Question

I sometimes wonder if old Finchley has the right personality to be a research scientist. He keeps asking when he’ll be coming back. After all, it was his own fault. Nobody tries out what has just been invented on themselves any more but Finchley. Well, he must have pumped about a thousand cc into himself before I noticed he was clearly becoming smaller.
It was funny watching him, because his clothes remained the same in size. They simply piled up around him so that he looked like a small boy in his father’s clothes. But he kept getting smaller and smaller. As my colleague Dawson and I watched him, he disappeared! All we could see was Finchley’s clothes on the floor. They looked so strange, because the lab coat was on top, shirt and trousers inside and, I suppose, underclothes inside again. It gave me a strange feeling, and I think Dawson was a bit shaken, too.
Dawson was sitting on his chair in front of a microscope he’d been using to examine a family of mites(螨). He looked through the scope kind of absently again, and was nearly scared to lose awareness when he found old Finchley waving back from the other end.
It seems as if Finchley had taken a free ride on a dust mite and landed on the land of the mite family. Of course, we didn’t know till Finchley told us later. But anyhow, as I said, Dawson nearly passed out. He jumped off his chair and pointed at the microscope, too shocked to speak.
【小題1】It can be inferred that Finchley, Dawson and the writer have possible invented      .

A．a(chǎn) machine to make people small	B．a(chǎn) new way to study the family of mites
C．a(chǎn) new powerful microscope	D．some kind of medicine

【小題2】Finchley disappeared because      .

A．he tried out what has just invented on himself

B．his father’s clothes totally covered him up

C．he took something poisonous

D．he was changed into a dust mite

【小題3】It can probably be concluded that Finchley       .

A．will remain tiny all the time	B．is a devoted scientist
C．is not fit to be a scientist	D．passed out there and then

【小題4】It frightened Dawson to see Fincley         .

A．got out of his scope by accident	B．was waving through his scope
C．suddenly got lost in his clothes	D．gradually disappeared in the lad

Answer 1

【小題1】D
【小題2】A
【小題3】B
【小題4】B

解析試題分析：本文介紹了一位很有特色的研究人員Finchley，他勇于在自己身上試用剛剛發(fā)明出來(lái)的產(chǎn)品。
【小題1】D 推理題。根據(jù)文章第三段內(nèi)容，尤其是1,2行Dawson was sitting on his chair in front of a microscope he’d been using to examine a family of mites(螨).說(shuō)明他們是在研究一種藥物，故D項(xiàng)正確。
【小題2】A 細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)第一段3,4行Nobody tries out what has just been invented on themselves any more but Finchley.說(shuō)明只有他會(huì)在自己身上使用發(fā)明的東西，故A正確。
【小題3】B 推理題。根據(jù)第一段Nobody tries out what has just been invented on themselves any more but Finchley.說(shuō)明他勇于在自己身上試驗(yàn)發(fā)明的產(chǎn)品，就說(shuō)明他是一個(gè)致力于研究的人，故B正確。
【小題4】B 細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)第三段2,3行He looked through the scope kind of absently again, and was nearly scared to lose awareness when he found old Finchley waving back from the other end.說(shuō)明B項(xiàng)正確。
