(2013·高考福建卷,A)When I was 12all I wanted was a signet (图章) ring.They were the “in” thing and it seemed every girl except me had one.On my 13th birthdaymy Mum gave me a signet ring with my initials(姓名首字母) carved into it.I was in heaven.

What made it even more special was that it was about the only thing that wasn’t being “replaced”We’d been burnt out in fires that swept through our area earlier that year and had lost everything—so most of the “new” stuff (东西) we got was really just to replace what we’d lost.But not my ring.My ring was new.

Thenonly one month laterI lost it.I took it off before bed and it was missing in the morning.I was sad and searched everywhere for it.But it seemed to have disappeared.EventuallyI gave up and stopped looking for it.And two years laterwe sold the house and moved away.

Years passedand a couple of moves laterI was visiting my parents’ when Mum told me that she had something for me.It wasn’t my birthdaynor was it Easter or Christmas or any other gift?giving occasion.Mum noticed my questioning look.“You’ll recognize this one”she saidsmiling.

Then she handed me a small ring box.I took it from her and opened it to find my beautiful signet ring inside.

The family who had bought our house 13 years earlier had recently decided to do some redecorationswhich included replacing the carpets.When they pulled the carpet up in my old bedroomthey found the ring.As it had my initials carved into itthey realized who owned the ring.They’d had it professionally cleaned up by a jeweler before sending it to my mother.

And it still fits me.

【答案】

1.A

2.D

3.A

4.B

【解析】本文为一篇记叙文,记叙了作者自己所珍爱的一枚图章戒指失而复得的故事。

1.

2.2】解析:选D。细节理解题。根据文章第一段可知在我13岁生日的时候,妈妈给了我一枚这样的戒指作为生日礼物,后来这枚戒指丢了;再根据第三段的最后两年后我们卖掉了房子和倒数第二段中“13年前买我们房子的那家人对房子进行装修,换地毯时发现了我丢失的戒指,由此可计算出作者的戒指失而复得的时间为作者28岁时。

3.3】解析:选A。细节理解题。结合文章第四段Years passedand a couple of moves later...可知作者一家搬了好几次家,因此选项A正确。由第三段知作者在晚上睡觉前摘下了戒指,第二天早晨就找不到了,因此选项D错误。由文章倒数第二段最后一句可知C项错误。由第三段倒数第二句可知B项错误。

4.4】解析:选B。主旨大意题。本文以一枚图章戒指为线索,记叙了作者这枚戒指失而复得的过程,因此选项B是文章的中心。最大干扰项是DAn Expensive Ring“一枚昂贵的戒指,这枚戒指仅仅是作者的妈妈送给她的生日礼物,原文并没有说这枚戒指是昂贵的,因此选项D错误。
