单选题 Dear Linda,
I have been in England three months now. I hope you don't think I' ve forgotten you. There have been so many places to see and so many things to do that I've not had much time for writing letters.
I shall soon be starting my studies at King's College. So far I've been learning about England and British ways of living. I won't tell you about London. There are plenty of books you can read and plenty of pictures you can look at. I'm sure you'll be more interested to know what I think about the life here.
I find some of the customs(风俗)new and interesting. People here do not shake hands as much as we do in Europe. During the first few weeks I was often surprised because people did not put out their hands when I met them. Men raise their hats to women but not to each other.
Your' s Alice

单选题 The writer came to London from ______ .
【正确答案】 B
【答案解析】解答本题要从最后一段中找关键句。即英国人不像欧洲人握手那么频繁。由此可推知作者来自欧洲。
单选题 The writer ______ .
【正确答案】 C
【答案解析】从第一句作者自述来英国已三个月,可知她是三个月以前到达的,故选C。
单选题 She has ______ .
【正确答案】 D
【答案解析】第一节最后一句作者说她有很多地方要看很多事要做,所以没有很多时间写信,not much time意为“时间不是很多”,可知,本题不是完全否定,故D为正确答案。
单选题 She came to England to ______ .
【正确答案】 A
【答案解析】本题说明她来英国的目的,从第二段第一句可知她是来学习的,而下句所述她学了一些英国人的生活方式,这并非是她来英国的主要目的,这只不过是为以后在大学里学习服务的;更不是来谋生的。故A为正确选择。
