(2013·高考福建卷，A)When I was 12，all I wanted was a signet (图章) ring.They were the “in” thing and it seemed every girl except me had one.On my 13th birthday，my Mum gave me a signet ring with my initials(姓名首字母) carved into it.I was in heaven.
What made it even more special was that it was about the only thing that wasn’t being “replaced”．We’d been burnt out in fires that swept through our area earlier that year and had lost everything—so most of the “new” stuff (东西) we got was really just to replace what we’d lost.But not my ring.My ring was new.
Then，only one month later，I lost it.I took it off before bed and it was missing in the morning.I was sad and searched everywhere for it.But it seemed to have disappeared.Eventually，I gave up and stopped looking for it.And two years later，we sold the house and moved away.
Years passed，and a couple of moves later，I was visiting my parents’ when Mum told me that she had something for me.It wasn’t my birthday，nor was it Easter or Christmas or any other gift­giving occasion.Mum noticed my questioning look.“You’ll recognize this one，”she said，smiling.
Then she handed me a small ring box.I took it from her and opened it to find my beautiful signet ring inside.
The family who had bought our house 13 years earlier had recently decided to do some redecorations，which included replacing the carpets.When they pulled the carpet up in my old bedroom，they found the ring.As it had my initials carved into it，they realized who owned the ring.They’d had it professionally cleaned up by a jeweler before sending it to my mother.
And it still fits me.
【小题1】The underlined word “in” in the first paragraph probably means“ ”．A．fashionable B．availableC．practical D．renewable【小题2】When she got the ring back，the writer was about .A．13 years old B．15 years old C．26 years old D．28 years old【小题3】Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A．The writer’s family moved several times.B．The writer never stopped looking for her ring.C．The writer’s ring was cleaned up by the new house owner.D．The writer lost her ring in the morning when she took it off.【小题4】What would be the best title for the passage?A．My New RingB．Lost and Found C．Lost and Replaced D．An Expensive RingA

(答案→)A 解析：本文为一篇记叙文，记叙了作者自己所珍爱的一枚“图章戒指”失而复得的故事。【小题1】解析：选A。词义猜测题。根据第一句“当我12岁的时候，我想要一枚图章戒指”，及画线词后面阐述的it seemed every girl except me had one“除了我，几乎每个女孩都有一枚这样的戒指”，可推断in的意思为fashionable“流行的，时髦的”，只有如此才能说明作者期望拥有一枚这样的戒指。选项中其他词的含义为：available有效的，可得到的，可利用的，空闲的；practical实用的；renewable可再生的，可更新的，可继续的。【小题2】解析：选D。细节理解题。根据文章第一段可知“在我13岁生日的时候，妈妈给了我一枚这样的戒指作为生日礼物”，后来这枚戒指丢了；再根据第三段的最后“两年后我们卖掉了房子”和倒数第二段中“13年前买我们房子的那家人对房子进行装修，换地毯时发现了我丢失的戒指”，由此可计算出作者的戒指失而复得的时间为作者28岁时。【小题3】解析：选A。细节理解题。结合文章第四段Years passed，and a couple of moves later...可知“作者一家搬了好几次家”，因此选项A正确。由第三段知“作者在晚上睡觉前摘下了戒指，第二天早晨就找不到了”，因此选项D错误。由文章倒数第二段最后一句可知C项错误。由第三段倒数第二句可知B项错误。【小题4】解析：选B。主旨大意题。本文以一枚“图章戒指”为线索，记叙了作者这枚戒指失而复得的过程，因此选项B是文章的中心。最大干扰项是D项An Expensive Ring“一枚昂贵的戒指”，这枚戒指仅仅是作者的妈妈送给她的生日礼物，原文并没有说这枚戒指是昂贵的，因此选项D错误。
