Having returned from her round trip, the angry woman stood outside the ticket office of the station."The railway owes me ￡12," she said to Harry Jenks, the young man working at the office."You sold me a ticket for May 22nd, but there was no ship to Jersey that night. So my daughter and I had to stay in a hotel. It cost me￡12."        Harry was worried. He remembered selling the woman a return ticket. "come into the office, Madam," he said politely. "I'll just check the Jersey timetable for May 22nd."      The woman and her little girl followed him inside. She was quite right, as Harry soon discovered. There was no sailing on May 22nd. How could he have made such a careless mistake? He shouldn't have sold her a ticket for that day. Wondering what to do, he smiled at the child."You look sun burnt," he said to her."Did you have a nice holiday in Jersey?"      "Yes," she answered, shyly."The beach was lovely. And I can swim too!"      "That's fine," said Harry. "My little girl can swim a bit yet. Of course, she's only three…"      "I'm four," the child said proudly. "I'll be four and a half."      Harry turned to the mother."I remember your ticket, Madam,"he said."But you didn't get one for your daughter, did you?"      "Er, well…" the woman looked at the child. "I mean… she hasn't started school yet. She's only four."      "A four-year-old child must have a ticket, Madam. A child's return ticket to Jersey costs… let me see… ￡13.50. So if the railway pays for you hotel, you will owe ￡1.50. The law is the law, but since it's me who made the mistake…"      The woman stood up, took the child's hand and left the office.

  命题往往从故事的情节、人物或事件的之间的关系、作者的态度及意图、故事前因和后果的推测等方面着手，考查学生对细节的辨认能力以及推理判断能力。
  阅读这类材料时，同学们一定要根据主要情节掌握文章主旨大意，同时抓住每一个细节，设身处地根据文章内容揣摩作者的态度和意图，根据情节展开想象，即使是碰到深层理解题也可迎刃而解。

• 故事类阅读注意：

  阅读故事类的材料，应该抓住人物线索、地点线索、时间线索和情节发展线索。
  
  特别注意的是，以上线索往往是并存的。因为情节的发展总是涉及到人物的变化、时间的推移、场景的变换等。
  而阅读材料后的阅读理解往往会围绕这些内容设计一些事实类的理解题。
