本文是一篇幽默小故事。一個剛剛移民到美國的俄國人不懂英語,在他的商店開業(yè)的時候,他掛了一個“開業(yè)大吉”的牌子吸引顧客。第二天,他看到一大群顧客都聚集在附近的一家商店,他就模仿這家店牌子上的字做了一個新牌子,掛在自己店門口,牌子上寫著“停業(yè)”。

1句意:一個俄羅斯人移民到了美國。

Russian俄羅斯人;British英國人;Canadian加拿大人;Australian澳大利亞人;根據下文“he could not read English”可知,他不懂英語,英國、加拿大和澳大利亞都是以英語為母語的國家,可以推測他是俄羅斯人。故選A。

2句意:一個朋友建議他,為了吸引顧客,應該在商店外放一塊醒目的標志牌。

people人們;neighbors鄰居;customers顧客;children孩子;根據上文“He decided to open a small shop”可知,他想開一家小商店,那么,他想要吸引的應該是顧客。故選C

3句意:然后他把它放在店外讓大家能看到的地方。

in在里面;for為了;at在(表示存在或出現的地點、場所、位置、空間);to朝;他把牌子放在商店的外面是為了讓大家都看到,需用介詞“為了”for。故選B。

4句意:他想知道他們在看什么。

asked詢問;looked看;studied學習;wondered想知道;根據“The next day, he saw a big crowd gathered around a nearby shop.”可知他很好奇,想要知道人們在看什么,故用wondered“想知道”。故選D。

5句意:雖然他看不懂英語,但他注意到牌子上的字比他的多。

Although雖然;Because因為;Since自從;However然而;此處指“盡管他不懂英語”,前面否定,后面肯定,需要用一個表轉折的連詞,故選A。

6句意:雖然他看不懂英語,但他注意到牌子上的字比他的多。

more更多;many許多;fewer更少;few幾乎沒有;聯系兩個廣告牌“Grand Opening”和Going Out of …”可知,此處指他注意到那個牌子上的字比他的多,故選A。

7句意:“我應該要有個那樣的牌子”,他暗自思忖。

spoke說;thought認為,思考;told告訴;talked談論,說;think to oneself是固定搭配,意為“心里想,暗自思忖”,他看到別人家店前因為這個標志牌吸引了很多顧客,所以他也想有這樣的標志牌。故選B。

8句意:他寫下標志牌上的字,然后回家訂了一塊新的標志牌。

big大的;bright明亮的;new新的;colorful多彩的;根據上文“I should get a sign just like that one”和下文“the man took down his “Grand Opening” sign. placed his new sign”可知,他又做了一個新的廣告牌,故選C。

9句意:第二天,他取下了他的“開業(yè)大吉”,自豪地將新牌子掛上,上面寫著“停業(yè)”。

carefully細心地;nervously緊張地;silently安靜地;proudly自豪地;根據“I should get a sign just like that one,”可知他對自己的決定是滿意的,所以他把就標志牌取下來,自豪地換上了新的,覺得這樣就能招來客人;故用自豪地proudly。故選D。

10句意:第二天,他取下了他的“開業(yè)大吉”,自豪的將新牌子掛上,上面寫著“停業(yè)”。

Style風格;Business生意;America美國;Service服務;根據前面地標志牌“Grand Opening”可知后面他換的廣告牌是和它相關的,而且本文是一則幽默故事,故可知他寫的是有趣的東西,而“Going Out of Business”,剛好與舊的廣告牌意思相反且有幽默感。故選B。

【題目】 Everyone needs friends. We all like to feel close to someone. It is nice to have a friend to talk, laugh, and to do things with. Surely there is also some time when we need to be alone. We don’t always want people around. But we would feel lonely if we never had a friend.

No two people are just the same. Sometimes friends don’t get along well. It doesn’t mean they no longer like each other. Most of time they will make up (重歸于好) and become friends again.

Sometimes friends move away. Then we feel very sad. We miss them very much, but we can call them or write to them. And we would even see them again. And we can make new friends. It is surprising to find out how much we like new people when we get to know them.

There is more good news for people with friends. They live longer than people who don’t have friends. Why? It could be that they are happier. Being happy helps you stay well. If someone cares about you, you will take better care of yourself.

1The first paragraph tells us that ________.

A.none need friends

B.we always need friends around us
