唱队的歌手们。10.A。terribly是副词，而afraid是表语形容词，frightened通常用来形容人，因此选择terrible修饰名词fog。No.02这是一篇记叙文，文章主要介绍了现在成名的作家John小时侯上学的情况。故事形象生动，诙谐有趣。1.A.John现在成名了，但他小时候可不是好学生。这由句中的连词and可以看出来。2.C.由于John不是好学生，因此他经常在上课时迟到。3.D.根据上下句即可知道这里是一个表示转折的词，but最合适。4.B.老师应该是问学生问题，这是一个基本常识。5.C.根据主语Jack可知答案。6.B.根据Jackisfifteen可知老师要了解的是Bob的年龄。7.A.这里应该是老师在scienceclass上问学生问题。8.D.根据上下句和四个疑问词的意思可知答案。9.C.声音应该是听到的。10.D.根据所给词的词义可知答案。阅读理解【答案与解析】(A)这篇幽默故事讲的是：三个人在谈论“如果大夫告知你还能活三个月的时间，你最想做什么？”这个问题。其中一个人说他将从银行取出所有的钱和朋友一块去度假，并尽可能多地旅游一些地方。另一个人说他将买掉自己的房子，买一辆好车，做一名赛车手。也许能有机会参加汽车大赛。第三个人说，如果大夫告诉他这个坏消息，他将再去看一个医生。1.B.根据题意，这三个人在火车站等火车，当然是在候车室。2.A.答案就在“Theothertwomenthoughtaboutthisforawhile,thenCarlspoke.”这句话中。3.B.短文第二句即是本题的答案。4.D.由Allan说的话，可推测出D为最佳答案。5.C.“Withthesewords,heturnedtotheotherman,saying,‘Andwhataboutyou?’”这句话以及后边的回答是解答本题的关键之所在。(B)这是一篇读后让人惊叹不已的故事。象棋大师Watson在旅馆时遇到了一个孩子。孩子的母亲请求Watson与儿子下一盘棋。Watson很不情愿地答应了。然而下棋过程中，那个孩子漫不经心地，还不时地跑出去和姐姐打网球。让Watson考虑之后再叫他。Watson后来处于僵局，最终也未能挽回。一个年仅十岁的孩子在二十八分钟里就胜了他。他非常佩服。后来，Watson用这个孩子的棋路获得了一个银杯。作者最后的“Ihadachancetousehisgametoday,anditwonthiscupforme.Tohim,ofcourse,itisonlyoneofahundred,orperhapsathousand,winninggames.”这句话可以让人体会到Watson的心情，发人深思。6.D。本题需综合考虑下文所回忆的那局输掉的棋方找到答案。7.C。由作者在“Iwasn’ttoohappy.Aplayerlikestheopponenttoplayaswellashedoes.”一句中所流露出的感情以及“ButitwasholidaytimeandIagreedtoplay.”等句子的暗示可判断作者根本没有把这个小孩子放在眼中。不难得出正确的答案。8.D。那小男孩即便是在“aquickmove,then
