Yesterday morning the woman went to the town to buy something for her son. On the bus she told one of her friends how clever and able her son was. She spoke very loudly. All the people in the bus began to listen to her. "Which university (大学) will your son study in?" a woman next to her asked. "In the most famous university in our country!" Mrs. Turner said happily. "The most famous university?" "Oxford University (牛津)."
Most of the passengers (乘客) looked at her carefully. Some of them said to her, "Congratulations!" A woman said, "I"m sure he"ll know Fred Smith." "Who"s Fred Smith?" "He"s my son."
"Does he study in the university, too?"
"No, "said the woman. "He is one of the professors."
讲解:
2.第一段最后一句讲"这使他们高兴"。"It"指代前一句讲的情况,即他们的儿子功课很好。
4.第三段最后一句讲"所有人都开始听她讲。"故A不对;她这样做只是想炫耀一下而已。C、D描述的意思都不确切。
5.文章前面做了铺垫,讲Mrs.Turner 如何炫耀她儿子考上大学,结尾讲那个妇女说自己的儿子是教授不论真假,她是在阻止Mrs. Turner的炫耀。
