9.Andy rode slowly on his way to school,day-dreaming about the fishing trip that his father had promised him.He was so busy dreaming about all the fish he would catch that he was unaware of everything else around him.
He rode along until a strange sound drew him to the present.He came to a stop and looked curiously up to the heavens.What he saw shocked and terrified him.A huge swarm of bees filled the sky like a black cloud and the buzzing mass seemed to be heading angrily towards him.
With no time to waste,Andy sped off in the opposite direction,riding furiously-but without knowing how to escape the swarm.With a rapidly beating heart and his legs pumping furiously,he sped down the rough road.As the bees came closer,his panic increased.Andy knew that he was sensitive to bee stings(蜇).The last sting had landed him in hospital-and that was only one bee sting!He had been forced to stay in bed for two whole days.Suddenly,his father's words came to him."When you are in a tight situation,don't panic.Use your brain and think your way out of it."
On a nearby hill,he could see smoke waving slowly skywards from the chimney of the Nelson family home."Bees don't like smoke,"he thought."They couldn't get into the house."Andy raced towards the Nelson house,but the bees were gaining ground.Andy knew he could not reach the house in time.He estimated that the bees would catch up with him soon.
Suddenly,out of the corner of his eyes,he spotted a small dam used by Mr.Nelson to irrigate his vegetable garden.Off his bike and into the cool water he lived,disappearing below the surface and away from the savage insects.After holding his breath for as long as he could,Andy came up for air and noticed the bees had gone.Dragging himself out of the dam,he struggled up the hilly slope and rang the doorbell.Mrs.Nelson took him inside and rang his mother.
"You'll really need that fishing break to help you recover,"laughed his mother with relief."Thank goodness you didn't panic!"But Andy did not hear her.He was dreaming once again of the fish he would catch tomorrow.

解答 4.D.細(xì)節(jié)理解題.從第一段最后一句:He was so busy dreaming about all the fish he would catch that he was unaware of everything else around him.可見,Andy正忙于做抓魚的白日夢(mèng),沒有意識(shí)到他周圍的事情.與D選項(xiàng),他的思緒沉浸于釣魚之旅相符.故選D.
5.D.細(xì)節(jié)理解題.A.C.三項(xiàng)的出處均為原文第二段的最后一句:A huge swarm of bees filled the sky like a black cloud and the buzzing mass seemed to be heading angrily towards him.意為,一大群蜜蜂像烏云一樣布滿天空而嗡嗡作響的蜂群似乎正怒氣沖沖的向他飛來.可見,A.蜂群像烏云一樣,C.蜜蜂想成群攻擊Andy均有提到;B選項(xiàng)的出處為第二段倒數(shù)第二句:What he saw shocked and terrified him,Andy看到的景象嚇壞了他,故B選項(xiàng)也有提到.D選項(xiàng)出處為第三段第五句話和第六句話,但是文中所述是Andy上次被蜜蜂蟄過一次后進(jìn)了醫(yī)院住了兩天,選項(xiàng)偷換了概念,故D選項(xiàng)文章并未提到.故選D.
6.C.推理判斷題.根據(jù)第五段第二三句話,Off his bike and into the cool water he dived,disappearing below the surface and away from the savage insects.After holding his breath for as long as he could,Andy came up for air and noticed the bees had gone.Andy下了車潛入了水中,躲開了蜂群,在屏息了盡可能長(zhǎng)的時(shí)間后Andy出來發(fā)現(xiàn)蜜蜂已經(jīng)飛走了.故選C.
7.B.推理判斷題.根據(jù)文章最后一段的第二句,Andy的媽媽說道:Thank goodness you didn't panic,謝天謝地你沒有慌神,可知情急之下Andy仍然成功想到辦法脫險(xiǎn).故選B.
