15.I was very disappointed not to be able to go to the jazz concert last Friday.The advertisement in the paper said that you could buy tickets at the theatre box in Richland Hills any day between 10:00and 4:00.Since I work from 9:00to 5:30,the only time I could go to the theatre was during my 45-minute lunch break.Unfortunately,the theatre is on the other side of the town,and the bus service between my office and Richland Hills is not very good.But if you are lucky,you can make the round trip in 45minutes.Last Monday,I stood at the bus stop for fifteen minutes waiting for the bus.By the time I saw one come around the corner,there was not enough time left to make the trip.So I gave up and went back to the office.The same thing happened on Tuesday,and again the next day.On Thursday,my luck changed.I got on a Bus right away and arrived at the theatre in exactly twenty minutes.When I got there,however,I found a long line of people at the office.I heard one man say he had been waiting in line for over an hour.Realizing I would not have enough time to wait in line,I caught the next bus and headed back across the town.By Friday I realized my only hope was to make the trip by taxi,it was expensive,but I felt it would be worth it to hear the concert.The trip by taxi only took 10minutes,but it felt like an hour to me.When I got to the theatre,I was relieved to see that nobody was waiting in line.The reason,however,I quickly discovered,was that they had already sold all the tickets.

分析 本文是一篇記敘文.文章講述了我為買一張音樂會的票所付出的努力.由于上班的原因我只能在午飯的時間去買票,可去那個城市的班車很不及時,我等了好幾天都沒有趕上合適的班車;有一次趕上了,到達那里的時候,排隊等候的人很多,無奈我只好返回.最后,我打車去那里,到達那里我發(fā)現(xiàn)沒有人排隊,我很高興.但后來我發(fā)現(xiàn)票已經(jīng)賣完了.
解答 48:D.細節(jié)理解.根據(jù)文章第一段中的The advertisement(廣告) in the paper said that you could buy tickets at the theatre box in Richland Hills any day between 10:00 and 4:00.可知,那人是通過報紙上的廣告得知的音樂會買票的信息的.故選D.
49.B.細節(jié)題,根據(jù)On Thursday,my luck changed.I got on a Bus right away and arrived at the theatre in exactly twenty minutes可知周四去了一次,By Friday I realized my only hope was to make the trip by taxi,it was expensive,….When I got to the theatre,I was relieved to see that nobody was waiting in line周五去了一次,可知總共去了兩次.
50:C.細節(jié)理解.根據(jù)文章中的On Thursday,my luck changed.I got on a bus right away and arrived at the theatre in exactly twenty minutes.可知,我正好用了20分鐘到達劇院.故選C.

52:C.主旨題.根據(jù)文章的整體內(nèi)容可知,由于上班的原因我只能在午飯的時間去買票,可去那個城市的班車很不及時,我等了好幾天都沒有趕上合適的班車;有一次趕上了,到達那里的時候,排隊等候的人很多,無奈我只好返回.最后,我打車去那里,到達那里我發(fā)現(xiàn)沒有人排隊,我很高興.但后來我發(fā)現(xiàn)票已經(jīng)賣完了.所以作者寫這篇文章是為了告訴讀者他買票所付出的努力.故選C.
