2.It was an extremely hot day.My younger brother Walt and I had decided to go swimming in the stream behind Mr Blickez's house,because it would be the only way to cool ourselves down.Across his farm and through some woods was a deep swimming hole supplied by several cold springs(泉).
The only problem with our plan was that this farm was guarded by a huge mean Hereford bull(公牛).Mr Blickez had told us that Elsie,the animal's name,was the meanest bull in town,maybe even the county,and we believed in him.But the hotter it got,the more we thought there was reason to doubt about what he said.For one thing,we remembered Mr Blickez liked telling tall tales; for another,Elsie seemed like a strange name for a bull.Finally,I talked Mom into asking permission for us to walk through the farm,and Mr Blickez finally agreed.
On our way across the farm,we stopped at the fence to admire the swimming hole.The sun shone brightly across the cool waters.We couldn't wait to get there.Suddenly,Walt shouted loudly.Elsie had run to him and was licking(舔) his back.I immediately hid under the fence.However,when I looked up,I saw that Elsie wasn't a big mean bull at all.She was just a friendly young cow,and she was going to keep licking my brother's back as long as he stood still.
When we discovered the truth,we were so happy.We then ran to the swimming hole and jumped in.The water was just as wonderful as we had dreamed.After that day,we had many good days and we often visited our secret swimming hole guarded by the so-called"big mean bull".
24.The author and his brother decided to go to swim becauseB.

C.Mr Blickez invited them to his house for swimming
D.they wanted to try their newly-found swimming hole

B.They had to face a very mean bull.
C.Their mother didn't want them to swim.
D.They didn't know how to get to the stream.

A.He often tells lies.
B.He is very shy.
C.He is an honest man.

点评 人物故事类阅读理解文章是高考英语常考材料之一.这类文章一般可分为人物传记和短篇故事两类.这两类阅读材料一般较长,即词数多,而且命题也较多,特别是推理判断题和事实细节题多.在做此类阅读理解题时往往是材料看得懂,题目不好做的感觉.因此,在阅读材料时要重点放在事情发展的过程和结果上,注意把握事件的发展进程及人物之间的关系,细节与主题的关系,用以说明人物性格特点的事实、作者的态度等,这些内容往往是推理判断题的命题点.至于事实细节题的解答,同学们切忌想当然或者凭印象,一定要找到文章中的原句,和题干进行比较,再做出正确选择.

17.They stood outside the door-two children in ragged(破旧的) outgrown coats.
"Any old papers,lady?"
I was busy.I wanted to say no--until I looked down at their feet,with thin little open-toed on them."Come in and I'll make you a cup of hot cocoa."They came in saying nothing.Their shoes left marks with snow and mud upon the floor.
I served them cocoa and toast with jam to protect them against the cold outside.Then I went back to the kitchen and started again on my housework.
The silence in the front room surprised me.I looked in.
The girl held the empty cup in her hands,looking at it.The boy asked me in a flat voice,"Lady…are you rich?"
"Am I rich?My god,no!"I looked at my old things in the room.
The girl put her cup back in its saucer(茶碟)carefully."Your cups match your saucers."Her voice was old,with a hunger that was not of the stomach.
They left then,holding their papers against the wind.They hadn't said thank you.They didn't need to.They had done more than that.Plain blue cups and saucers.But they said they matched.The potatoes and meat before me,a roof over our heads,my man with a steady job--these things matched,too.
I moved the chairs hack from the fire and tidied the living room.The muddy prints of small shoes were still wet upon my floor.I let them be.I want them there in case I ever forget again how very rich I am.

5.Some wonderfully creative uses of X-rays have been in the world of art.But the m ost impressive one is to uncover what has bee n covered up.Details unfolded by an X-ray of a painting can't be seen any other way.For example,in the past,paintings were often repaired if small pieces of paint fell off the canvas (帆布). These repairs cannot be seen just by looking at the painting.It takes an X-ray to discover where the repairs have been made.
An X-ray of a painting is one of the best ways to tell if it was created by a famous painter or if it is a forgery.If there is a question as to whether an old master has painted a certain painting or not,X-rays are made and compared to those of paintings that are known to be original.If the brushstrokes (笔迹),for example,are shown to be totally different than in other work done by a certain artist,then the painting is proved to be a fake copy.
Since modern paints are usually made from different materials than paints of hundreds of years ago,the image they leave on an X-ray film looks different.This is another way X-rays can be used to spot a forgery.A modem artist will try to make a forgery look hundreds of years old by painting dirty vamish on it or by using artificial means to get the varnish to look cracked.To the naked eye the forgery may look ol d,but when a careful study of the X-ray image is made,the deception is obvious.
It was common many years ago for an artist to finish a painting,decide it wasn't any good,and paint a completely different picture on top of it.Or artists would paint over others'work-it was their version of recycling.Taking an X-ray is the only way to find out if there is a picture underneath the picture you see with your eyes.Sometimes museums will be more interested in the painting beneath than the one on top,and will restore the older one by having the top layer painstakingly removed.

63.What is the main purpose of the article?C
     A.To provide information to police who are looking for stolen art.
     B.To persuade art dealers to check for fake copies before selling art.
     C.To explain how modern technology can be applied in unique ways.

     A.make repairs on paintings in the past
     B.identify the authenticity of an artwork
     C.change the materials of a forgery
     D.remove the recyclable paints

     A.comparison    B.drawback       C.trickery             D.judgement
66.Which is the best title for the passage?A
