语 篇 提 能阅读理解AHundreds of years ago, a Roman army came north from England to make war on Scotland. The Scots, a brave people, love their country. They fought hard to drive the enemy out of Scotland. But there were too many of the Romans. It looked as if the Romans would win.One night, the leader of the Scots marched his soldiers to the top of a hill. “We will rest here tonight, my men，” he said，“Tomorrow we will fight one more battle. We must win, or we will die.” They were all very tired. So they ate their supper quickly and fell asleep. There were four guards on duty, but they were very tired, too, and one by one, they fell asleep.The Romans were not asleep. Quickly they gathered at the foot of the hill. Slowly they went up the hill. Closer they came to the sleeping Scots. They were almost at the top. A few minutes more the war would be over. Suddenly, one of them put his foot on a thistle(蓟). He cried out and his sudden cry woke the Scots. In a minute they were on their feet and ready for a battle. The fighting was hard, but it did not last long. The Scots wiped out the Romans and saved Scotland.The thistle is not a beautiful plant. It has sharp needles all over it. Few people liked it. But the people of Scotland liked it so much that they made it their national flower.1Hundreds of years ago，the Romans _.Acame from the north through England to make war on ScotlandBcame to the north of Scotland from England to make war on ScotlandCcame from the north of England to fight the ScotsDcame to the north from the south of Britain to fight the Scots2At the shout of a Roman soldier, all the Scots who were asleep at the hill _.Abegan to fight the Romans hardBstood up without putting on their shoes and began to fightCwoke and rose immediately，ready to fightDput their feet into their shoes at once and were ready to fight3The result of the war is that _.Athe Romans killed all the ScotsBthe Scots defeated the RomansCthe Scots were defeatedDthe Scots were driven out of Scotland4The Scots made thistle their national flower because thistle _.Ais lovely, though not beautifulBgave them happinessCis a kind of useful plantDhelped the Scots in wiping out the Romans答案与解析：1解析：细节理解题。由文章第一段第一句可知C项正确。答案：C2解析：细节理解题。由倒数第二段中“He cried out and his sudden cry woke the Scots.In a minute they were on their feet and ready for a battle.”知C项正确。答案：C3解析：细节理解题。由倒数第二段的“The Scots wiped out the Romans and saved Scotland.”可知B项正确。答案：B4解析：细节理解题。根据上下文可知，蓟帮助苏格兰人打败了罗马人。答案：DBRead the following reviews for movies that are showing at the moment.
