Frank Smithson woke up and got up to turn off the alarm clock(闹钟). “Oh no!” he thought to himself. “Another day at that office; a boss (老板) who shouts at me all the time.”
As Frank went downstairs, his eyes fell on a large brown envelope (信封) by the door. He was very happy when he opened it and read the letter inside. “Bigwoods Football Pools (足球赌博公司) would like to congratulate you. You have won half a million pounds（英镑）.”
Frank suddenly came to life. The cigarette fell from his lips (唇) as he let out a shout that could be heard halfway down the street.
At 11:30 Frank arrived at work. “Please explain why you're so late,” his boss said. “Go and jump in the lake,” said Frank. “I've just come into a little money so this is good-bye. Find yourself someone else to shout at.”
That evening Frank was smoking a very expensive Havana cigar (雪茄) when a knock was heard on the door. He rushed to the door. Outside were two men, neatly dressed in grey suits. “Mr. Smithson,” one of them said, “we're from Bigwoods Pools. I'm afraid there's been a terrible mistake…”

(答案→)A 解析：这篇短文为我们讲述了一个关于Frank的故事。Frank在公司里总是挨老板的骂。有一天他收到了一个足球赌博公司的信，信上说他中了很多钱。Frank很高兴，在老板又要责骂他的时候，他毫不犹豫的进行了反击。但是那天晚上两个人来找Frank，说那个足球赌博公司可能寄错了信。【小题1】推理判读题。根据文章的第一句话Frank Smithson woke up and got up to turn off the alarm clock，Frank醒来关掉闹钟，由此我们可以推断Frank是一个比较懒惰的人。B选项说他是一个幸运的人，由故事的结尾我们可以知道他并不幸运；C选项说他赚了很多钱，由故事的结尾我们也可以知道这不是真的；D选项说他和老板相处的好，由文章的意思我们知道这是不对的。故选A。【小题2】推理判读题。根据文章的最后when a knock was heard on the door. He rushed to the door.当Frank听到敲门声的时候他冲到了门边，我们可以推断出Frank心情很激动，所以他一定是认为他中了很多钱，现在是送钱的人来了。故选B。【小题3】推理判读题。当听到…there's been a terrible mistake…,有一个可怕的错误的时候，Frank感觉怎样。我们首先推断一下这个错误是什么，之前我们知道Frank以为自己中了奖，但现在这个足球赌博公司的人却说他们犯了一个错误，那么这个错误肯定跟他的中奖有关，既然错了，那么也就是说其实Frank并没有中奖，所以这个时候Frank应该是感到很失望，故选A。
