7、 According to the power company, a truck hit a power pole or something, and that has cut off the power to 500 or so residents in our area. They should be able to fix it within a few hours, they say. But for now, the power is out.
When I was a boy, a power cut was an adventure. We’d light candles and eat ice cream, based on theassumption that without power to run the freezer it was going to melt anyway. My dad always used power cuts as an opportunity to talk about the good old days when he did his homework by fireplace light.
These days a power cut is more annoyance than adventure. There isn’t a lot we can’t do thanks to modem technology. No lights? No problem—my cell phone has a flashlight app. In the middle of watching a good movie? You can probably pick up where you left off through that movie service you have downloaded on your tablet. Can't cook? Use vour cell phone to get a pizza delivered. A nice slice of warm pizza will go perfectly with all that ice cream you have to eat.
Of course, technology can only take you so far in a real crisis. Honestly,we’d be in pretty rough shape if this power cut went on for several days. And if it were the middle of a cold winter,I don’t have any way to provide heat.
I have three flashlights,but since I don’t have any batteries for those flashlights I don’t think that counts.
Thankfully, the power is going to be restored to us soon. I’m grateful for this little reminder of the significance of the Boy Scout axiom : be prepared. Tomorrow I'm going to pick up some candles to go with all those matches, and some batteries to go in those flashlights. What about you? Is there something you can
do on this bright, sunny day today to prepare yourself and your family for the dark, unpleasant possibilities of tomorrow?
1.Why was there a power cut in the authors area?
A.Electricians got hurt in the truck accident.
B.A power pole might be knocked down.
C.The power company was checking the line.
D.The residents carried out routine repair.
2.By mentioning his childhood life, the author aims to show that _____.
A.a power cut used to be an adventure
B.he enjoyed ice cream at an early age
C.his father was fond of telling stories
D.his father took advantage of the power cut
3.How does the author find the power cut at present?
A.It is adventurous but beneficial.
B.It frequently happens but interesting.
C.It is kind of annoying but affects life little.
D.It rarely occurs though theoretically possible.
4.What does the author really want to say in Paragraph 4?
A.The present power cut went on for several days.
B.Cold winter added trouble to the present power cut.
C.People are usually in a rough situation during a power cut.
D.A power cut can bring us disadvantages at times.
5.What does the author mainly want to tell readers in the last paragraph?
A.Be prepared for a rainy day.
B.One false step will make a great difference.
C.Don’t empty the water jar until the rain falls.
D.Human fortunes are as unpredictable as weather.

7答案及解析：
答案：1.B; 2.A; 3.C; 4.D; 5.A
解析：1.细节理解题。

根据第一段中的According to the power company , a truck hit a power pole or something可知,卡车撞倒电线杆导致停电。

2.推理判断硬。

根据第二段的第一句When I was a boy, a power cut was an adventure 是该段的主题句,所以作者提及童年生活是为了表明过去断电时常有不寻常的经历。

3.细节理解题。

根据第三段中的”These days, power cut is more annoyance than adventure. There isn't a lot we can't thanks to modern technology可知,作者认为虽然有时发生停电,但对生活影响较小。

4.推理判断题. 根据第四段的主题句Of course, technology can only take you so far in
a real crisis.以及其后的支撑句可知,断电有时会带来不便。

误解分析:不能误选C项。

第四段中的 Honestly, we'd be in pretty rough shape if this power cut went on for several days.意为“老实说,如果停电持续了几天,我们的状况将会很糟糕”,这与C项中的内容不一致。

5. 推理判断题。

根据最后一段中的be prepared...Is there something you can do on this bright, sunny day today to prepare yourself and your family for the dark, unpleasant possibilities of tomorrow?可知,作者告诉读者要未雨绸缪,所以A项正确。
