　　1．A.seen　B．noticed

　　C．neglected

　　D．found

　　C．pleasure

　　D．quarrel

　　解析：選A。disturbance“打擾，騷亂”；accident“事故”；pleasure“快樂”；quarrel“爭吵”。此處指售貨員聲音很大，以至于顧客們都轉身看到底是什么引起了騷亂。

　　13．A.arrested

　　B．embarrassed

　　C．relaxed

　　D．refused

　　解析：選B。根據“the old man departed with a huge smile on his face”可知，他沒有因被保安趕出店而感到尷尬，而是臉上露出了笑容。embarrassed表示“尷尬的”。

　　14．A.unusual

　　B．serious

　　C．dangerous

　　D．unforgettable

　　解析：選A。unusual“不平常的”；serious“嚴肅的”；dangerous“危險的”；unforgettable“難忘的”。盡管這件事很不尋常，但直到一年后，我上大一時才對這件事有了進一步的看法。

　　Ⅴ.閱讀理解

　　Are the British people Europeans? This may seem a strange question to Africans and Asians，who tend to think of all white men as Europeans.But the British，when they are in Britain，do not regard themselves as Europeans.The Europeans，to them，are those rather excitable foreigners from the other side of the English Channel，who have never learnt how to speak English.Europe is “the Continent”：a place full of interest for English tourists，but also the source of almost all the wars in which Britain has ever been involved.Thus，although geographically speaking Britain is a part of Europe, yet the fact that it is a separate island has made its people feel very，very insular (具有島民特性的)．They feel，and in many ways are, different from the rest of Europe, and they sometimes annoy continental nations by failing to support them, or even not to understand them，in time of need.

　　Where did the British people come from? This is an extraordinary interesting question，since they are a mixture of many different races, and all these races invaded(入侵)Britain at various times from Europe.Nobody knows very much about Britain before the Romans came during the first century BC, but there had been at least three invasions before that.The first of these was by a darkhaired Mediterranean race called Iberians.The other two were by Celtic tribes (部落)：first the Gaels, whose descendants (后裔) are the modern Scots and Irish，some of whom still speak the Gaelic language；and secondly the Britons，who gave their name to the whole island of Britain.These were the people whom the Romans conquered (征服)．The Romans gave the Britons a good deal of civilization，but they never settled in Britain in very large numbers, so the British race survived (活下來) until the overthrow of the Roman Empire by the “barbarians”，i.e.，the numerous Germanic tribes which overran the whole of Western Europe.

　　1．The purpose of the passage is to________.

　　A．talk about Europeans

　　B．discuss the origin (起源) of British people

　　C．argue for the superiority (優越性) of British people

　　D．compare the Europeans with Africans and Asians

　　解析：選B。推理判斷題。由第一段第一句和第二段全文可知。

　　2．It can be known from the passage that________.

　　A．most people think white people are Europeans

　　B．there are many Africans and Asians living in Europe

　　C．white men are Europeans in the eyes of Africans and Asians

　　D．the British people think of themselves as Europeans

　　解析：選C。細節判斷題。從第一段開頭第二句可知。

　　3．It can be inferred from the passage that________.

　　A．Europeans are those who are unable to speak English

　　B．Europeans are those who invaded Britain came from the other side of the English Channel

　　C．Britain is a place full of interest for those excitable foreigners

　　D．British is the source of almost all the wars in Europe

　　解析：選B。推理判斷題。答案在第一段。對于英國人來說，歐洲人是那些來自英吉利海峽對面的極易激動的外國人，他們從不把自己當作歐洲人。歐洲是一塊讓英國旅行者充滿興趣的大陸，又是使英國卷入所有戰爭的根源。A、C、D三項意思明顯不對。

　　4．Why do the British people feel very insular?

　　A．They are different from those people in the Continent.

　　B．They sometimes fail to support the continental countries in time of need.

　　C．They are separated geographically from the Continent.

　　D．They are considered difficult to understand.
