two-hourlunchisstillimportantand12:30p.m.to2p.m.or2:30p.m.isadead

period."可知，尽管在大城市传统在消失，但两小时的午餐依然重要，下午12点

A^onlythestrawhatsofthesamestyleweresold

B、mostAmericanpeopledon'twanttodothesameworkagainandagain

C、thestrawhatsweresoldonlyinthemountainvillage

D^thepricewillbecheaperifyoubuyalotofhatsofthesamestyle

标准答案：B

知识点解析：第一段第一句"MostAmericanpeoplehaterepeatingthesamework

endlessly…”点明了主题：大多数美国人讨厌无休止地重复同样的工作，接下来以

一位游客去一个山村买帽子的故事进一步论述该主题。由此可推知，B项正确。根

据第二段第二句"Thevillagerstherecanmakedifferentstylesofhats—hatsforold

gentlemen,forsweetandplayfillchildren,andforbeautifulyoungladies.”可矢口，那里

的村民可以制作不同款式的帽子一给老绅士的帽子，给可爱顽皮的孩子的帽子，

给漂亮的年轻女士的帽子，由此可推知，A项错误；文中并未辱及C项；根据第

三段第一句“…averynicehatthatcostfivedollars.”和第三段最后一句...you

shouldpaymeatleasttendollarseachifyouwishtogetsomanyhatsofthesame

style.”可知，如果想要买很多顶同样款式的帽子，每顶帽子至少需要付10美元，

但一顶帽子原本售价为5美元，即价格更贵了，所以D项错误，这三项均不符合

题意。故选Bo

22、Howmuchdidthenicehatcost?

A、$5.

B、$10.

C、$15.

D、$20.

标准答案：A

知识点解析：根据第三段第一句"Onedaytherecameayoungtouristwhoenteredahat

shopandfoundaverynicehatthatcostfivedollars.“可知，那顶漂亮帽子的售价为5

美元。故选A。

23、Theansweroftheshopkeeperreallymadethetourist.

A、frightened

B、pleased

C、puzzled

D、delighted

标准答案：C

知识点解析：根据第四段"How飞that?"thetouristcouldnotunderstand.可知，那位游

客不能理解店主的话，并问为什么会那样。由此可推知，C项（困惑的，迷惑不解

的）符合题意。frightened：惊吓的,害怕的;pleased：高兴,愉快；delighted：高

兴的，愉快的，快乐的，这三项均不符合题意。故选C。

24、Whydidtheshopkeeperaskthetouristtopayhimdoubleprice?

A、Becausetheshopkeepercouldn'tmaketwohundredhatsofthesamestyle.

B、Becausetheshopkeepercouldn'tstandrepeatingthesameworkendlessly.

C、Becausetheshopkeeperdidn'twanttosellhimsomanyhats.

D、Becausetheshopkeeperdidn'thaveenoughstrawtomakethehats.

标准答案：B

知识点解析：根据最后一段内容可知，店主认为如果游客让自己只做一顶那种款式

的帽子或200顶不同款式的帽子，自己不费多大劲就能完成这个生意；但是如果让

他做200顶同样款式的帽子，这几乎会把他烦死了。由此可推知，店主无法忍受无

休止地重复同样的工作，所以让游客付双倍的价格。故选B。

25NTheunderlinedpart'itwillalmostboremetodeath"inthelastparagraphmeans

that.

A^itwillbetooexpensivefortheshopkeeper

B、theshopkeeperwillbeboredanddieatonce

C、theshopkeeperwillbedying

D^itwillbetooboringfortheshopkeeper

标准答案：D」

知识点解析：结合上题解析可知，店主无法忍受无休止地重复同样的工作，这几乎

会把他烦死了。由此可准知，itwillalmostboremetodeath与D项（这对店主来说太

无聊了）意思最为接近。故选D。
