Question

Dear Anna Peterson,

   I'm having some troubles now. I ever did well in my study before. But now I find it difficult to concentrate on (集中精力) it. Even when I'm in school,in the quiet classroom and when the teacher is speaking in class,I can't concentrate. I don't think about anything;my mind goes nothing. And sometimes I think about something. It could be anything,say a movie. And then I act like one of the characters (人物) ，and I do this everywhere. I don't even realize what I'm doing till something gets my attention and pulls me back to my real life.

    I can't always remember the important things my teacher says,because I write too slowly. I'm not good at writing and I usually hand in my homework late because I put off doing it until the last minute. So I often have to find different excuses to tell my teacher why I didn't do my homework. I'm sure I'm going to fail my final exam in late January. I'm behind other students now and I don't know how to catch up with them. But there is only one month left,you know. I am worried all day,and I know this won’t be helpful for me at all. I get distracted (分心的) really easily.

    My life has changed a lot. Can you help me?

                                          Yours,

                                         Mel Barnes

Answer 1

2. D 3. C 4. B 5. C

這是一篇應(yīng)用文。在信中，Mel Barnes講述的是最近出 現(xiàn)的一點(diǎn)小麻煩，這導(dǎo)致了他在學(xué)習(xí)的時(shí)候總是打不起精神。

詳析

1 . B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由信的首段“ I'm having some troubles now. ”，結(jié)尾句“Can you help me?”以及落款可知，梅爾 遇到困惑，需要幫助。故選B.

2. D推理判斷題。梅爾遇到的是學(xué)習(xí)和心理上的糾結(jié)，由此判斷，他求助的對象中，father,doctor和student不符 合這一身份要求。只有hotline host “熱線主持人”符合。故選D.

3. C 推理判斷題。理解第一段“I don't even realize what I'm doing till something gets my attention and pulls me back to my real life. ”細(xì)節(jié)描述可知，梅爾喜歡想象，有時(shí)候 很難從影視情節(jié)中回到現(xiàn)實(shí)。因此who likes having a daydream in his mind對他的描述很確切到位。

4. B 推理判斷題。由第二段“I'm going to fail my final exam

in late January. ”和 ‘‘ But there is only one month left.可知，一月下旬將進(jìn)行期末考試，而現(xiàn)在還剩 下一個(gè)月。由此可知，寫信的時(shí)間是十二月下旬。

5. C 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。第二段提到“I'm sure I'm going to fail my final exam in late January”，梅爾只是擔(dān)心一月份的期末 考試不及格。因此C項(xiàng)描述“梅爾一月份的期末考試 沒有通過”與原文不符。

障礙句分析

So I often have to find different excuses to tell my teacher why I didn't do my homework.所以我必須找各種借口向老師解釋我為什么沒有完成作業(yè)。

該句中，動(dòng)詞不定式短語to tell my teacher作賓語 excuses的賓語補(bǔ)足語。

tell sb. sth.是雙賓語結(jié)構(gòu)，意為“告 訴某人某件事情”，why I didn't do my homework是動(dòng)詞tell

的賓語從句。
