Hurry up, Mary.” When the little girl gave the rich man her mother’s message, he said, “It was no mistake. I had the silver pieces put into the smallest bread for you as a prize.

Answer 1

【答案】

【1】She stood quietly in distance.

【2】 but size

【3】Because he wanted to give them to Mary as a prize.

【4】She was very honest.

【5】(We should) Always be satisfied, peaceable and thankful (in our lives).

【6】當那些行為惡劣的孩子們離開時，瑪麗拿起了最小的一塊，那是籃子里僅剩的一塊。

【解析】

本文主要講述的是Mary在與別的孩子一起分面包時，總是靜靜地站在遠處，等別人拿走了，她拿最小的那一個。最后卻在最小的面包里面得到銀幣，作為她行為的獎勵。所以說，在我們的人生當中，我們應該學會滿足的，平和的，感激的對待生活。

【1】在句子Mary, a poorly - dressed girl, did not fight with the other children, 72.①________ stood quietly in distance可知 She stood quietly in distance表明當時Mary的行為。故用She stood quietly in distance。

【2】由Mary, a poorly - dressed girl, did not fight with the other children可知，她不和別的孩子爭斗，stood quietly in distance卻靜靜地站在遠處。中間轉折。故填but。由Mary took the smallest piece可知她拿的是最小的。所以72出指是尺寸大小。故填size。

【3】由后文廚師所講的話It was no mistake. I had the silver pieces put into the smallest bread for you as a prize沒有弄錯。我把銀幣放入最小的面包給你作為獎勵可知he wanted to give them to Mary as a prize他想把它們給Mary作為獎勵。故答Because he wanted to give them to Mary as a prize。

【4】由Her mother was very worried, and said, “Take the money back to the cook at once. The silver must have fallen into the dough (面團) by accident. Hurry up, Mary.”可知她母親看到面包的錢過后非常的焦慮，并且讓她女兒盡快的把那些銀幣還給廚師�？芍�她的母親非常的誠實。故答She was very honest。

【5】聯系上下文可知，其余的孩子都哄搶面包，只有瑪麗最后一個有禮貌的拿她的那份。其中when引導時間狀語從句，再是which在句中做非限制性定語從句補充修飾the smallest piece。

【6】由原文最后一句廚師所講的話點題Always be as satisfied, peaceable and thankful as you now are。本文主旨大意。故答(We should) Always be satisfied, peaceable and thankful (in our lives)。
