I shall never forget the day when the earthquake took place.The time was about 5 o’clock in the afternoon and I was driving along the road to take my daughter from school.Our plan was to go swimming together.I had finished my work at 4 o’clock and then gone to the Post Office.Then I stopped off at a shop in order to get some fresh fruit.We liked to have some fruit to eat after our swim.
I was driving along a high road on my way to my daughter’s school.Over my road was another road which was built like a bridge for cars coming to the other way.I was hungry so I put the bag of apples in the seat beside me and started to eat one.
Suddenly I saw the cars in front of me start to move from side to side.Then my car started to shake!I didn’t know what was happening.Perhaps something had gone wrong with my car.I drove a little more slowly and then I stopped the car and at the same moment the road fell onto the car in front of me.
I found myself in the dark.I couldn’t move.The bottom parts of both of my legs and my feet were hurting badly and I couldn’t move them.All around me was quiet.But above me I could hear shouts and a lot of noise.Then I memorized (记起) what had happened.I had been in an earthquake. For about two hours nobody came.Luckily I could reach the bag of apples,so at least I had plenty to eat.Then I heard people climbing towards me.A team of people had come to see if anyone was under the broken road.I called out,“I’m here!” I heard a shout.Soon a stranger climbed to the side of the road near my car.“How are you doing?” he asked.
“Not too bad,” I said,“But my feet and legs feel as if they’re broken.”“We’ll have you out of there just as soon as we can.” They didn’t get me out until the next morning.I had been in my car for fourteen hours.
1.When the earthquake took place,the writer was________.
A.on his way to the Post Office C.doing some shopping
B.stopping off at a shop D.under a road built like a bridge
解析: 从第二段最后一句话可知,当地震发生时,作者正开车行驶在一条像桥一样的路的下面。这条路塌了下来,砸在了他的车上。 答案: D
2.The writer’s car began to move from side to side because________. A.there was something wrong with his car B.he ate apples as he drove C.an earthquake began to happen D.he drove too fast
解析: feel是系动词,后面跟有表语,我们知道当tire成tiring和tired时,才起到形容词的作用。 答案: C
3.Which of the following is True according to the passage?

D.The writer was so frightened that he forgot everything that happened around him.
解析: 从短文的内容可知,作者在接他女儿之前发生了地震。因此,在地震发生时,他并没有和他女儿在一起。又从最后一段可知,他被救出时,已经到了第二天上午。因此,也不是在那位陌生人一看到他就把他救了出来。再从他被砸在路下面后不久,他就记起了所发生的事,所以,他并没有吓得什么也想不起来。只有他的腿和脚被严重砸伤是真实的。
答案: B
4.Which of the following shows the right order of what happened to the writer? a—A stranger climbed to the side of road near his car and asked how he was going. b—The writer finished his work.

B.b,d,c,g,f,a,e D.c,a,f,g,b,d,e
解析: 通读全文,我们可知,正确的顺序是:作者下班后,先去了邮局,又把车停在一家商店前,下车买了一些水果。在接他女儿的路上他感觉他的车子晃动,上面的公路塌了下来,将他砸在了路下面。他感觉自己处在黑暗之中,一位陌生人发现了他,第二天上午他被救了出来。 答案: A
5.From the passage we’re sure that the writer was________. A.a teacher of a school C.a father of a girl
