  A young man once went to town and bought himself a pair of trousers. When he got home, he went to his bedroom and tried them on. He found that they were about two inches longer.

  He went to the kitchen where his mother and his two sisters were washing up the tea things. “This pair of trousers is too long,” he said. “It needs shortening(缩短) by about two inches. Would one of you mind doing this for me, please?” His mother and his sisters were busy and none of them said anything. However, the mother shortened the trousers by two inches after she had finished washing, but she did not tell her daughters about it.

  Later on, after supper, the elder sister remembered her brother's trousers. She was a kind-hearted girl, so she did it again without saying anything to anyone. The younger sister went to the cinema, but when she came back, she, too, remembered what her brother had said, so she took two inches off the legs of the new trousers.

  You can imagine the look on the young man's face when he put the trousers on the next morning.

答案:B;C;D;C;A
解析:

  1.这是一道推理判断题.短文第一段中叙述了一个年轻人曾经进城给自己买了一条裤子.当他回到家中试穿这条裤子时,发现裤子长了大约2英寸.根据该段中“he went to his bedroom and tried them on”可判断出,这个年轻人在城里买裤子时没有试穿.

  2.这是一道推理判断题.短文第二段叙述了年轻人到厨房,向母亲和两个姐妹说明买的裤子太长,需要剪短大约2英寸,恳求她们三人中的任何一人来帮助剪短裤子.从该段中“His mother and his sisters were busy and none of them said anything”可以判断出,他的母亲和姐妹当时没有回答此事,是因为她们太忙,没有时间来回来答他.

  3.这是一道事实细节题.短文第二、三段描述了裤子被剪短的经过.先是这位年轻人的母亲在洗完茶具后,默默地把他的裤子剪短了2英寸,但没有告诉她的两个女儿;后来这个年轻人的好心姐姐想起了弟弟的裤子,便剪短了2英寸,也没有对别人讲;这位年轻人的妹妹看完电影回来后也想起了哥哥让做的事,又把裤子的裤腿剪短了2英寸.据此可以看出,这个年轻人的妹妹是3个人中最后剪短他的裤子的人.

  4.这是一道数据计算题.年轻人的母亲和两个姐妹在没有互相告知自己已剪短了裤腿的情况下,各自把新买的裤腿剪短了大约2英寸.由此可计算出,这条裤子总计被剪短了大约6英寸.

  5.这是一道推理判断题.阅读全文可知,这位年轻人买的新裤子本来长了大约2英寸,可他的母亲和两个姐妹分别剪短了2英寸,共剪短了6英寸.本来剪短2英寸穿上正合身,可多剪短了4英寸.由此可以判断出,当这位年轻人在第二天早上穿裤子时,发现这条裤子被剪短这么多,心情肯定是很悲伤的.
