Reading comprehension. （共56分）( A )Matt has had such a terrible time this year that he should be in The Guinness (吉尼斯)Book of Records. When he tells his friends about his experiences, he cannot let them believe him.The trouble started one morning in January . That day when he wanted to drive his car to work as usual, he found it had gone, just outside his own house. And he hasn‟t seen it since then. In February Matt won $200,000 on the football polls (选票). But his joy didn‟t last long-he had forg otten to post the letter, so he didn‟t see a penny. After living two months without a car, he decided to get a new one, for he didn‟t want to waste any more time waiting for a bus. So in March he bought a new car. He spent more than he wished on the new ca r because it was not the right season for sales. He hadn‟t had it for more than a week when someone crashed (碰撞) into the back of it. That was not the end of his bad luck. One day in May Matt sat on a seat that had been painted only minutes before. And he was wearing his new trousers that had been bought only the week before.August has been the worst month so far this year. Matt spent three days of his holiday at airports because of strikes (罢工). When he arrived home, he discovered that someonehad broken into his house. His television and computer had disappeared.Matt is glad that it‟s the end of the year. He just hopes his luck will change in the new year.True or False (本篇答案必须用2B铅笔填涂。
