One summer night, on my way home from work I decided to see a movie. I knew the theatre would be air conditioned and I couldn’t face my 1 apartment. Sitting in the theatre I had to look through the 2 between the two tall heads in front of me. I had to keep changing the 3 every time she leaned over to talk to him, 4 he leaned over to kiss her. Why do Americans display such 5 in a public place? I thought the movie would be good for my English, but 6 it turned out, it was an Italian movie. 7 about an hour I decided to give up on the movie and 8 on my popcorn ( 爆玉米花 ). I’ve never understood why they give you so much popcorn! It tasted pretty good, 9 .

1.B 本題考查考生理解能力。在夏天,公寓里沒有空調(diào),所以應(yīng)該很熱。故答案為hot。

2.D crack指“裂縫”, blank指“空白”, break指“破裂,休息”, opening指“空缺,口子”。這里指通過兩個(gè)人頭之間的空隙來看電影,應(yīng)該用opening。

3.D 這里考查詞匯和理解。原文表示前面人頭位置一變,自己就要改變角度看電影。A指“方面”,B指“視野”,C指“空間”。因此,應(yīng)該選擇D. angle。

4.C 聯(lián)系上題,“男的側(cè)身過去與女的說話”與“女的側(cè)身吻男的”兩者之間應(yīng)該是選擇關(guān)系,所以答案為or。

5.C 本題是對(duì)上文中男女兩人的所作所為的描寫,作者不明白為什么美國人那么喜歡在公開場合展示情人間的親密。只有C指兩個(gè)人之間的親密。

6.D 這里不是狀語從句,而是定語從句,表示“正如接著自己所看到的一樣”,具有此功能和意義的是as。

7.B 從時(shí)間關(guān)系上來看,作者是看了一個(gè)小時(shí)后才決定放棄電影的,所以答案為after。

8.A 本題考查固定搭配concentrate on,表明作者放棄看電影,而開始專心吃爆米花。B chew on指思考某事情。

9.C It tasted pretty good與上文的I’ve never understood why they give you so much popcorn之間應(yīng)該是轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系,所以答案為though。
