本文主要介绍了一个任性的女孩，她总是喜欢一意孤行。在一个有暴风雨的日子她不听老人的劝告，执意要去潜水，结果遭遇了危险，好在有老人相救，女孩最终脱离了危险。
小题1:解析：选D。由第一句可知Diane Ray非常自私且被宠坏了，因此可推断她的父母应该是给她“一切”她想要的东西。
小题2:解析：选B。设空所在句的句意为“她就会尖叫、踢打并躺在地上蹬腿跺脚”。故选B项，其余三项不合题意。
小题3:解析：选C。设空所在句的句意为“她的父母总是屈服”。由前文可知她总是发脾气，因此她父母只好屈服。give in意为“屈服”，符合语境。
小题4:解析：选A。设空所在句的句意为“那就是为什么她穿着昂贵的游泳衣，独自在沙滩上”。此题关键在于对该空后面的对应词swimsuit的理解。
小题5:解析：选C。设空所在句的句意为“她耍了一个大脾气让父母去买它(游泳衣)”。allow允许；warn警告；get使得；prefer更喜欢。故C项符合语境。
小题6:解析：选B。设空所在句的句意为“他们(父母)回到海滩房，从她耍脾气中恢复好情绪时，他们告诉她……”。与上下文联系起来可知，父母“恢复”好情绪才能劝说她。故选B。
小题7:解析：选A。设空所在句的句意为“……独自去潜水太危险了”。由本段第一句中“...why she was alone...”可知答案为A。
小题8:解析：选D。设空所在句的句意为“你们只是不想让我玩得高兴”。have fun意为“玩得高兴”，故选D。
小题9:解析：选B。设空所在句的句意为“直到他说话，她才知道有个人在那儿”。由句意可知选B，not...until...意为“直到……才……”，符合语境。
小题10:解析：选C。老人所说的“你今天不应该游泳”是建议，从倒数第二段最后一句话“Oh，why had she not listened to advice？”也可得出正确答案。
小题11:解析：选A。由前文所讲的她的性格可知，她应该是说“你少管闲事”。mind one’s own business意为“少管闲事”，符合语境。
小题12:解析：选B。设空所在句的句意为“‘如果你去那儿，你会后悔的’，那个人在她后面喊”。sorry意为“后悔的”，符合语境。
小题13:解析：选D。设空所在句的句意为“Diane滑进水里，开心地潜水……”。happily意为“开心地”，符合语境。
小题14:解析：选B。由上文中“白浪开始卷入”可知“逆着水流游泳已经变得比较困难了”。
小题15:解析：选A。设空所在句的句意为“海水打在她的脸上，让她难以呼吸”。根据常识可知正确答案是A项。
小题16:解析：选D。设空所在句的句意为“惊慌中，她开始尖叫”。由前后文可知，她遭遇了危险，应该会大声尖叫。
小题17:解析：选A。设空所在句的句意为“……她听到一个平静的声音”。由前文可知，老人知道她去游泳了，从后文可知他准备好了船来救她，并且他说希望她已经得到一个教训了，因此老人是有备而来，此刻的声音应该是平静的。
小题18:解析：选B。有人来相救，应该是感到宽慰。relief意为“宽慰；轻松”，符合语境。注意ease意为“轻松，舒适”，不符合语境。
小题19:解析：选C。在有风暴的日子来到海上，应该是危险的。
小题20:解析：选D。由前文提到的老人划船来救她可知，此处应该是把她拖到船的一边。 |

China is a land of bicycles.At least it was back in 1992 when I traveled the country.Back then everyone seemed to be riding a bicycle.Millions of them，all black.Cars were rare.Yet since my arrival in Beijing last year，I’ve found the opposite is true.There are millions of cars.However，people still use their bicycles to get around.For many，it’s the easiest and cheapest way to travel today.Bicycles also come in different colors－silver，green，red，blue，yellow，whatever you want.
It’s fun watching people biking.They rush quickly through crossroads，move skillfully through traffic，and ride even on sidewalks(人行道)．Bicycles allow people the freedom to move about that cars just can’t provide.
Eager to be part of this aspect of Chinese culture，I decided to buy a bicycle.Great weather accompanied my great buy.I immediately jumped up on my bicycle seat and started home.
My first ride home was orderly (守秩序的)．To be safe，I stayed with a“pack”of bikers while cars on the streets came running swiftly out of nowhere at times.I didn’t want to get hit.So I took the ride carefully.
Crossing the streets was the biggest problem.It was a lot like crossing a major highway back in the United States.The streets here were wide，so crossing took time，skill and a little bit of luck.
I finally made it home.The feeling on the bicycle was amazing.The air hitting my face and going through my hair was wonderful.I was sitting on top of the world as I passed by places and people.Biking made me feel alive.
小题1:According to the author，why are bicycles still popular in China today?| A．Because they are traditional and safe. | | B．Because they are convenient and inexpensive. | | C．Because they are colorful and available. | | D．Because they are fast and environment friendly. |
小题2:The author decided to buy a bicycle because he intended ________.| A．to ride it for fun | | B．to use it for transport | | C．to experience local culture | | D．to improve his riding skills |
小题3:How did the author feel about his street crossing?| A．It was boring. | B．It was difficult. | | C．It was lively. | D．It was wonderful. |
小题4:Which of the following best describes the author’s biking experience?| A．The author enjoyed showing off his biking skills. | | B．The author was annoyed by the air while riding. | | C．The author was praised by the other bikers. | | D．The author took great pleasure in biking. |
