An American lady, Anna Lane, believes it39。s true. Her kind neighbours once helped her out when she was in a big trouble. Mrs. Lane was living alone in a city in Texas, US. The woman in her 70s could do a lot of housework herself. However, she was too old to mow（修剪）her lawn（草坪）. Then a big trouble found her. She let the grass grow over 18 inches high and it broke the law in her city. As a result, she was in danger of paying lots of money or even going to prison! Luckily, her neighbours, the Adams brothers, heard the news about her on TV. They decided to do something to help. We haven39。t met her yet, but she39。s 75 years old and she needs some help, said Sam Adams, one of the boys. That39。s the least we could do. The Adams brothers took their mowers（修剪機）and came to Mrs. Lane39。s house to mow her lawn without telling her. Once they got started, other neighbours saw what was going on and joined in the effort. Together they worked hard in the sun and finished mowing the whole lawn in about two hours. When Mrs. Lane saw what her neighbours did for her, she was surprised and moved to tears（感動得落淚）. I cannot believe this, she said. They were so kind to spend two hours helping me and I didn39。t even know their names. As for the Adams brothers, they said they would always be ready to help her. （1）What can we know about Mrs. Lane?

A.Good neighboursB.A serious city lawC.A beautiful gardenD.Humorous brothers【答案】 （1）D（2）B（3）D（4）C（5）A 【解析】【分析】大意：文章主要通過Adam兄弟和鄰居幫助Lane女士的故事來說明一句諺語——遠親不如近鄰。 （1）細節(jié)題。根據(jù)第二段 However, she was too old to mow（修剪）her lawn（草坪）. 可知，Lane女士沒辦法修剪草坪上的草。故選D。 （2）細節(jié)題。根據(jù)第二段 She let the grass grow over 18 inches high and it broke the law in her city. As a result, she was in danger of paying lots of money or even going to prison! 她讓草長到18寸，這破壞了她城市的法律。因此，她有要支付大量金錢或者進監(jiān)獄的危險。可知Lane女士有可能進監(jiān)獄是因為她家草坪的草高于18寸。故選B。 （3）細節(jié)題。根據(jù)第四段 Once they got started, other neighbours saw what was going on and joined in the effort. 他們一開始，其他的鄰居看到了發(fā)生的事并加入了，可知參與除草的人有Adam兄弟和其他鄰居。故選D。 （4）推斷題。根據(jù)第五段 When Mrs. Lane saw what her neighbours did for her, she was surprised and moved to tears（感動得落淚）. 當Lane女士看到她的鄰居們?yōu)樗龅氖?，她很驚訝并感動得落淚，可知Lane女士沒有想到鄰居們會幫她。故選C。 （5）最佳標題題。通讀全文可知，短文過Adam兄弟和鄰居幫助Lane女士的故事來說明“遠親不如近鄰”的道理，因此好鄰居是最佳標題。故選A。 【點評】考查閱讀理解，首先快速瀏覽、分析問題，抓住關(guān)鍵詞；其次帶著問題通讀全文，了解文章大意，找到依據(jù)，確定答案；最后再檢查一遍，確保答案正確。11．閱讀短文，從每題所給的A、B、C和D四個選項中，選出最佳選項。 Garrison had been treasuring his last piece.
