12、who was always complaining; The Silly King was just a silly story Sally loved；I wrote The Witch and the Rainbow Cat for Sally because of her enormous appetite for stories about witches while Dr Bonocoluss Devil is a new version of the Faust legend.

15、 asked Sally what she thought of Nicobobinus.She said it was her favourite. 【语篇解读】 本文讲述了作者自己开始撰写童话故事的初衷及根据女儿的 兴趣撰写的童话引起了巨大的反响。 4What led the writer to start writing fairy tales for her daughter? AHis daughters strong interest in fairy tales. BThe frightening ends of the past fairy tales. CHis desire
16、 to let his daughter know more stories. DHis attempt to fill his daughters bedtime with something. B 细节理解题。根据第二段可知，作者因过去的童话故事都有悲惨的结局， 不想让女儿面对这些可怕的结局，所以自己撰写童话故事。故选 B。 5We can infer from the third paragraph that the writer Awas a very productive fairy tale writer Bcreated his stories out of his own in

Once upon a time，queuing was seen as normal.During World War ，everyone had
21、 to queue up to receive their daily food supplies.In fact，if you didnt stand up and wait in line with all the others，it was seen as uncivilized(不文明的) The famous English doubledecker buses，with only one entrance，might also help explain why queuing was seen as part of British life.Almost always，there
22、is a queue to get in. But perhaps the British are tired of being pushed past by the Spanish，the Italian or the French as they queue up to get a table at a restaurant.The people of these other European countries have more than one entrance to their buses，which explains their more relaxed attitude to
23、the queue. Two minutes is now the longest time most British people are prepared to stand and wait.But could it be that the Internet，which allows us to carry out tasks quickly，is the main reason why British people are no longer prepared to queue? “Used to buying without delay，customers are even givin
24、g up purchases rather than wait their turn，” says Stuart Neal of Barclaycard.“Shoppers are also less likely to queue for long if the item they are buying is of low value.” Perhaps I will have to replace “queuing” with “impatience” in my list of things I relate to the British. 【语篇解读】 英国人一向以绅士风度而著称，排队
25、等候也曾一度是英国特 有的景象。然而网络的便捷却使英国人渐渐失去了耐心，有时候顾客宁愿放弃购 买的东西也不愿意排队等候。 8What can we learn about the tradition of queuing in Britain? AIt was a product of the slow pace of life. BIt was a long time tradition as old as the Queen. CIt was considered a symbol of a civilized behavior. DIt has made the British diff

27、of life D 细节理解题。根据第六段第二句及第七段的内容可知，主要原因是因特 网改变了人们的生活方式。 10It can be learned from the text that Athe British get impatient with queuing for long Bthe British have to queue to receive foods Cthe British like to eat in foreign restaurants Dthe British prefer to take doubledecker buses A 推理判断题。根据第六段第一句和第
28、七段可知，英国人对于排队不再那 么有耐心了，两分钟的等候时间已经是大多数英国人能接受的等待上限了。故 A 项正确。 11The authors main purpose of writing the passage is Ato tell us the influence of the Internet on the British ways of life B to compare the cultural differences between Britain and other European countries Cto talk about the changes in the at
29、titude to queuing in Britain Dto report his research on the British ways of life C 写作目的题。 作者在文章开头提出 queuing 和女王一样都是英国生活的重 要组成部分，然后在第二段话题一转，提到原属于英国人传统的这一特点却不复 存在了，然后对这种变化展开分析，最后用“Perhaps I will have to replace queuing withimpatiencein my list of things I relate to the British.”来照应开头，起到首尾呼应 的作用，由此可知，文
30、章的中心内容就是谈论英国人对于排队等候态度的转变。 故答案选 C。 D A man going abroad to work leaves his young lady crying.“Dont worry， and I will write to you every day， ” he said.For years he did write to her.But since he was happy with his job， he had no immediate plans of going home.One day， he received a wedding invitation.H
