    Whoever has made a voyage up the Hudson River must remember the Catskill Mountains. They are a branch of the great Appalachian family, and can be seen to the west rising up to a noble height and towering over the surrounding country. When the weather is fair and settled, they are clothed in blue and purple, and print their beautiful shapes on the clear evening sky, but sometimes when it is cloudless, gray steam gathers around the top of the mountains which, in the last rays of the setting sun, will shine and light up like a crown of glory (華麗的皇冠).

    At the foot of these mountains, a traveler may see light smoke going up from a village.

    In that village, and in one of the houses (which, to tell the exact truth, was sadly time-worn and weather-beaten), there lived many years ago, a simple, good-natured fellow by the name of Rip Van Winkle.

    Rip’s great weakness was a natural dislike of all kinds of money-making labor. It could not be from lack of diligence(勤勞), for he could sit all day on a wet rock and fish with out saying a word, even though he was not encouraged by a single bite. He would carry a gun on his shoulder for hours, walking through woods and fields to shoot a few birds or squirrels. He would never refuse to help a neighbor, even in the roughest work. The women of the village, too, used to employ him to do such little jobs as their less helpful husbands would not do for them. In a word, Rip was ready to attend to everybody’s business but his own.

    If left to himself, he would have whistled (吹口哨) life away in perfect satisfaction but his wife was always mad at him for his idleness (懶散). Morning, noon, and night, her tongue was endlessly going, so that he was forced to escape to the outside of the house—the only side which, in truth, belongs to a henpecked husband.

1. Which of the following best describes the Catskill Mountains?

A. They are on the west of the Hudson River.

B. They are very high and beautiful in this area.

C. They can be seen from the Appalachian family.

D. They gather beautiful clouds in blue and purple.

2. The hero of the story is probably

A. hard-working and likes all kinds of work

B. idle and hates all kinds of jobs

C. simple, idle but very dutiful

D. gentle, helpful but a little idle

3. The underlined words “henpecked husband” in the last paragraph probably means a man who _____.

A. likes hunting

B. is afraid of hens

C. loves his wife

D. is afraid of his wife

4. What would be the best title for the text?

A. Catskill Mountains.

B. A Mountain Village.

C. Rip Van Winkle.

D. A Dutiful Husband.

 

答案:B;D;D;C
解析:

1. 這個題的答案在第一段中,從towering over the surrounding country,以及在不同的天氣情況下它變換出的不同顏色,我們可以看出對這座山應該下的定義是:beautiful and high。

2. 這個題考查人物的特點。Rip's great weakness was a natural dislike of all kinds of money—making labor . In a word ,  Rip was ready to attend to everybody's business but his own. He would carry a gun on his shoulder for hours, walking though woods and fields to shoot a few birds or squirrels。在這里我們看到了一個熱心但懶散的男子漢。那么選項A中的勤奮和喜歡所有的工作是不對的。他并不喜歡干所有掙錢的活。B項中痛恨所有的工作也不對,因為當鄰居們要幫忙時,他毫不惜力。C項中的有責任感不妥當,應為他對家庭未盡職盡責。

3. 這是一個要我們猜測詞意的題。Morning, noon, and night, her tongue was endlessly going, so that he was forced to escape to the outside of the house—the only side which, in truth, belongs to a henpecked husband.他妻子從早到晚不停地嘮叨,結果他不得不躲到房子外邊。這個地方屬于……。這里的henpecked中有一個hen,它與hen有關系嗎?如果是怕母雞,那么husband又怎樣解釋?所以,經過分析,我們可以得出答案。

4. 本題為文章確定題目,C項最合適。
