Make a left turn onto Sus-sex Drive and continue until you see the Gallery on your left-hand side, at the corner of St. Patrick and Sussex.可知 Chateau Laurier hotel往左转到Sussex Drive直走就可以看到Gallery。而ACD都比Chateau Laurier hotel要远。故选B。

2细节理解题。根据文章Closed Christmas Day, New Year’s Day and 2 January 2012 (Monday).可知A错误,圣诞节不开;根据◆ 1 May — 30 September Open daily from 10 am to 5 pm, Thursdays to 8 pm. ◆ 1 October — 30 April Open Tuesday to Sunday from 10 am to 5 pm; Thursdays until 8 pm. Closed Mondays.可知,B错误,没有开到晚上九点,D错误,10月1日至4月30日,星期一闭馆。所以C正确。

3细节理解题。根据文章Free admission Thursdays after 5 pm.可知,周四下午5点后免费,所以选A。

【题目】I was at a dinner in London given in honor of one of the most celebrated English military (军事的)men of his time. I do not want to tell you his real name and titles. I will just call him Lieutenant General Lord Arthur Scoresby.

I cannot describe my excitement when I saw this great and famous man. There he sat, the man himself, in person, all covered with medals. I could not take my eyes off him. He seemed to show the true mark of greatness. His fame had no effect on him. The hundreds of eyes watching him, the admiration of so many people, did not seem to make any difference to him.

Next to me sat a clergyman(牧师), who was an old friend of mine. He was not always a clergyman. During the first half of his life he was a teacher in the military school at Woolwich. There was a strange look in his eye as he turned to me and said in a low voice-"privately-he is a complete fool." He meant, of course, the hero of our dinner.

This came as a shock to me. I looked hard at my friend. I could not have been more surprised if he had said the same thing about Napoleon, or Socrates, or Solomon. But I was sure of two things about the clergyman. He always spoke the truth. And, his judgment of men was good. Therefore, I wanted to find out more about our hero as soon as I could.

Some days later I got a chance to talk with the clergyman, and he told me more.

1What did the author think about the clergyman's words?

A. Completely unbelievable.

B. Funny.

C. Probably true.

D. Foolish.

2What can we conclude from the passage?

A. The hero might not be a real hero.

B. The clergyman was the hero's best friend.

C. The hero was respected by all, including the clergyman.

D. The author strongly believed the hero was a great person.

3What will be talked about following the passage?

A. How the clergyman got to know the hero.

B. What really had happened to the hero.

C. The clergyman's past life.

D. The hero's struggle for success.
