33．（7分）Answer the question. （根据短文内容，回答下列问题）
The villas （别墅） were very nice. Beautiful houses，wonderful lawns （草坪）， and nice gardens. This was the kind of housing estate where John Wood preferred to work.
It was just before eleven o'clock at night. After John drove around for the fifth time， he thought that he had found the right house﹣No 4. There was no light and the garage（车库） door was open. John parked his car in the next street and then came into the garage.
No one would think that a well﹣dressed gentleman with a white silk scarf and gloves， was really an excellent thief.
After looking around the house for a while， John got down to work. He searched every room， and before long， his hands were full. He had two necklaces， some gold rings and a purse with a lot of money. He put all the things in his pocket.
Then he found a small wall safe in the bedroom. John couldn't wait to take the valuable things from the safe and put them into his own pocket! But the thief met a problem： he couldn't open the safe.
John wiped（擦） a few drops of sweat from his forehead， took off his gloves， and placed them on a chair. Again and again， and finally， he opened the safe. He saw something shining﹣a huge diamond.
At that time， John heard someone opening the front door. It was the owner of the house. John put the diamond in his pocket， ran to the window， climbed out of the house and drove away in the dark.
Ten minutes later， the police arrived. After searching the house， the police found an important piece of evidence （证据） that could easily tell who was the thief.
Do you know what the piece of evidence was？
（1）When did the story happen？
At about eleven o'clock at night.
（2）Why did John think House No.4 is the right one？
Because there was no light in the house and the garage door was open.
（3）Where did John put all the things that he had stolen？
In his pocket.
（4）How did John feel when he saw the wall safe？
Excited/He felt excited/happy.
（5）John was very good at stealing things， wasn't he？
Yes，he was.
（6）Did the police think they were able to catch the thief？ Give reason（s）.
Yes，they did. Because there must be John Wood's finger marks on the wall safe as he took off his gloves to open it.
【分析】本文讲述了一位小偷入室偷盗的过程，以及慌乱中留下了作案证据。
【解答】（1）At about eleven o'clock at night.细节理解题．根据短文信息 It was just before eleven o'clock at night. After John drove around for the fifth time.可知，句中it就是指代的时间；所以时间发生的时间是晚上11点左右。故答案为：At about eleven o'clock at night.

33．（7分）Answer the question. （根据短文内容，回答下列问题）
The villas （别墅） were very nice. Beautiful houses，wonderful lawns （草坪）， and nice gardens. This was the kind of housing estate where John Wood preferred to work.
It was just before eleven o'clock at night. After John drove around for the fifth time， he thought that he had found the right house﹣No 4. There was no light and the garage（车库） door was open. John parked his car in the next street and then came into the garage.
No one would think that a well﹣dressed gentleman with a white silk scarf and gloves， was really an excellent thief.
After looking around the house for a while， John got down to work. He searched every room， and before long， his hands were full. He had two necklaces， some gold rings and a purse with a lot of money. He put all the things in his pocket.
Then he found a small wall safe in the bedroom. John couldn't wait to take the valuable things from the safe and put them into his own pocket! But the thief met a problem： he couldn't open the safe.
John wiped（擦） a few drops of sweat from his forehead， took off his gloves， and placed them on a chair. Again and again， and finally， he opened the safe. He saw something shining﹣a huge diamond.
At that time， John heard someone opening the front door. It was the owner of the house. John put the diamond in his pocket， ran to the window， climbed out of the house and drove away in the dark.
Ten minutes later， the police arrived. After searching the house， the police found an important piece of evidence （证据） that could easily tell who was the thief.
Do you know what the piece of evidence was？
（1）When did the story happen？
At about eleven o'clock at night.
（2）Why did John think House No.4 is the right one？
Because there was no light in the house and the garage door was open.
（3）Where did John put all the things that he had stolen？
In his pocket.
（4）How did John feel when he saw the wall safe？
Excited/He felt excited/happy.
（5）John was very good at stealing things， wasn't he？
Yes，he was.
（6）Did the police think they were able to catch the thief？ Give reason（s）.
Yes，they did. Because there must be John Wood's finger marks on the wall safe as he took off his gloves to open it.
