【2024高考训练】阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中，选出最佳选项。It’s hard not to feel cheated and over-charged when you receive unexpected roaming (漫游) charges while traveling abroad—whether they come from making phone calls or checking e-mails.
Jeff Gardner received an $ 11,000 bill from Verizon after spending four days in Jamaica. Before the trip, Mr. Gardner, who runs a fly-fishing business in Grayling, Michigan, said he called Verizon to find out what it would cost to use his cellphone for calls and his wireless card to check e-mails while in Jamaica. He said he was told that calls would be about $ 2 a minute and that there would be no extra charges for data as he was on an unlimited plan. The latter part turned out to be wrong.
“I don’t mind paying a fair amount for fair service, but $11,000 for four days is ridiculous,” said Mr. Gardner, who used his phone carefully and economically on the trip. He also tried to check and send e-mails using his wireless card, but quickly gave up after the e-mails didn’t go through. Still, his Verizon bill said more than 500,000 kilobytes (千字节) of data was delivered while he was in Jamaica, an amount Mr. Gardner said is 100 times what he normally uses in a month.
As travelers increasingly use smart phones abroad in the same way they do at home—to check e-mails, update Facebook and Twitter and pull up online maps—many are facing costly roaming fees, which providers charge when customers use their phones outside their service area. In fact, roaming charges have gotten so out of hand that the Federal Communications Commission has proposed a plan that would require wireless companies to send their customers a voice or text message when they are approaching their plan’s limit, when they have reached that limit and when they are starting to result in roaming fees.
1. Why did Jeff Gardner call Verizon before his trip to Jamaica?
A. To hand over his business.
B. To check his cellphone bill
C. To find out information about Jamaica.
D. To find out information about roaming charges.
2. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 mean?
A. Extra charges were made for Jeff Gardner’s data delivery.
B. Jeff Gardner’s calls were charged over $2 per minute.
C. Jeff Gardner’s plan turned out to be limited.
D. Jeff Gardner had difficulty delivering data abroad.
. During the trip, Jeff Gardner______.
A. was careless with phone use
B. delivered no more data than at home
C. received quite poor e-mail services
D. frequently used his wireless card to send e-mails
. What should wireless companies do according to the Federal Communications Commission?
A. Make customers know when they’re outside their service area.
B. Get customers informed when they’re near the limit of their plan.
C. Stop serving customers when they’ve reached their plan’s limit.
D. Limit some services to reduce the amount of roaming charges abroad.

阅读下列四篇短文，从每小题后所给的A,B,C或D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
“Mum，what does it mean when someone tells you that they have a skeleton(骨骼) in the closet(衣橱)？” Jessica asked. “A skeleton in the closet？” her mother paused thoughtfully, “Well, it's something that you would rather not have anyone else know about. For example, if in the past, someone in Dad's
family had been arrested for stealing a horse, it would be ‘a skeleton in his family's closet’. He really wouldn't want any neighbor to konw about it.”
“Why pick on my family？” Jessica's father said with anger. “Your family history isn't so good, you know. Wasn't your greatgreatgrandfather a prisoner who was transported to Australia for his crimes？” “Yes, but people these days say that you are not a real Australian unless your ancestors arrived as prisoners.” “Gosh, sorry I asked. I think I understand now，” Jessica cut in before things grew worse.
After dinner, the house was very quiet. Jessica's parents were still quite angry with each other.
Her mother was ironing clothes and every now and then she glared at her husband, who hid behind his newspaper pretending to read. When she finished, she gathered the freshly pressed clothes in her arms and walked to Jessica's closet. Just as she opened the door and reached in to hang a skirt, a bony arm stuck out from the dark depths and a bundle of white bones fell to the floor. Jessica's mother sank into a faint(晕倒), waking only when Jessica put a cold, wet cloth on her forehead. She looked up to see the worried faces of her husband and daughter.
“What happened? Where am I？” she asked. “You just destroyed the school's skeleton, Mum，” explained Jessica. “I brought it home to help me with my health project. I meant to tell you, but it seemed that as soon as I mentioned skeletons and closets, it caused a problem between you and Dad.” Jessica looked in amazement as her parents began to laugh madly. “They're both crazy，” she thought.
本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了一个幽默故事。杰西卡问妈妈“衣橱里放骨骼”是什么意思，妈妈解释说那是不为人知的秘密，并以杰西卡爸爸的祖先做例子，引起了杰西卡爸爸的恼火。饭后，杰西卡爸爸依然生气，杰西卡妈妈熨完衣服后把衣服放到衣橱里，结果发现了衣橱里的骨骼而吓昏过去。原来杰西卡为了完成学校的健康计划，把骨骼带回了家并放在了衣橱里。
1．According to Jessica's mother, “a skeleton in the closet” means ________.
A．a family honor
B．a family secret
C．a family story
D．a family treasure
答案：B。细节理解题。由第一段的“it's something that you would rather not have anyone else know about”可知，B项正确。

A．They were brought to Australia as prisoners.
B．They were the earliest people living in Australia.
C．They were involved in some crimes in Australia.

答案：A。推理判断题。根据第二段的“but people these days say that you are not a real Australian unless your ancestors arrived as prisoners”可推断A项正确，即一些澳大利亚人的祖先是被作为犯人带到澳大利亚。
3．Jessica's mother fell down into a faint because she was ________.
A．knocked
B．frightened
C．injured
D．surprised
答案：B。推理判断题。杰西卡的妈妈是看到了衣橱里的骨骼而晕倒的，我们推断应该是吓倒的。
