Answer 1

1. B 2. C 3. C 4. B 5. A

  本文主要介紹Mr Smith的不幸遭遇。首先是摔斷了右 腿，所以待在醫(yī)院中。出院后在新年的前一天晚上由于在晚 會中喝多了酒，又摔斷了左腿，只好又住進(jìn)了醫(yī)院，并在醫(yī)院 中度過了他的新年。

1. B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。從文章的第一句話“Before Christmas Mr Smith broke his right leg and had to stay in hospital."可知，B項符合題意。

2. C詞義猜測題。anxious與worried是同義詞，意為“擔(dān)心

的，憂慮的”。從句意中也可以明白：由于盼望回家與 家人一起過圣誕節(jié)，在圣誕節(jié)這天，他仍舊必須待在醫(yī) 院內(nèi)，所以他感到十分的焦急、憂慮。

3. C 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。從文中“Soon Mr Smith left hospital and on New Year's Eve he went to a party. He enjoyed himself there. ”可知，Mr Smith是在新年的前一天晚上 玩得很快樂。

4. B推理判斷題。通讀全文可知，Mr Smith是摔斷了右腿，然后又摔斷了左腿，所以兩條腿都斷了。“broke both of his two legs”意為：兩條腿都斷了。

5. A推理判斷題。通過對本文的閱讀和學(xué)習(xí)，我們知道:Mr Smith在醫(yī)院內(nèi)度過的圣誕節(jié)，新年的前一天的晚上又 摔斷了左腿，所以B、C、D項錯誤，由此可以推斷他將 在醫(yī)院里度過很長一段時間。“a long time ”意為“很 長一段時間”。
