小题1:词义猜测题。根据短文第一段Mr and Mrs Jackson bought a big farm and they were always busy working on it .Jackson夫妻二人买了一个大农场,他们一直忙着在农场上劳作。联系下文,They had a good harvest every year.应是他们每年有一个好的收成,故答案为B。
小题2:推理判断题。根据短文第一段One of their sons Victor studied at a high school.The boy studied hard and did well in his lessons.
可知他们的一个儿子学习很好,联系下文It made them happy.故答案为A。
小题3:推理判断题。根据短文She told her friend how clever her son was.She spoke very loudly.All the people on the bus could hear her.“Oxford University,”said Mrs Jackson happily.可知,她是想让每个人知道:她儿子学习好,要去上名牌大学,故选C。
小题4:推理判断题。根据短文第三段She spoke very loudly.All the people on the bus could hear her.可知,她说得声音很大,车上的所有人都能听到。联系下文,别人也看出了她炫耀的意思,故选B。
小题5:推理判断题。根据短文第三段On the bus she met one of her friends and they hadn’t seen each other for fifteen years.可推知A不对,在车上她只遇到一个老朋友;并且从文中可知,坐在她对面的女士不是她的朋友,故B不正确;从文中那位女士的几句话“I’m sure he’ll meet Jim White.”“He’s my son,”He is one of the professors(教授).可推知她的意图是想制止Mrs Jackson谈论她的儿子,让她知道天外有天,故正确答案应为C。
