21、 a mouse last week,and Id rather not say who won.I was cooking when my friend phoned me to help her catch a mouse she had found in the kitchen. The mouse was under the fridge when I arrived.The cat was standing guard,slowly swinging its tail.I tried to put a broom handle beneath the fridge to force
22、it out,but there were too many wires.My friend pulled up a chair at the table and I pulled a chair beside the fridge,armed with a plastic box as my trap.It was a good plan,but as is usually the case,it didnt go according to plan.After a while,the mouse put its head out.I knelt down on the floor in f
23、ront of the fridge and angled the box to create a noescape trap.The mouse moved out farther and I put the box down immediately.Unfortunately,the only thing inside the box was the mouses tail,still attached to the mouse,which was now struggling with its little legs in an attempt to take_to_its_heels.
24、The cat just sat.The mouse crawled (爬) up on the broom handle Id used earlier,and we were now eyeball to eyeball.If Id wanted to and I didntI could have seized it with my teeth.I shouted I needed something else to get the mouse.My friend handed me another container.I lowered box two over the mouses
25、body, still on the broom handle,with its tail still in box one.Despite my twobox move,the mouse escaped and shot back under the fridge.Shortly after I left,my friend found the mouse.It was bathed in the sunlight in her bedroom.The cat was sitting next to it,enjoying the rays as well.She said they we
26、re a cute couple.Learning from my mistakes,she got a boxand a lidand said the mouse all but jumped in the box and helped her seal the lid. Just a small change brought about an unexpected result.【语篇解读】本文是记叙文。猫和老鼠是冤家,和平相处似乎是不可能的。但在本篇文章里,猫和老鼠互不侵犯,相安无事。反而是作者和她的朋友大动干戈,想尽方法捉老鼠。8What does the last sentence
27、 in Paragraph 2 suggest?AThe plan ended in failure.BThe plan wasnt worth carrying out.CThe plan wasnt carried out properly.DThe plan proved to be an unexpected one.答案A推理判断题。第二段的最后一句的意思为:这是一个好计划,但是就像通常的情况那样,事情未按计划发展。再结合下文的内容可知,作者制订的捕鼠计划没能成功,以失败告终了。故选A。9What does the underlined part“take to its heels”
28、mean?AGo back.BStand up.CFight back.DGet away.答案D词义猜测题。根据下文中的“The mouse crawled (爬) up on the broom handle”“Despite my twobox move,the mouse escaped and shot back under the fridge.”可知,此处指的是老鼠在奋力逃跑。由此可知,take to ones heels的意思应是“逃走,溜掉”,与get away的意思相近。故选D。10What were the mouse and the cat doing in the b
29、edroom?AEnjoying the harmony.BComforting each other.CCelebrating the escape.DAppreciating the view.答案A推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“It was bathed in the sunlight in her bedroom.The cat was sitting next to it,enjoying the rays as well.She said they were a cute couple.”可知,老鼠和猫挨着在作者朋友的卧室里晒太阳。由此可知,它们在作者的朋友的卧室里和谐相处。故选A
30、。11Who had the last laugh?AThe author.BThe authors friend.CThe mouse.DThe cat.答案B推理判断题。根据文章内容可知,作者和朋友之前想尽办法,一心想捉住老鼠,但是失败了。作者走后,朋友从作者的失败中汲取教训,使老鼠自己跑进了陷阱里,作者的朋友成功抓到了老鼠,因此作者的朋友笑到了最后(即获得了胜利)。故选B。DSome people call it a traveling museum.Others refer to it as a living or openair museum.Built in Brazil to h

41、ling museum.A visit to Jamestown Settlement,for example,allows visitors to board three recreations of the ships that brought the first settlers”可知,第三段主要介绍了另一个与Nina类似的航船博物馆,故D项正确。15What does the author mean by the last two sentences of the passage?AThe students are interested in becoming tour guides.
42、BThe experience has changed the students learning attitude.CThe students become brave and are ready to sail the seas on their own.DThe museums are successful in teaching the students survival skills at sea.答案B句意理解题。根据文章最后两句可知,登上了哥伦布航船复制品Nina的学生成了主动学习的学生,他们成了知识的勇敢探索者。据此可以判断,最后两句意在说明,这种游览改变了学生的学习态度,故B
