Question

【题目】 Captain Nemo seemed very sure that that savages could not harm us. I slept well. When I went outside the next morning, I saw that there were many more natives on the beach. It was low tide, and many of them had come quite close to the Nautilus. I asked Conseil to get a net, and we used it to get some shells from the water. They were very pretty shells. Suddenly, I saw a very rare and beautiful shell. We looked at it together. One of the savages threw a stone at us and broke the shell. Conseil was very angry. He fired his gun at the savage. Then, we noticed that the savages had come very close to the Nautilus in their canoes. A few moments later, they began to shoot their arrows at us. We went inside and told Captain Nemo about it. He ordered his men to close the doors.

"But what will happen tomorrow?" I asked. "You will have to open the doors to get more air, and the savages will come in."

"Do you think they will dare?"

"I am sure they will."

"We have nothing to fear," he said again.

Captain Nemo asked me about our trip to the island. I told him what we had seen and done. We talked about another French sailor called D'Urville, whose ship was wrecked in the Torres Strait. He told me again that the high tide the next day would lift the Nautilus off the reef. (选自《海底两万里》)

本文节选自名著《海底两方里》，文章说的是“鹦鹉螺”号潜艇触礁后发生的事情。当“鹦鹉螺”号潜艇触礁无法行进时，海滩上的野人并没有向他们进攻。但是，当潜艇上的人用网子捞海中的贝壳时，海滩上的野人就向他们袭击，他们不得不进入潜艇，关上门。还好，第二天的涨潮会使潜艇脱离暗礁。

【1】词义猜测题。natives本地人；shells贝壳；Nautilus 鹦鹉螺；canoes独木舟；根据“When I went outside the next morning, I saw that there were many more natives on the beach.”可知第二天早上，当我走到外面时，我看到海滩上有更多的当地人，可推测出该单词的意思是“natives”，故选A。

【2】细节理解题。根据“I asked Conseil to get a net, and we used it to get some shells from the water.”可知我叫康塞尔拿一张网来，我们用它从水中捞贝壳，故选C。

【3】细节理解题。根据“One of the savages threw a stone at us and broke the shell. Conseil was very angry. He fired his gun at the savage.”可知一个野人向我们扔了一块石头，把贝壳打碎了，故选D。

【4】推理判断题。根据“He told me again that the high tide the next day would lift the Nautilus off the reef. ”可知他又对我说，第二天涨潮的时候，“鹦鹉螺”号就要离开暗礁了，可推测出故事发生在“鹦鹉螺”号停在暗礁上的时候，故选C。
