題目列表(包括答案和解析)
The dog, called Prince, was an intelligent animal and a slave to Williams. From morning till night, he had a number of clear duties, for which Williams had patiently trained him and, like a good pupil, Prince lived for the chance to prove his abilities. When Williams wanted to put on his boots, he would murmur. “Boots” and within seconds the dog would drop them at his feet. At nine every morning Prince ran off to the general store in the village, returning shortly not only with Williams’ daily paper but with a packet of Williams’ favorite tobacco. A trained gun-dog, Prince had a large soft mouth specially evolved (演變；進化) for the sake of carrying hunted creatures, so the paper and tobacco came to no harm, never even showing a tooth mark.
Williams was an engine driver, and he had to work at irregular times ― “days”, “late days”, or “nights”. Over the years Prince got to know these periods of work and rest, and knew when his master would leave the house and return and the dog did not waste this knowledge. If Williams overslept, Prince barked at the bedroom door until he woke. On his return, Williams’ slippers were brought to him, the paper and tobacco too.
A curious thing happened to Williams during the snow and ice of last winter. One evening he slipped and fell on the icy pavement somewhere between the village and his home. He was so badly shaken that he stayed in bed for three days; and not until he got up and dressed again did he discover that he had lost his wallet containing over fifty pounds. The house was turned upside down in the search, but the wallet was not found. However, two days later, Prince dropped the wallet into Williams’ hand. Very muddy, and wet through, the wallet still contained fifty-three pounds.

A．can take care of their owners

The dog, called Prince, was an intelligent animal and a slave to Williams. From morning till night, when Williams was at home, Prince never left his sight, practically (幾乎) ignoring all other members of the family. The dog had a number of clearly defined duties, for which Williams had patiently trained him and, like the good pupil he was, Prince lived for the chance to demonstrate (舉出實例證明) his abilities. When Williams wanted to put on his boots, he would murmur “Boots” and within seconds the dog would drop them at his feet. At nine every morning ran off to the general store in the village, returning shortly not only with Williams's daily paper but with a half- ounce packet of Williams's favorite tobacco. John Rhiney's Mixed, a gun-dog by breed (牲畜等的種), Prince possessed a large soft mouth specially evolved (進化) for the safe carrying of hunted creatures, so the paper and tobacco came to no harm, never even showing a tooth mark.
Williams was a railway man, an engine driver, and he wore a blue uniform smelled of oil and oil fuel. He had to work at odd (臨時的) times棥—days” or “nights”. Over the years Prince got to know these periods of work and rest, knew when his master would leave the house and return, and the dog did not waste this knowledge. If Williams overslept, as he often did, Prince barked (狗叫) at the bedroom door until he woke, much to the annoyance (惱怒) of the family. On his return, Willams's slippers were brought to him, the paper and tobacco too if previously undelivered.
A curious thing happened to Williams during the snow and ice of last winter. One evening he slipped and fell on the icy pavement (人行道) somewhere between the village and his home.

The house was turned upside down in the search, but the wallet was not found. However, two days later-that was five days after the fall Prince dropped the wallet into Williams' hand. Very muddy, stained and wet through, the little case still contained fifty-three pounds, Williams's driving license and a few other papers.

3. A有些沖浪手自由自在、嫻熟流暢，有些沖浪手則活躍有力、生機勃勃。注意這兩個句子的并列關系，應該特別注意free 和 flowing之間詞義的順承和協調"自由而流暢"，后句的aggressive and__3__也應該是這樣一種意義聯系，故選擇A，sharp可以表示"精明敏捷的，迅速活潑，有力有為"意思，其它三項在意義上與aggressive的順承和協調相距甚遠。
4. D所有的這些都在吸引著我去沖浪，并使之不同于（different）其他運動。注意此段第一句The one thing I can get from surfing and not any other sport is endless challenge.也有所暗示。（be）different from和……不同。（be）far from遠離，遠非；known和right通常不與from搭配。
