A policeman was questioning 3 blondes who were training to become detectives. To test their skills in recognizing a suspect, he shows the first blonde a picture for5 seconds and then hides it.

“This is your suspect, how would you recognize him?"

The first blonde answers, "That's easy, we'll catch him fast because he only has one eye!" The policeman says, "Well...uh...that's because the picture shows his profile."

Slightly confused by this ridiculous response, he flashes the picture for 5 seconds at the second blonde and asks her, "This is your suspect, how would you recognize him?"

The second blonde giggles, flips her hair and says, "Ha! He'd be too easy to catch because he only has one ear!"

The policeman angrily responds, "What's the matter with you two? Of course only one eye and one ear are SHOWING because it's a picture of his profile!! Is that the best answer you can come up with?"

Extremely frustrated at this point, he shows the picture to the third blonde and in a very testy voice asks "This is your suspect, how would you recognize him?" He quickly adds, "Think hard before giving me a stupid answer."

The blonde looks at the picture intently for a moment and says, "Hmmmm…the suspect wears contact lenses."

The policeman is surprised and speechless because he really doesn't know himself if the suspect wears contacts or not. "Well, that's an interesting answer...wait here for a few minutes while I check his file and I’ll get back to you on that." He leaves the room and goes to his office, checks the suspect's file in his computer, and comes back with a beaming smile on his face. "Wow! I can't believe it...it's TRUE! The suspect does in fact wear contact lenses. Good work! How were you able to make such an acute observation?"

"That's easy," the blonde replied. "He can't wear regular glasses because he only has one eye and one ear."

试题分析:本文叙述了一个警察训练几个美女是否有侦探的潜能的有趣的故事。

1. 细节题。根据文章第一句A policeman was questioning 3 blondes who were training to become detectives.可知这个警察正在测试他们是否有做侦探的潜能。所以才给他们看图片。故B正确。

2. 细节题。根据第四段第一句Slightly confused by this ridiculous response中的confused可知对于第一个金发女郎的反应很惊讶。故B正确。

3. 细节题。根据文章第五段The second blonde giggles, flips her hair and says, "Ha! He'd be too easy to catch because he only has one ear!"可知她认为这个人很容易就抓到了,所以她认为这个任务很简单。故B正确。

4. 推理题。根据最后一段"That's easy," the blonde replied. "He can't wear regular glasses because he only has one eye and one ear."可知她根本就不知道照片里的人戴了隐形眼镜,只是胡乱猜的。她的理由也很荒谬:他只有一个眼睛和一个耳朵,所以无法佩戴正常的眼睛。故A正确。

While shell-like roofs, unlike anything else in the world, make the Sydney Opera House an image of timeless beauty. It is famous for being a symbol, not only of a city, but a whole country and condition too.

Its creator, Danish architect Jorn Utzon , turned 85 last Wednesday. And he was awarded the Prizker Prize, known as the Nobel Prize of Architecture, on April 6. But Utzon has never seen his Opera House.

The story began in 1957 when Utzon won an international competition to design an opera house in Sydney.

But not everyone was enthusiastic (热心的 ) . Utzon left his Opera project in 1966 after an argument with the local government and a storm of public criticism over the building’s design. It was not completed until seven years later and Utzon has never returned to Australia to see the result of his work.

“Utzon made a building well ahead of its time, and he persevered (坚持) through criticism to build a building that changed the image of an entire country,” said Frank Gehry, a Pritzer Architecture Prize judge.

Although the Sydney Opera House was Utzon’s masterpiece, it damaged his career. Upon his return to Denmark, he found work hard to come by , so he become a teacher at a university in Hawaii.

Utzon said he once saw posters of the Opera House. The interiors were different from his design. But, he said, “There is no regret, for it gave me such a wonderful experience in Australia and towards which I only have love and appreciation .”

Britain’s Queen Elizabeth opened the Opera House in 1973, and it now holds around 3000 events every year. It is recognized as one of the great symbolic buildings of the 20th century.

1.The Sydney Opera House was completed_____.

A. in 1957 B. in 1906

C. in 1973 D. in 1980

2.Utzon has never seen his Opera House because _______.
