It was only 5 o’clock in the morning. The house was quiet and Tim' s mother was still asleep. Only the sound of the big freezer broke the quiet. He’d dreamt of the cave last night. The purring (轻微颤动声) of the freezer had been the sea.                                         
Tim pulled on a sweater and put some apples into his schoolbag. It was too early for breakfast. He' d eat after he' d been through the cave, sitting on the rocks and staring at the sea.
He wished he had a proper pack. His schoolbag would have to do. What else? Sandwiches-but his mother might wake up if he started pulling out bread for sandwiches, she’d want to know why he had to leave so early. He settled for some biscuits, and left a note stuck to the table:
Gone to Michael’s. Back tonight, Tim.
The sky was high and soft and light outside, though the sun still wasn't up. Even the highway up the hill was quiet as he made his way down the street. The wind from the sea was fresh and sweet.
The sand hills still breathed heat from yesterday’s sun, though the top of the sand was cool. He ran down to the beach impatiently, but there was no one, just dry sand dancing in the early wind and seabirds marching up and down watching the waves.
The light changed suddenly. The first rays of sunlight stretched (延伸) across the sea. The sun was pushing its way over the edge of the world.
Over the first rocks, along to the point, Tim glanced back. The beach was still empty. The sun sailed higher in the sky.
He could see the cave now, even darker in the morning light. The sand turned silver then dark gold as the water flowed away from it. He had to force himself to go closer. Why was it so much more mysterious (神秘的) now? But it would be silly to go back now after so much trouble. He needn't go in all the way...
【小题1】What did Tim do at the beginning of the story?

A.He put a sweater in his schoolbag.B.He left the house quietly.
C.He had breakfast at home.D.He left a note on the freezer.
【小题2】"He settled for some biscuits” (in Paragraph 3 ) means that Tim_______.
A.had to take biscuits instead of sandwiches
B.liked biscuits better than sandwiches
C.had to leave the biscuits on the table
D.could only find some biscuits in the kitchen
【小题3】 What made it possible for Tim to see the entry to the cave?
A.The height of the first rocks.B.The ups and downs of the waves.
C.The vast stretch of the sunlit beach.D.The change in the position of the sun.
【小题4】In the story, Tim’s mood changed from_________.
A.loneliness to crazinessB.anxiousness to excitement
C.eagerness to nervousness D.helplessness to happiness


【小题1】B
【小题2】A
【小题3】D
【小题4】C

解析试题分析:本文讲述了Tim在早晨偷偷离开家到海边看日出寻找洞穴的故事,主要描述了他的心理变化。
【小题1】B 推理题。根据文章2,3段Tim pulled on a sweater and put some apples into his schoolbag. It was too early for breakfast. He' d eat after he' d been through the cave, sitting on the rocks and staring at the sea.
He wished he had a proper pack. His schoolbag would have to do. What else? Sandwiches-but his mother might wake up if he started pulling out bread for sandwiches, she’d want to know why he had to leave so early.可知他安静地偷偷地离开了家。故B正确。
【小题2】A 推理题,根据文章第三段Sandwiches-but his mother might wake up if he started pulling out bread for sandwiches, she’d want to know why he had to leave so early. He settled for some biscuits,可知如果弄三明治,会把妈妈吵醒,所以他拿了饼干。故A正确。
【小题3】D 推理题。根据文章最后一段He could see the cave now, even darker in the morning light. The sand turned silver then dark gold as the water flowed away from it. He had to force himself to go closer.可知正是光线的变化让他看见了洞穴的入口。故D正确。
【小题4】C 推理题。根据文章内容可知在一开始的时候他很急切地想知道洞穴里的情况,在文章最后一段Why was it so much more mysterious (神秘的) now? But it would be silly to go back now after so much trouble. He needn't go in all the way...可知他又有点紧张,对于以后所发生的事情很不确定,所以又有点紧张。故C正确。
