    As I jogged over the bridge and round the corner on my regular early morning run, he was standing opposite the jeweler’s, looking extremely suspicious. But the moment he saw me, instead of trying to avoid me, he came straight across the road as I drew level with the jeweler’s. Halfway across he began addressing me: “I thought you were going to…” — but his voice trailed away as he received no reply and no sign of recognition from me. It was quite obvious that he had mistaken me for someone else. But he started up again as if nothing had happened“Good morning, ” he said“Nice to bump into someone so early. Someone to talk to. I’ve taken to talking to myself on this job.”

I hate meeting people when I’m out early, and I was almost out of breath, so I just paused in my stride, nodded in a friendly manner, and went on up the road. The stranger had spoken quietly, and quite slowly. And I had noticed that he was well dressed, too. But if he looked suspicious dressed like that at that time of the morning, what about me? I was in a track suit, with an old sweater round my shoulders and a cap on my headAs to his odd remark about “talking to himself on this job”, I hadn’t paid any attention to it, although now it began to worry me. Was he perhaps a plain clothes policeman? At the time I somehow felt he was.

I had just turned the corner into the High Street when I heard the sound of breaking glass somewhere behind me, and I thought the sound came from the street I had just left. I stopped dead and almost without thinking looked back around the corner. The stranger was not there, but almost immediately an alarm bell in the jeweler’s began ringing furiously.

I found out later that a burglar had broken into the jeweler’s shop and stolen watches and rings worth about  5,000. The police are still looking into the matter, but I’m afraid to go and tell them what I know now because they might even suspect me of committing the crime, and it might be difficult for me to prove my innocence. After all, I haven’t offered my assistance as a witness, and the only other person around that morning was the “stranger” who had spoken to me.

1.From the passage we can infer that the author _____.

A.always goes past the jeweler’s

B.didn’t like talking to the strangers

C.meets a few people every morning

D.saw a plain clothes policeman that morning

2.Why did the stranger talk to the author?

A.Because the stranger took the author as someone else.

B.Because the stranger loved talking to people.

C.Because the stranger recognized the writer.

D.Because the stranger took a job of talking to himself.

3.Why did the stranger seem suspicious?

A.He was about to go into the jeweler’s.

B.He was far too friendly.

C.He was dressed too well for that time.

D.He talked to himself a lot.

4.If the writer had been on the spot, _____.

A.he might have been badly injured

B.the burglar didn’t steal very much

C.he might commit the crime to the police

1.B 2.A 3.C 4.D 5.D 【解析】 这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者晨跑时,碰到一个行为装扮怪异的人,这个人可能是砸珠宝店的罪犯,但作者因为没有证据,所以不敢去报警。 1.推理判断题。根据第二段中I hate meeting people when I’m out early, and I was almost out of breath, so I just paused in my stride, nodded in a friendly manner, and went on up the road. (我不喜欢在大清早出门的时候见人,我几乎喘不过气来,所以我只是大踏步暂停了一下,友好地点了点头,然后继续走路。) 可推断出,作者不喜欢跟陌生人讲话。B. didn’t like talking to the strangers. (不喜欢和陌生人讲话。) 符合题意。故选B项。 2.细节理解题。根据第一段中It was quite obvious that he had mistaken me for someone else. (很明显,他把我错当成别人了。)可知,这个陌生人认错人了。A. Because the stranger took the author as someone else. (因为那个陌生人把作者当成了别人。) 符合题意。故选A项。 3.细节理解题。根据第二段中“And I had noticed that he was well dressed, too. But if he looked suspicious dressed like that at that time of the morning,”(我注意到他也穿得很好,但如果他早上那个时候穿成那样看起来很可疑,那我呢?) 可推知,那个陌生人是因为穿着而显得可疑。C. He was dressed too well for that time. (他那时候穿得太讲究了。) 符合题意。故选C项。 4.推理判断题。根据这道题中If the writer had been on the spot (如果作者当时在现场),可知,这是由If引导的虚拟条件句,had been为谓语动词,时态为过去完成时,可知这是对过去的事情的假设。根据常识,犯罪活动一般发生在没有其他人的情况,因为那样会留下证人,所以假如作者当时在珠宝店那里,那个陌生人应该不会砸窗户。故选D项。 5.推理判断题。根据最后一段中and it might be difficult for me to prove my innocence. After all, I haven’t offered my assistance as a witness, and the only other person around that morning was the “stranger” who had spoken to me. (要证明我的清白可能很难。毕竟,我没有作为目击者提供帮助,那天早上周围唯一的另一个人就是和我说话的“陌生人”。) 可知,作者没有去报警,因为他无法提供有力的证据证明那个陌生人就是罪犯,反而可能会让他自己成为嫌疑犯,所以他犹豫了。D. he hesitates whether to report to the police about what he knew (他犹豫是否要向警方报告他所知道的情况) 符合题意。故选D项。
