分析 本文寫(xiě)了少年比利從十四歲就開(kāi)始兼職送報(bào)紙，除了生活之外，還給自己上大學(xué)攢錢．

解答 27．D 推理判斷題．Billy is 14 years old and in the ninth grade．He has a part-time job which gets him up every morning at 5 o'clock．BIlly是九年級(jí)的學(xué)生才十四歲，就開(kāi)始每天早上五點(diǎn)起床做兼職工作，可以推斷出他是一個(gè)獨(dú)立的而自信的孩子，所以答案選D．
28．A 細(xì)節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)句子 His customers think he does a good job．Sometimes they give him tips．他的顧客認(rèn)為他干得很好，有時(shí)給他小費(fèi)．所以答案選A．
29．B 猜測(cè)詞義題．根據(jù)句子：Billy must deliver the newspapers to the houses of people on his route in all kinds of weather．比利必須在各種天氣情況下把報(bào)紙送到他路線上的人們的家里，deliver the newspaper的意思應(yīng)該是送報(bào)紙，所以答案選B． 
30．A 細(xì)節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)句子Billy earns about＄70 per month，and he is saving some of the money to go to college．每個(gè)月掙得70美元，節(jié)省出一部分錢上大學(xué)，所以答案選A．
31．D 細(xì)節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)句子Billy might win a prize for being an outstanding newspaper boy．He wants to win a trip to Europe，but he will still be happy if he wins a new bicycle．比利可能因?yàn)槌蔀橐幻麅?yōu)秀的報(bào)童而獲獎(jiǎng)，他想贏得一次去歐洲的旅行，但如果他贏得一輛新自行車，他仍然會(huì)很高興．所以答案選D．

點(diǎn)評(píng) 閱讀理解題測(cè)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(duì)未說(shuō)明的趨勢(shì)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(duì)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)．
