Question

The clock struck eleven at night. The whole house was quiet. Everyone was in bed except me. Under the strong light, I looked sadly before a huge pile of troublesome  stuff  they call “books”.

I was going to have my examination the next day. "When can I go to bed?" I asked myself. I didn’t answer, in fact I dared not.

    The clock struck 12."Oh, dear!" I cried, "ten more books to read before I can go to bed!” We pupils are the most wretched creatures in the world. Dad does not agree with me on this. He did not have to work so hard when he was a boy.”

    The clock struck one. I was quite hopeless now. I forgot all I had learnt. I was too tired to go on. I did the only thing I could. I prayed, “Oh, God, Please help me pass the exam tomorrow. I do promise to work hard afterwards, Amen.” My eyes were heavy, so heavy that I could hardly open them. A few minutes later, with my head on the desk, I fell asleep.

【解析】

試題分析：你有過這樣的經(jīng)歷嗎？平時只顧著玩了，忽然就要考試了。在考試前一晚挑燈夜戰(zhàn)希望能通過考試。這種痛苦只有自己才能感受得到。

1.細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)Everyone was in bed except me. （所有的人除了我都在床上了。）當作者在復(fù)習功課時，屋子里的其他人在睡覺。選A。

2.細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)I do promise to work hard afterwards可知，臨考試前復(fù)習功課幫不上忙，因為他以前沒用功。他祈禱讓他通過考試，以后會努力學習。 所以選D。

3.主旨大意題。 根據(jù)描述可知，時間發(fā)生在考試前，作者想通過挑燈夜戰(zhàn)達到通過考試的目的。所以選A（考試前一晚）。最形象貼切。
