　　最新公共英语等级考试阅读理解预测练习题 1

　　"New York City is not America. " Thats what American friends are sure to you when you ar- rive. "You must see Boston, visit Niagara Falls, go to Virginia, fly down to Florida, and so on; but first, of course, you will want to see New York. It is not the capital city of the United States(that is Washington, D.C. , where the President lives) or even the capital city of New York State(that is Albany), but many people call it the greatest city on earth."

　　The five parts, or boroughs, of New York City are Manhattan, Queen, Bronz, Richmond and Brooklyn. Although Manhattan is not all of New York, it is the heart of the city. It is an island, which is only about 13 miles long and 2 miles wide. From the air its shape looks like a long finger, and from the sea its just like the picture we all know. Those tall, straight buildings--the skyscrap- ers-packed so close together on that island of rocks are sometimes seen in the distance through a veil of early morning mist. You have imagined it so often that now its difficult to believe this beautiful sight is real, and unless your heart is as hard as a stone, excitement will lake it beat a lit- tle faster.Perhaps "greatest", "tallest", "longest", "biggest", "brightest", are words you will find most often in the city guide books.

　　Pepys and his wife Jane had asked some friends to dinner on Sunday, September 2nd, 1666. They were up very late on the Saturday evening, getting everything ready for the next day, and while they were busy they saw the glow(微弱的光) of a fire start in the sky. By 3 oclock on the Sunday moning, its glow had become so bright that Jane woke her husband to watch .it. Pepys slipped on his dressing-gown and went to the window to watch it. It seemed fairly far away, and after a time he went back to bed. When he got up in the morning, it looked, though the fire was dying down, as though he could still see some flames. So he set to work to tidy his room and put his things back where he wanted them.

　　While he was doing this, Jane came in to say that she had heard the fire was a bad one; hundreds of houses had been burned down in the night and the fire was still burning. Pepys went out to see for himself. He went to the Tower of London and climbed upon a high part of the build- ing so that he could see what was happening. From there, Pepys could see that it was, indeed, a bad fire and that even the houses on London Bridge were burning. The man of the Tower told him that the fire had started in a bakers shop in Pudding Lane(小巷) ; the bakers house had caught fire from the over-beated oven(烤箱)and then the flames had quickly spread to the other houses in the narrow lane. So the Great Fire of London, a fire that lasted nearly five days, destroyed most of the old city and ended, as it is said, at Pie Corner.

　　27. What is the passage about?

　　A. The Great Fire of London.

　　B. Who was the first to discover the fire.

　　C. What Pepys was doing during the fire.

　　D. The losses caused by the fire.

　　28.They were up very late because______.

　　A. it was Sunday morning

　　B. they were not very sleepy

　　C. they were preparing for the dinner

　　D. they saw the great fire start

　　29. In the sentence" Pepys slipped on his dressing-gown. "" slip on" means________.

　　A. to be wearing

　　B. to be pushing

　　C.to take off

　　D.to put on

　　30. Why did the flames spread quickly?

　　A. The oven became very hot.

　　B. The houses were close together.

　　C. The baker did nothing to stop it.

　　D. The bakers house was burning quickly.

　　篇章分析

　　本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了l666年在伦敦发生的一场大火。文章从一对夫妇Pepys和Jane的经历写这场大火。由于这对夫妇家离大火发生处很远，因此开始时只能看到微弱的火光。第二天早上妻子Jane告诉丈夫发生了大火，并且烧毁了很多房子.而大火还在燃烧。Pepys于是找一个高点观望，看到很多房子被烧毁。大火是由一个面包师的烤箱起火引起的0t

　　答案及解析

　　27.A

　　【题型】主旨题

　　【解析】通过对文章的分析，可知本文记叙了伦敦的大火。而B、C、D三项文中只是提到，而非文章主旨，故不能选择。

　　28.C

　　【题型】细节题

　　【解析】题干问“他们晚上待到很晚是为了_______”。由第一段第二句They were up very late on the Saturday evening，getting everything readyfor the next day…可知是为第二天的宴会做准备。

　　29.D

　　【题型】语义题

　　【解析】由下文…and went to the window to watch it.可知要去窗户那儿看火光，要穿上睡衣才行。to be wearing表示穿着的`状态;to takeoff“脱下”;to be pushing“正在推”，均不符合文义。

　　30.B
