We certainly don’t spend our evenings staring at the walls. My wife enjoys cooking and painting and often attends evening classes in foreign languages. This is particularly useful as we always go abroad for our holidays. I collect stamps and I am always busy with my collection. Both of us enjoy listening to music and playing chess together.Sometimes there are power cuts and we have no electricity in the house. This does not worry us. We just light candles and carry on with what we were doing before. Our friends are lost — no televisions! So they don’t know what to do. On such evenings our house is very full as they all come to us. They all have a good time. Instead of sitting in silence in front of the television, everybody talks and plays games.

考查要点：本题主要考查学生对文章主旨、细节理解及推理判断的能力。
解题思路：
- 小题1需结合文章首段关键句，明确夫妻没有电视的原因；
- 小题2需通过细节定位，抓住两人共同的爱好；
- 小题3需关注断电时的情节，理解夫妻与朋友的不同反应；
- 小题4需归纳文章核心观点，判断作者写作意图。
破题关键：抓住文中反复出现的关键词（如“hobbies”“carry on”“have a good time”），结合对比手法（有无电视时的活动差异）。
小题1
关键句：It isn’t that our friends are all very busy. It is just that we haven’t got a TV set.
解析：
- 选项C直接对应文中“we haven’t got a TV set”，但需注意原文强调他们通过爱好充实生活，而非“没有电视”本身。
- 排除干扰项：
- A（经济原因）文中未提及；
- B（奇怪）是他人观点，非原因；
- D（断电时的应对）是结果，非原因。
小题2
关键句：My wife enjoys cooking and painting and often attends evening classes in foreign languages；I collect stamps...

- 选项B（旅游）需结合“foreign languages”与“go abroad for holidays”间接推断，体现共同爱好。
小题3
关键句：Our friends are lost — no televisions! So they don’t know what to do. On such evenings our house is very full as they all come to us.
解析：
- 断电时夫妻点燃蜡烛继续活动，朋友因无电视前来他们家，说明“有访客”（选项C）。
- 排除干扰项：
- A、B选项与文中“carry on with what we were doing”矛盾；
- D选项“外出买蜡烛”与“light candles”矛盾。
小题4
