Question

【题目】 It was Saturday again. Grace and Karen disliked Saturdays. That was another thing the twins had in common. They shared the same clothes and tied their hair in the same manner. In fact, it was hard for their classmates and teachers to tell them apart sometimes.

Unlike their classmates, they had to get up early at seven every Saturday to prepare for their lessons. Grace had to attend the art lesson and Karen had to attend her ballet (芭蕾) lesson. "How I wish I could do something different today," said the twins with one voice. All at once, an idea came to Grace and Karen at the same time. "How would you like to be me for a day?" they asked each other. It seemed like a wonderful plan to them. After giving each other a description of their own friends. Grace put on Karen's ballet dress while Karen put Grace's.

When the art lesson started, Karen was lost. Unlike Grace, Karen was poor at drawing. When the art lesson finally ended, Karen didn't dare to hand in her work.

Meanwhile, Grace was struggling (挣扎) in the ballet class as well. As she had no idea about the dance steps, she had to follow her classmates blindly. As a result, she kept knocking into them. Their ballet teacher became impatient with her, "Karen, you should remember the basic steps."

When Karen and Grace got home, they were tired out. They decided that they would never try to be someone else they were not. It seemed that the grass was not always greener on the other side.

本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了周六时，双胞胎Grace 和 Karen为了寻求不同的感受，交换了身份，分别去上了对方的课，结果出了很多纰漏。

【1】细节理解题。根据第一段“It was Saturday again. Grace and Karen disliked Saturdays.”又是星期六。格蕾丝和凯伦不喜欢星期六。可知这对双胞胎不喜欢星期六。故填No,theydidn't.

【2】细节理解题。根据“When the art lesson started, Karen was lost.”当艺术课开始的时候，凯伦很迷惑。可知凯伦感到迷惑。故填Shefeltlost.

【3】细节理解题。根据“They decided that they would never try to be someone else they were not. It seemed that the grass was not always greener on the other side.”他们决定，他们永远不会试图成为他们不能成为的其他人。隔墙的草并不总是比较绿。可知他们决定今后不想成为其他人的原因是他们认为隔墙的草并不总是比较绿。故填Becausethegrasswasnotalwaysgreenerontheotherside.
