Bournemouth in Dorset has always been my favourite seaside town.When I was growing up，Mum and Dad didn't have much money，but they'd saved enough for a few days in Bournemouth.I was four years old at the time.I don't actually remember much about the trip，apart from being devastated when we had to leave.Mum said I fell in love with the place and insisted on waving goodbye to the sea when it was time to go.So I grew up believing Bournemouth was a wonderful place. Forty years on，my wife and I returned for a week's break.I was nervous，wondering if I'd be able to bring back that delight I'd felt as a child.I needn't have worried.We had a fantastic time.It helped that the British weather had decided to provide us with high temperatures and plenty of sun.But it was Bournemouth that kept me spellbound，making me feel like a child again. Bournemouth and its neighbour，Boscombe，are always busy，alive with chatter，music and other lively sounds.But as we stepped into Boscombe Chine Gardens，all the noise faded away.A sense of peace spread through us as we meandered along the paths，delighting in the squirrels climbing up and down the trees and the bright colours of the pretty plants. One morning，we made a short trip to Poole Quay and took the ferry to Brownsea Island.Owned by the National Trust，it's a feast for the eyes，from its mock Tudor entrance，to the many peacocks walking around，to the magnificent views of the sun sparkling on the shining waters and boats bobbing up and down，seen from the island's highest point. Before we knew it，it was time to return home—but not before waving goodbye to the sea.（1）Which of the following best explains "devastated" underlined in Paragraph 1？ ____ A．Sorrowful.B．Surprised.C．Thrilled.D．Desperate.（2）What made the author feel nervous？ ____ A．The fear of losing childhood memories.B．The adjustment to the new circumstances.C．The uncertainty of recalling childhood delight.D．The exposure to high temperatures and sunshine.（3）what does the author think about Boscombe Chine Gardens？ ____ A．It boasts seaside views.B．It belongs to wild animals.C．It is free of the town's noise.D．It reminds him of his childhood.（4）What is the text mainly about？ ____ A．Farewell to Bournemouth.B．Working in a wonderful place.C．A childhood unforgettable story.D．Revisiting a childhood favourite.

题目解答
答案
（1）词句猜测题。根据第一段中Mum said I fell in love with the place and insisted on waving goodbye to the sea when it was time to go.So I grew up believing Bournemouth was a wonderful place.（妈妈说我爱上了这个地方，每次要走的时候都坚持要向大海挥手告别。）可以推断出，我对这个地方非常不舍，离开的时候都很难过。由此可知划线词词义为"难过的"，A．Sorrowful悲伤的；B．Surprised吃惊的；C．Thrilled兴奋的；D．Desperate绝望的。故选A。
（2）细节理解题。根据第二段中I was nervous，wondering if I'd be able to bring back that delight I'd felt as a child.（很紧张，不知道自己是否能找回儿时的快乐。）可知，因为我害怕我在这趟旅行中找不到童年时候在那里的快乐，所以我有点紧张。故选C。
（3）细节理解题。根据第三段中But as we stepped into Boscombe Chine Gardens，all the noise faded away.A sense of peace spread through us as we meandered along the paths，delighting in the squirrels climbing up and down the trees and the bright colours of the pretty plants.（但当我们步入Boscombe Chine Gardens时，所有的噪音都消失了。当我们沿着小路漫步时，一种平静的感觉传遍了我们的全身，松鼠在树上爬上爬下，美丽的植物颜色鲜艳，我们都很高兴。）可知，当我们踏入Boscombe Chine Gardens，感觉很安静，内心变得很平和。故选C。
（4）主旨大意题。文章第一段第一句提到Bournemouth in Dorset has always been my favourite seaside town.（多塞特郡的伯恩茅斯一直是我最喜欢的海滨小镇。）以及第二段最后一句提到But it was Bournemouth that kept me spellbound，making me feel like a child again.（但伯恩茅斯让我着迷，让我觉得自己又回到了童年。）同时在第三、四段中都提到了作者在伯恩茅斯小镇上度假时开心的状态，由此判断本文讲述了作者和妻子重游了自己童年很喜欢的地方，故选D。
