2.Cliff House
Top of the world
Near the North Pole
Christmas,1925
My dear boys,
I am dreadfully busy this year一it makes my hand more shaky than ever when I think of it
一and not very rich; in fact awful things have been happening,and some of the presents have got spoilt,and I haven't got the North Polar Bear to help me,and I have had to move house just before Christmas,so you can imagine what a state everything is in,and you will see why I have a new address,and why I can only write one letter between you both.
It all happened like this:one very windy day last November my hood blew off and went and stuck on the top of the North Pole.I told him not to,but the North Polar Bear climbed up to the thin top to get it down一and he did.The pole broke in the middle and fell on the roof of my house,and the North Polar Bear fell through the hole it made into the dining room with my hood over his nose,and all the snow fell off the roof into the house and melted and put out all the fires and ran down into the cellars where I was collecting this year's presents,and the North Polar Bear's leg got broken.
He is well again now,but I was so cross with him that he says he won't try to help me again 一I expect his temper is hurt,and will be mended by next Christmas.
I send you a picture of the accident and of my new house on the cliffs above the North Pole (with beautiful cellars in the cliffs).
That's all.Good Bye!

B.He is extremely busy.
C.He has got a new address.
D.He has to help the North Polar Bear.

分析 文章大意:这篇文章是圣诞节前夕在北极的父亲给孩子写的信,告诉孩子们爸爸在北极发生的事情.在去年十一月份的一天,风很大,作者的头巾被风吹走,挂在了柱子的顶端,北极熊爬上柱子上面取下头巾,结果柱子断了,砸到屋顶.

解答 56.B 细节理解题  从文章第一段的句子:I am dreadfully busy this year可知作者非常忙,所以给两个孩子只能写一封信,所以本题选择B.
57.C 细节理解题  从文章第二段的句子:The pole broke in the middle and fell on the roof of my house,and the North Polar Bear fell through the hole it made into the dining room with my hood over his nose,可知第三幅画是描述了这件事的发生情景.所以选择C.
58.D 指代理解题:从文章第二段的句子:Bear's leg got broken.和第三段的He is well again now,but I was so cross with him that he says he won't try to help me again可知him指的是the bear,选D

点评 故事类文章一般描述的是某一件具体事情的发生发展或结局,有人物、时间、地点和事件.命题往往从故事的情节、人物或事件的之间的关系,故事前因和后果的推测等方面着手,考查学生对细节的辨认能力以及推理判断能力.

17.The Albinas married when Mr.Albina was 30,and they spent the early marriage in Argentina.Then they decided to move to Chile,which meant they had to cross the Andes Mountains.They and their 20s sons made the difficult two-week journey on horses.One night there was a terrible snow storm in the mountains,during which Mrs Albina gave birth to triplets (三胞胎),a boy and two girls.
    Mrs Albina now has 30 more girls,including the twins who are 15 months old.The oldest Albina children are in their 30s and 40s.They are on their own now,but 18 of the kids still live with their parents in a two-room house.The house has electricity but no toilet or running water.Clearly,the Albinas don't have enough money and food for the big family.Why,then,do they continue to have children?
The Albinas do not use birth control because it is against their religion.They can let other people take care of their kids,but Mrs Albina doesn't allow it."When we were babies,"she said,"our mother left us at an orphanage and never returned.Then a couple adopted my brothers,and I was left behind.I was heartbroken.I promised that when I became a mother I would never give my children away."
     So the Albina family continues to grow.They have so many kids that they run out of names and have to give some children the same name.There are three Susannas,three Miriams,two Estrellas,and two Soledades.
     Will the family stop at 53 kids?Mr Albina is 77,and Mrs Albina is 59."I am getting old,"she said with a smile,"and I would like God to think of me and consider my age.But if God sends more children to me,yes,there will be more."

31.What is said about the children in the Albinas in the passage?D
Some children are raised by others.

The children are all twins or triplets.
Most of the children are independent now.
32.It can be inferred from the passage thatA.

33.How old was Mrs Albina when the Albinas got married?C
