18.There was a wealthy and rather strange old man named Johnson who lived alone in a village in the sou th of En gland.He had made a lot of money in trading with foreign countries.When he was seventy-five,he gave $ 60,000 to the village school to buy land and equipment for a children's ground.
As a result of his kindness,he became famous.Many people came to visit him.Among them was a newspaperman.During their talk,Johnson remarked that he was seventy-five and expected to live to be hundred.The newspaperman asked him how he managed to be healthy at seventy-five.Johnson had a sense of humor.He liked whisky and drank some each day."I have an injection (注射) in my neck each evening,"he told the newspaperman,thinking of his evening glass of whisky.
The newspaperman did not understand what Johnson meant.In his newspaper he reported that Johnson was seventy-five and had daily injection in his neck.Within a week Johnson received thousands of letters from all over Britain,asking him for the secret of his daily injection.
21.Johnson became a rich man throughA.

分析 本文講述的是一個(gè)幽默的老人把喝酒說成是頸部注射.記者沒有理解他的意思,直接把這句話印刷在報(bào)紙上,引起了人們的誤解.

解答 21. A 細(xì)節(jié)理解題.從第一段的句子:He had made a lot of money in trading with foreign countries.可知他是做生意掙的錢.選A.
22.C 推理判斷題.根據(jù)句子he gave $ 60,000 to the village school to buy land and equipment for a children's ground,他給學(xué)校捐錢可知他很喜歡孩子.選C
23.D 細(xì)節(jié)理解題.從最后一段的句子:asking him for the secret of his daily injection.可知是詢問在脖子的什么地方打針.選D.
 24.A 細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)文章第二段Johnson had a sense of humor.He liked whisky (威士忌酒) and drank some each day."I have an injection (注射) in my neck each evening,"he told the newspaperman,thinking of his evening glass of whisky.可知他喜歡晚上喝酒,所以A正確.

點(diǎn)評 閱讀理解題測試考生在閱讀基礎(chǔ)上的邏輯推理能力,要求考生根據(jù)文章所述事件的邏輯關(guān)系,對未說明的趨勢或結(jié)局作出合理的推斷;或根據(jù)作者所闡述的觀點(diǎn)理論,對文章未涉及的現(xiàn)象、事例給以解釋.考生首先要仔細(xì)閱讀短文,完整了解信息,準(zhǔn)確把握作者觀點(diǎn).

8.Ideas about education are changing in the United States.Education today is not just a high school diploma(文憑) or a college degree.Many adults are not interested in going to college.They are interested in other kinds of learning.For them,learning does not end with a diploma.
Continuing education gives these adults the opportunity to increase their knowledge about their own field or to learn about a new field.It also gives them a chance to improve their old skills or to learn new ones.
Scientists,mechanics and barbers can take classes to improve their work skills.If they know more or learn more,they can get a better job or earn more money.
Continuing education classes give more adults the chances to learn new skills.There are different classes to choose from:typing,foreign cooking,photography,auto repair,furniture repair,or swimming.These are only some of the classes available.
Some adults take classes for fun or because the class will be useful for them.Other adults take continuing education classes to improve their own lives because they want to feel better about themselves.
Almost any community college or public school system has a continuing education program.There are classes in schools,community buildings or churches.Most classes are in the evening,so working people can attend.The classes are usually small,and they are inexpensive.

51.What's the purpose for adults to continue their education?A
A.To enlarge their knowledge and learn new skills.
B.To catch up the opportunity to get a higher degree.
C.To learn more basic knowledge to get a diploma.
D.To make more money by getting a high degree.
52.Which of the following statement is TRUE?C
A.Only a few continuing education classes are offered to adults.
