这是一个蕴含哲理的故事，先浏览一下首句和尾句便可判断出短文的大意： 我们同来自乡村中学的一个篮球队比赛，由于轻视对方而使比赛失败。

1.C。情景推理题。下文作者写道：We even thought that theyhad never seen a basketball before . (我们原来甚至认为他们以前从未见过篮球。)可以推断出，他们看上去并不比我们想的更强壮等，而是更 糟糕(worse)。

2.D。词汇题。由于上段作了铺垫， 因此我们感觉到对付这样的球队不需要 (need)任何训练。

3.D。词汇题。前面的late 和下文"对他们来说热身训练"之事说明，没 有的是时间，而不是space，bal l，basket。

4.A。词汇题。只有得到了球才有下文传给了前锋。

5.D。词汇题。stop the pass"拦住了传球"，即"断下了球"，我们则 missed the ball(失了球)，全句意为：不知从什么地方出来一个穿着脏T恤 衫的男孩断下了球，漂亮地一投，得了两分。

6.A。虽是词汇题，但需从上文“我们不把他们放在眼里， 认为他们是一个 弱队"的事实条件下才可准确 选出。

7.B。常识题。篮球比赛一般每进一球得两分，根据投球地点， 也有三分球。

8.C。词汇题。win后一般接比赛，如win a game等。beat(过去式也是beat) 后接某人，指"打败了某人 "。

9.A。情景推理题。填just修饰a little better，表示另一支队正好比这 支队强一点。

10.B。综合理解题。 这要从全文来考虑， 第一段谈到了" They were wearing dirty blue jeans and looked like farm boys. "说明我们是"以貌 取人"。本句 tell 意为"辨认， 判断"，这时常与can/cou ld/be able to 连用。

(B) Paris has a beautiful name,the City of (1). Do youknow (2)it means?Many beautiful buildings are lighted at(3).The streets are very (4).When you (5)in Paris, you must not turn (6) your h eadlights (汽车前灯)evenafter dark.

这是一篇描述巴黎景观的短文，文章抓住了该城的一个特色——灯城。虽只 有两段，但包含了丰富的内容 。

1.C。看文章的首句和尾句之后，此空便可迎刃而解。

2.A。语法题。"what...mean"这是习惯性搭配。

3.B。常识题。灯要在夜里开，evening虽为"晚上"之意，但不可与at搭 配。

4.D。词汇题。顺承上文华灯竞开，自然亮如白昼。

5.C。词汇题。不看下一句，似乎4个选项均成立，但下文提到车灯，自然 应选驾车。

6.D。情景理解题。由于街上十分明亮， 即使天黑了也不必开车灯。

7.A。情景理解题。文章最后又提出一个原因， 说明不是唯一的原因才对。

8.C 9.A。情景理解题。由于巴黎乃世界科学和艺术中心， 因此吸引了许多 科学家和艺术家来此学习和研 究。

10.B。词汇题。习惯用法。注意最后的lights显然不是指具体的灯，而是 指"显赫人物;名家;名流"。
