Question

【题目】I was in a strange (陌生的) town. I didn’t know anyone, and I could not speak a word of the language. On the second day, I got on a bus. After riding for a few stops, I got off and walked on. I felt happy enough in the first three hours, then I decided to walk back to my hotel for lunch. After walking around for half an hour, I thought I should ask the way. The problem was that I only knew the name of the street and I pronounced (发音) it badly. I stopped to ask a newspaper seller. He gave me a paper. I shook my head (摇头) and said the name of the street again. But he gave me another paper. I had to give him some money and went on my way. Then I met a policeman and asked the way. He listened to me carefully. He said something and pointed (指) left and right and left again. I thanked him and began walking in the direction (方向) he pointed.

About an hour later, I found the houses became fewer and fewer. I came to the countryside! The only thing for me to do was to find the nearest train station.

【解析】这篇短文讲述了作者在一个陌生的小镇上的一个经历。有一天他坐公交车出去，当他想回旅馆的时候发现自己迷路了。他说不清楚当地的语言，结果在警察的指示下，走到了农村，离他的旅馆越来越远了，他只好再找到最近的火车站，坐火车回去。

【1】推理判断题。根据短文中On the second day, I got on a bus. After riding for a few stops, I got off and walked on. I felt happy enough in the first three hours, then I decided to walk back to my hotel for lunch可知，作者第二天上了一辆公交车，坐了几站之后，下车继续走路向前走，前三个小时里他都感觉很开心，然后他走回宾馆吃午饭。由此我们可以知道他乘坐公交车的时间应该是早上，故应选A。

【2】细节理解题。根据短文中I stopped to ask a newspaper seller. He gave me a paper. I shook my head (摇头) and said the name of the street again. But he gave me another paper.可知，卖报纸的人一共给了作者两张报纸，故应选B。

【3】细节理解题。根据短文中I was in a strange (陌生的) town. I didn’t know anyone, and I could not speak a word of the language.以及I thought I should ask the way. The problem was that I only knew the name of the street and I pronounced (发音) it badly可知，作者想要问路，但是他不会当地的语言。故应选C。

【4】推理判断题。根据短文的最后The only thing for me to do was to find the nearest train station.可知，作者按照警察的指示，结果来到了农村，并没有回到他的宾馆。作者只有去找到最近的火车站，由此可知他是要做火车回去。故应选C。

【5】细节理解题。根据短文的最后About an hour later, I found the houses became fewer and fewer. I came to the countryside!可知，作者按照警察指示的方向走，但是却发现房子越来越少，他到了农村了，于是他想坐火车回去，这说明他是离他要去的地方越来越远了，故应选D。
