hands"卫兵看见我的刀子，他们都很紧张，我要把他们砍死吗，我只是割开了手指上的捆绑物，可知他们认为格列佛是他们的敌人，会有危险，故选B．32．B．细节理解题．根据第一段中的"When he woke up，he found himself in Lilliput"格列佛来到了一个小人国，他们认为他太庞大了，他们感到恐惧，以为会伤害他们，故选B．33．C．词义理解题．根据第四段中的"An officer told the guards to hold six men who made me angry．These men were given to me and I had to choose their punishment．"可知他们指的是冒犯了我的那六个人，故选C．34．B．细节理解题．根据第三段中的"The Emperor spoke in a high voice"皇上说话了；根据第三段中的"No one could understand my words，not even the cleverest of the Emperor's followers．"没有人能听懂我的话，甚至最聪明的皇上的随从也听不懂．他们都听不懂我的话；根据第三段中的"This was to stop the crowd of people from hurting

Located on ablock where several buses stopped, it served the people who had a few minutes to wait for their bus.Every afternoon around four o'clock,a group of schoolchildren would burst into the shop,and business would come to a stop. Adults would glance in（扫视）, see the crowd and pass on. But I didn't mind if the children waited for their bus inside.Sometimes I would hand out a bus fare when a ticket went missing -always repaid the next day. On snowy days I would give away some doughnuts. The kids and I would wait anxiously for a very late bus. They'd call their parents to let them know that they were OK.I would lock the door at closing time, and we waited in the warm shop until their bus finally arrived. I enjoyed my young friends, but it never occurred to me that I played an important role in their lives- until one afternoon when a man came and asked if I was the girl working on weekdays around four o'clock. He identified himself as the father of two of my favorites."I want you to know I appreciate what you do for my children. I worry about them taking the bus alone to get home. It means a lot that they can wait here and you keep an eye on them. When they are with the doughnut lady, I know they are safe. " I told him it wasn't a big deal, and that I enjoyed the kids.So I was the Doughnut Lady. I not only received a title, but became a landmark.Now I think about all the people who keep an eye on my own children when they venture（冒险）out into the world, Many of them I never hear about, and some I learn about only by chance. Like the man at the skating rink, who let my boys ring home; Or the bus driver who drove my daughter to her stop at the end of the route at night but wouldn't leave until I arrived to pick her up;Or that nice police officer who took pity on my boys walking home in the rain when I was at work- even though the phone rang all the next day with calls from curious neighbors. "Was that a police car I saw at your house last night?”That wasn't a police car. That was a Doughnut Lady.9. What did the author do for children?A. She often sold cheaper bus tickets to the children.B. She sometimes sent the children back to their home.C. She allowed the children to wait for the bus in the shop.D. She called the missing children's parents to pick them up.10. Why did the father come to the shop?A. He wondered what the Doughnut Lady looked like.B. He wanted to show his thanks to the Doughnut Lady,C. He worried about his children taking the bus to get home.D. He looked for the girl who stayed together with his children.11. What's the author's purpose in writing about the bus driver?A. She feels sorry because she has no chance to meet the bus driver.B. She thinks it's meaningful to do some small things to help others.C. She takes it for example to show many people act like Doughnut Lady.D. She feels sorry because she doesn't spend much time playing with the children.12. What does the woman mean by saying“That wasn't a police car. That was a Doughnut Lady.”? （请用30-50词回答）_______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________解析：A【主旨大意】本文介绍了和中秋节有关的“嫦娥奔月”的故事。

They share these services with other international helpers on the scene such as the UN or UNICEF. Mobile communication helps other volunteers do their jobs better.TSF also offers three-minute phone calls to local people who need to contact their loved ones. These communications can allow people to get together again after being separated (分开). Often the callers are moved to tears after speaking to a relative found to be still alive.

阅读理解 3In England recently three foreign gentlemen came to a bus stop and waited . About five minutes later, the bus they wanted came along. They were just going to get on when suddenly there was a loud noise behind them. People rushed onto the bus and tried to push them out of the way . Someone shouted at them. The bus conductor came rushing down the stairs to see what all the trouble was about. The three foreigners seem all at sea and looked embarrassed (窘迫的 . No one had told them about the British custom (习惯)of lining up for a bus that the first person who arrives at the bus stop is the first person to get on the bus .Learning the language of a country isn't enough. If you want to have a pleasant visit, find out as much as possible about the manners and customs of your host country. You will probably be surprised just how different they can be from your own. A visitor to India would do well to remember that people there consider it impolite to use the left hand for passing food at table. The left hand is supposed to be used for washing yourself. Also in India, you might see a man shaking his head at another to show that he doesn't agree. But in many parts of India a shake of the head means agreement. Nodding (点头) your head when you are given a drink in Bulgaria will most probably leave you thirsty .In that country, you shake your head to mean 'yes'— a nod means 'no' . At a meal in countries on the Arabic Peninsula, you will find that your glass is repeated refilled as soon as you drink up . If you think that you have had enough , you should take the cup or glasses in your hand and give it a little shake from side to side or place your hand over the top.In Europe it quite usual to cross your legs when you are sitting talking to someone even at an important meeting. Doing this in Thailand, however, could bring about trouble . Also, you should try to avoid (避免)touching the head of an adult (成人) ——it's just not done in Thailand .1. The British people tried to push the three gentlemen out of the way, because the gentlemen _________ .A. were foreignersB. didn't have ticketsC. made a loud noiseD. didn't line up for the bus2. According to the article, if you want to have a pleasant journey in a foreign country, you should _________.A. learn the language of the countryB. understand the manners and customs of the countryC. have enough time and moneyD. make friends with the people there3. In India it is considered impolite ___________.A. to use the right hand for passing food at table.B. to pass food with the left hand.C. to eat food with your hands.D. to help yourself at table.4. To cross one's legs at an important meeting in Europe is _______.A. a common (平常的) habitB. an important mannerC. a serious (严重的) troubleD. a bad manner5. The best title (题目) for this article is ________.A. People's Everyday LifeB. Mind Your MannersC. Shaking and Nodding HeadD. Taking a Bus in England答案及解析：1．D。
