Question

【題目】閱讀表達(dá),閱讀下面的短文，根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容回答問題。

Once upon a time there lived a poor farmer called Smith. He didn’t like to share things with others. Smith had a friend who was famous for the wonderful apples he grew.

One day, his friend gave Smith a young apple tree and told him to take it home and planted. The farmer was pleased with the gift, but when he got home, he did not know where to plant. He thought and thought. Finally at night he planted the tree in his wood where no one could see it. But without sunlight and good soil, the tree soon died.

Later the friend asked the farmer why he had planted the tree in such a poor place.

“What’s the difference?” the farmer said angrily. ”If I had planted it near the road, strangers would have stolen the fruit. If I had planted it in one of my fields, my neighbors would have come at night and stolen some of the apples. If I had planted it near my house, my own children would have taken the fruit,” “Yes,” said the friend, “but at least someone could have enjoyed the fruit. Now you not only have got nothing, but also you have destroyed a good apple tree.”

試題分析：短文大意：自私的史密斯不喜歡跟別人分享東西。有一天，他的朋友給了他一棵蘋果樹讓他回家種上。史密斯擔(dān)心別人會(huì)偷走，想啊想啊，最后決定在晚上的時(shí)候把樹種在他的小樹林里，這樣別人就看不到了。由于沒有陽光，土質(zhì)也不好，小樹很快就死了。后來朋友問起緣由時(shí)，他反而非常生氣，振振有詞說出自己堂而皇之的理由。

【3】根據(jù)第二段中Finally at night he planted the tree in his wood可知最后他把樹栽在了他的樹林里，所以作答In his wood.

【4】根據(jù)第二段中But without sunlight and good soil, the tree soon died.可知沒有陽光和良好的土壤，樹很快就死了。所以作答B(yǎng)ecause there was no sunlight or good soil.

【5】根據(jù)最后一段中If I had planted it near my house, my own children would have taken the fruit可知“如果我把它栽在我家附近，我自己的孩子們會(huì)拿走水果”所以作答His own children would have taken the fruit.
