Question

【題目】 The class was right in the middle of a math problem. Suddenly, Joe laughed out loud at the back of the classroom. Everyone stopped and looked at him.

“What are you laughing at?” Mr. Steinman.

“Nothing.” Joe answered.

“Joe. Office. Now,” Mr. Steinman became angry.

“Fine, I’d rather be there anyway.” Joe said.

“I’ll be calling home after school, too,” Mr. Steinman said.

“Ask my mom to buy pizza for dinner when you call,” Joe suggested.

His teacher opened his mouth to reply, but thought better of it. Instead, he continued the maths lesson. Joe took his time to get to the door. He stopped to sharpen his pencil.

“Joe! Get out now. You don’t need your pencil in the office,” Mr. Steinman said.

“I want to be prepared,” he tried to look confused, even though he knew what he was doing was wrong.

Joe left the classroom. Sadly, he didn’t know how to do his homework, which made him sigh (嘆氣). Then he arrived at the office and sat in his familiar chair, waiting to get shouted at again. Once he got home, he’d be in trouble with his parents, and tomorrow he’d repeat the whole process.

“Another day, another detention,” he sighed, wondering why maths was so hard. He made up his mind to work hard in maths, because he still wanted to be good at it.

Answer 1

【答案】

【1】B

【2】D

【3】C

【4】A

【5】B

【解析】

這篇短文主要講述了在一節(jié)數(shù)學(xué)課上，Joe由于不會(huì)做題，而制造噪音，被老師叫到辦公室懲罰。最后他下定決心努力學(xué)好數(shù)學(xué)。

【1】推理判斷。Science.科學(xué)；Maths.數(shù)學(xué)；English.英語(yǔ)； Music.音樂(lè)。根據(jù)文中“The class was right in the middle of a math problem. Suddenly, Joe laughed out loud at the back of the classroom. Everyone stopped and looked at him.”可知，全班同學(xué)正解一道數(shù)學(xué)題。突然，喬在教室后面大聲地笑了起來(lái)。大家都停下來(lái)看著他。可知Joe是不愿意上數(shù)學(xué)課。故選B。

【2】細(xì)節(jié)理解。Happy.高興的；.Sad.悲傷地；Relaxed.放松的；Mad.生氣的。根據(jù)文中“What are you laughing at?” Mr. Steinman.”Nothing.” Joe answered.”Joe. Office. Now,”Mr. Steinman became angry.”可知，當(dāng)Joe笑的時(shí)候，Mr. Steinman感到非常的生氣。故選D。

【3】細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)文中“Ask my mom to buy pizza for dinner when you call,”Joe suggested.”可知，Joe讓老師告訴母親晚飯給他買披薩。故選C。

【4】詞句猜測(cè)。Punishment.懲罰； Invitation.邀請(qǐng)；Graduation.畢業(yè)；Praise.表?yè)P(yáng)。根據(jù)上文“Once he got home, he’d be in trouble with his parents, and tomorrow he’d repeat the whole process.”及下文“Another day”可知，下文是“又一次懲罰”。detention的意思是“拘留，懲罰”，相當(dāng)于Punishment.。根據(jù)題意，故選A。

【5】推理判斷。根據(jù)文中““Another day, another detention,” he sighed,”可知，喬不喜歡上數(shù)學(xué)課，喬經(jīng)常受到數(shù)學(xué)老師的懲罰。故選B。
