【解析】

試題分析：這篇短文主要講述了湯姆在等車時(shí)，由于沒有地方坐，他便去咖啡館坐了一會，在這期間他遇到了他的工友邁克，兩人在咖啡館邊喝咖啡邊聊天。由于湯姆從鏡子里看表，最后耽誤了搭車的故事。

1.根據(jù)短文“Tom looked around but there was no place for him to sit.”的描述可知，因?yàn)闆]有地方坐，因此湯姆進(jìn)入了咖啡館。故應(yīng)選B。

2.結(jié)合短文“A few minutes ago it was twenty to twelve and now it’s half past eleven.”的敘述可以推知，當(dāng)時(shí)的時(shí)間是12點(diǎn)半。故選A。

3.根據(jù)短文“twenty to twelve”和“Half past twelve”的描述可以推知，鏡子里的時(shí)間是往回走的，因此鏡子里的時(shí)間是慢的。故應(yīng)選C。

4.根據(jù)短文的描述可知，A、B、D的敘述不符合原文內(nèi)容，結(jié)合短文最后一段最后一句“Since then Tom has never liked mirrors”的描述可知，湯姆再也不喜歡鏡子了。故應(yīng)選C。

5.根據(jù)短文主要講述的是在鏡子里看錯(cuò)表的故事。結(jié)合選項(xiàng)可知，最能概括文章大意的是“鏡子里的鐘表”，故應(yīng)選D

考點(diǎn)：日常生活類短文閱讀。

考點(diǎn)分析： 考點(diǎn)1：人物傳記/故事閱讀類

人物傳記故事類閱讀理解：

    閱讀能力是中學(xué)生學(xué)習(xí)英語應(yīng)具備的一種基本能力。學(xué)習(xí)英語的一個(gè)重要目的在于獲取信息。通過閱讀這一重要手段，我們可以大量地獲取知識，拓展知識面，還可以增強(qiáng)語感，培養(yǎng)敏捷的思維能力。

閱讀理解也是各地中考試題的必考題型之一，在中考試題中占有較大比例，主要考查學(xué)生通過文字獲取信息的能力。在中考中，閱讀的篇數(shù)一般是三到四篇，選材范圍越來越廣，除故事、幽默、人物軼事外，科普性文章也多了起來。體裁也趨于多樣化，有記敘文、說明文、應(yīng)用文等。還要求學(xué)生能理解及解釋圖表多提供的簡單信息等。三四篇短文中有的難度跨度較大，以便拉開檔次，體現(xiàn)選拔功能。并且擴(kuò)大了選材范圍，主要考查考生閱讀所給材料，理解其中詞語、句子或片段含義的能力。有時(shí)涉及對全文意思和篇章結(jié)構(gòu)的理解，對一些問題作出推理和判斷。閱讀理解的考核中包括了對詞匯、語法等語言知識的考查，要求學(xué)生具備一定的背景知識、各種常識、科普知識和一定的分析及邏輯推理能力；要求學(xué)生具有歸納段落大意、中心思想的能力。測試的方向由時(shí)間、地點(diǎn)、身份、人物等一些細(xì)節(jié)問題，改為測試對全文整體意義的理解程度；由考查短文的表層現(xiàn)象改為考對文章深層含義的理解和邏輯推斷能力。另外，任務(wù)型閱讀形式靈活多樣，內(nèi)容豐富多彩，聯(lián)系實(shí)際，易考查學(xué)生的靈活運(yùn)用能力和對語言的綜合運(yùn)用能力。在中考中占30-40分。
