题文

“Everything happens for the best,” my mother said whenever I was disappointed. “If you go on, one day something good will happen.” When I graduated from college, I decided to try for a job in a radio station and then work hard to become a sports announcer (广播员).
I took a taxi to Chicago and knocked on the door of every station, but I was turned down every time because I didn’t have any working experience. Then, I went back home.
My father said Montgomery Ward wanted a sports-man to help them. I applied (申请), but I didn’t get the job, either. I was very disappointed.“Everything happens for the best,” Mom reminded me. Dad let me drive his car to look for jobs. I tried WOC Radio in Davenport, Iowa. The program director, Peter MacArthur, told me they had already had an announcer. His words made me disappointed again. After leaving his office, I was waiting for the elevator when I heard MacArthur calling after me, “What did you say about sports? Do you know anything about football?” Then he asked me to broadcast an imaginary (虚构的) game. I did so and Peter told me that I would be broadcasting Saturday’s game!
On my way home, I thought of my mother’s words again:“If you go on, one day something good will happen.”

小题1:B
小题2:B
小题3:C
小题4:C
小题5:A


试题分析：本文通过“我”求职经历验证妈妈的话：Everything happens for the best（一切都会好的）。大学刚毕业的“我”满以为会在 Chicago 能找到一份体育播音员的工作，但处处碰壁，最后经过一位好心人的指点回到上中学时的小镇，不过工作还是不好找。正当“我”因处处碰壁而大声发泄，“就连一份电台工作都找不到又怎么会当体育播音员呢?”正因为这次发泄结果被一电台主任听到并因“我”擅长体育而雇“我”做解说员。
小题1:细节理解题。根据短文第一段When I graduated from college, I decided to try for a job in a radio station and then work hard to become a sports announcer的描述，可知作者毕业后想找一份体育播音员的工作。故选B。
小题2:细节理解题。根据第二段 I was turned down every time because I didn’t have any working experience的描述可知，因为作者没有工作经验。故选B。
小题3:细节理解题。联系上下文可知，每一次作者找工作碰壁，妈妈都会说Everything happens for the best来鼓励作者。故选C。
小题4:词义猜测题。根据下文because I didn’t have any working experience. Then, I went back home.
的描述可以推知，作者因为没有工作经验而被拒绝了。故选C。
小题5:细节理解题。根据短文 Dad let me drive his car to look for jobs. I tried WOC Radio in Davenport, Iowa. ---I did so and Peter told me that I would be broadcasting Saturday’s game!的描述可知，B、C、D符合短文内容，而根据My father said Montgomery Ward wanted a sports-man to help them. I applied (申请), but I didn’t get the job, either. I was very disappointed.的描述可知，作者是喜欢在蒙哥马利.沃德的工作的。选项A不符合短文内容，故选A。
