2. D 推断题。第二段开头说他6点开门，报纸在这之前已送到，而且还可以catch the early trade。

　　3. A 推断题。Bill通常4点会重新开店，而那天作者的表已过4点，Bill还没有离开的意思，所以他非常惊讶。

　　4. C 细节题。A项中go off是爆发，产生很大声音；B项中drop off to sleep是不知不觉入睡；文章中倒数第二段最后一句话this is dead right 中dead是“非常，完全”的意思，可见，Bill的clock没错。

　　2016高考训练题。阅读理解阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。Researchers at the University of Kansas say that people can accurately judge 90 percent of a stranger’s personality simply by looking at the person’s shoes.

　　“Shoes convey a thin but useful piece of information about their wearers,” the authors wrote in the new study published in the Journal of Research in Personality. “Shoes serve a practical purpose, and also serve as nonverbal(非语言的) indications with symbolic messages. People tend to pay attention to the shoes they and others wear.”

　　Medical Daily notes that the details detected in the study include a person’s general age, sex, income, political affiliation(派别), and other personality characteristics, including someone’s emotional stability.

　　Lead researcher Omri Gillath said the judgments were based on the style, cost, color, and condition of someone’s shoes. In the study, 63 University of Kansas students looked at pictures showing 208 different pairs of shoes worn by the study’s participants. Volunteers in the study were photographed in their most commonly worn shoes, and then filled out a personality questionnaire.
