【题目】根据短文理解,选择正确答案。
Everybody has one of those days when everything goes wrong. This is what happened to Harry.
He got up one morning very late because he had forgotten to wind up his alarm clock(闹钟). He tried to shave(刮脸)quickly and cut himself. When he got dressed he got blood all over his clean shirt, so he had to find another one. The only other shirt that was clean needed ironing(熨), so he ironed it. While he was ironing it, there was a knock at the door. It was the man to read the electricity meter(表). He showed him where the meter was, said good-bye and found that the iron had burnt a hole in his shirt. So he had to wear the one with the blood on it after all. By this time it was very late, so he decided he couldn't go to work by bus. He telephoned for a taxi to take him to work. The taxi arrived and Harry got in and began to read the newspaper.
In another part of the town, a man had killed a woman with a knife and was seen to run away in a taxi. When Harry's taxi stopped outside his office, a policeman happened to be standing there. He saw the blood on Harry's shirt, and took him to the police station. He was kept till 3 o'clock in the afternoon before the police were sure that he was not the man they wanted. When he finally arrived at the office at about four, his boss took a look at him and told him to go away and find another job.

【解析】本文属于记叙文,主要介绍了Harry所遭遇到的不幸的一天。
(1)B 推理判断题。本文中Harry从早晨到晚上遇见的每一件事情都很不幸,最后还被老板解雇了。说明这一天对他来说是很不幸运的。故B项正确。
(2)D 细节排序题。根据第二段When he got dressed he got blood all over his clean shirt. The only other shirt that was clean needed ironing(熨), so he ironed it. While he was ironing it, there was a knock at the door. It was the man to read the electricity meter(表). So he had to wear the one with the blood on it after all.可知Harry把血弄到衬衫上,他要换另外一件衬衫,但是那件衬衫需要熨烫,但是在烫的时候,有电工来抄表,他接待他,结果衬衫被烫坏了,他只能穿有血的衬衫。故D项正确。
(3)C 细节理解题。根据He showed him where the meter was, said good-bye and found that the iron had burnt a hole in his shirt. So he had to wear the one with the blood on it after all.可知那件干净的衬衫被烫坏了,所以他不得不穿那件有血的衬衫。故C项正确。
(4)B 根据第三段前三句In another part of the town, a man had killed a woman with a knife and was seen to run away in a taxi. When Harry's taxi stopped outside his office, a policeman happened to be standing there. He saw the blood on Harry's shirt, and took him to the police station.可知一个杀人犯在杀人以后也乘坐出租车逃跑了。而Harry恰好穿着带血的衬衫坐着出租车,所以警察怀疑他就是杀人犯,于是就把他带到警察局了。故B正确。
(5)C 推理判断题。根据最后一句When he finally arrived at the office at about four, his boss took a look at him and told him to go away and find another job.可知老板解雇他是因为他下午四点才到办公室,实在太晚了。故C项正确。
