【题目】Sing a Song of People
by Lois Lenski
Sing a song of people!
Walking fast or slow;
People in the' city
Up and down they go.
People on the sidewalk,
People on the bus;
People passing, passing,
In back and front of us.
People on the subway
Underneath the ground.
People riding taxis
Round and round and round.
People with their hats on,
Going to the doors;
People with umbrellas
When it rains and pours.
People in tall buildings
And in stores below;
Riding elevators
20 lip and down they go.
People walking singly,
People in a crowd;
People saying nothing,
People talking loud.
People laughing, smiling,
Grumpy people too;
People who just hurry
And never look at you!
Sing a song of people
Who like to come and go;
Sing of city people
You see but never !

【解析】
这是一首诗歌,作者是Lois Lenski,题目是Sing a Song of People,在这首诗歌中,他描写了城市里来去匆匆、忙忙碌碌的人们。
【1】推理判断题。根据诗歌中对人们的描写以及诗歌后半部分中People who just hurry
And never look at you!这句话可知,城市里的人来去匆匆,他们在各种交通工具上,在大楼里、在电梯里,他们忙忙碌碌,从来不会看你。因此B选项符合文意。
【2】词义猜测题。根据文意可知,诗歌中描写了各式各样的人们,Walking fast or slow…Up and down they go等。再看单词所在的句子People walking singly,以及下句话People in a crowd;“人们在人群中”可知, 这两句话是相反的意思,故singly意思是“单独的,独自的”,故应选A。
【3】推理判断题。borrow借;throw扔;know知道,了解;allow允许。根据上文People who just hurry And never look at you! Sing a song of people Who like to come and go; Sing of city people…可知,城市里的人来去匆匆,从来不看你,所以你即使看到了他们,也不懂他们。故C选项放在这里符合上文意思,选C。
