26、l withC.be fed up withD.be satisfied with答案:B解析:细节理解题。根据keep on good terms with前面的内容可推知它的意思是“与保持友好关系”。BA sense of humour is just one of the many things shared by Alfred and Anthony Melillo,64-year-old twin brothers from East Haven who made history in February 2002.On Christmas Eve,1992,Anthony had a
27、 heart transplant from a 21-year-old donor.Two days before Valentines Day in 2002,Alfred received a 19-year-old heart,marking the first time on record that twin adults each received heart transplants.“Im 15 minutes older than him,but now Im younger because of my heart and Im not going to respect him
28、,” Alfred said with a grin(咧嘴笑),pointing to his brother while talking to a roomful of reporters,who laughed frequently at their jokes.While the twins knew that genetics might have played a role in their condition,they recognized that their eating habits might have also contributed to their heart pro
29、blems.“Wed put half a pound of butter on a steak.I overdid it on all the food that tasted good,so I guess I deserved what I got for not dieting properly.”The discussion moved to Anthonys recovery.In the five years since his heart transplant,he had been on an exercise program where he regularly rode
30、a bicycle for five miles,swam each day,and walked a couple of miles.He was still on medication,but not nearly as much as Alfred,who was just in the early stage of his recovery.“Right now I feel pretty young and Im doing very well,” Anthony said.“I feel like a new person.”Alfred said his goal,of cour
31、se,was to feel even better than his brother.But,he added,“I love my brother very much.Were very close and Im sure well do just fine.”24What did Alfred and Anthony have in common?A.Lifespan.B.Career goals.C.A sense of humour.D.Love for bicycling.答案:C解析:细节理解题。由第一段第一句可知,艾尔弗雷德和安东尼的共同点之一就是他们都有幽默感。25What
32、did Alfred and Anthony think caused their heart problems?A.Exercise.B.Diet.C.Surgery.D.Medicines.答案:B解析:推理判断题。由第三段最后一句可推知,他们认为自己的心脏病是由于没有适当的饮食造成的。26Why did Alfred say,“Im 15 minutes older than him,but now Im younger because of my heart”?A.His heart transplant surgery was more successful than Anthony
33、s.B.His recovery from the heart surgery was faster than Anthonys.C.His exercise program was better than Anthonys.D.His new heart was younger than Anthonys.答案:D解析:细节理解题。由第二段第一句可知,艾尔弗雷德认为自己比安东尼小,是因为他新移植的心脏比安东尼的年轻。27This article is mainly about .A.the danger of heart transplant surgeryB.becoming young
34、by getting a new heartC.the effect of genetics on the heartD.the twin brothers who received heart transplants答案:D解析:主旨大意题。由整篇文章来看,主要讲述的是双胞胎兄弟艾尔弗雷德和安东尼进行心脏移植的事情。CCharles Chaplin,who died in 1977,is considered one of the greatest and funniest actors in the history of the cinema.During his lifetime,he

39、lent.The equipment for adding sound to films had not yet been developed.The development of films with sound became a problem for Chaplin,as he was uncertain about making films with dialogues.Instead,he continued to make films without dialogues,but he added music,which he wrote himself.It isnt what h
40、e says that makes us laugh.His comedy doesnt depend on words.It depends on little actions which mean the same thing to people all over the world.Chaplins later films,however,were not well received.Chaplin lived most of his life in America and the last years in Switzerland,where he was buried at Chri
41、stmas in 1977,at the age of eighty-eight.There was sadness all over the world at the news of his death.In his book,Chaplin tells us how to succeed in life.He says,“You have to believe in yourself.Thats the secret.”28Chaplin is regarded as king of comedy mainly because .A.he acted out the common huma
42、n situations best in his comedyB.he could sing and dance wellC.he knew how to make people laughD.lots of people have seen his films答案:A解析:推理判断题。由整篇文章可知,只会唱歌、跳舞,知道如何让人笑以及许多人看他的电影并不能让人们把他看作“幽默大师”。真正原因是:他把平常的生活情节在自己的喜剧中很好地体现出来。29What makes people laugh in Chaplins films?A.Not his words but his actions.
43、B.Neither his words nor actions.C.Either his words or his actions.D.Not only his words but also his actions.答案:A解析:细节理解题。由倒数第三段最后两句可以得出答案。30The only secret of Charles Chaplins huge success is that .A.he can make all people,men and women,old and young laughB.he has full trust in himselfC.he is always
44、 active and hard-working all his lifeD.though he is always in trouble,he never loses heart答案:B解析:推理判断题。由最后一段卓别林说的话可知,他成功的秘诀在于他的自信。第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。31.You spend an hour with them and feel as if you knew them long ago.These people have something in common.A
