单选题 Gerard Croiset from Holland could "see" what was going on somewhere else and he used his gift(天赋)to help the police to find missing people.
Mr Sandelius lived with his 24-year-old daughter Carol in Topeka. One day, Carol disappeared(不见了). The police looked for her everywhere and they showed her photos to everybody, but they couldn't find her. After eight weeks there was nothing else that the police could do.
Mr Sandelius was ready to try anything to find his daughter. He heard about Croiset and he called him."Can you help me?" he asked.
Croiset would never say no to people in need of help. He told Mr Sandelius that Carol was alive(活着的). "I see her somewhere near water and small boats. Now I see her riding with someone in a red car. Don't worry. You will know something in six days. "
Five clays passed and Mr Sandelius still didn't hear anything. On the sixth day, early in the morning, he came to the first floor. He saw that someone was sitting in the room. It was his daughter.
Croiset "saw" Carol from 8000 km away. He told the police where she was, and they brought her home.

单选题 How was Gerard Croiset different from other people?

【正确答案】 A

【答案解析】细节题。短文第一句即指出：Gerard Croiset from Holland could“see”what was going on somewhere else...(荷兰的Gerard Croiset能够“看到”在别处发生的事情……)，并且说他利用这一天赋来帮助警方寻找失踪者．后文又举了一个具体例子来说明。由此可知，其与众不同之处就在于他的“千里眼”。题句只是将第一句表达上稍做了改动而已，因此本题答案是[A]。其余两项中的hear(听见)和read(读)在短文中都没有提及。

单选题 What did the police do to find Carol?

【正确答案】 B

【答案解析】细节题。文章第二段提到了Carol失踪后警方所做的工作。其中第三句指出：The police looked for her everywhere and they showed her photos to everybody…(警方到处寻找她，将她的照片给每一个人看……)，对照选项内容可知[B]对。该项中的pictures就是原文中的photos。

单选题 Why did Mr Sandelius call Gerard Croiset?

【正确答案】 A

【答案解析】分析推理题。短文第二段指出警方到处寻找，却找不到Carol，8周之后警方毫无办法了。紧跟着第三段即说Mr Sandelius(即Carol的父亲)听说了Croiset这个人后，就开始给这个人打电话。由上下文文意逻辑和常识可知，Mr Sandelius是因为爱女心切，但警方又找不到她女儿，这才打电话给Croiset的。对照选项可知[A]正确。其余两项都与原文不符，原文并没有交代Carol去哪儿以及在她失踪过程中发生在她身上的事情。

单选题 What did Gerard Croiset tell Mr Sandelius?

【正确答案】 A

【答案解析】细节题。Croiset告诉Mr Sandelius的话位于短文第四段。其中的间接引语直接指出：He told Mr Sandelius that Carol was alive(他告诉Sandelius先生说Carol还活着)，这与[A]的意思一致。其余两项中，[B]说“Carol会在6周后回来”，[C]项指“Carol在8000公里外的地方开船”，都与原文不符。
