England’s not that far away and Jock will be back in two days. But he couldn't swim the Atlantic (大西洋)

【解析】

快樂英語是在中國國家廣播電臺講短篇故事的節(jié)目，本文描述了這個(gè)節(jié)目中的兩個(gè)選稿。一個(gè)是英國人賣狗的故事，另一個(gè)是Hartley怕打雷去看醫(yī)生的故事。

【1】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段“England’s not that far away and Jock will be back in two days. But he couldn't swim the Atlantic”可知，老人賣狗給英國人而不賣給美國人，是因?yàn)橘u給英國人后，狗能回來，而賣給美國人，狗不容易回到老人身邊。故選C。

【2】推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段“Just think of it as a drum roll …If it doesn'… get under the bed and sing Mary Had A Little Lamb loudly. ”可知，醫(yī)生讓Hartley在床下唱歌，是想訓(xùn)練他不怕打雷。故選D。

【3】詞義猜測題。根據(jù)后面的“the symphony (交響樂）of life.”及前面說到Hartley怕打雷，可以猜測出是“擂鼓”，結(jié)合選項(xiàng)可知D項(xiàng)符合詞義。故選D。
