6.It's that time of year when people need to lock their cars.It's not because there're lots of criminals stealing cars.Rather,it's because of good-hearted neighbors who want to share their harvest.Especially with this year's large crop,leaving a car unlocked in my neighborhood is an invitation for someone to stuff it with zucchini(西葫蘆).
My sister,Sharon,recently had a good year of tomatoes.She and her family had eaten and canned so many that they begun to feel their skin turn slightly red.She decided to share her blessings.She called everyone she knew.When that failed,she began asking everyone in the neighborhood,eventually finding a neighbor delighted to have the tomatoes."Feel free to take whatever you want,"Sharon told her.She felt happy that she could help someone and that the food didn't go to waste.
A few days later,the neighbor appeared in her house,holding a hot loaf of bread.She smiled,"I wanted to thank you for the tomatoes,and I have to admit I took a few other things too."
Sharon couldn't think of anything else that had been worth harvesting and said so,"Oh,but you did,"the neighbor said."You had some of the prettiest zucchini I've ever seen."
Sharon was confused.They hadn't even planted any zucchini.But her neighbor insisted there were bright-green zucchini in her garden.Sharon decided to go to see where the zucchini had grown.The two of them walked t into the backyard.When the neighbor pointed at the long green vegetables,Sharon smiled,"Well,actually,those are cucumbers that we never harvested,because they got too big,soft and bitter for eating."
The neighbor looked at Sharon,shock written all over her face.Then,smiling,she held out the bread she had shared all over the neighborhood."I brought you a nice loaf of cucumber bread.I hope you will like it."

28.What does the underlined word"stuff"in Paragraph 1probably mean?C
A.Decorate.
B.Swap.
C.Fill.
D.Exchange.
29.What does the author mean by saying"they had begun to feel their skin turn slightly red"in Paragraph 2?A
A.They thought they ate too many tomatoes.
B.They got sunburnt when picking tomatoes.
C.They were ashamed that they wasted too many tomatoes.
D.They felt embarrassed by not sharing tomatoes with their neighbors.
30.How might the neighbor feel after knowing the truth?B
A.Annoyed.
B.Astonished.
C.Grateful.
D.Embarrassed.
31.From the text,we can infer that the neighborC.
A.liked eating bread made of cucumbers
B.only picked tomatoes in Sharon's garden
C.mistook big cucumbers for zucchini
D.went to another neighbor's garden mistakenly.

分析 本文講述了一個地方莊稼豐收之后的盛大景象.人們喜歡分享自己的勞動成果,如果人們忘了鎖車,會被塞滿西葫蘆等食物.Sharon因為種植的西紅柿獲得大豐收,要與鄰居分享,讓他們自己從地里拿回去吃,西紅柿的個頭之大被鄰居誤認為是西葫蘆帶走.

解答 28-31 CABC
28.C.詞意猜測題.根據(jù)前面一句it's because of good-hearted neighbors who want to share their harvest.可知,人們會分享他們的收成,如果不鎖車車里會被填滿莊稼,所以由此可推斷stuff的含義應(yīng)該是fill,填滿;故選C.
29.A.細節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)本段中一句She and her family had eaten and canned so many that they begun to feel their skin turn slightly red可知,因為西紅柿
收成好,他們吃的比較多、儲藏的也比較多,由此導(dǎo)致了感覺自己的皮膚也開始微微發(fā)紅,故選A.
30.B.細節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)最后一段中開頭一句The neighbor looked at Sharon,shock written all over her face.可知,當鄰居們得知真相時,是感到非常的吃驚的,因為一種震驚的表情仿佛寫在了臉上;故選B.
31.C.推理判斷題.根據(jù)第五段中的最后一句actually,those are cucumbers that we never harvested,because they got too big,soft and bitter for eating.可知,Sharon后花園里種植的西紅柿非常大,被鄰居誤認為是西葫蘆而拿走,實際上他們拿走的是碩大的西紅柿;故選C.

點評 本文考察的人物故事閱讀.在閱讀時,首先看題目要求我們理解什么細節(jié),找出關(guān)鍵詞,然后以此為線索,運用尋讀的技巧迅速在文章里找出相應(yīng)的段落、句子或短語.認真比較選項和文中細節(jié)的區(qū)別,在正確理解細節(jié)的前提下,確定最佳答案.這樣一來,既提高了閱讀的速度,又能確保答案的準確率.

14.Greenwich (格林威治)is on the River,five miles from the middle of London,and its history is two thousand years old.The first English people were fishermen there,and they named the place Greenwich,meaning"green village".Later the English kings and queens lived at Greenwich in their beautiful places.
The name of the earliest palace was Placentia.Henry VIII lived there.He knew that England must be strong at sea.So he started two big ship-yards (船塢)at Greenwich.But trouble was coming to Greenwich.In 1649,a war started in England and for eleven years there was no king.The men who had worked for him at Placentia decided to live the place themselves.They sold all its beautiful things.Finally,the war ended and King Charles II came back.But Placentia was falling down.So King Charles built a new and bigger palace,which is now open to the public.
At this time,Charles was worried about losing so many of its ships at sea:their sailors did not know how to tell exactly where they were.So in 1675,Charles made John Flamsteed,the first astronomer (天文學(xué)家)in England,try to find the answer.Flamsteed worked in a new building on the high ground in Greenwich Park.From it with a telescope which he made himself,F(xiàn)lamsteed could look all round the sky.And he did,night after night,for twenty years.Carrying on Flamsteed's work a hundred years later,an astronomer called Harrison finally made a clock which told the time at sea,and helped sailors to know where they were.You can see Harrison's clock,still working,in Greenwich's museum of the sea.Because of Flamsteed's work,every country in the world now tells its time by Greenwich Time.

35.The first English people living in the"green village"wereC.
A.sailors                  B.King Charles and his family
C.fishermen               D.The families of kings and queens
36.What kind of trouble came to Greenwich in 1649?D
A.Placentia was destroyed.B.King Henry died.
C.Ship-yards were built.D.A war started in England.
37.Charles made John Flamsteed try to findB.
A.how to build strong ships            B.how to tell sailors'positions at sea
C.how to tell the exact time            D.a(chǎn) place to set up a telescope
38.Who made the first clock which could tell the time at sea?A
A.Harrison    B.Flamsteed    C.Henry    D.Charles.
