共用题干Long Bus Ride
Long bus rides are like television shows.They have a beginning,a middle,and an end-with commercials thrown in every three or four minutes. The commercials are unavoidable.They happen whether you want them or not. Every couple of minutes a billboard glides by outside the bus window."Buy Super Clean Toothpaste.""Drink Good'n Wet Root Beer.""Fill up with Pa-cific Gas."Only if you sleep,which is equal to turning the television set off,are you spared the unending cry of"You Need It!Buy It Now!"
The beginning of the ride is comfortable and somewhat exciting,even if you've traveled that way before .Usually some things have changed-new houses,new buildings,sometimes even a new road. The bus driver has a style of driving and it's fun to try to figure it out the first hour or so. If the driver is particularly reckless or daring,the ride can be as thrilling as a suspense story. Will the driver pass the truck in time?Will the driver move into the right or the left-hand lane? After a while,of course,the excitement dies down.Sleeping for a while helps pass the middle hours of the ride .Food always makes bus rides more interesting. But you've got to be careful of what kind of food you eat. Too much salty food can make you very thirsty between stops.
The end of the ride is somewhat like the beginning. You know it will soon be over and there's a kind of expectation and excitement in that. The seat,of course,has become harder as the hours have passed.By now you've sat with your legs crossed,with your hands crossed behind your head.
The end comes just at the right time.There are just no more ways to sit.The writer thinks that the end of the ride is somewhat like the beginning because both are______.A: excitingB: comfortableC: tiringD: boring
选项
The writer thinks that the end of the ride is somewhat like the beginning because both are______.
A: exciting
B: comfortable
C: tiring
D: boring
答案
A
解析
第一段中介绍了乘客在坐长途车过程中所见的是广告牌。the commercials是“商业广告”的意思;billboard是“广告牌”的意思,即advertisements on the board。
全文主要介绍作者对乘车长途旅行的感受。因此选择A。
第一段作者说到“The commercials are unavoidable. They happen whether you want them or not.”商业广告不可避免,无论你是否需要,它都会出现。也说到“Only if you sleep...are you sparea me unenaing cry of‘Yon Need It!Buy It Now!’”只有睡觉才能躲避广告。由此可以推断出作者不喜欢沿途的广告牌。
根据文章第一段第一句和第二句“乘坐长途车就如同欣赏电视秀,有开端、有情节、也有结尾,每隔三四分钟插播商业广告”,选项B是正确的。
根据文章第二段第一句“旅程的开始是舒适并且有些兴奋的”和第三段第二句“你知道旅程将很快结束,就会产生一种期待和兴奋”选项A正确。
