题目内容
In the 19th century England people liked to go to the seaside. In those days, ladies wore long bathing dresses, and men wore bathing suits. Women did not walk about on the beach in their bathing dresses. They hired a bathing machine. A bathing machine was used for changing in, and for taking the bather down to the sea. It cost 2 pence to hire a machine and an attendant (f~ ~). When she had paid, the bather climbed up the back steps and got into the bathing machine. Then she changed into her bathing dress. When she had changed , the machine was pulled down to the sea. The bathing machine stopped in the water and the bather went down the front steps into the water. If she did not want to get into the sea, the attendant pulled her in.

1--3 ADB
解析:
本文是介绍英国民间风俗的文章:十九世纪英国妇女游泳的情况。
1.细节理解题。短文第三、四两句这样交代:Women did not walk about on the beach in their bathing dresses. They hired a bathing machine.(妇女们不穿她们浴用连衣裙在沙滩上步行。他们租用一台洗浴机。)从此可知使用洗浴机的人就是洗浴的妇女。故A是正确的答案。
2.细节理解题。文章第五句说上A bathing machine was used for changing in…(洗浴机被用来更换服装……)显然,在这个机器里更衣是为使洗澡人在下水之前不被人看见了。
3.细节理解题,只是要与整篇文章所提供的活动顺序联系起来,其活动的顺序正是该题检测的内容:付钱、租车、换衣、去沙滩、出洗浴机、下水。所以B项是正确的答案。

When you read a story in English, do you read it for the story or for the English? This is a 1 that is not so foolish 2 it may seem. For I 3 that many students of English 4 far more attention to the story than to the English. They read and 5 and for a long time 6 remember the story, but do not care to study the 7 of words and 8 in it. For instance, they care for the memory of 9 the mystery (神秘) in the story is solved, but do not remember a 10 sentence in the story and cannot 11 what preposition is used before or after a certain 12 in the speech of a 13 character.
Of course, it is all right to read and enjoy and 14 a story, and so 15 as one wants to 16 the story only, one need not bother (费心) about the language.

Not only very carefully but also aloud, and that again and again 21 you know the passage by heart and can 22 it as if it were your own. Positively (正面) this will teach you many 23 words and phrases; negatively (负面) it will help you to avoid many errors and faults in expression. Incidentally I have found from 24 that intelligent copying is a help to 25 by heart.
