二、閱讀理解
(2024·新課標(biāo)全國(guó)卷Ⅰ)
The freezing Northeast hasn't been a terribly fun place to spend time this winter, so when the chance came for a weekend to Sarasota, Florida, my bags were packed before you could say “sunshine”. I left for the land of warmth and vitamin C (維生素C), thinking of beaches and orange trees. When we touched down to blue skies and warm air, I sent up a small prayer of gratefulness. Swimming pools, wine tasting, and pink sunsets (at normal evening hours, not 4 in the afternoon) filled the weekend, but the best part—particularly to my taste, dulled by months of cold-weather root vegetables—was a 7 a．m. adventure to the Sarasota farmers' market that proved to be more than worth the early wake-up call.
The market, which was founded in 1979, sets up its tents every Saturday from 7 a．m. to 1 p．m., rain or shine, along North Lemon and State streets. Baskets of perfect red strawberries; the red-painted sides of the Java Dawg coffee truck; and most of all, the tomatoes: amazing, large, soft and round red tomatoes.
Disappointed by many a broken, vine-ripened (蔓上成熟的) promise, I've refused to buy winter tomatoes for years. No matter how attractive they look in the store, once I get them home they're unfailingly dry, hard, and tasteless. But I homed in, with uncertainty, on one particular table at the Brown's Grove Farm's stand, full of fresh and soft tomatoes the size of my fist. These were the real deal—and at that moment, I realized that the best part of Sarasota in winter was going to be eating things that back home in New York I wouldn't be experiencing again for months.
Delighted as I was by the tomatoes in sight, my happiness deepened when I learned that Brown's Grove Farm is one of the suppliers for Jack Dusty, a newly opened restaurant at the Sarasota Ritz Carlton, where—luckily for me—I was planning to have dinner that very night. Without even seeing the menu, I knew I'd be ordering every tomato on it.
語(yǔ)篇解讀 本文描述了作者在嚴(yán)冬季節(jié)去佛羅里達(dá)州的薩拉索塔市(Sarasota)過(guò)周末的感受。在溫暖如春的薩拉索塔市，各種蔬菜水果生機(jī)勃勃，而在寒冷的美國(guó)東北部，表面誘人的西紅柿卻食之無(wú)味。
1．What did the author think of her winter life in New York?
A. Exciting.
B. Boring.
C. Relaxing.
D. Annoying.
答案與解析 B 考查推理判斷。根據(jù)文章第一句話中的“The freezing Northeast hasn't been a terribly fun place to spend time this winter”可判斷，作者認(rèn)為紐約的冬天很無(wú)趣。
2．What made the author's getting up early worthwhile?
A. Having a swim.
B. Breathing in fresh air.
C. Walking in the morning sun.
D. Visiting a local farmers' market.
答案與解析 D 考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第一段最后一句中的“the best part...was a 7 a．m. adventure to the Sarasota farmers' market that proved to be more than worth the early wake-up call”可知，作者早上七點(diǎn)起床去集貿(mào)市場(chǎng)，看到各種新鮮的蔬菜水果，所以她認(rèn)為早起很值得。
3．What can we learn about tomatoes sold in New York in winter?
A. They are soft.
B. They look nice.
C. They taste great.
D. They are juicy.
答案與解析 B 考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第三段可知，多年來(lái)，作者在冬季都不買(mǎi)西紅柿。由第二句話“No matter how attractive they look in the store, once I get them home they're unfailingly dry, hard, and tasteless”可判斷，在紐約市的冬季，西紅柿在商店看起來(lái)挺好的，但是拿到家里吃起來(lái)卻沒(méi)有味道。因此答案為B。
4．What was the author going to do that evening?
A. Go to a farm.
B. Check into a hotel.
C. Eat in a restaurant.
D. Buy fresh vegetables.
答案與解析 C 考查推理判斷。根據(jù)文章的最后一段可知，看到集貿(mào)市場(chǎng)上新鮮的西紅柿，作者的幸福感大增，計(jì)劃當(dāng)晚就去薩拉索塔市一個(gè)新開(kāi)業(yè)的餐館吃飯。

19．C 根據(jù)后面的“from earlier at the door...I didn't ask her where she lived so my family hasn't been able to thank her properly for her thoughtful actions that day”可知，來(lái)訪者正是幫助過(guò)我們的那位女士。
20．B 根據(jù)后面的“I didn't ask her where she lived so my family hasn't been able to thank her properly for her thoughtful actions that day.”可知，“我”對(duì)于沒(méi)能問(wèn)她的住處感到遺憾。unfortunately“不幸地；可惜；很遺憾”，符合語(yǔ)境。
