Question

    A driver stopped his car on a street side to have a rest. As he lay down in the seat and closed his eyes, a man came up and knocked at the window to ask the time. The driver opened his eyes and looked at his watch. “It’s 8 am,” he said. Then he went to sleep again.

But soon he woke up because a second person was knocking at the window. “Sir, do you have the time?” he asked. The driver looked at his watch again, and told the man it was 8:30 am.

At this rate (照此下去) he could not have a good rest, so he wrote a short note and put it up on the window for all to see. It said, “I don’t have the time.” Again the man lay down in the seat for his sleep. A few minutes later, a third   person came along and began knocking at the window. “Hey, Sir.” he said, “It’s a quarter to nine.”

【解析】

文章大意：文章主要讲的是一个司机把车停在路边休息，陆续有人向他询问时间，影响他休息。他就在车窗上贴了一张便条：我不知道时间。几分钟后，又有人敲窗，告诉他时间。

1.细节理解题。根据文章第一段第一行“A driver stopped his car on a street side to have a rest”“一个司机把车停在路边休息”，故选C。

2.细节理解题。根据第二段第一行“But soon he woke up because a second person was knocking at the window”“但很快他就醒了，因为第二个人在敲窗户”和第二段最后一行“The driver looked at his watch again, and told the man it was 8:30 am”“司机又看了看表，告诉那人现在是上午8:30”可知，他被第二个人叫醒是在半小时后，故选B。

3.细节理解题。根据文章倒数第一、二行“A few minutes later, a third person came along and began knocking at the window. “Hey, Sir.” he said, “It’s a quarter to nine”“几分钟后，第三个人走过来开始敲窗户。“嘿，先生，”他说，“现在八点四十五”，故选A。

4.细节理解题。文章倒数第一、二行“A few minutes later, a third person came along and began knocking at the window. “Hey, Sir.” he said, “It’s a quarter to nine”“几分钟后，第三个人走过来开始敲窗户。“嘿，先生，”他说，“现在八点四十五”，可知，第三个人敲窗户告诉他时间，故选B。

5.细节理解题。通读全文可知，文章没有介绍司机昨晚睡得怎么样，A说法是错误的；前两个人是问司机几点了，不是喜欢司机的手表，B说法是错误的；由文章最后一段可知，司机在窗户上贴了不知道时间，第三个人告诉了司机时间，可知，第三个人很善良友善，C说法是正确的，故选C。
