题目内容
【题目】阅读下面材料,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项选出最佳选项。
A
Leon was a postman. Every day wake up and feed his 37 cats. Leon didn't really want 37 cats, but one by one they had appeared on his doorstep, and Leon had taken them in.
Every day, after feeding the cats, Leon would collect the mail from the red postboxes in the village and take it home. “If only I had 37 helpers instead of 37 cats, my job would be so much easier, ” Leon thought. Just then, the cats started meowing for their dinner. That gave Leon an idea. That night, Leon worked late making 37 cat-sized postal backpacks. Then, he went around to each postbox, putting up signs that read: postbox closed! Please use the postal cat service.
The next day, Leon put a backpack on each cat and dropped off the cats around the village. Leon knew that the cats would be happy walking around all day. He also knew that they would always come home for dinner. Leon spent the day relaxing, waiting for his helpers to return. Leon was right. The cats did return, but they did not bring home many letters. Some got the letters wet. Some bit off the corners of the letters. Some even lost their backpacks. “”Cats are just too unreliable(不可靠的),” Leon thought.
Just then, a strange sound came from the outside of Leon's door. A dirty dog was waiting to be invited inside. That gave Leon an idea.

【解析】 短文讲述了邮递员Leon收留了37只猫, 有一天突发奇想让猫收信件回家的故事。
(1)细节理解题。文章第二段一开始写到每天Leon疲于每天出去到村庄里收集村民们寄的信,后来就想出了一个让他的37只猫帮他收信的办法,从第二段的倒数第三句话“That night, Leon worked late making 37 cat-sized postal backpacks.”可以这题选择A 。
(2)推理判断题。从最后一段的文意可以推断出C项的内容就是本题的答案,由于之前的37只猫都unreliable(不可靠的),所以作者将会请狗进家门,开始做他的得力助手。
(3)主旨大意题。通过全文得出文章的作者属于很幽默滑稽的性格,故选D。
