Mrs. Jones was over eighty, but she still drove her old car like a woman half her age. She loved driving very fast, and was proud of the fact 36 she had never, in her thirty-five years of driving, been punished 37 a driving offence (犯规，犯法).
Then one day she nearly 38 her record. A police car 39 her, and the policemen in it saw her 40 a red light without stopping. Of course, she was stopped. It seemed 41 that she would be punished.
42 Mrs. Jones came up to the judge, he looked at her seriously and said that she was 43 old to drive a car, and that the 44 why she had not stopped at the red 45 was most probably that her eyes had become weak 46 old age, so that she had simply not seen it.
When the judge had finished what he was 47 , Mrs. Jones opened the big handbag she was 48 and took out her sewing. Without saying a word, she 49 a needle（针） with a very small eye, and threaded it at her first attempt.
When she had 50 done this, she took the thread（n.线） out of the needle again and handed 51 the needle and the thread to the judge, saying, “Now it is your 52 . I suppose you drive a car, and that you are quite sure about your own eyesight.”

(答案→)C 解析：【小题1】C．fact后接that, 因为that 引导的是一个同位语从句。【小题2】D．for表示被惩罚的原因。【小题3】D．她始终保持着记录，但那天她差点儿丢了这个记录，因为她闯了红灯。【小题4】C．警车跟在她后面，用followed，而watched不妥，因为主语是警车，而不是人。ran after 也不对，警车在此之前没理由追赶她。【小题5】A．pass a red light，而用go 则要说go by。【小题6】C．用certain，不用sure，因为sure 常用人作主语。【小题7】D．此处came为瞬间动词，不能用while。【小题8】C．这是too…to结构，表示太…而不…【小题9】B．reason是说明某事某现象的理由，而cause 则指火灾、水灾或事故的起因。【小题10】A．红灯，用red light。【小题11】A．with此处相当于because of。【小题12】B．强调说话的内容用say，指说话的动作或讲某种语言用speak。【小题13】C．表示随身携带，不强调方向性，用carry，而bring则表示由远往近带来。【小题14】D．此处是挑了一根小眼的针，如用took, brought和pick都要加up或out。【小题15】C．从下文看，老太太显然是成功了。【小题16】A．指针和线两者，所以用both。【小题17】B．your turn表示该轮到你了。【小题18】D．为什么是针呢？因为后边有一句说她要thread it。【小题19】A．be dismissed被取消了。【小题20】D．remained表示过去是这样，现在仍保持这一状态。seemed，语气不够肯定。kept此处应用was kept。
