Ⅴ. 阅读理解
（山东东营中考）I do well at school. I study a lot, but for some reason, I have a very bad habit of losing things.
Last summer, I was on vacation with my family on a beach. On the first day, my father gave me a watch to take the place of the one I had lost the year before. “You need to have a watch, so take good care of this one,” he said.
The next day, I went swimming. The sun was shining on the water. The water was warm and beautiful. I swam. I floated(漂浮). I dived（潜水）. I really enjoyed being in the water.
By the time I returned to the beach, I was quite tired, so I lay down. At that moment, I remembered my watch and looked to see what time it was. But it was gone! I searched all afternoon, but I could not find it.
That night at dinner, I arrived with my sleeves(袖子) down, hoping no one would notice that I didn’t have my watch.
My sister asked, “What time is it?”
“Ask Tom,” my mother said. “He has the expensive new watch.”
Dad looked at me and said, “Don’t tell me that you’ve lost the watch already!”
“No!” I said. I was sweating(出汗) with great fear. I knew I was going to be caught in a terrible lie (谎言). Just then, there was an announcement, “Ladies and gentlemen, a very nice watch was found on the beach today. If you lost one and can identify(确认) it, please come to the front desk.”
Immediately(立即), I knew what I had to do. I slowly got up, with my whole family staring at me. I went to the desk. There it was. The watch was not broken. It was still working.
I walked back to the table, sat down and said in a low voice, “I’m sorry I didn’t tell the truth.” My family smiled. They knew that I had finally learnt my lesson.

【语篇导读】本文主要讲述了Tom经常弄丢自己的东西,在去年夏天的一次旅行中,他懂得了要勇敢面对错误,不能说谎的故事。
1. A 细节理解题。根据“You need to have a watch, so take good care of this one”可知,因为Tom需要手表,所以爸爸给了他一块新的手表。
2. C 细节理解题。根据“I searched all afternoon, but I could not find it.”可知,在丢失新手表后,Tom花费了整整一个下午找手表。
3. B 细节理解题。根据“I was sweating with great fear.”可知,Tom说了“不”之后,感到害怕、担心。
4. C 推理判断题。根据“I was sweating with great fear. I knew I was going to be caught in a terrible lie.”可知,Tom这次撒谎了,并认为撒了可怕的谎言,感觉到巨大的恐惧,说明他平时不撒谎。
