《大学英语3》第一阶段作业

一、阅读理解（共1道小题，共50.0分）

1. Mr. Perkin stood at the bus-stop and watched the cars go by. Many of the
cars were new Beta 400s, and most of them were yellow. Mr. Perkin always
wore the same clothes as other men, ate the same food as other people, and
did the same things after work, and at the end of the week. Mr. Perkin did
not like to be different.
The following week, Mr. Perkin bought a new, bright yellow Beta 400s.
He was satisfied with his new car, and drove to work in it the very next day.
He was even more satisfied with his new car, when he saw all the other Beta
400s, in front, behind, and on both sides of him.
Mr. Perkin parked his car in a big car-park near his office, and then
walked the rest of the day. But when he came back at five o'clock, there were
so many bright yellow Beta 400s in the car-park that he did not know which
car was his. He tried his key in some of the cars, but people passing by gave
him a look he didn't like. So he stopped.
Poor Mr. Perkin had to wait nearly two hours until his was the only
yellow Beta 400s in the car-park.
