1.Emily got the first place in the Spelling Bee.We all admire her spelling ability( 。
A.a competition to spell wordsB.a competition to give speeches
C.a competition to tell storiesD.a competition to sing songs

分析 艾米麗在拼寫比賽中獲得了第一名,我們都很佩服她的拼寫能力.

解答 答案:A.根據(jù)語境the Spelling Bee(拼字比賽)和各選項相比較,A:a competition to spell words拼寫單詞大賽,B:a competition to give speeches 演講比賽,C:a competition to tell stories 講故事大賽,D:a competition to sing songs 歌唱比賽.只有答案A語境the Spelling Bee一致,所以答案為A.

點評 為何拼字比賽的英文名會叫作"拼字蜜蜂",至今尚不清楚.其中一個可信的說法,是歷史上在美國這一類為某種目的而聚集的社會活動多會被冠以"蜜蜂"稱號,衍生為"群作聚會"、"蜂擁而上的行動"之意[1],與漢語的"集體勞動"相若.如19世紀初農(nóng)民集體剝玉米殼的活動就被稱作"去殼蜜蜂"(husking bee),拼字比賽相信也是因類似情況而被稱作"拼字蜜蜂". 
拼字比賽的基本規(guī)則是,當(dāng)主持人念出一個詞,參賽者就要開始把字母口述拼出來.參賽者可以重新再拼,但已念出的字母或字母順序不可再更改.只要參賽者拼錯了一個詞,他就會立刻被淘汰.比賽以回合制舉行,直至淘汰到最后一位參賽者為止.

12.Mrs.Jones was over eighty,but she still drove her old car like a young woman.She loved driving very fast,and she said that she had never been punished for a driving offence(違章).
Then one day,she nearly lost her record.A police car followed her,and the policeman in it saw her pass a red light without stopping.
When Mrs.Jones came before the policeman,he looked at her seriously and said that she was too old to drive a car,and that her eyes had probably become weak with old age,so she had not stopped at the red light.
After the policeman finished his words.Mrs.Jones,without saying a word,opened the big handbag she was carrying and took out her sawing (針線活).She chose a needle(針)with a very small eye,and threaded(穿線)it at her first try.
When she had successfully done this,she took the thread out of the needle again and handed tooth the needle and the thread to the policeman,saying."Now it is your turn.You drive a car and you must see clearly."
The policeman took the needle and tried to thread it.After trying for six times,he still didn't succeed,so Mrs.Jones wasn't punished.Her record remained unbroken.

請根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,判斷下列句子正誤,正確為"T",錯誤為"F",并在答題卡上把"T"或者"F"涂黑.
