Question

We have all experienced days when everything goes wrong．A day may begin well enough，but suddenly everything seems to get out of control．It seems as if a single unimportant event may cause a number of things to happen．Let us suppose that you are preparing a meal and keeping an eye on the baby at the same time．The telephone rings and this means your troubles are beginning．While you are on the phone，the baby pulls the table-cloth off the table，destroying your half-prepared meal．You hang up hurriedly and attend to your baby．Meanwhile，the meal gets burnt．As if this were not enough to bring you to tears，your husband arrives,unexpectedly bringing three guests to dinner．

Things can go wrong on a number of people on the road. During the rush hour one evening two cars hit each other and both drivers began to argue．The woman driver behind the two cars happened to be a learner．She suddenly got into a panic(恐慌)and stopped her car．This made the driver following her stop suddenly．His wife was sitting beside him holding a large cake．As she was thrown forward，the cake went right through the window and landed on the road．Seeing a cake flying through the air，a truck-driver had to stop his truck all of a sudden．The truck was carrying empty beer bottles and hundreds of them slid off the back of the truck on the road．This led to yet another angry argument．Meanwhile，the traffic piled up behind．It took the police nearly an hour to get the traffic on the move again．In the meanwhile，the truck-driver had to sweep up hundreds of broken bottles.Only two dogs were enjoying themselves from the accident，for they were happily having what was left of the cake．It was just one of those days!

试题分析：本文讲述的是我们都会经历不顺心的一天，开始时，可能还不错，但突然间似乎一切都失去了控制，许许多多的事情都赶在了同一时刻出现，好像是一件无关紧要的小事引起了一连串的连锁反应，文章列举了两个实例场景详细的说明。

1.推断题。由第二句A day may begin well enough，but suddenly everything seems to get out of control．It seems as if a single unimportant event may cause a number of things to happen。一天开始时，可能还不错，但突然间似乎一切都失去了控制，好像是一件无关紧要的小事引起了一连串的连锁反应。可知，B正确，即祸不单行。C选项比较有干扰，文章主要讲连锁反应这种情况，而并非一件小事会引起巨大的麻烦。

2.细节推断题。由第二自然段It took the police nearly an hour to get the traffic on the move again．警察花费了将近一个小时才使交通恢复过来。由此可知，当发生了交通事故之后，警察要使交通保持通畅，让司机们继续前行。故选B.

3.细节题。由While you are on the phone，the baby pulls the table-cloth off the table，destroying your half-prepared meal．就在你接电话的时候，还在把桌布从桌子上扯了下来，毁坏了你准备了一半的饭菜。可知，在你做饭过程中电话铃响起，你最好先把孩子放在远离饭桌的地方，再去接电话。故选A。

4.推断题。排除法，文章第一段就点明主旨，一件事情会引起一连串的反应，我们所有人都经历过这样的事情，故可从这则故事中，我们看到了像这样的事故其实是很普遍的。考点：记叙文

点评：像这类记叙文，讲述的是平时我们生活中的场景。在此类文体中，学生应该抓住好每段的第一句话，把握好总起句，然后对举例部分的内容可以快速的浏览不必细看，以便增加答题速度，同时答题时可以借助排除法进行作答。
