. “An old woman must try to look after herself.” With the help of a doctor, the police found the man and recovered Mrs. Clarke’s things. She has become something of heroine at the Over 60s Club.
小題1: When did Mrs. Clarke go to the Over 60s Club?
___________________________________________________
小題2: Why did the smell of cigarette smoke surprise her?
___________________________________________________
小題3: On the third Thursday, did Mrs. Clarke go out at her usual time?
___________________________________________________
小題4: What was Mrs. Clarke doing when she was waiting for the thief?
___________________________________________________
小題5: What is Mrs. Clarke like?
___________________________________________________

小題1:On Thursdays.
小題2:Because she didn’t smoke herself; sb. must broke in when she was away.
小題3:Yes.
小題4:She was making tea and boiling a kettle of water.
小題5:She’s careful, brave and smart.

試題分析:文章講述了Clarke,一位老人,經(jīng)常在周四會去老人俱樂部,可有一次她回家時感覺自己家里有一股煙味,自己家了一些東西也被偷了,她很是意外。在第二個周四她沒有出去可是什么事情都沒有發(fā)生,而在第三個周四她假裝出去,后又折回在等到賊的到來,最后Clarke女士用自己智慧戰(zhàn)勝了小偷。
小題1:從第一自然段She always went there on Thursdays. 可知,她每周四會去那個老人俱樂部,故填On Thursdays.
小題2:從第二自然段中Clarke回到家時,感覺到不對勁,因為她聞到了一股煙味,可知,她之所以感到吃驚的原因是她自己并不抽煙,故填Because she didn’t smoke herself; sb. must broke in when she was away.
小題3:從第三自然段So she stayed at home the following Thursday. Nothing happened. Was anyone watching her movements? On the Thursday after that she went out at her usual time, dressed as usual, 可知,她第三次是按平時一樣出去了,故填Yes.
小題4:第四自然段第一句話Mrs. Clarke was making a cup of tea at the time. 可知,當(dāng)她在等那個小偷的時候,她正在沏茶,故回答She was making tea and boiling a kettle of water.
小題5:從第三自然段及第四自然段可知,她第三次假裝出去了,不久后又折回,在家里等那個小偷,她還勇敢地用開水潑那個小偷,可知她是細(xì)心、勇敢、聰明的。She’s careful, brave and smart.
點評:本文較難,對于此類故事文體,把握好作者所記敘的事情發(fā)展的情節(jié)及順序。將自己設(shè)身處地的融入到文章中,理解文章的大致意思。對于題目,可以在通過關(guān)鍵字的定位,迅速在文章中找到相對應(yīng)的出處,一般答案就在那里。

Recently, the relationship between the two countries got worse because of the Diaoyu Islands.
The Japanese government signed a contract(合同) on Sep 11 with the Kurihara family. It was to pay the so-called “private(私人的) owner” 2.05 billion yen (166 million yuan) to “buy” part of China’s Diaoyu Islands.
Anti-Japan(反日) feeling grew strongly among Chinese people. Many people walked into the streets and shouted out “Diaoyu Islands are China’s.” Some have decided not to buy Japanese products any more. “I am boycotting(抵制) Japanese goods as a show of support. I’ll work hard to make the country much stronger,” Liu Xiushan, 33, a lawyer in Beijing said to China Daily.
However, some didn’t show their anger in the right way. They broke cars and stores of Japanese brands. Some used rude words. These actions are bad for our position and image. Some actions were against law.
Li Jingjun, a 17-year-old high school student in Guangzhou, was shocked by what he learned from TV and the Internet. He joined protects(抗議) in his city on September 15. But he acted differently. He called for rational (理智的) actions.
“We have every right to say the Diaoyu Islands belong to us, but we should watch our behaviour. Bad manners can harm our dignity(尊嚴(yán)) and sense of justice(正義感)” ,said Li Jingjun.

It’s a good idea for families to talk about what they can do to escape(逃脫)from a fire(火災(zāi)) . Do you know what to do if there is a fire in your flat? Here are some tips for you:
1. Shout out. Shout as loudly as you can, because people may be asleep.
2. Call 119. Never try to put out a fire yourself. Tell 119 where you are and what is on fire.
3. Keep down close to the floor. There is less smoke down there, so it’s easier to breathe (呼吸) and see where you are going.
4. Test the door. If the door is cool, open it carefully. If not, do not open it! Try to find a different way out.
5. Get out. Do not stop to pick up anything. A fire can become very big in a few seconds!
6. Don’t use the lift(電梯). Always use the stairs (樓梯) . The lift may go wrong. It isn’t safe and many keep you inside in a fire.
7. Don’t go back. Even if you leave your pet or favorite toy inside, do not go back for it. Animals have a very good sense of smell. They often get out of buildings before people.
  小題1:  to do in a fire
Shout 小題2: and then people can hear you.
It is dangerous to put out a fire 小題3: .
Keep down close to the floor because there is
  小題4:   smoke there.

can become very big soon.

 小題8:  at that time.
