    精选优质文档-倾情为你奉上新SAT阅读真题四Exercise 4This passage is excerpted from Louisa May Alcott, Rose in Bloom, originally published in 1876.Three young men stood together on a wharf one brightOctober day awaiting the arrival of an ocean steamer with an impatience which found a vent in lively skirmishes with a small lad, who pervaded the premises like a will-o'-the-wisp and afforded much amusement to the other groups assembled there."They are the Campbells, waiting for their cousin, who has been abroad several years with her uncle, the doctor," whispered one lady to another as the handsomest of the young men touched his hat to her as he passed, lugging the boy, whom he had just rescued from a little expedition down among the piles."Which is that?" asked the stranger."Prince Charlie, as he's called a ne fellow, the most promising of the seven, but a little fast, people say," answered the rst speaker with a shake of the head. "Are the others his brothers?""No, cousins. The elder is Archie, a most exemplary young man. He has just gone into business with the merchant uncle and bids fair to be an honor to his family. The other, with the eyeglasses and no gloves, is Mac, the odd one, just out of college.""And the boy?""Oh, he is Jamie, the youngest brother of Archibald, and the pet of the whole family. Mercy on us he'll be in if they don't hold on to him!"The ladies' chat came to a sudden end just there, for by the time Jamie had been shed out of a hogshead, the steamer hove in sight and everything else was forgotten. As it swung slowly around to enter the dock, a boyish voice shouted, "There she is! I see her and Uncle and Phebe! Hooray for Cousin Rose!" And three small cheers were given with a will by Jamie as he stood on a post waving his arms like a windmill while his brother held onto the tail of his jacket.Yes, there they were, Uncle Alec swinging his hat like a boy, with Phebe smiling and nodding on one side and Rosekissing both hands delightedly on the other as she recognized familiar faces and heard familiar voices welcoming her home."Bless her dear heart, she's bonnier than ever! Looks like a Madonna doesn't she? with that blue cloak round her, and her bright hair ying in the wind!" said Charlie excitedly as they watched the group upon the deck with eager eyes."Madonnas don't wear hats like that. Rose hasn't changed much, but Phebe has. Why, she's a regular beauty!" answered Archie, staring with all his might at the dark-eyed young woman with the brilliant color and glossy black braids shining in the sun."Dear old Uncle! Doesn't it seem good to have him back?" was all Mac said, but he was not looking at "dear old uncle" as he made the fervent remark, for he saw only the slender blond girl nearby and stretched out his hands to meet hers, forgetful of the green water tumbling between them.During the confusion that reigned for a moment as the steamer settled to her moorings, Rose looked down into the four faces upturned to hers and seemed to read in them something that both pleased and pained her. It was only a glance, and her own eyes were full, but through the mist of happy tears she received the impression that Archie was about the same, that Mac had decidedly improved, and that something was amiss with Charlie. There was no time for observation, however, for in a moment the shoreward rush began, and before she could grasp her traveling bag, Jamie was clinging to her like an ecstatic young bear. She was with difculty released from his embrace to fall into the gentler ones of the elder cousins, who took advantage of the general excitement to welcome both blooming girls with affectionate impartiality. Then the wanderers were borne ashore in a triumphal procession, while Jamie danced rapturous jigs before them even on the gangway.Archie remained to help his uncle get the luggage through the Custom House, and the others escorted the damsels home. No sooner were they shut up in a carriage, however, than a new and curious constraint seemed to fall upon the young people, for they realized, all at once, that their former playmates were men and women now.Which choice best summarizes the passage?A The passage provides an explanation of relationships within a family.B The passage presents a revelation about children growing older.C The passage captures a conversation regarding reuniting cousins.D The passage describes an anecdote about traveling by ship.QUESTION 2 OF 11Over the course of the passage, the attitude of the cousins shifts fromA preoccupation to constraint.B