2．Miss Gogers taught physics in a New York school．Last month she explained to one of her classes about sound，and she decided to test them to see how successful she had been in her explanation．She said to them，"Now I have a brother in Los Angeles．If I was calling him on the phone and at the same time you were 75feet away，listening to me from across the street，which of you would hear what I said earlier，my brother or you and for what reason？"Tom at once answered，"Your brother．Because electricity travels faster than sound waves．""That's every good，"Miss Gogers answered； but then one of the girls raised her hand，and Miss Gogers said．"Yes，Kate．"
"I disagree，"Kate said．"Your brother would hear you earlier because when it's 11o'clock here it's only 8o'clock in Los Angeles．"

分析 本文主要讲述了一位物理老师在课堂上就声音的问题提问而学生的回答而展开的故事，
解答 11．D细节题．根据文章内容，Miss Gogers taught physics in a New York school．Last month she explained to one of her classes about sound…由此可知Miss Gogers 在物理课上教学生关于声音的知识，结合选项，故选D
12．C 细节题．根据文章内容，If I was calling him on the phone and at the same time you were 75feet away，listening to me from across the street，which of you would hear what I said earlier，my brother or you and for what reason？"在给学生讲述了声音的知识后，她马上提了一个关于打电话的问，目的在于引起同学们继续学习的兴趣，同时检测同学们是否掌握了该部分知识．结合选项，故选C
13．B 细节题．根据文章内容． Because electricity travels faster than sound waves电波的传播速度比声波快，这是Tom的回答．结合选项，故选B
14．A 细节题．根据文章内容，I disagree，"Kate said．"Your brother would hear you earlier because when it's 11o'clock here it's only 8o'clock in Los Angeles．"由此可知，Kate不同意Tom的说法．因为她认为当洛杉矶8点的时候，纽约是11点，结合选项，故选A
