题目内容
【题目】Towards evening, Jennifer was walking on the beach with a gentle breeze（微风）blowing through her hair. Looking up at the golden red sun ball, she was surprised by its color, deep red in the middle, softly fading（褪色）into yellow. She could hear nothing but the waves and the seagulls flying up above in the sky.
The atmosphere（空气）relaxed her. This was what she needed. “It’s getting late,” she thought, “I must go home. My parents will be wondering where I am.” She wondered how her parents would react when she got home after the three days she was missing. She kept on walking, directing herself to bungalow (平房)163, where she spent every summer holiday. The road was deserted（荒芜）. She walked slowly and silently. Just in a few hundred meters, she would have been safe in her house.
It was really getting dark now. She wished she had her favorite coat on. It might keep her really warm. She imagined having it with her. This thought dissipated(消散) when she finally saw her front door. It seemed different. Nobody had taken care of the outside garden for a few days. She was shocked: her father was usually so strict about keeping everything clean and tidy, and now…
She entered the house. First, she went into the kitchen and saw a note written by her father, “Dear Ellen, there’s some coffee ready; I went looking.” But where was Ellen? On the right side of the hallway was her parents’ room. She went in and saw her. Her mother, lying on the bed, was sleeping. Her face looked so tired, as if she hadn’t slept for days. She was really pale. Jennifer would have wanted to wake her up, but she looked too tired. So Jennifer just fell asleep beside her. When Jennifer woke up, something was different. She wasn’t in her mother’s room and she wasn’t wearing the old clothes she ran away in. She was in her cozy bed in her pajamas(睡衣).
It felt so good being back home. Suddenly she heard a voice. “Are you feeling better now, dear? You know you got us very, very scared.”

试题分析：本文属于记叙文。Jennifer离开家三天，在海边她感觉很放松，但也很担心，因为她知道父母亲一直在找她。回家以后她震惊地发现花园很杂乱，父亲一直在寻找她，没有时间打理花园，最后在温暖的家里，她感觉很舒适。
【1】B 推理判断题。根据第二段前两句The atmosphere（空气）relaxed her. This was what she needed.可知海边的空气让她感觉很放松，这也正是她需要的感觉。说明文章第一段中描述的海边的风景映衬了她放松的思想。故B正确。
【2】C 推理判断题。根据第二段三四句“It’s getting late,” she thought, “I must go home. My parents will be wondering where I am.” She wondered how her parents would react when she got home after the three days she was missing.可知Jennifer知道自己失踪三天会让父母亲很担心，所以她决定回家。故C正确。
【3】B 推理判断题。根据第三段最后两句Nobody had taken care of the outside garden for a few days. She was shocked: her father was usually so strict about keeping everything clean and tidy, and now…可知Jennifer的父亲原来是一个很整洁的人，喜欢把花园整理得很有条理。但是现在花园很杂乱，说明父亲为了寻找她，根本没有时间来照料花园。故B正确。
【4】D 推理判断题。根据文章第一段说明Jennifer在海边很放松，但想起父母在家很担忧她，于是她也很焦虑，赶紧回去了。到家的时候看见家里的花园很杂乱，她很震惊，因为父亲一直在寻找她，没有时间打理花园，最后在温暖的家里，她感觉很舒适。所以D项的感觉过程是正确的。
轻松课堂单元期中期末专题冲刺100分系列答案【题目】根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Testing the five-second ruleYou may have seen a friend drop food on the floor, pick it up, and eat it, while declaring, “Five-second rule! ” It’s said that food dropped on the floor for five seconds or less is still likely to be clean.【1】.Students at Britain’s Aston University, led by microbiology professor Anthony Hilton, tested the rule and found it to have some scientific basis. The study’s results show that food dropped for five seconds is less likely to contain bacteria than if it sits there for longer, according to Hilton.The students also found that the type of flooring where the dropped food lands has an effect. 【2】Bacteria are most likely to transfer from tiled (铺瓷砖的) surfaces to moist food when the food has stood there for more than five seconds.【3】 Therefore, consumers should still be cautious. “However, the findings of this study will bring some light relief to those who have been employing the five-second rule for years, despite a general consensus that it is purely a myth,” professor Hilton said in a statement.The research team at Aston also surveyed 500 people to find out who employs the five-second rule. Of the people surveyed, 87% said they would eat food dropped on the floor, or have done so in the past. 【4】 “Our study showed people are also more likely to follow the five-second rule, which our research has shown to be much more than an old wives’ tale,” Hilton says.Still, scientists say you should be careful about eating food dropped on the floor, especially if you have doubts about the cleanliness of the surface. 【5】
A. But is that true? |
B. Carpeted surfaces posed the lowest risk. |
C. Of those people, the majority were women. |
D. We’ve just lost our last excuse to eat food off the floor. |
E. Usually people recover from the infection in five to ten days. |
F. There is still a risk of infection if certain bacteria are present on the dropped surface. |
G. A biologist points out that one in six Americans get sick from food poisoning every year. |
