题目内容
1.He met her at a party.She was outstanding; many guys were after her,but noboy paid any attention to him.After the party,he invited her for coffee.She was surprised,so as not to appear rude,she went along.As they sat in a nice coffee shop,he was too nervous to say anything and she felt uncomfortable.Suddenly,he asked the waiter,"Could you please give me some salt?I'd like to put it in my coffee."
They stared at him.He turned red,but when the salt came,he put it in his coffee and drank.Curious,she asked,"Why salt with coffee?"He explained,"When I was a little boy,I lived near the sea.I liked playing on the sea.I could feel it salty,like salty coffee.Now every time I drink it,I think of my childhood and my hometown.I miss it and my parents,who are still there."
She was deeply moved.A man who can admit that he's homesick must love his home and care about his family.He must be responsible.She talked too,about her faraway hometown,her childhood,her family.That was the start to their love story.
They continued to date.She found that he met all her requirements.He was tolerant,kind,warm and careful.And to think she would have missed the catch if not for the salty coffee!So they married and lived happily together.And every time she made coffee for him,she put in some salt,the way he liked it.
After 40years,he passed away and left her a letter which said:
My dearest,please forgive my life-long lie.Remember the first time we dated?I was so nervous that I asked for salt instead of sugar.It was hard for me to ask for a change,so I just went ahead.I never thought that we would hit it off.Many times,I tried to tell you the truth,but I was afraid that it would ruin everything.
Sweetheart,I don't exactly like salty coffee.But as it mattered so much to you,I've learnt to enjoy it.Having you with me was my greatest happiness.If I could live a second time,I hope we can be together again,even if it means that I have to drink salty coffee for the rest of my life.

52.D 推理判断题.A这个人喜欢喝咸的咖啡.因为紧张他说要加盐,所以A选项错误;B项这个人擅长撒谎,而实际上这一生他就撒过一次谎,而且是因为太爱自己的妻子了,所以B选项错误;C是这个人非常想念家人,文章没有提到.根据最后一段的But as it mattered so much to you,I'velearnt to enjoy it.Having you with me was my greatest happiness.但因为它对你如此重要,所以我学会了享受它.有你在我身边是我最大的幸福.可知这个人非常爱这个女士.故选D.
53.B 主旨大意题.文章主要讲述了男主人公因为紧张而不小心说错话,让女主人公认为他是喜欢喝咸咖啡,为了自己的爱人,男主人公一直都喝着咸咖啡.文章就是围绕咸咖啡展开的,咸咖啡里面包含的是默默的爱,所以"咸咖啡"是最好的标题.故选B.
