Winona Ryder was once one of Hollywood’ ...

    Winona Ryder was once one of Hollywood’ s biggest stars. During the 1990s, she received critical praise and box office success. And in 2000, she was awarded a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. But then it went wrong. In December 2001, she was arrested for shoplifting. She was caught leaving a Beverly Hills department store carrying thousands of dollars worth of clothes. Her sentence? 480 hours of community service in hospital. Afterwards, Winona quit acting for a few years. And she moved from los Angeles to San Francisco to get out of the spotlight. But now she’s on a comeback. She recently appeared in the award-winning Black Swan.

Bill Gates doesn’t seem like a bad boy. But on 29th April 1975 (just two weeks after founding Microsoft) he was arrested in Albuquerque, New Mexico. What for? Speeding and driving without a driver’s license. But Bill’s rap sheet doesn’t end there. In 1977 he was arrested again, this time for speeding, driving his Porsche through a stop sign road and, once again, driving without a license.

Bill has never commented on his wild past. But a Microsoft spokesperson said, “It’s well known that when Bill was young, he didn’t have a very good driving record.”

Can someone with a criminal record become president of the Unite States? They certainly can. And George W. Bush did. In 1976, the 30-year old Bush was drinking in a bar near his parents’ house. A few hours later, he decided to drive home. But on the way, a police officer pulled him over. Bush had been driving suspiciously slowly. The future president was arrested for drunk driving. Bush kept his arrest secret for 24 years. But it leaked to the press just before the 2000 presidential election (which he won). He admitted it was true and said he had learned his lesson that night.

1.What punishment was given to Winona Ryder after she was caught shoplifting?

A.She was forbidden acting for a few years.

B.She was put in prison for 480 hours.

C.She did community service for 480 hours.

D.She was forgiven for her outstanding acting skills.

2.What is the meaning of the underlined part “rap sheet”?

A.Criminal record. B.Careless behavior.

C.Sentence. D.Impolite behavior.

3.How did the police know George W. Bush was drunk driving?

A.The police were checking drunk driving and caught him by chance.

B.Bush was driving so slowly as to cause the police’ s suspicion.

C.Bush drove through a stop sign.

D.Bush drove in the wrong direction.

4.What is the passage mainly about?

A.Some famous people without morality.

B.Some famous people and their life stories.

C.Some interesting stories of famous people.

D.Some arrests of famous people.

 

1.C 2.A 3.B 4.D 【解析】 这是一篇记叙文。本文主要介绍了3位名人因为触犯了某些法律而被捕的故事。 1.细节理解题。根据第一段的She was caught leaving a Beverly Hills department store carrying thousands of dollars worth of clothes. Her sentence? 480 hours of community service in hospital.(她被发现携带价值数千美元的衣服离开贝弗利山的一家百货商店。她的判决?480小时在一家医院进行社区服务)可知,Winona Ryder盗窃的判决是在一家医院进行社区服务480小时。C. She did community service for 480 hours.(做社区服务480小时)符合以上说法,故选C项。 2.词句猜测题。根据第二段的Speeding and driving without a driver’s license. But Bill’ s rap sheet doesn’t end there. In 1977 he was arrested again, this time for speeding, driving his Porsche through a stop sign road and, once again, driving without a license.(超速和无证驾驶。但比尔的rap sheet还不止于此。在1977年,他再次被捕,这次是因为他驾驶者保时捷穿过了一条有“停止”标志的道路,且又是一次无证驾驶)根据句意,尤其是arrested again可推测,划线部分的的意思是“劣性/违法记录”。A. criminal record(犯罪记录)符合以上说法,故选A项。 3.细节理解题。根据最后一段的But on the way, a police officer pulled him over. Bush had been driving suspiciously slowly.(但在路上,一个警察让他靠边停车。布什开车慢得让人怀疑)可知,警察发现布什酒驾是因为他开车的速度慢得让人怀疑。B. Bush was driving so slowly as to cause the police’ s suspicion.(布什开车如此慢以至于让警察怀疑)符合以上说法,故选B项。 4.主旨大意题。根据第一段的In December 2001, she was arrested for shoplifting. (在2001年12月,她因入店盗窃被抓),第二段的But on 29th April 1975 (just two weeks after founding Microsoft) he was arrested in Albuquerque, New Mexico (但在1975年4月29日,他在新墨西哥州的阿尔伯克基被捕,时值微软成立两周)和最后一段的The future president was arrested for drunk driving. (这位未来的总统因酒驾被捕)可知,本文主要介绍了3位名人因为触犯了某些法律而被捕。D. Some arrests of famous people.(一些名人被捕)符合以上说法,故选D项。
