1.1.How old is Robin?
A He is ten years old.
B He is eleven years old.
C He is twelve years old.
D He is thirteen years old.
解析:选B。B 细节理解题。文章第一句“Robin is an 11-year-old boy from Finland.”直接说明Robin是一个11岁的男孩。A“十岁”、C“十二岁”、D“十三岁”都与原文中的“11-year-old”不符。故选B。
2.2.What will Robin do in 2027?
A Win the F1 world title.
B Stop all his karting races.
C Join his father’s racing team.
D Start training with the team.
解析:选D。D 细节理解题。文章第二段第一句“Robin will keep racing in karting and start team training in 2027.”明确说Robin将在2027年开始参加车队训练。A说赢得F1世界冠军,那是他父亲Kimi在2007年做到的事情;B说停止所有卡丁车比赛,但原文说他会继续参加卡丁车比赛;C说加入父亲的赛车队,原文没有这个信息。故选D。
3.3.What does “calm” mean in the passage?
A 沉着的
B 兴奋的
C 害羞的
D 紧张的
解析:选A。A 词义猜测题。根据上文“Robin usually stays cool in races.”以及后文“He thinks well, so he drives very well.”可以推断,Robin在比赛中保持冷静、思考清楚,所以“calm”意思是“沉着的、冷静的”。B“兴奋的”、C“害羞的”、D“紧张的”都与“stays cool”和“thinks well”所表达的冷静、镇定不符。故选A。
4.4. What is the passage mainly about?
A A famous racing star.
B Robin’s happy family life.
C A young boy’s racing life.
D Red Bull’s team rules.
解析:选C。C 主旨大意题。全文围绕11岁男孩Robin展开,介绍了他来自芬兰、加入红牛青年赛车队、2027年将继续卡丁车比赛并开始车队训练,以及他在比赛中的表现,因此主要内容是“一个年轻男孩的赛车生活”。A“一位著名的赛车明星”如果指Kimi,只是文章的背景信息,不是全文中心;B“Robin幸福的家庭生活”只在文中提到父亲为他高兴,不是主要内容;D“红牛车队规则”文中没有提到。故选C。