apprehension to embarrassment.C anticipation to reticence.D contemplation to difdence.QUESTION 3 OF 11Which statement best characterizes the relationship among the reunited cousins?A They are excited to get back to their ordinary lives and friendships.B They have changed too dramatically to nd anything in common.C The younger cousins help put the older cousins at ease.D Their growing up has put limitations on their relationships.QUESTION 4 OF 11As used in line 3 (“vent”) , “vent” most nearly meansA opening.B outlet.C crack.D passage.QUESTION 5 OF 11The conversation between the lady and the stranger in lines 726(“"They are the Campbells, waiting for their cousin, who has beenabroad several years with her uncle, the doctor," whispered one lady to another as the handsomest of the young men touched his hat to her as he passed, lugging the boy, whom he had just rescued from a little expedition down among the piles.”) (“They . . . him”) serves primarily to A show how the town locals tend to gossip about the family. B establish the relationships among the reuniting family. C introduce the traits of the family members who are waiting.D demonstrate the ladys lack of knowledge about the family.QUESTION 6 OF 11Which choice provides the best evidence for the answer to the previous question?A lines 78(“They are the Campbells, waiting for theircousin, who has been abroad several years with her uncle, the doctor,"”)(“They . . . doctor”)B lines 1415(“"Prince Charlie, as he's called a ne fellow, the most promising of the seven, but a little fast, people say," ”)(“Prince . . . say”)C lines 1820(“The elder is Archie, a most exemplary young man. He has just gone into business with the merchant uncle and bids fair to be an honor to his family. ”)(“The . . . family”)D lines 2426(“"Oh, he is Jamie, the youngest brother of Archibald, and the pet of the whole family. Mercy on us he'll be in if they don't hold on to him”)(“Oh . . . him”)QUESTION 7 OF 11Archies comments in lines 4445 (“"Madonnas don't wear hats like that. Rose hasn't changed much, but Phebe has. Why, she's a regular beauty!”) (“Madonnas . . . beauty”) primarily indicate that heA disagrees strongly with Charlie.B nds Phebe to be beautiful.C thinks Rose looks like a Madonna.D feels distracted by Rose and Phebe.QUESTION 8 OF 11The description (lines 5053(“ was all Mac said, but he was not looking at "dear old uncle" as he made the fervent remark, for he saw only the slender blond girl nearby and stretched out his hands to meet hers, forgetful of the green water tumbling between them.”) ) that follows Mac's comment in line 49 (“"Dear old Uncle! Doesn't it seem good to have him back?”) ("Dear . . . back") reveals that Mac isA not actually paying attention to his uncle.B unaware of the possibility of falling in the ocean.C more excited to see his uncle than he is to see Rose.D distracted by all the excitement in the crowd.QUESTION 9 OF 11It can be inferred that Rose is "both pleased and pained" when she views her cousins from the ship because sheA feels exhausted and confused after a long journey by sea.B believes her cousins dont recognize her anymore.C senses that her relationship with her cousins has changed.D concludes that her cousins lives have gotten better without her.QUESTION 10 OF 11Which choice provides the best evidence for the answer to the previous question?A lines 5761(“It was only a glance, and her own eyes were full, but through the mist of happy tears she received the impression that Archie was about the same, that Mac had decidedly improved, and that something was amiss with Charlie.”)(“It . . . Charlie”)B lines 6468(“ She was with difculty released from his embrace to fall into the gentler ones of the elder cousins, who took advantage of the general excitement to welcome both blooming girls with affectionate impartiality. ”)(“She . . . impartiality”)C lines 6164(“ There was no time for observation,however, for in a moment the shoreward rush began, and before she could grasp her traveling bag, Jamie was clinging to her like an ecstatic young bear.”)(“There . . . bear”)D lines 7376(“No sooner were they shut up in a carriage, however, than a new and curious constraint seemed to fall upon the young people, for they realized, all at once, that their former playmates were men and women now.”)(“No . . . now”)QUESTION 11 OF 11As used in lines 6768 (“affectionate impartiality”), the phrase “affectionate impartiality” most nearly meansA restraint.B aloofness.C tenderness.D enthusiasm.参考答案:BCDBBABACDA专心-专注-专业
