【解析】

试题分析:九岁的罗伯特和七岁的乔安娜住在Ebenezer山上,他们的父亲有一块很大的田,每天他们都要上学,但他们的上学并不是在传统的教室里,而是通过收音机来接受知识。因为Ebenezer山太大,交通不便,很多学生都通过这种方式上学。

【1】A考查细节理解。根据第二段中They live 100,perhaps 300,miles away and like Robert and Joanna, they all go to school by radio.他们的住处之间相距100英里甚至是300英里,所以上学都靠收音机。所以答案为A选项。

【2】D考查推理判断。介绍说由于大山里交通不便,人口不集中,孩子们上学都靠收音机,而且根据第三段中School is a room at home with a two-way radio. When all students answer, lessons begin.学校是备有双向收音机的一个房子,当所有的学生都报到之后,课堂便开始了。所以可推测得知,每个家庭都备有一台特殊的收音机,答案为D选项。

【3】B考查细节理解。分析见25题,收音机是双向的,所以答案选B选项。

【4】C考查细节理解。根据第一段 In Australia they call a farm a property.在澳大利亚,他们把农场称为财产。答案为C选项。

【题目】Each spring brings a new blossom of wildflowers in the ditches(沟渠)along the highway I travel daily to work.

There is one particular blue flower that has always caught my eye. I've noticed that it blooms only in the morning hours; the afternoon sun is too warm for it. Every day for approximately two weeks, I see those beautiful

flowers.

This spring, I started a wildflower garden in our yard. I can look out of the kitchen window while doing the dishes and see the flowers. I've often thought that those lovely blue flowers from the ditch would look great in that bed alongside other wildflowers. Every day I drove past the flowers thinking, "I'II stop on my way home and dig them." "Gee, I don't want to get my good clothes dirty.,." Whatever the reason, I never stopped to dig them. My husband even gave me a folding tool one year for my trunk to be used for that expressed purpose.

One day on my way home from work, I was upset to see that the highway department had removed the ditches

and the pretty blue flowers were gone. I thought to myself, "Way to go, you waited too long. You should have done

it when you first saw them blooming this spring."

A week ago we were shocked and sad to learn that my oldest sister-in-law has a serious brain disease. She is20 years older than my husband and unfortunately, because of age and distance, we haven't been as close as we all would have liked. I couldn't help but see the connection between the pretty blue flowers and the relationship between my husband's sister and us. I do believe that God has given us some time left to plant some wonderful

memories that will bloom every year for us.

And yes, if I see the blue flowers again, you can bet I'll stop and transplant them to my wildflower garden.

【1】 Why does the writer want to start a wildflower garden in her yard?

A. Because the flowers bloom only in the morning hours.

B. Because she can see the flowers every day for two weeks.

C. Because the flowers can remind her of her oldest sister-in-law.

D. Because she enjoys the way of life in company with the flowers.

2Which statement is NOT true according to the passage?

A. The blue flowers in the ditches always draw my attention.

B. We don't get on well with the sister-in-law in practice.

C. I never stopped to dig the flowers for some reason.

D. The sister-in-law lives far from us.

3According to the passage, the writer will .

A. stop to find the flowers whenever she drives along the highway

B. plant a variety of flowers in the garden in her yard in future

C. get as wonderful memories with the sister-in-law as before

D. get more close to the sister-in-law in the following days

4What is the theme of the story?

A. Actions speak louder than words.

B. No sweets without sweat.

C. Time and tide wait for no man.

D. Opportunity belongs to whoever is prepared.
