题文

Harry came in a minute after James. There was a letter for him, too, which he opened at once. It was from the secretary (秘书) of a company, offering him a post (职位) in their office. He was told to be there at 10 a. m. the next morning, as there were others who wanted the job. James got back from the play at midnight. He was sleepy. “That letter can be opened in the morning,” he thought. The next morning when he woke up, he at once jumped out of bed, tore(撕)it open-his face fell. It was a similar letter to the one Harry had received the night before. But James’ chance was gone. It was five to ten, and he could never be at the office in time. 小题1:One evening James came in in a great hurry because       .

答案

小题1:C 小题2:D 小题3:A

试题分析：短文大意：杰姆斯和哈里来到伦敦同住在一个旅馆。一天晚上杰姆斯匆匆回来，看见桌子上有一封信，害怕看剧迟到就没看。杰姆斯从剧院回来已是午夜第二天早上，当他醒来时，他立刻从床上跳起来，把信撕开，顿时他的脸色变了。这是一份类似哈利前一天晚上收到的信，但杰姆斯错过了求职的机会。 小题1:细节理解题。根据第二段前两句James came in in a great hurry one evening。A friend had offered him a ticket for a play可知选C。 小题2:细节理解题。根据第四段第四句The next morning when he woke up, he at once jumped out of bed, tore(撕)it open可知选D。 小题3:词义猜测题。根据文章最后It was a similar letter to the one Harry had received the night before. But James’ chance was gone. It was five to ten, and he could never be at the office in time.可推知划线句旳意思是他为错过机会而感到后悔，所以选A。
