【语篇解读】
我是一个爱开玩笑的孩子。有一天游泳时我又开了玩笑,最后我的真话也没有人信。幸好被人及时发现,我才获救。
【答案】
1. A 根据上下文:一天,我妈妈在厨房里煮饭,我和我弟弟Tony一起玩。根据下文"She was very ( ) and ran out of the kitchen."可知妈妈当时在厨房里,应该是在cooking(煮饭),选A,排除B睡觉、C写作、D跑步。
2. B 句意:她非常着急,跑出了厨房。此题考察学生是否掌握这些形容词的意思。当父母知道自己的孩子坠楼时应该是"担心的、着急的"。A:生气的;C:对不起的;D:激动地。A、C、D均不符合题意,故选B项。
3. D 根据上下文:别担心,我只是开玩笑。从文章首句"I liked to play jokes on people I knew, especially on my parents and friends."可知作者非常爱开朋友和家人的玩笑。当他告诉母亲"Tony fell from the open window!"之后又说"Don't worry",别担心,可知此时"我"也是在开玩笑的,故选D。play jokes是"开玩笑"的意思。
4. C 句意:如果你再这样做,我就打你!根据上下文可知母亲是在警告我:"再开玩笑就打你 "。故选C。A:现在;B:待会;D:一次。
5. A 根据上下文:一天我和朋友去海边游泳。根据下文"All my friends came to help me",可知,是和朋友一起去的。故选A。B:同学;C:兄弟;D:父母。

7. A 句意:所有的朋友都来救我,却发现我是在开玩笑。根据上下文可知"发现我在开玩笑"。B:理解,C:说,D:认为,都不符合题意。故选A,发现。
8. B 句意:我不小心游到了深水区。A:小心地,C:快地,D:慢地,均不符合题意,故选B,不小心。careless有"粗心的、疏忽的、草率的"的意思,是由care和否定后缀less组成的。
9. B根据上下文:最后,他们发现我说的是真的。上文中提到了"in the beginning",故选B,"最后"。A:起初,C:从那时起,D:在那时,均不符合题意。
10. C 句意:对我来说这是一个最好的教训。A:时间,B:运动,C:教训,D:一天,仅C符合题意。lesson除了有"课程"的意思,还有"教训"的意思。"得到教训"可以说:draw lessons。
【翻译】
我小的时候,喜欢捉弄认识的人,尤其是我的父母和朋友。有一天,我的妈妈在厨房煮饭,我和我的弟弟汤尼一起玩。突然,我跑到我的母亲身边说,"汤尼从敞开的窗户掉出去了!"她很焦急地跑出了厨房。然后我说:"别担心,我只是开玩笑。"我母亲对我大声说,"如果你再这样做,我就揍你!"
有一天,我和朋友去海边游泳。我想跟他们开玩笑。起初,我一个人游到远处了,并大声喊道:"救命!"所有的朋友都来救我,却发现我是开玩笑的。但下一次我没开玩笑。我不小心游到了深水区。我尽力呼喊我的朋友来帮忙,但这次没有人来。最后,他们发现我说的是实话,赶了过来,救了我的命,并且带我去医院。这是我人生中最好的教训。从此,我再也不捉弄别人了。

有一天,一个富有的女人丢失了一个装着很多钱的钱包。所以她许诺:"如果有人找到我的钱包并把它归还给我,我会分他一半的钱。"
一个穷人在商店附近捡到了这个钱包并把它还给了富人,可是那个女人却改变了主意。"除了钱,在我的钱包里还有一个昂贵的戒指,"那个女人说,"除非你把戒指还给我,否则我不会分你一半的钱。"男人说:"但我从来没有在你的钱包里见过一枚昂贵的戒指。"
他们开始争吵。男人非常生气,把她带到法官那儿。法官了解了发生的事情,对女人说:"我敢肯定,你丢失了一个钱包还有一枚昂贵的戒指。但是这个钱包里只有钱,所以我认为它不是你的。等一段时间吧,或许有人会还给你的。"然后,法官转向男子,说:"把钱包拿回家吧。如果失主没有在两天内拿回去,钱包就归你了。"

【翻译】
11岁的约翰躺在医院的病床上。前几天,他在参加棒球比赛的时候摔倒了,而且撞到了他的头。医生们认为他可能不会好起来了。
"他好像已经放弃了希望。光靠药品没有效果,或许他需要别的东西,"医生说。"我探望他的时候,他总是说他想见Babe Ruth。"
想见Babe Ruth当然不容易。在美国,Babe Ruth和总统一样重要。他是最有名的棒球运动员。
第二天,约翰的父亲打电话给Babe Ruth告诉他自己儿子的故事。二十四小时后,当男孩躺在他的病床上,Babe Ruth走了进来。约翰简直不敢相信自己的眼睛!
伟大的棒球选手在约翰的床边坐下,说:"听着孩子,你必须好起来,我给你带来了一个新的美国棒球,你现在要开始练习投掷了。"
对于约翰来说,这是新生活的开始。让医生惊讶的是,几个星期之后,男孩自己走出了医院。他能过上健康的生活,都因为Babe Ruth的礼物。
