【题目】In the hit film The Bucket List, Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman meet in hospital in California after they have been diagnosed with cancer. Between them they cook up(虚构) a “bucket list” ------ a to-do list of all they want to do before they kick the bucket. The movie makes you wonder what would be on your bucket list.

试题分析:本文是一篇说明文,介绍了在死亡清单这部电影中,两位主人公因患癌列出了他们在死亡之前想去的地方,这些地方包括文章中的4个小标题,分别是埃及金字塔、印度泰姬陵、中国长城、尼泊尔喜马拉雅山。
【1】B词义猜测题。根据文本第一段我们可以得知Nicholson和Morgan Freeman被诊断得了癌症,所以kick the bucket解释为死亡,他们想在死前做自己想做的事。故选B。
【2】A细节理解题。本题提问的是在哪里可以欣赏到泰姬陵的全景,故可从本文第三段标有TAJ MAHAL标题的段落中找答案。Stay at the attractive Oberoi AmarVilas overlooking the Taj.从此句中得知A选项正确,故选A。
【3】C细节理解题。本题提问的是如果你去珠穆朗玛峰进行冒险旅行时应该注意什么。从文章最后一段GAP Adventures warns that this is a physically demanding trip.得知C选项正确,故选C。
