三、 阅读理解
21. To support his sick wife and earn a paycheck, a 61-year-old Iowa man named Steve Simoff sometimes walks 35 miles to his job as an overnight gatekeeper. Simof said that he leaves his basement apartment in a small town at about 3:30 p.m. to get to the Lakesside hotel and Casino in Osceola where he begins to work at 11:00 p.m. for $9.07 per hour. His wife suffered a stoke nine years ago and some days there just isn’t enough money to put gas in the couple’s 2002 car. Moving closer to his job would likely mean paying more than he now does in monthly rent---$400.
Family and a job are “the two most important things I can think of,” Simoff said, explaining why he walks to his job. He and his wife, Renee, adopted their now 22-year-grandson, Steven, who has been unemployed since January.
Although some people along the route do stop to offer him a lift, they often drop him off about 8 miles from home. But Simon doesn’t seem to mind. He describes the walking route as “picturesque（风景如画的）” and sounds like he enjoy passing the cows and fields along the way. He’s done the walk in all kinds of weather, including snow. It’s a little dangerous because trucks frequent Interstate highway 35, whizzing （飞驰）past him at 70 miles per hour.
Simoff story has a familiar ring. Last month there were storied written about a Detroit man named James Robertson who for years has been walking 21 miles roundtrip through city streets to and from his factory job. The media attention got Robertson $350,000 from a GoFundMe campaign and a new car. We wonder what the Internet holds for Simoff.
25. Simoff walks 35 miles to his job mainly ______.
A. to attract others’ attention        B. to keep healthy and strong
C. to accompany his sick wife.      D. to save money for his family
26. What do we know about Simoff’s walking route?
A. It is pretty boring.            B. There are high buildings
C. It is full of fun and danger.      D. There are only a few regulars.
27. James Robertson is mentioned because ______.
A  his story inspired Simoff      B  he donated money to Simoff
C  he is quite familiar with Simoff    D  his experience is similar to Simoff’s
参考答案：
25.D
26.C
27.D

22. Many experts say that Billy Wilder changed the history of American movies. He is often called the best movie maker Hollywood has ever had, known for making movies that offered sharp social comment.
Between the 1930s and the 1980s, Billy Wilder made almost fifty movies. During that time he received more than twenty nominations from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. He won six of the Oscar awards. His movies have been seen by people around the world, like “Sunset Boulevard”, “Some Like It Hot”, “The Lost Weekend”, “The Apartment”, and “The Seven Year Itch”.
Samuel Wilder was born in 1906 in the former Austro-Hungarian Empire. His mother had enjoyed spending several years in the United States when she was young. So she called him Billy because she thought it sounded American. Billy Wilder started law school in Vienna, Austria. Then he decided not to become a lawyer. Instead, he began reporting for a Vienna newspaper. By the 1920s, he was writing movies in Germany.
However, the Nazis had risen to power in the nation. Wilder was Jewish, and he recognized that he had no future in Nazi Germany. In 1933, he went to Paris. There he directed a movie for the first time. It was called “The Bad Seed”. Then he received word that producers in the United States had accepted one of his scripts. Billy Wilder left Europe for America.
Billy Wilder had only eleven dollars when he arrived to settle in the United States in 1934. He decided to live in the center of American movie making, Hollywood, California. Then he formed a writing team with Charles Brackett. The two writers created many successful films together. Wilder always praised this man as a friend and teacher whose humor and expert direction greatly influenced his work.
In his love stories, Billy Wilder did not follow the Hollywood tradition of sweet boy-meets-girl situations. He had an unusual way of showing relations between men and women. Wilder died in March,2002.A current Hollywood producer said: “Billy Wilder made movies that people will never forget.”

文章讲述了Billy Wilder的生平，重要生活经历和在美国电影史上的突出贡献。
9. 细节理解题。根据第一段中He is often called the best movie maker Hollywood has ever had, known for making movies that offered sharp social comment.可知Billy Wilder被称为好莱坞有史以来最好的电影制作人，因为他的电影有尖锐的社会评论。故选B
10. 猜测词义题。此处指Billy Wilder的母亲年轻时在美国生活几年，所以她叫他Billy，因为她觉得Billy听起来像美国名字。此处的it指的是Billy这个名字，故选D.
11. 细节理解题。根据第五段Then he formed a writing team with Charles Brackett. Wilder always praised this man as a friend and teacher whose humor and expert direction greatly influenced his work.可知Charles Brackett在工作上给了Billy Wilder很大帮助，C正确。故选C.
12. 推理判断题。文章第一、二段介绍了Billy Wilder在美国电影史上的突出贡献，第三、四两段讲述了Billy Wilder的出生和早期工作情况，最后两段讲述的是Billy Wilder在美国的工作情况和创作风格。文章涉及他的各种生活经历，而不是某一方面。故选C.
【点睛】
细节理解题具体方法与步骤如下：
1.略读材料，大概了解原文，掌握中心或主旨。文章讲述了Billy Wilder的生平，重要生活经历和在美国电影史上的突出贡献。
2.按文章的体裁，作者写作的组织模式及有关的信息词。如for example, first, second…等预测应该到何处寻找自己所需要的事实。
3.将精力放在寻找你所需要的细节上。快速通篇跳读，全文扫视，找到细节出处，待找到含细节句子时，放慢速度，仔细核对比较内容，直至找到答案。如根据第四段In 1933, he went to Paris. There he directed a movie for the first time. It was called “The Bad Seed”.可知电影的名字不是“The Apartment”，A错误。根据第五段Billy Wilder had only eleven dollars when he arrived to settle in the United States in 1934.可知Billy Wilder刚到美国时状况并不好，B错误。根据第五段Wilder always praised this man as a friend and teacher whose humor and expert direction greatly influenced his work.可知Charles Brackett在工作上给了Billy Wilder很大帮助，C正确。根据最后一段In his love stories, Billy Wilder did not follow the Hollywood tradition of sweet boy-meets-girl situations. He had an unusual way of showing relations between men and women.可知Billy Wilder并没有遵循好莱坞“男女邂逅”的传统，他有一种不同寻常的表现男女关系的方式。D错误。
