Ⅱ. 阅读理解。
A
根据短文内容，判断下面各小题的正（T）误（F）。
When we buy a house, we all want to have nice neighbours, because most of us think that it is helpful to live with some good neighbours. But what kind of neighbour is good? The answers are different.
First, it is very important to respect each other. If our neighbour wants to know more about our personal life, what will we feel? He or she may also talk with others about our personal life. Do you want to live with him or her? The answer is “No”. We will feel very sad to have this kind of neighbour and want to move away quickly.
Next, a good neighbour is always ready to help us when we need him or her. For example, if we are not at home, our good neighbour will watch our house for us.
Finally, a good neighbour should love the environment. He or she never puts rubbish here and there. Good neighbours should keep the place clean, because the good environment can make us comfortable and happy.
I think we all should learn to be good neighbours, and I also hope everyone can have good neighbours and live a happy life.
11. Living with nice neighbours is helpful. ()
12. We shouldn't talk with others about our neighbours' personal life. ()
13. A good neighbour will always want to move away if we need him or her. ()
14. If you want to be a good neighbour, you can't put rubbish everywhere. ()
15. The best title of this text should be "Buying a House with Good Neighbours". ()

【分析】做阅读理解判断正误题，需遵循“定位原文→对比表述→判断正误”的思路：先通读短文明确主旨，再针对每个小题划出关键词，回到原文找到对应信息，逐句对比题目与原文是否一致，注意规避偷换概念、反向描述等陷阱，从而得出准确判断。
【解析】11题：原文第一段明确提到“it is helpful to live with some good neighbours”，与题目表述一致，故为T；12题：原文第二段强调好邻居需互相尊重，若随意谈论他人隐私会让人不适，说明不应和别人谈论邻居的个人生活，故为T；13题：原文第三段指出好邻居会在需要时提供帮助，不会搬走，题目表述相反，故为F；14题：原文第四段说明好邻居应爱护环境，从不随地扔垃圾，与题目表述一致，故为T；15题：原文主旨是“什么样的邻居是好邻居”，而非“买房子与好邻居”，标题偏离主旨，故为F。
【答案】11.T 12.T 13.F 14.T 15.F
【知识点】阅读理解判断正误、细节理解
【点评】本题考查学生对英语短文细节信息的理解与判断能力，需精准定位原文内容，对比题目表述，难度适中。
