B.Afraid.C.Sorry. D.Humorous.答案C解析推理推断题。由第一段中“manyofthethatchedcottagesthatremainhavebeenchangedbeyondallrecognitionbydevelopersorhaverunintodisrepair,aratherupsettingreminderofabygoneage”可知,很多保留下来的茅草屋要么被开发商改造得面目全非,要么年久失修,这让人难受地想起了一个逝去的时代。所以可以推断出,作者在第一段中谈到茅草屋时听起来有些难受。故选C项。2.Whatisthemainreasonforthesuccessof“UndertheThatch”?A.Theproperties’lowprices.B.Thecompany’sexcellentservices.C.Thecompany’screativedesigners.D.Theproperties’beautifullocations.答案A解析细微环节理解题。由第三段中“Unlikemostholidayhomes,thecottagesareletallyearroundchieflybecauseGregpricesthemlowerthanmanyholidayproperties”可知,与大多数度假屋不同的是这些小屋全年出租,主要是因为Greg把它们的价格限制得比很多度假屋要低。所以“UndertheThatch”胜利的主要缘由是房价很低。故选A项。3.Besidethatchedcottages,whatdoesGreg’scompanyprovide?A.Designingplansformoderncottages.B.Otheruncommonstylesofholidayhomes.C.Environmentallyfriendlytechnologies.D.Adviceondevelopingthelocaleconomy.答案B解析细微环节理解题。由倒数其次段中“henowletsoutavarietyofrareaccommodationsdottedaroundwesternstyles,includingarenovatedtraincarriageandtwogypsycaravanswhichwereusedbyRomanies”可知,Greg的公司现在推出了各种罕见的西方风格的居处,包括翻新后的火车车厢和两个吉卜赛人运用的吉卜赛大篷车。所以除了茅草屋,Greg的公司还供应其他不寻常风格的度假屋。故选B项。4.Whatcanbethebesttitleforthetext?A.BuyupTraditionalThatchedCottages.B.ProtectBritishHomesfromtheWeather.C.SpendaWeekendUndertheThatch.D.BringPropertiesBackintotheCommunity.答案C解析主旨大意题。通读全文尤其是最终一段中“Spendaweekend‘UndertheThatch’ratherthaninaholidayhome”可知,作者建议游客周末“在茅草屋下”度过,而不是在度假屋度过。所以短文的最佳标题为“在茅草屋下度周末”。选C项。BToreadmore,whenaself-helpbookcaughtAshleyJost’seyeatabookstore,Jost,a27-year-oldcollegeteacher,boughtthebook,Girl,StopApologizing,andbeganreadingitwhenshegothome.Shewasonechapterinwhenshediscovereditwasholdingasecret.JostwassittingonthecouchandthedogstartedbarkingatGod-knows-what.Shetossed(抛)thebookdowntoeasethedogandfivedollarsfelloutonthefloor.Surprised,shebeganturningpageafterpage.That’swhenshenoticedabrightpinknotewithahandwrittenmessage.Iwashavingadifficultday.IthoughtmaybeIcouldbrightensomeoneelse’swiththislittlesurprise.Gobuyacoffee,anicecreamorafavouriteCD.Practicesomeself-caretoday.Rememberthatyouareloved.Youareamazing.Youarestrong.Love.LisaJostwasgreatlysurprised.Random(随机的)actsofkindnessusedtohappentostrangersontheInternet,nottoher.AphotoofthenoteJostsharedonTwitter(推特)hasbeenlikedmorethan3,000timesandsharedaroundtheworld.Inthisway,itencouragedpeopletoperformtheirownrandomactsofkindness.Jostplannedtodoatleastonekindthingeveryweek.Andshe’snoonepeoplecontinuetoreachouttoherviaTwittertosharestoriesoftheirownactsofkindness.Afterwards,onceadayforaweek,shehidnotesandStarbucksgiftcardsincoffeeshops,restaurants,andlibraries.SheeveninspiredherdadtobuygroceriesforthepersonbehindhiminlineataWalmart.【语篇解读】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲解并描述了Jost偶然在买回来的一本书中发觉了一张纸条,上边写着激励的话语。她感到很惊异,并在微博上共享这则消息激励大家多多传递这样的爱心。自此之后她自己也在生活中到处传递着这种惊喜和善意。5.WhydidJostturnthebookpageafterpage?A.Shewantedtofinishthebookintime.B.Shewascuriousaboutherdog’sbark.C.Shethoughttheremightbemoresecrets.D.Shedecidedtofindthebrightpinknote.答案C解析细微环节理解题。由其次段中的“Shetossed(抛)thebookdowntoeasethedogandfivedollarsfelloutonthefloor.Surprised,shebeganturningpageafterpage.”可知她接着翻书想看看有没有更多隐私。故选C项。6.JostsharedthephotoofthenoteonTwitterto.
