Paul
A friend of mine named Paul received an expensive car from his brother as a Christmas present. On Christmas Eve when Paul came out of his office a street urchin(頑童) was walking around a shining car.“Is this your car, Paul?”he asked.
Paul answered,“Yes, my brother gave it to me for Christmas.”The boy was surprised.“You mean your brother gave it to you and it didn't cost you anything. Boy. I wish?”He hesitated(猶豫)。 Of course Paul knew what he was going to wish for. He was going to wish he had a brother like that. But what the boy said surprised Paul greatly.
“I wish,”the boy went on,“that I could be a brother like that.”Paul looked at the boy in surprise, then he said again,“Would you like to take a ride in my car?”
“Oh, yes, I'd love that.”
After a short ride, the boy turned and with his eyes shining, said:“Paul, would you mind driving in front of my house?”
Paul smiled a little. He thought he knew what the boy wanted. He wanted to show his neighbours that he could ride home in a big car. But Paul was wrong again,“Will you stop where those two steps are?”the boy asked.
He ran up to the steps. Then in a short while Paul heard him coming back, but he was not coming fast. He was carrying his little crippled(殘疾) brother. He sat him down on the step and pointed to the car.
“There she is. Buddy, just like I told you upstairs. His brother gave it to him for Christmas and it didn't cost him a cent. And some day I'm going to give you one just like it…then you can see for yourself all nice things in the Christmas window that I've been trying to tell you about.”
Paul got out and lifted the boy to the front seat of his car. The shining-eyed older brother climbed in beside him and the three of them began an unforgettable holiday ride.

參考答案：
(1)本題考查細節理解，依據本文第二段：Paul answered,“Yes, my brother gave it to me for Christmas.”The boy was surprised.故答案選B。
(2)本題考查學生的推理判斷能力，依據倒數第二段和第三段的內容，尤其是頑童對他弟弟所說的話：“And some day I'm going to give you one just like it…”故選A。
(3)本題考查學生的深層理解。Paul的種種猜想會對正確選擇產生干擾。依據是本文倒數第二段的最後一句話：“Then you can see for yourself all the nice things in the Christmas window that I've been trying to tell you about.”故選D。
(4)本題考查歸納文章中心。從頑童的'言行之中可以看出他對殘疾弟弟有深深的愛。如：“You mean your brother gave it to you and it didn't cost you anything.”“He was carrying his little crippled brother.”故選B。
(5)本題考查概括全文主旨的能力。本文敘述了兩對兄弟的關愛之情。Paul的哥哥送給他一輛小汽車作爲聖誕禮物，頑童雖然沒有Paul哥哥那樣的經濟條件，但他有着一份對殘疾弟弟的深深的愛。所以A Brother Like That爲最佳題目。

解析
5.在中國，習慣上把11月至次年的1月稱之爲冬季，文章中的in the middle of winter,故此題答案爲C。
6.根據上下文，如：“He put his head out of the window and saw a lot of people coming towards his house. They were crying a dead man.”故此答案爲D。
7.根據上下文，聯繫全文，可用排除法判斷A、B、D答案都是不正確的，故此題答案爲C。
8.從文中“Why are you leaving us to go to a place without light and without a fire and without food?”上文一句“…a lot of people coming towards his house.”由此推斷答案應爲B。
9.文章最後一句“They are talking about our house. They are bringing the dead man here!”所以說Nasreddin害怕的是人們把這個死人拍到他家裏來。故此答案爲D。
The giraffe
The giraffe is the tallest modern land animal. It can be over 5.5 metres tall. Its neck alone may be 1.9metres long. Yet the giraffe has only seven bones in its neck, the same number as in the human. Even a small bird has many more bones in its neck than in a tall giraffe. Each bone in a giraffe's neck is very long, while the bones in a human neck are small. That makes the difference. A female giraffe gives birth to one baby at a time. The baby, called a calf, is about 1.9 metres tall at birth. By the age of eight it is full-grown. The giraffe eats mostly leaves. Because it has a long neck, it can reach the leaves high up on the trees.

A.鯨魚
B.長頸鹿
C.大象
D.恐龍
(2)The bones in a bird's neck is ________.

A. it will run away as fast as possible
B. it will run to eat the tiger

解析
(1)根據下文頸長1.9米且是陸地動物，顯然B是正確答案。
(2)giraffe頸骨的數量和人類頸骨數量相同，但鳥的頸骨數量比giraffe頸骨數量多，所以正確答案爲C。
(3)這是一題細讀題，文章中“By the age of eight it is full-grown.”故選C。
(4)這也是細讀題，文章中“The baby, called a calf, is about 1.9 metres tall at birth.”故選D。
(5)這一題考查常識知識，長頸鹿看到虎，當然是盡力跑開，故選A。
