试题分析:
1.本文的最后一句是It’s my wife, she is ill.意思为我的妻子病了,所以根据文意可知,邮递员去看医生不是因为自己生病了,而是他的妻子生病了,故本题选C。
2.本文的第二行有句You need more exercise,意思为你需要锻炼,然后后文提到不锻炼对于健康的影响,以及锻炼不是简单的走几步路,说这些话都是医生所说的,但是本文中的邮递员去没有病,每天都锻炼,可见医生认为别人来看病,有健康问题的原因仅仅是因为他们没有足够的锻炼,故本题选A。
3.本文的倒数第二句I walk for seven hours every day!意思为我每天步行7个小时,可见邮递员每天是步行送信的,故本题的A项正确,而其它几项意思不是真的,BC项是医生对邮递员所做的假设,不是真的,D项与文意不符,邮递员是每天步行送信,故本题应选A。
4.本文的主要意思是邮递员替她的妻子去看病,与医院医生的一段对话描述,按照常理文中发生的事应该是在医生的办公室才对,故本题选B。
考点:本文是一篇介绍邮递员替她妻子看病的记叙文。
点评:本文主要介绍了邮递员替妻子去看病,与医生的一段对话,医生不负责任,原因之一是不问谁生病,原因之二是认为人生病了就是没有进行足够的锻炼,本文应以医生所说的话为中心,反复阅读文章,推敲文意,领会医生的性格特征和邮递员在与医生对话时的心理感受。
Once there was a parrot on sale in a pet store. It was a beautiful red and blue bird. It sat on a perch in the middle of the store, so that everyone could see it when they came in. The owner was very proud of it and asked a high price for it.
One day a man went into the store. "That's a beautiful bird,"he said to the pet store owner, "But why is it so expensive? Is it unsual bird?"
"No, it's not very unusual. It's expensive because it can talk," the pet store owner said.
"I see. How can I make it talk?" the man asked.
The pet store owner asked him, "Do you see those string tied to each of the bird's legs?"
"Yes," the man answered.
"Well, you pull those strings," the pet store owner told him."That will make the parrot talk."
The man asked,"Do you mind if I try?"
"Not at all," the pet store owner said.
The man walked up to the parrot and pulled the string on its left leg. The parrot said, "Good morning."
The man pulled the string on the parrot's right leg. This time the parrot said, "How are you today?"
"That's not very interesting, " said the man. "Any parrot could do that." Then he laughed, "But what wold happen if I pulled both strings at the same time?"
"I'll fall off my perch, you fool!" the parrot said.

Long long ago a man went to India and he had never been there before. When he got there, he saw a lot of fruit, but much of it was expensive because they couldn’t grow much because there was little water. Finally he saw a big basket of some very red and long fruit. And it was the cheapest in the shop.
So he went up and asked, “How much each kilo?”and the shop keeper said, “Two rupees(卢比). ”Two rupees in India was nothing. So he bought a whole kilogram of the fruit and started eating it. But after he ate some of it:oh, my god!His eyes watered, his mouth watered and burnt, and his face became red. He jumped up and down, saying, “Ah!Ah!Ah!”
But he still continued to eat the fruit!Some people who were looking at him shook their heads and said, “You’re crazy, man. Those are chilies(辣椒)!You can’t eat so many!People use them as a condiment, but only a little bit to put into food for taste. You can’t just eat them like that. ”But the silly man said, “No, I can’t stop!I paid money for them, and now I’ll eat them up. It’s my money!”
And you think that man was silly, right?We sometimes do a lot of things like that. We spend money, time or effort doing something. And even though it’s been a long time, hard experience tells us it won’t work, and we know there’s no more hope, we still continue just because we’ve put money, time, effort and love in to it. Just like the man who ate the chilies and felt so bad but couldn’t stop because he didn’t want to waste the money he’d paid.
So even if you’ve lost something, let it go and move on. That’s better than continuing to lose.
