参考译文
一个法国人和他的妻子在一个意大利小镇上最好的旅馆里投宿。一天晚上,他独自一个人出去散步。小街黑漆漆静悄悄的。突然他觉得后面有人。他转过头去,看见一个年轻的意大利人迅速地从他身边经过。
当这个人已经几乎看不见了的时候,法国人突然发现他的表丢了。他觉得肯定是这个意大利人偷了他的表。他决定跟踪他,把表拿回来。
不一会,法国人就追上了意大利人。两个人都不懂对方的语言。法国人用拳头吓唬意大利人,并指着意大利人的手表。最后,意大利人摘下了手表,并把它给了法国人。
当他回到旅馆的时候,法国人告诉妻子所发生的事。当他的妻子指着桌子上的手表的时候,他大吃一惊。现在,他意识到,他误抢了手表,而手表是意大利人的。
答案及解析
61.A【解析】答案在第一自然段第二句。一天晚上,他独自出门了。
62.C【解析】答案在第一自然段。根据上下文,那个意大利年轻人几乎走得看不见了,这时,法国人发现他的表没有了。他想一定是意大利人偷了他的表,所以他决定跟着那位年轻人,把表要回来。
63.B【解析】答案在第二自然段。根据上下文,法国人赶上那个年轻人后,向他挥拳头,并指着他的表。最后,年轻人把表脱下来给了他。根据句意,法国人应是“吓唬、恐吓”那个年轻人,frighten应是动词。threat为名词,terrify意为“使恐惧,使惊恐;恐吓”,happy是形容词。
64.C【解析】答案在第二自然段。根据上一题的解释可以看出,年轻人认为法国人在拦路抢劫,他很害怕,所以才会把表给他。
65.B【解析】答案在第三自然段最后一句。根据上下文,那位法国人回到旅馆,看到桌子上的表.才意识到自己误抢了那个意大利年轻人的表。
