语 篇 提 能阅读理解ABill and his family have been living in the sixfamily building for years. All the neighbours got along fairly well with each other until recently. An old man and his wife used to live on the second floor. Bills mother and the old lady were good friends. Unfortunately the lady died last month. Her husband could not live alone, so he had his grandson move over and live with him. The grandson has become a problem to all the neighbours，especially to Bills family.

Everybody loves Italy. Whats not to love: the art, the food, the people . its all amazing. When I asked my sons art teacher which museums we shouldnt miss, he noted that “All of Italy is a museum.” And that is true.There is art on every corner of this country, from the sculptures (雕刻品) to the rooftops, to the tiny artisan (工匠) shops, to the historic buildings and churches. Everywhere you look, something is really old, interesting and, most of all, beautiful. In Italy you get as much from just walking around looking high and low as you do in the famous museums. Dont try to do it all, but take in all that you do.And so we learned on our recent visit there. This was our last trip together as a family before our teenage son heads off to college, so we wanted to make it a good one. We had saved up our Frequent Flyer miles for something special and this was it 11 days in Italy during spring break.If you can fly into Milan or Venice, and out of Rome, this is an itinerary (旅程) I recommend. Its easy to get between cities by rail (no car needed). We broke up our 11 days as follows：4 days Venice (Venezia)3 days Florence (Firenze)1 day Siena (Siena)3 days Rome (Roma)It was our kids first trip to Europe and I think a memorable one that only left them eager for foreign travel. The journal is online, so feel free to take advantage of what we learned.语篇解读意大利因其拥有美丽的自然风光和为数众多的人类文化遗产而被称为美丽的国度。本文作者介绍了自己一家人去意大利度假的一次经历。5The author wrote the passage mainly to _.A. offer suggestions on traveling abroadB. tell us about the history and culture of ItalyC. introduce the places of interest in ItalyD. share her familys travel experience in Italy答案与解析D写作意图题。本文作者主要介绍自己一家去意大利旅游的经历。6Before taking her kids to Italy on vacation, the author _.A. got in touch with her sons art teacher at collegeB. asked her sons teacher for some adviceC. had once visited some Italian cities on her ownD. got in touch with her son who was studying at college答案与解析B细节理解题。根据第一段末尾可知，作者去意大利之前曾征求孩子老师的意见。7Which of the following is the most attractive to the author and her family?A.
