Started on 23rd April by Steve Posts 1 – 7 of 42
Post 1 Steve USA	Hi, everyone. What would you miss most and least if you were stuck on a desert island? For me, it would be the changing seasons in New England. I guess this will sound stupid but I’d probably miss the rain, too. I wouldn’t miss getting up at six every day to go to work, though! What about you?
Post 2 Tomas Germany	Good question. Steve, I think I’d miss different types of bread, and shopping at the supermarket. I’d miss the food most. What would I miss least? My mobile phone---I’d like to be completely quiet --- at least for a little while
Post 3 Paola Italy	I would miss the company of people because I know I’d like to have someone to share experiences with. I’d go mad on my own. And I sure wouldn’t miss junk mail(垃圾邮件) --- I hate coming home every evening and a pile of junk mail in my post box.
Post 4 Miko Japan	Hi, I would miss Manga cartoon, the Internet and Japanese food, like sushi. I’d also miss TV shows and shopping for clothes…
Post 5 Roger UK	I would miss my daily newspaper and listening to the news on TV and radio. I’d feel very cut off if I didn’t know what was happening in the world. What I’d miss least would be traffic jams in the city, particularly my journey to work.
Past 6 Jayne	Why hasn’t anyone mentioned their family? I’d be lost without my husband and two kids. They’re the most important for me. And I can’t get started in the morning without a cup of black coffee. I wouldn’t miss doing the housework!
Post 7 Jaime Mexico	It would have to be music. I couldn’t live without my music. I wouldn’t miss going to school at all or doing homework!

试题分析：本文是网站上人们关于“被困荒岛上？”所发帖子。对于被困后在荒岛上最想念的和最不想念的这一问题，不同的人有不同的想法看法。有的最想念亲人，有的最想念报纸新闻，感觉没有媒体就如同世隔绝一样，但是有几个人一致想念的是美食饮品。

1.B细节理解题。从Post6 “I’d be lost without my husband and two kids. They’re the most important for me.”判断可知Jayne 会是最想念家人的人，故B选项正确。

2.C细节理解题。根据Post5 “I would miss my daily newspaper and listening to the news on TV and radio.”可知如果没有新闻媒体Roger会感到与世隔绝，所以C选项正确。
