those memories are some of the few i have of the heat wave of 1962. theyre really memories of the screen, not memories of my life.本文讲述了作者和作者的兄弟为了逃避酷暑，一连几天在电影院把两部相同的电影看了一遍又一遍，直到耳熟能详。1in which year did the author first live in a place with an air conditioner?a. 1952.b. 1962.c. 1972.d. 1982.答案c解析从第一段中的“this was 1962, and i would not live in a place with an air conditioner for another ten years”可选c。2what does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 3 refer to?a. the heat.b. the theater.c. the music man. d. the man who shot liberty valance.答案d解析根据第三段中的“then, we sat and watched the music man followed by the man who shot liberty valance. wed already seen the second movie once before.”可知it指的是第二部电影the man who shot liberty valance。3what do we know about mr. bellow?a. he loved children very much.b. he was a fan of john wayne.c. he sold air conditioners.d. he was a movie star.答案b解析根据第三段中的“. because mr. bellow loved anything with john wayne in it”可知mr. bellow很喜欢john wayne，故选b。4why did the author and his/her brother see the same movies several times?a. the two movies were really wonderful.b. they wanted to avoid the heat outside.c. the manager of the theater was friendly.d. they liked the popcorn and the soda at the theater.答案b解析根据第一段中的“scorching” (very hot)以及第二段中的“movie theaters were one of the few places you could sit all day and most important sit in air conditioning”可推知，他们的目的是避暑。5what can we learn from the last paragraph?a. the author turned out to be a great singer.b. the author enjoyed the heat wave of 1962.c. the authors life has been changed by the two movies.d. the author considers the experience at the theater unforgettable.答案d解析最后一段作者说到时至今日他仍然会唱the man who shot liberty valance里的歌，会背诵里面的对白，很少会说起1962年的热浪，但是会时常说起这部电影，说明作者很怀念那段在电影院度过的时光。三、完形填空mark was a great kid from a bad neighborhood. crime, drugs, fighting and poverty: you name the 1 and his neighborhood had it. a scholarship fund 2 his tuition to catholic high school, where he was a great baseball player. mark 3 in the classroom, though. he was bright, but behind, perhaps due to a 4 home environment. but there were problems 5 the time for all he needed to do. some felt mark should give up sports and 6 schooling. but, in reality, if he was going to attend college, he would need his 7 . a fellow teacher, mrs. jones, 8 to tutor mark in math. i helped mark with other areas of work. no one 9 us. mrs.jones 10 it up this way: “pay day doesnt always come on mondays.”when we were not working with mark to 11 his skills for the act, marks dad took him to various 12 to talk with both baseball and football program coaches. he settled on the one college that offered him 13 to play both sports. but he 14 a good act score.it took months to receive the 15 of college entrance exams. one afternoon after school, mark rushed into my office and yelled, “im going to college!
