試題分析：本文主要介紹了Mrs Grant在公交車上錯拿了一把雨傘，以及由此引出的幽默故事。
小題1:C 考查動詞辨析及語境理解。Keep 繼續(xù)；bring帶來；take 帶走；leave 留下.根據(jù)前一句中的“Mrs Grant離開家時天空很晴朗“可知，她決定不帶雨傘，take an umbrella是固定搭配，因此答案為C。
小題2:D 考查連詞辨析及語境理解 before 在。。之前；until 直到。。才；though 雖然；when當(dāng)。。時候。根據(jù)后文她拿錯傘，可知當(dāng)汽車到市場時雨還沒有停，“當(dāng)....的時候”應(yīng)該用連詞when，因此答案為D
小題3:A 考查動詞及語境理解 hanging 懸掛；appearing 出現(xiàn)；dropping 掉下；losing失去。由外面正在下雨及關(guān)鍵詞“心不在焉的”，可知她應(yīng)該是順手拿起“掛在”她前面的雨傘，因此答案為A。
小題4:B 考查形容詞及語境理解 angry 憤怒；sorry 抱歉 ；lucky 幸運(yùn)的；glad高興的。等她知道拿錯傘后，一定是不好意思，因此答案為B。
小題5:D 考查名詞及語境理解  reply 回答；call 打電話；suggestion 建議；look表情。傘主人此時的臉上應(yīng)該是非常不高興，因為最需要傘的時候，它卻被別人給拿走了，因此答案為D。
小題6:B 考查動詞及語境理解  promised 承諾；decided 決定；agreed 同意；remembered 記得。本題題意為“然后她決定再買一把當(dāng)作禮物送給女兒�！薄皼Q定”應(yīng)該表示為decide，因此答案為B。
小題7:B 考查動詞及語境理解  hiking 遠(yuǎn)足；shopping 購物 ；trying 試著；searching 搜查。根據(jù)句意 她去市場的目的是購物，因此答案為B。
小題8:C 考查動詞及語境理解  meant 意味著；explained 解釋；saw 看到；forgot 忘記。根據(jù)句意 她坐上車后才“看見”，故用動詞saw。
小題9:D 考查形容詞及語境理解  jealous 妒忌的；bored 厭倦的；satisfied 滿意的；uncomfortable 不舒服的。本句句意為“她正坐在那個上午讓她感到尷尬的婦女旁邊，因此答案為D。
小題10:A  考查名詞及語境理解  day 天；meal 飯；journey 旅行；present 目前。這正是文章的幽默所在，那個婦女以為Mrs Grant又拿錯了別人兩把傘，故諷刺她說你今天太幸運(yùn)了。

Although she has a hearing aid(助聽器., she does not let that prevent her from being a great teacher. She told the class about it on the first day and told us not to let it get in the way of our learning and not to treat her differently.
We all like her class, especially an activity which is called the station. Stations are when our tables of four or five become our groups and we go through four various activities, such as Ancient China, in which we need to put together a sentence and write it using ancient symbols. Each station needs about 40 minutes to complete.
Ms. LaRosa has a policy that not many teachers give a second thought to. That is writing in cursive (草書的.letters. She will provide you with various resources so that your cursive handwriting is the best that it can be. Ms. LaRosa always says that she has a reason for everything that she does. Recently we just understood her reason for supporting cursive handwriting. Cursive writing can force you to think in words but not in letters. Also it has been proven that people who write in cursive letters do better on tests.
Ms. LaRosa’s class gets to do various fun and exciting things. She also uses real examples from her own life, such as things that her daughter has done. Ms. LaRosa also has absolute trust in her students. She always leaves her purse on her desk.
