一、阅读理解（本大题共15小题，共30.0分）
A
The most welcome sight on a cold， wet winter night in London is the familiar shape of a London taxi cab approaching with its yellow \． That shows it is ready to pick you up． Travelling by taxi in London is not just a way of going from one place to another． It is an experience to be enjoyed and remembered．
The main reason for this is the drivers， who are called \． Many of them are true Cockneys． This means they were born in the heart of London and speak their own special dialect （方言） of English． All of them know every street and famous building in the city， and all of them love to talk． A simple twenty-minute Journey across town can become very interesting． You may have a discussion about the government and its leaders or a friendly talk about the driver's Aunty Nellie! One thing is for sure， it will never be boring． Cabbies know all the latest news about film stars， the Royal Family， government leaders， and popular singers or actors and actresses．
They also know the best places to eat， shop and relax． And they can take you straight to any large hotel， department store， theatre or museum． They know the shortest way possible without even looking at a map， because everyone who wants to become a taxi driver must pass a very difficult examination in order to get a license to drive a taxi． The exam is called \Knowledge．\， and in it drivers are asked the shortest way from one place to another． They must take into account the time of day-in rush hour， a longer route （路
may be quicker-and describe the best way． Moreover they must never forget the one-way 线）streets！

1．C．细节理解题．根据第二段 The main reason for this is the drivers， who are called \． Many of them are true Cockneys． This means they were born in the heart of
London and speak their own special dialect of English． All of them know every street （方言）
and famous building in the city， and all of them love to talk．可知主要原因是司机，他们被称为\出租车司机\．他们中的许多人都是真正的伦敦人．这意味着他们出生在伦敦市中心，讲自己独特的英语方言．他们都知道伦敦的每一条街道和每一座著名的建筑物，而且他们都喜欢交谈．由此可见，故选C．
2．B．细节理解题．根据第二段 You may have a discussion about the government and its leaders or a friendly talk about the driver's Aunty Nellie! One thing is for sure， it will never be boring．可知你可以讨论政府及其领导人，或者友好地讨论司机的阿姨内莉！有一件事是肯定的，它永远不会令人厌烦．由此可见，Cabbies'话题是很广泛的，故选B． 3．A．细节理解题．根据最后一段They know the shortest way possible without even looking at a map， because everyone who wants to become a taxi driver must pass a very difficult examination in order to get a license to drive a taxi． The exam is called \．\可知他们知道最短的路，甚至不看地图，因为每个想成为出租车司机的人都必须通过一个非常困难的考试，才能获得驾驶出租车执照．考试被称为\知识\．由此可见，此处的\知识\为一次笔试，换一句话来说就是\使某人有资格驾驶出租车\．故选A．
本文主要讲述了在英国乘坐出租车是一种很好的体验，主要的原因就是因为好的司机． 考察学生的细节理解和推理判断能力，做细节理解题时一定要找到文章中的原句，和题干进行比较，再做出正确的选择．在做推理判断题不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实，要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断．

After he moved out， a saxophonist moved in． A saxophonist! He practiced two hours a day． On Saturday his friends would come over and I'd get to listen to a whole band． I called the police， but they said saxophone playing is permitted in apartments for up to four hours a day， because saxophone playing is job-related． They told me I was lucky that the guy was only playing two hours a day!\ There are many unhappy renters， but there are also happy renters． \life，\， a middle-aged man． \had picked them myself． One neighbor was a chef． He'd bring me the best leftovers in the world． Another neighbor was a pianist． She played the most delightful music． Another neighbor was a mechanic who did my tune-ups and changed the oil in my car． My latest neighbor is a birder； we go birding every weekend with our binoculars．\

做阅读时经常犯错的主要原因是，仅凭读过文章后残留在脑海中的一丝印象来勾选答案，这样便很容易掉入出题人故意设布下的题目陷阱．所谓阅读理解，对于题目的理解一定要忠实于原文，因此，每一道题都应该与原文作全面的对比与核查，再得出答案．也就是说，阅读理解的每一道题目，在原文都应该有明确的出处，我们把这一出处叫做原文相关句，（1）排除与原文相关句主题不一致的选项（2）排除与原文相关句态度相反的选项 （3）排除用于过于极端或负面的选项（4）注意结合文章主旨和主题去排除．

I start every summer with the best of intentions： to attack one big book from the past， a classic that I was supposed to have read when young and ambitious． Often the pairings of books and
settings have been purely accidental： \： \， no telephones or televisions in the rooms， and little to do beyond row on the salt
pond． Attempting \， my native state， however， was less fruitful： I made it through one and a quarter volumes then decided （册），that I'd got the point and went swimming instead． But this summer I find myself at a loss． I'm not quite interested in Balzac， say， or \Shandy．\， which I've covered some distance several times， only to get bogged down in the \， set it aside for a while， and realize that I have to start over from the beginning again， having forgotten everyone's name and social rank． How appealing to simply fall back on a favorite-once more into \，\feels almost like cheating， too exciting and too much fun to properly belong in serious literature．
And then there's Stendhal's \， which happens to be the name of my favorite cocktail （鸡尾酒） of the summer， created by Michael Cecconi at Savoy and Back Forty． It is easy to drink， and knocking back three or four seems like such a delightful idea． Cecconi's theory： \．\The result is a pure shot of afternoon in the park， making one feel cheerful and peaceful all at once， lying on uncut grass with eyes shut， sun beating through the lids… 8.
