Question

Once there was an old man in a town. He always forgot a lot of things. So his wife always had to say to him, “Don’t forget this!”

One day he went on a long trip alone. Before he left home, his wife said, “Now you have all these things. They are what you need for your trip. Take care of your things during the trip.” He went to the station, bought a ticket and got on the train with it.

About half an hour later, the conductor began to see the tickets. He came to the old man and said, “Will you please show me your ticket?” The old man looked for his ticket in all his pockets, but he could not find it. He was very worried. “I can’t find my ticket. I really bought a ticket before I got on the train.” said the old man.

“I believe you bought a ticket. All right, you don’t have to buy another one,” said the conductor kindly. “But how can I know where I’m going? – I can’t remember my station!” the old man said sadly.

【解析】

試題分析：本文主要介紹了一個(gè)非常健忘的老人，買了火車票，上了火車，卻不知道火車票到哪里去了，最后找不到火車票，也不知道自己應(yīng)該在哪里下車。

1.。根據(jù)短文的第二句“He always forgot a lot of things.”的描述可知，這里指的是他總是忘記許多事情，所以說文中的老人應(yīng)該是一個(gè)健忘的人，forgetful表示此意，故選C。

2.根據(jù)短文的描述可知，老人是買了車票的，乘務(wù)員也相信老人買了車票，但是老人記不起把車票放哪里了。結(jié)合選項(xiàng)可知應(yīng)選B。

3.細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段第三行這一句“He went to the station, bought a ticket and go on the train with it.”的描述可知，老人是買了火車票之后才上了火車，也就是說老人在上了火車之前買了火車票，before表示在……之前的意思，故選B。

4.老人在火車上找不到火車票，根據(jù)本文倒數(shù)第二句“I believe you bought a ticket. All right , you don’t have buy another one” said the conductor kindly.的描述可知，售票員是相信老人買了票的，故選C。

5.根據(jù)本文的最后一句可知老人難過的愿因是老人不知道去哪里，是想不起來火車站的名稱，也就是說他不知道到哪里下火車站，故本題更符合文章含義的是D項(xiàng)，故選D。
