真题解读【例】（2009年上海高考英语试卷A篇阅读理解）Even at school there had been an unhealthy competition between George and Richard.“I’ll be the first millionaire in Coleford!” Richard used to boast.“And you’ll be sorry you knew me,” George would reply “because I’ll be the best lawyer in town!”George never did become a lawyer and Richard never made any money. Instead both men opened bookshops on opposite sides of Coleford High Street. It was hard to make money from books, which made the competition between them worse.Now with only one bookshop in town, business was better for George. But sometimes he sat in his narrow, old kitchen and gazed out of the dirty window, thinking about his former rivall. Perhaps he missed him?George was very interest ed in old dictionaries, He’d recently found a collector in Australia who was selling a rare first edition. When the parcel arrived, the book was in perfect condition and George was delighted. But while he was having lunch, George glanced at the photo in the newspaper that the book had been wrapped in. He was astonished—the smiling face was older than he remembered but unmistakable! Trembling, George started reading.“Bookends have bought ten bookstores from their rivals Dylans. The company, owned by multi-millionaire Richard Pike, is now the largest bookseller in Australia. ”65. George and Rivhard were ______ at school.A. roommatesB. good friendsC. competitorsD. booksellers【参考答案】C【真题解析】细节题，从第一段“Even at school there had been an unhealthy competition between George andRichard.”及文中“But sometimes he sat in his narrow, old kitchen and gazed out of the dirty window, thinking about his formal rival”两句中的关键词“competition”及“rival”可以知道George和Richard从学校开始就是竞争者关系。

66. How did George feel about Richard after his disappearance?A. He envied Richard’s marriage.B. He thought of Richard from time to time.C. He felt lucky with no rival in town.D. He was guilty of Richard’s death.【参考答案】B【真题解析】文中“But sometimes he sat in his narrow, old kitchen and gazed out of the dirty window, thinking about his formal rival”，从中可得知Richard失踪后，George有时会想起他。

这与B选项中“from time to time”完全贴合。

67. George got information about Richard from .A. a dictionary collector in AustraliaB. the latter’s rivals DylansC. a rare first edition of a dictionaryD. the wrapping paper of a book【参考答案】D【真题解析】细节题，文中“But while he was having lunch, George glanced at the photo in the newspaper that the book had been wrapped in.”可知道George是从包裹着书本的报纸上了解到Richard的情况的。

68. What happened to George and Richard in the end?A. Both George and Richard became millionaires.B. Both of them realized their original ambitions.C. George established a successful business white Richard was missing.D. Richard became a millionaire while George had no great success.【参考答案】D【真题解析】从文章最后一段“The company, owned by multi-millionaire Richard Pike, is now the largest bookseller in Australia.”可推断Richard确实实现了梦想成为百万富翁，而George只是在镇上经营着一家书店，相比之下，成就平凡。

【例】（2010年上海高考英语试卷A篇阅读理解）The elephant was lying heavily on its side, fast asleep. A few dogs started barking at it. The elephant woke up in a terrible anger: it chased the dogs into the village where they ran for safety. That didn’t stop the elephant. It destroyed a dozen houses and injured several people. The villagers were scared and angry. Then someone suggested calling Parbati, the elephant princess.Parbati Barua’s father was a hunter of tigers and an elephant tamer. He taught Parbati to ride an elep hant before she could even walk. He also taught her the dangerous art of the elephant round-up — how to catch wild elephants.Parbati hasn’t always lived in the jungle. After a happy childhood hunting with her father, she was sent to boarding school in the city. But Parbati never got used to being there and many years later she went back to her old life. “Life in the city is too dull. Catching elephants is an adventure and the excitement lasts for days after the chase.” she says.But Parbati doesn’t catch elephants just for fun. “My work,” she says, “is to rescue man from the elephants,and to keep the elephants safe from man.” And this is exactly what Parbati has been doing for many years. Increasingly, the Indian elephant is angry: for many years, illegal hunters have attacked it and its home in the jungle has been reduced to small pieces of land. It is now fighting back. Whenever wild elephants enter a tea garden or a village, Parbati is called to guide the animals back to the jungle before they can kill.The work of an elephant tamer also involves love and devotion. A good elephant tamer will spend hours a day singing love songs to a newly captured elephant. “Eventually they grow to love their tamers and never forget them. They are also more loyal than hum ans.” she said, as she climbed up one of her elephants and sat on the giant, happy animal. An elephant princess indeed!65. For Parbati, catching elephants is mainly to .A. get long lasting excitementB. keep both man and elephants safeC. send them back to the jungleD. make the angry elephants tame【参考答案】B【真题解析】原文第四段“My work,”she says, “is to rescue man from the elephants, and to keep the elephants safe from man”，可知Parbati主要是为了保障大象与人之间的安全而驯象的。
