　　我們終于找到了那個(gè)酒吧。我不必再打聽(tīng)了，因?yàn)樵诖白由嫌幸粋�(gè)巨大的霓虹燈用字母標(biāo)明星星酒吧。外面有一些鐵桌子，四周是塑料凳子。一些人百無(wú)聊賴地坐在周?chē)�，看著某個(gè)人從酒吧里拿出來(lái)的一個(gè)便攜式電視機(jī)。他們都穿著薄薄的夏裝或短袖衫;已經(jīng)很晚了，天氣還是很悶熱令人窒息。兩條很瘦的狗趴在桌子底下，伸著舌頭，幾個(gè)女子無(wú)精打采地用雜志扇著風(fēng)。

　　“他不在這里，”我很快地看了一下后說(shuō)道。電視機(jī)正在大聲地播出一個(gè)洗衣粉的廣告，坐在周?chē)�的人的眼睛都盯在那個(gè)自豪地展示丈夫的內(nèi)衣洗后有多么干凈的女人的身上。他們根本沒(méi)有注意到我們。

　　“你還期望什么呢?”弗格斯打著呵欠回答道，“現(xiàn)在才9：30，而他說(shuō)他會(huì)在9點(diǎn)鐘到這里來(lái)�，F(xiàn)在你應(yīng)該了解Graig了。他會(huì)在10點(diǎn)之后的某個(gè)時(shí)候來(lái)�！�

　　答案及解析

　　A【解析】推理判斷題。文章第一句中的at last暗示我們，作者和他的朋友找了好長(zhǎng)時(shí)間才找到了這個(gè)地方，故選項(xiàng)D是錯(cuò)誤的;通過(guò)窗戶上方的霓虹燈，他們知道已經(jīng)到了和Graig會(huì)見(jiàn)的地方。所以，選項(xiàng)B、C也是錯(cuò)誤的;第二句提到“我不用再問(wèn)路了”，所以可以推測(cè)出作者和他的朋友以前沒(méi)有到過(guò)那個(gè)酒吧。

　　What does the underlined word“stifling”(Paragraph l)probably mean?

　　A.Disappearing gradually.

　　B.Giving out into the air.

　　C.Hot and breathless.

　　D.Pleasing and comfortable.

　　參考答案：C

　　參考解析：C【解析】詞語(yǔ)釋義題。從文章第一段可知，從酒吧口人們的著裝和精神狀態(tài)，幾位女子用雜志無(wú)精打采地扇著風(fēng)，很瘦的兩條狗伸出舌頭趴在桌子下面，可推測(cè)出雖然已是晚上9：30了，但天氣仍然很悶熱。
