题目内容
阅读下列短文，从所给的四个选项中，选出最佳答案。
Dwight W. Morrow was an American ambassador (大使) to Mexico during the 1920s. He is remembered as a smart diplomat (精明的外交家). He is also remembered by his family and friends for one of his absent-mindedness (心不在焉).
Once while on a train, a conductor came to Morrow, asking for his ticket. He began to search his pockets. No ticket appeared. Morrow began searching his suitcase (行李箱). "Never mind, sir," said the conductor, seeing how anxious Morrow was becoming and trying to comfort him. "When you find your ticket just post it to the station. I'm sure you have it somewhere."
"I'm sure, too," said the diplomat as he continued his search. "But I must find it. I need to know where I'm going!"
Another time Morrow got off a train in New York and hurried to a telegraph office, where, feeling not unlike a small boy who had got lost, he sent the following to his secretary, "I am in New York but don't know why." Within minutes came the short reply, "You are not supposed to be in New York. You should be in Princeton giving a lecture."
(1)The account mainly shows Morrow's _______. ［ ］ A. cleverness as a diplomat B. foolishness C. sense of humor (幽默) D. absent-mindedness (2) When Morrow could not show his ticket, the conductor was ___________. ［ ］ A. not patient B. understanding C. feeling sorry D. angry
(3)Morrow was very upset when he couldn't find the ticket because ______. ［ ］ A. he had forgotten where he was going B. he would be punished if he couldn't show his ticket C. the conductor looked impatient D. the conductor might think he was lying
(4)When Morrow got off the train in New York, _________. ［ ］ A. he forgot the address B. he forgot his suitcase C. he did not know that he was in a wrong city D. his secretary wasn't there to meet him
(5)Except for his absent-mindedness, Morrow was _________. ［ ］ A. a forgetful traveler B. a great lecturer C. a popular joker D. a clever diplomat

My wife and I go to the theater whenever we can．But before we buy tickets, we like to know if the play is good or bad．When a new play opens．We usually read the newspaper to get information about it．Last week a new play opened at the theater．The newspaper story said it was very interesting so we decided to go on Saturday night．
My wife took a long time to make up her mind what to wear and we left our house a little late．By the time we got to the theater, the first act had already begun．We were sorry we missed part of the play, because the rest of it was very funny．The newspaper had been right．It was very good．
After the play was over, we met some friends we hadn’t seen for a long time．They wanted to go to a night club．It had been many years since my wife and I had gone dancing, but I finally agreed．By the time we got home, it was about two o’clock in the morning．I’m got used to staying out so late and I was extremely tired．
When I was younger．I didn’t have the money to go out for an evening like this．Now I can afford it．I don’t have the energy to really enjoy it．

To hitch-hike successfully in any country you must be able to do two things: attract attention and at the same time convince the driver at a glance that you do not intend to rob or murder him. To fulfill the first requirement you must have some mark to distinguish you at once from all other hikers. A serviceman, for instance, should wear his uniform, a student his scarf. In a foreign country an unmistakable indication of your own nationality will also arrest a driver’s attention.
When I hitch-hiked 9,500 miles across the United States and back recently I wore a well-tailored suit, a bowler hat and a trench coat, and carried a pencil-thin rolled black umbrella. My suitcase was decorated with British flags. Having plenty of luggage, moreover, I was not likely to be suspected of being a dangerous lunatic(精神病患者). I then had to get across to the driver the idea that I was a real traveler, and needed to get somewhere cheaply.
But even with careful preparation, you must not assume that the task will be easy. You should be prepared to wait a little, for there are drivers who confess to a fierce prejudice against, （not to say hatred of）, hitch-hikers, and would no more pick up a hiker than march from Aldermaston to London. In America, my average wait was half-an-hour, and my longest two hours, but I have heard of people waiting all day; they probably took less pains to make themselves easy to notice.
Nor must you assume that all the drivers who stop for you are nice, normal people. On one occasion I found myself driving with two boys of about nineteen who turned out to be on the run from the police, and were hoping to use me as an alibi. There are also lesser(较小的) risks: you may find yourself in the car of a Fascist fanatic, a Mormon missionary(传教士), or just a bad driver. You cannot tell, of course until you are in the car. But you soon learn the art of the quick excuse that gets you out again.w(w w.ks&5 u.c*o m
If the hitch-hiker in the U.S. will remember that he is seeking the willingness of drivers to give him a free ride, and is prepared to give in exchange entertainment and company, and not go to sleep, he will come across the remarkable, almost legendary, hospitality of American of the West. It will also help if he can drive—I think that I drove myself about 4,500 of those 9,500 miles I hitch-hiked in the States.
A hitch-hiking serviceman should wear his uniform .
A. so as not to look too unusual
B. to attract attention
C. to show he is on duty
D. to put the driver at ease
In paragraph 3, we learn that the writer .
A. has sometimes failed to hitch a ride
B. has marched from Aldermaston to London
C. has always been successful in hitching a ride
D. has had to wait for long hours for a ridew(w w.ks&5 u.c*o m
The main idea of Paragraph 4 is that .
A. it is dangerous to be in a car with strangers
B. hitch-hiking may turn out to be risky sometimes
C. a hitch-hiker must also learn the art of quick excuse
D hitch-hikers might come across bad drivers
In the last paragraph, the writer mainly wants to tell us that a hitchhiker should .
A. not talk to the driver too much
B. fall asleep to make it a peaceful ride
C. try to make himself pleasant and entertaining
D. seek the willingness of drivers
A suitable title for the passage would be .
A. “The Art of Hitch-hiking”
B. “An Englishman’s View of the U.S.”
C. “An English Hitch-hiker”
D. “The joys and Dangers of hitch-hiking
