My mind raced through the list of family members who might need help可知，這可能不是什么好事。我的腦子里飛快地掠過(guò)那些可能需要幫助的親戚。所以通過(guò)關(guān)鍵詞not be good, raced through, need help可知，作者聽到電話鈴響時(shí)感到很不安。故選B。 （2）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第二段中的 We had lots of room in our freezer, and in fact, too much.和最后一段中的Inside were all expensive foods we never bought but often longed to try可知，我們冰箱的空間很多，事實(shí)是太多的空間。冰箱里面都是我們渴望而不可及的昂貴的食品。所以第2段下劃線的句子表明他們?nèi)狈κ澄镅a(bǔ)給。故選A。 （3）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第三段中的Thinking it was a shame to throw away all this good food, they decided to drop off food to anyone she could think of.可知，他們認(rèn)為丟掉這些好食物是可恥的，于是決定把食物送給她能想到的任何人。所以Lesley為什么給作者打電話是因?yàn)樗幌肜速M(fèi)食物。故選D。 （4）考查主旨大意。短文主要講述了作者一家在困難時(shí)期收到Lesley的求助，詢問(wèn)其冰柜是否有空間存放火雞，結(jié)果卻得到Lesley幫助的故事。結(jié)合文章中提到的Do you have room for a turkey?可知，短文是圍繞著“你有地方放一只火雞嗎？”而展開的。故短文的最佳標(biāo)題為“你有地方放一只火雞嗎”。故選D。 【點(diǎn)評(píng)】本題考點(diǎn)涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解，推理判斷和主旨大意三個(gè)題型的考查，是一篇故事類閱讀，要求考生在捕捉細(xì)節(jié)信息的基礎(chǔ)上，進(jìn)一步根據(jù)上下文的邏輯關(guān)系，進(jìn)行分析，推理，概括和歸納，從而選出正確答案。8．閱讀短文，從每題所給的A、B、C和D四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中，選出最佳選項(xiàng)。 We39。ve all had cases where we39。ve waited just a bit too long to pay an electric bill or speeding ticket. But one man, from California by reasonable assumption, who goes by Dave, recently took procrastination (拖延) one step further, by paying a parking ticket almost a halfcentury after it was given. In December 2018, the Minersville Police Department in Pennsylvania received a letter in the mail. Whoever wrote the letter decided it was best to keep his name somewhat unknown, so he put the return address as Wayward Road, Anytown California under the name Feeling guilty. When the officers opened the envelope, they found a brief letter, along with a $5 bill, and a parking ticket dating all the way back to 1974. The note read, Dear PD, I39。ve been carrying this ticket around for 40 plus years always intending to pay. Forgive me if I don39。t give you my info. With respect, Dave. Even though the initial parking ticket was only for $2, Dave must have felt awfully guilty because he left 150 percent, or $3, in interest. Michael Combs, the Police Chief of the Minersville Police Department, stated in an interview that the same ticket would cost about $20 if it were given today. Combs went on to share that the original ticket from 1974 was given to a vehicle that had an Ohio license plate. Because there was no system for tracking tickets given to outofstate cars back then, Dave could have gotten away with never paying the $2 fine. But apparently, guilt got the best of him, and he decided to finally cough up the money more than 40 years past its due date.（1）How much do we know about Dave? A.He lives in Wayward Road, Anytown California.B.The police are trying to find out more about him.C.His car probably came from Ohio at that time.D.Dave is of course the man39。s real name indeed.（2）Why didn39。t Dave pay for the parking ticket until recently? A.He pletely forgot about it in the past 44 years.B.He didn39。t find it until almost half a century later.C.He failed to find out who he should pay the money to.D.He didn39。t pay for it just because of procrastination.（3）What drove Dave to pay for the parking ticket at last? A.A strong sense of guilt.B.Fear of being tracked by the police.C.Worry about being fined more.D.Sudden change of his financial situation.（4）Which of the following can be the best title? A.Police Chief of the Minersville Police Department Shares a StoryB.Mysterious Procrastinator Finally Pays 44YearOld Parking TicketC.Unusual Letter Comes from Wayward Road Anytown CaliforniaD.Parking Ticket Carried Around for Almost Half a Century from Ohio【答案】 （1）C（2）D（3）A（4）B 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇記敘文，一位神秘的拖延者終于支付了44年的停車罰單。 （1）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段中的“Combs went on to share that the original ticket from 1974 was given to a vehicle that had an Ohio license plate．”可知，Dave的車可能來(lái)自俄亥俄州。故選C。 （2）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)最后一段中的“Because there was no system for tracking tickets given to outofstate cars back then, ‘Dave’ could have gotten away with never paying the $2 fine．”可知，Dave直到最近才付停車費(fèi)是因?yàn)橥涎?。故選D。 （3）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)最后一段中的“But apparently, guilt got the best of him, and he decided to finally cough up the money more than 40 years past its due date．”可知，一種強(qiáng)烈 的罪惡感驅(qū)使Dave終于付了停車費(fèi)。故選A。 （4）考查主旨大意。根據(jù)第一段中的“But one man, from California by reasonable assumption, who goes by Dave, recently took procrastination (拖延) one step further, by paying a parking ticket almost a halfcentury after it was given．”可知，本文講述的是一位神秘的拖延者終于支付了44年的停車罰單。
