题文
阅读理解。 When I was at university I studied very hard. But a lot of my friends did very little work. Some did just
enough to pass exams. Others didn't do quite enough. Fred Baines was one of them. He spent more time drinking
in the Students' Union than working in the library.
Once, at the end of the term, we had to take an important test in chemistry. The test had a hundred
questions. Beside each question we had to write "True" or "False". While I was studying in my room the night
before the test, Fred was watching television. Fred usually worried a lot the night before a test. But on that night
he looked perfectly calm. Then he told me of his plan.
"It's very simple. There are a hundred questions and I have to get fifty correct to pass the test. I'll take a
coin into the examination room. I haven't studied a chemistry book for months, so I'll just toss the coin. (throw
the coin into the air.) That way, I'm sure I'll get half the questions right."
The next day, Fred came happily into the examination room. As he sat tossing a coin for half an hour he
marked down his answers. Then he left, half an hour before the rest of us.
The next day, he saw the chemistry professor at the gate.
"Oh good,"he said,"Have you got the results of the test?"
The professor looked at him and smiled.
"Ah, it's you, Baines. Just a minute."
Then he reached into his pocket and took out a coin. He threw it into the air, caught it in his hand and
looked at it.
"I'm terribly sorry, Baines," he said, "You failed!" 1. Fred Baines usually _____ exams.

考点
据考高分专家说，试题“阅读理解。 Whe.....”主要考查你对 [故事类阅读 ]考点的理解。
故事类阅读
故事类阅读：
文章一般描述的是某一件具体事情的发生发展或结局，有人物、时间、地点和事件。
命题往往从故事的情节、人物或事件的之间的关系、作者的态度及意图、故事前因和后果的推测等方面着手，考查学生对细节的辨认能力以及推理判断能力。
阅读这类材料时，同学们一定要根据主要情节掌握文章主旨大意，同时抓住每一个细节，设身处地根据文章内容揣摩作者的态度和意图，根据情节展开想象，即使是碰到深层理解题也可迎刃而解。
故事类阅读注意：
初中生接触到的阅读材料大都是故事类。
阅读故事类的材料，应该抓住人物线索、地点线索、时间线索和情节发展线索。
特别注意的是，以上线索往往是并存的。因为情节的发展总是涉及到人物的变化、时间的推移、场景的变换等。
而阅读材料后的阅读理解往往会围绕这些内容设计一些事实类的理解题。
凡事实类的理解题都可以从阅读材料的表层文字中找到答案。
在阅读故事类短文时，应理解文章的深层含义，也就是它的主题。在此需要注意的是，现在的阅读理解题在测试事实类的理解题的同时，往往有一道推理类理解测试题．
