C

     When I was young,I liked to play jokes on people I knew,especially on my parents and friends. One day my mother was cooking and I was playing with my younger brother Tony. Suddenly I ran to my mother and said ,“Tony fell from the open window!” She was very worried and ran out of the kitchen. Then I said, “Don’t worry,I'm just joking. ” My mother shouted at me ,“If you do it again,I'll hit you."

     Another day I went swimming with my friends in the sea. I wanted to play a joke on them. In the beginning I swam fast and I called out “Help”. All my friends came to help me. However,they found that I was joking. But half an hour later I wasn’t joking. I was so fast,soon I got tired and couldn’t swim on in water. I tried my best to call my friends for help,but this time nobody came to help me.

     In the end they found I was telling the truth. They came and saved my life. They took me to the hospital. This is the best lesson in my life. From then on I haven’t joked on anyone.

1. C細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文第一段第一句話“When I was young,I liked to play jokes on people I knew,especially on my parents and friends. ”可知,作者年輕的時(shí)候喜歡開玩笑。故正確答案選   C.

4. C 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由文章第二段“but this time nobody came to help me. ”和第三段“They came and saved my life. ”可知,剛開始時(shí),人們認(rèn)為他撒謊,沒有人幫助他。故正確答案選c。

5. D主旨大意題。短文通過作者總是用撒謊的方式與別人開玩笑,最終導(dǎo)致溺水時(shí),沒有人及時(shí)救援,說明“假如一個(gè)人總?cè)鲋e,沒有人會(huì)信任他的”。故正確答案選   D.
