Question

It's a name that needs no address.Everyone knows Santa Claus lives at the North Pole.
So letters sent to Santa Claus find their way to the small town of the North Pole deep in Alaska，including those simply sent to Santa. Last year，120,000 letters arrived from 26 countries，not including the thousands with no return addresses.

Those who have return addresses usually get a reply and a North Pole postmark（郵戳） that has delighted children all over the world for many years. They feel happy to receive Santa's reply.
Letters arrive all the year around in the town of 1,600，where streets have names such as Santa Claus Lane and Kris Kringle Drive. Around Thanksgiving，they start getting there by the thousands each day as Christmas comes. Even letters without stamps get through，an exception（例外）for the U．S. Postal Service.
“This is special because it has Santa's name on it，”said Debra Cornelius，an officer at the main post office in nearby Fairbanks，where the letters are kept during the holiday.
Gabby Gaborik is among several dozen volunteers who are busy sending off replies to children who sent return addresses.
In his 10 years as a volunteer，Gaborik has seen every kind of wish. There are children who want the latest toys they see on TV. There are children who ask for miracles（奇跡），some wanting their mother back for Christmas or their father back from Iraq，even though he died there.
Replies get a North Pole postmark，including a half­moon drawing of Santa's face. Even late letters get a reply，Gaborik said，“It says something like ‘Thanks for writing. Santa's been really busy，’anything the children might want to hear，”he said

試題分析：本文敘述了寫給圣誕老人的信不用寫地址就可以收到并得到回復(fù)的故事。在北極阿拉斯加州有一個(gè)小鎮(zhèn)，這里有一個(gè)圣誕老人命名的街道，所以寫給圣誕老人的信不用寫地址，人們就知道信會(huì)到達(dá)阿拉斯加州的圣誕老人街，在那里每天都會(huì)收到成千上萬(wàn)封信。有志愿者會(huì)回信。甚至這些信可以免費(fèi)的。
1.推理判斷題。根據(jù)第四段的Letters arrive all the year around in the town of 1,600，where streets have names such as Santa Claus Lane and Kris Kringle Drive. 一年四季信件到達(dá)1600人的小鎮(zhèn),在那里有街道名如Santa Claus Lane （圣誕老人巷）and Kris Kringle Drive。從中可知有真實(shí)的名為圣誕老人的街道，所以信件只寫圣誕老人就可以收到，沒(méi)用寫其他的地址。故選D。
