For some minutes it crawled along, then stopped; presently it began to move forward again. Another up-train passed them, though with less vehemence than the first one. The train gathered speed again. At that moment another train, also on a down-line, swerved inwards towards them, for a moment with almost alarming effect. For a time the two trains ran parallel, now one gaining a little, now the other. Mrs. McGillicuddy looked from her window through the windows of the parallel carriages. Most of the blinds were down, but occasionally the occupants of the carriages were visible. The other train was not very full and there were many empty carriages.At the moment when the two trains gave the illusion of being stationary, a blind in one of the carriages flew up with a snap. Mrs. McGillicuddy, looked into the lighted first-class carriage that was only a few feet away.Then she drew her breath in with a gasp and half-rose to her feet.Standing with his back to the window and to her was a man. His hands were round the throat of a woman who faced him, and he was slowly, remorselessly, strangling her. Her eyes were starting from their sockets, her face was purple. As Mrs. McGillicuddy watched, fascinated, the end came; the body went limp and crumpled in the mans hands.At the same moment, Mrs. McGillicuddys train slowed down again and the other began to gain speed. It passed forward and a moment or two later it had vanished iron sight.Almost automatically Mrs. McGillicuddys hand went up to the communication cord, then paused, irresolute. After all, what use would it be ringing the cord of the train in which she was travelling? The honor of what she had seen at such close quarters, and the unusual circumstances, made her feel paralyzed. Some immediate action was necessary but what?The door of her compartment was drawn back and a ticket collector said, “Ticket, please”.1.When Mrs. McGillicuddys train passed through a station, it（ ）.2.Mrs. McGillicuddy seems to be a(n) person（ ）.3.What she saw in the parallel train made her feel（ ）.4.She didnt ring the communication cord immediately because（ ）.问题1选项A.gained speed suddenlyB.kept its usual speedC.changed its speedD.stopped immediately问题2选项A.observantB.interestedC.nosyD.nervous问题3选项A.excitedB.anxiousC.worriedD.horrified问题4选项A.she was very much afraidB.there was no point of doing soC.she was too shocked to moveD.the ticket collector came in【答案】第1题:C第2题:A第3题:D第4题:B【解析】1.细节事实题。题目问的是“当McGillicuddy太太乘坐的火车经过车站时，这辆火车”。文章第二段第一句提到“它突然变慢了，好像在遵循什么信号”（Then it began suddenly to slow down, presumably in obedience to a signal），选项C“改变速度”符合题意。2.推理判断题。题目问的是“McGillicuddy太太看起来是一个的人”。文章第二段提到“McGillicuddy太太透过她的窗户看向对面火车”（Mrs. McGillicuddy looked from her window through the windows of the parallel carriages），接下来描写了她看到的内容，由此可以推断出她是一个善于观察的人。选项A符合题意。3.推理判断题。题目问的是“她看到对面火车上的情形时，感觉”。文章第四段提到“她吸了一口气，半蹲着”（Then she drew her breath in with a gasp and half-rose to her feet）；第五段提到“当她看到这些时，被吓得动弹不得，终于熬到结束”（As Mrs. McGillicuddy watched, fascinated, the end came），由此可以看出她非常害怕，选项D符合题意。4.细节事实题。题目问的是“她没有立刻拉警报索，是因为”。文章最后一段提到“毕竟，拉警报锁又有什么用呢？”（After all, what use would it be ringing the cord of the train in which she was travelling），选项B“这样做没有意义”符合题意。2. 单选题The American basketball team announced that they would not（ ）first place to any team.问题1选项A.yokeB.yellC.yieldD.yearn【答案】C【解析】考查动词词义辨析。句意：美国篮球队宣布，他们不会将第一名让给其他人。Yoke “结合”；yell “叫喊”；yield “产出；屈服；放弃”；yearn “渴望，向往”。根据句意，选项C符合题意。3. 单选题The rain was so heavy that the man was wet to the skin; his whole body was（ ）and trembling.问题1选项A.stiffB.straightC.steadyD.hard【答案】A【解析】考查形容词词义辨析。句意：雨太大，这个人身上已经湿了；他整个身子僵硬并且在瑟瑟发抖。stiff “僵硬的”；straight “直率的；笔直的”；steady “稳定的”；hard “坚硬的”。根据句意，选项A符合题意。4. 单选题People are getting a better idea of the need to protect（ ）property rights.问题1选项A.knowledgeB.intelligenceC.intellectualD.leaning【答案】C【解析】固定搭配辨析题。knowledge “知识，学问，知道”；intelligence “智力，情报工作，理解力”：intellectual “智力的，聪明的，理智的”；intellectual property rights “知识产权”；leaning “倾向，爱好；倾斜”。本题考察固定搭配intellectual property rights “知识产权”，句意是大家正更好地理解保护知识产权的需要。C选项正确。5. 单选题As a wise man once said, we are all ultimately alone.
