I had just gone to bed after a very hard day when the phone rang. It was an eccentric(怪僻的)farmer. I had never met him before although, I had often heard people talk about him. He sounded quite nervous and he had been talking for a minute or so before I understood anything. Even then all I could make out was that someone called Milly had had a very bad accident. I had not the slightest idea who she was but I obviously had to go.

It had been snowing heavily that day and I did not know the way. I had been driving for at least an hour when I finally found his place. He was standing there, waiting for me. It seemed Milly had died. “She meant more to me than anyone…even my wife!” he said. I could see that he had been crying. I thought something terrible had taken place, a possible scandal(丑闻). I was even more shocked when he told me he had put her in the barn(厩). “I wouldn't leave her out in the cold!” he said.

Milly had clearly been a secret lover of his. I was about to tell him he could not expect me to cover anything up when he opened the barn door. He lifted his candle and I saw a dark figure on the ground. “She was such a good cow! I wouldn't let anyone but a doctor touch her!” he said, and burst into tears again.

试题分析:这篇短文主要介绍了一个古怪的农夫给一个医生打电话要给马里看病,医生以为那是农夫的情人,但其实那是农夫的牛。

1.词意猜测题。根据短文第一段he had been talking for a minute or so before I understood anything描述,在我能理解某事前他一直讲了大约有一分钟左右。故后文是我能听懂的是一个叫马里的人出了一起事故。故选B。

2.推理判断题。根据第二段. I thought something terrible had taken place, a possible scandal(丑闻). I was even more shocked when he told me he had put her in the barn(厩).描述我以为是一件丑闻。当他告诉我他已经把她放在厩我就更震惊了。我认为那是他的情人,所以应该在屋子里,故选C。

3.上下文可知那头牛,马里,病的很严重,所以农夫才找医生,故选C。

4.推理判断题。根据“She was such a good cow! I wouldn't let anyone but a doctor touch her!”根据农夫的话可以判断,他对医生治愈牛给予了巨大的希望,故选B。

5.推理判断题。根据“She was such a good cow! I wouldn't let anyone but a doctor touch her!”根据农夫的话,可知作者是个医生,故选C。

考点:故事类短文阅读。
