But while Wayne said it was love at first sight for him, Laurie said their first meeting came up short.“He talked about the size of my hands and feet, which is kind of a nono，” said Laurie, 46.“And then the second time we had a chance to talk, I figured out he was a really good guy.”They have been married for eight years, but it took the Hallquists until this year to contact Guinness World Records.The couple said they were discouraged at first from making a play for worlds tallest couple, because they read online that a man and a woman each standing over 7 feet had married in the 19th century.Only this year did they realize they could compete in another category: worlds tallest living married couple.Guinness previously listed a couple in EnglandWilco and Keisha van KleefBoltonas the worlds tallest couple at a combined height of 13 feet, 3 inches.文章大意：本文介绍了获得目前世界最高在世夫妻称号的霍尔奎斯特夫妇。56Why their first meeting came up short is that_.A.Wayne is much older than Laurie B.Wayne likes playing jokesC.Wayne said something rude about LaurieD.Wayne is just a wire splicer答案：C细节理解题。根据第八段第一句话判断。句意：现年46岁的劳瑞说：“他谈论我的手脚太小，这几乎是不可接受的。”。57According to the passage, all the following statements are NOT true except_.A.Laurie liked Wayne at first sight while Wayne didntB.Wilco and Keisha dont like their Guinness recordC.The couple read the information of the tallest couple through the InternetD.Wayne met Laurie in a friends party答案：B主旨大意题。本文介绍了获得目前世界最高在世夫妻称号的霍尔奎斯特夫妇的一些情况。58What does the underlined phrase “sizing up” mean_？A.forming an opinion B.giving a suggestionC.making a plan Dmaking a decision答案：A猜测词义题。根据第六段判断。句意：霍尔奎斯特夫妇说，2003年当他们在一个教堂的单身俱乐部相遇时，他们可以察觉到，因为他们的高度，周围的其他人都在估摸着两人也许会擦出火花。59What would be the best title for the passage?A.The worlds tallest couple in historyB.The worlds tallest living coupleC.Wayne and Laurie : an ideal matchD.Wayne and Laurie : a new world record holder答案：B细节理解题。根据倒数第三段判断。句意：这对夫妇说，他们一开始想申请世界最高夫妻称号，但这一想法遭到了打击，因为他们在网上查到19世纪有一对夫妻两人的身高都超过了7英尺。B (2012沈阳四校协作体月考)Bluegills, which are small enough to fit in your hand, are the fish that are protecting our water. They are common freshwater fish native to America and are also known as bream or sunfish. According to the Associated Press, the bluegills were originally used by the Army to make sure water was safe. Now San Francisco, New York City, Washington DC and several other cities use the bluegill monitoring system.The bluegill system works by constantly filling the fish tank with city or town water. A small group of bluegills swim in the local water and are closely monitored. Bluegills are very sensitive to their environment. Changes in the environment cause their behavior and breathing patterns to change. They cough if the water is polluted. Fish cough by flexing their gills(鳃)to get rid of unwanted particles, like grain of sand, from their breathing passages. If the bluegills are coughing the computer sends an alarm via email. The bluegills in New York City discovered an diesel spill(柴油外溢)hours before the usual monitors. Adding the bluegill system to regular water protection methods resulted in an early warning and safer water.文章大意：Bluegills这一美国土生土长的小鱼成为了人们饮用水是否安全的检验试金石。60People use the bluegill system to monitor water supplies_.Abecause they have high sensibility to their environmentBbecause they are used to swimming in the fresh waterCbecause they can cough by means of their gillsDbecause they are able to send emails by computers答案：A细节理解题。由第二段的第三、四句话“Bluegills are very sensitive to their environment.
