It happened one night that the father, the mother and the young student were sitting at supper.They had in front of them only two chickens.Just as they were about to begin eating, the father said, "My boy, I have spent a lot of money on you to send you to Oxford.Now I want to know what you have learned."The son smiled and said, "Father, I have studied a science which can prove(證明) that these two chickens on the plate are really three chickens.""Well," said the father, "This is something I would like very much to know.""There are two chickens on the plate, "said the student.He took one of the chickens in his hand and said, "Here is one more ; and one and two makes three.So here are three chickens."Then the father took one of the chickens to himself, gave the other to his wife, and said, "I will have one of the chickens myself, your mother shall have another, and you can have the third for your supper and nothing else."The father kept his word and so the student went without his supper.

試題分析:這篇短文主要介紹了一對(duì)父子在晚餐時(shí)的小故事,父親用自己的機(jī)智拆穿了兒子的小把戲,最終弄得兒子晚餐無飯可吃了。

1.根據(jù)He loved the child so much that he sent him to Oxford university for two or three years.可知選C。

2.根據(jù)Just as they were about to begin eating, the father said, "My boy, I have spent a lot of money on you to send you to Oxford.Now I want to know what you have learned."可知選C。

3.根據(jù)"The son smiled and said, "Father, I have studied a science which can prove(證明) that these two chickens on the plate are really three chickens."可知選C。

4.根據(jù)短文最后這個(gè)學(xué)生沒有吃到自己的晚餐,證明了他的父親更聰明。故選D。

5.根據(jù)and so the student went without his supper.及前文桌子上只有兩只雞的描述,可知這個(gè)學(xué)生晚餐沒有什么可吃的了。故選A。

考點(diǎn):關(guān)于一對(duì)父子的記述文

點(diǎn)評(píng):本文中長句較多,一時(shí)很難讀懂句子含義,注意多讀幾遍,不要強(qiáng)求非得理解一詞一句的含義,能把握文章大意就行。然后帶著問題閱讀短文,一般就能順利找出答題依據(jù)。對(duì)于不能直接找到根據(jù)的問題注意聯(lián)系上下文,根據(jù)短文中心總結(jié)出正確答案。
