19.Linda and David have travelled by air from London to Sydney,Australia.Linda has promised her mother that she will ring her to let her know that they have arrived safely.This is something she had done ever since she was a child.David thinks it is not a good idea to ring so far,to spend too much,and to say so little."If there were an accident."He says,"they would know soon enough.Bad news travels fast."But Linda has promised that she would ring."However,"she says,"‘it doesn't cost much when you just think that it‘s the other side of the world.
It's only six pence per second."
"If you‘re on that telephone for less than one minute,I'll eat my hat.
David says,"And one minute's nearly four pounds."
"That's no more than you'd pay for a new hat."Linda answers.
She has asked the man at the hotel desk to get her the number.The telephone rings.Linda pi cks it up.
"Hello,Mum.Is that you?"She says.
"Six pence per second,"David reminds her.
"Hello,love."It is Mrs Lee,Linda's mother,speaking from London."I can hear you very clearly just like you are in the next room.It is a better line than when you called me from your office.
Do you remember?I shouted at that time,and still you couldn't hear me sometimes.""Yes,Mum."Linda puts in."I just wanted to ring to…"
"I remember how you rang when you went to Betty's house to eat,when you were a little girl.And then when you …"Mrs Lee is a great talker"Nearly four pounds."says David.
Linda tries to tell her mother that it is time to say goodbye.
"Yes,all right,"says Mrs Lee,"But you will write,won't you?as you did when you were at work …"
Once again,Mrs Lee talks about the pass,and there is no stopping her."Four pounds fifty."says David.
At last,Linda cuts her mother short,promises to write,and rings off."There!That wasn't long,was it?"
"Four pounds,ninety pence."David answers."And you didn't even say that we've arrived."

分析 本文主要講述了linda和David旅行到了悉尼,David認(rèn)為通過(guò)打電話的方式報(bào)平安花費(fèi)大說(shuō)話少,而 Linda不同意他的看法,但最終證明David 是正確的.

解答 24.B推理判斷題.由Linda has promised(答應(yīng)) her mother that she will ring her to let her know that they have arrived safely.可知琳達(dá)答應(yīng)她的母親,當(dāng)她安全到達(dá)時(shí)會(huì)給她打電話的,因此這里要選B.
25.D細(xì)節(jié)理解題.由it doesn't cost much when you just think that it's the other side of the world.可知琳達(dá)認(rèn)為這里是世界的另一端,因此電話費(fèi)不貴,所以這里要選D.
26.A推理判斷題. 根據(jù)Linda has promised her mother that she will ring her to let her know that they have arrived safely我們知道,這里的幾乎四鎊了,是為了提醒琳達(dá)電話費(fèi)的,因此這里選A.
27.B細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)At last,Linda cuts her mother short,promises to write,and rings off."There!That wasn't long,was it?"我們可以知道琳達(dá)的母親很喜歡說(shuō)話,一說(shuō)就沒停,因此這里要選B.

點(diǎn)評(píng) 本文是一個(gè)人物故事類閱讀理解,題目涉及多道細(xì)節(jié)理解題,做題時(shí)結(jié)合原文和題目有針對(duì)性的找出相關(guān)語(yǔ)句進(jìn)行仔細(xì)分析,結(jié)合選項(xiàng)選出正確答案.推理判斷題也是要在抓住關(guān)鍵句子的基礎(chǔ)上合理的分析才能得出正確答案,切忌胡亂猜測(cè),一定要做到有理有據(jù).

4.Long long ago there lived a wise man who used to go to the ocean to do his writing.He had a habit of walking on the beach before he began his work.
One day he was walking along the shore.As he looked down the beach,he saw a human figure moving like a dancer.He smiled to himself at the thought that someone would dance on the beach.So he began to walk faster to catch up.
As he got closer,he saw that it was a young man and the young man wasn't dancing,but instead he was reaching down to the shore,picking up something and very gently throwing it into the ocean.
As he got closer he called out,"Good morning!What are you doing?"
The young man paused,looked up and replied,"Throwing starfish in the ocean.""I guess I should have asked,why are you throwing starfish in the ocean?""The sun is up and the tide is going out,and if I don't throw them in they'll die."
"But,young man,don't you realize that there are miles and miles of beach and starfish all along it.You can't possibly make a difference!"
The young man listened politely,then he bent down,picked another starfish and threw it into the sea,past the breaking waves and said,"It made a difference for that one."
There is something very special in each and every one of us.We have all been gifted with the ability to make a difference.And if we can know that gift,we will gain through the strength of our visions the power to shape the future.
We must each find our starfish.And if we throw our starfish wisely and well,the world will be better.

11.Every day,in all kinds of weather,thousands of men and women jog.Why has jogging-running slowly for long distances-become so popular?Most joggers begin because they hear it is a very good exercise.Jogging makes the heart stronger and helps people lose weight.It can also help them feel better about themselves.
Donald Robbins,who is forty two years old and works in an office,began jogging a few years ago because he felt he was too fat.At first he could only run about 100yards.It took him three months to be able to run a mile.But two years later,he ran in a marathon over twenty six miles.Many joggers,like Donald Robbins,feel that if they can succeed in jogging,they can succeed in other things,and quite  often this feeling helps them in their jobs.

How fast should you go?Jog with a friend and talk to each other as you run.If you have difficulty in talking,you're going too fast.
How far should you jog?Remember not to go too far too soon.In fact,you should walk,not run,the first few times.Then do some short jogs,but no more than what you can do comfortably.After that,increase your distance a quarter or half a mile every two weeks or so.Maybe in a few years,you can run in a marathon too.
