的中心。故正確答案為 B。 一、根據(jù)文章內(nèi)容判斷正誤 Fred telephoned his wife. “I’ve got two free tickets for the theatre tonight,” he told her. “Meet me outside the office. We’ll have something to eat and then go on to the theatre.” Fred’s wife was very pleased. They hadn’t been to the theatre for a long time. She met her husband as he told her. They had dinner and got to the theatre just in time. At the entrance Fred took out his wallet to get the tickets. “It’s very strange,” he said. “They aren’t here!” “Try your pockets,” said his wife. But the tickets weren’t there, either. Then Fred looked very embarrassed (尷尬 ). “What’s the matter?” asked his wife. “Well,” Fred said, “I remember what I did with my tickets. I put them in my bag. But because I wasn’t going home, I left it in the office!” ( ) 1. One day, Fred was given the tickets for the theatre. ( ) 2. Fred and his wife went to the theatre quite often. ( ) 3.

T 因?yàn)榈谝欢沃刑岬?Fred told his wife “I’ve got two free tickets…” “free” 此處是免費(fèi)的意思。 F 第二段中提到 “ They hadn’t been to the theater for a long time.” F 第一段中 Fred說 “ Meet me outside the office.” T 第二段中 “ in time”是及時(shí)的意思。 5T 結(jié)尾處提到的。 David McConnell sold books from door to door. Housewives(家庭主婦 )were not interested in the books. Usually before he had enough time to say anything about his books, the women closed their doors. But he didn’t give up. McConnell decided to bring each of them a present, a small bottle of perfume(香水 )made by himself. He soon found that the women liked the perfume better than the books. He stopped selling books to sell perfume instead and started his own pany “Avon”, which is a great success. When you do nothing, you learn nothing. But when you try, even though you are not successful, you will learn what doesn’t work and that puts you closer to what will work. It doesn’t matter how many times you are not successful. It does matter that you will be successful one day. Edison was not on the way to success until people bought his first invention. Success once is enough for Edison. And the same for you—success once is enough. ( ) 1. McConnell was successful as a bookseller. ( ) 2. McConnell hoped those women would buy his books if he brought them each a present. ( ) 3. If you do nothing at all, you will never be successful. ( ) 4. Edison was successful at the very beginning. ( ) 5. The writer encouraged us to try as much as we can. F T T F T F 從第一段 “ He stopped selling books to sell perfume stead.”,可以判斷出他在推銷書方面并不成功。 T 第一段第三行提到 “ McConnell decided to bring each of them a present,…” 。 T 這句是第二段前兩句的解釋。 F 最后一段,第一句說明 Edison 的發(fā)明被人們認(rèn)可后才走上了成功之路。 T 第二段中作者提出了自己的觀點(diǎn)。 Sociologists(社會學(xué)家 ), working in western countries, have found that a large number of women wished they had been bor
