Question

Some years went by. Then Father Boone called the family together. “Pack your things,” he told them. “We are leaving here. Our farmland isn't good to live on. We can buy rich, cheap land in he southwest.”

Sixteen-year-old Daniel was happy. “I'm glad we are going,” he said. “I feel crowded here. There are too many houses and too many people.” Father Boone made ready for the journey. He pushed out the big wagon (馬車) and tied two horses to it. Mother Boone packed clothes, dishes, pots and pans. She would make food for the family along the way. The family said goodbye to the neighbors and to their old home, and started.

Mother, the girls, and the little children rode in the wagon. Father and the boys took turns riding the horses. Sometimes all of the Boones walked so that the horses could rest.

Father and the boys had guns to kill birds and small animals for food along the way. The

Boones traveled across Pennsylvania. At last the family came to the green Yadkin Valley in North

Carolina. There were a few houses there already, but the farmland was much broader than that in

Pennsylvania.

Father Boone said, “This is good farmland. We will stop here.”

【解析】

試題分析：這篇短文講述的是Boone一家，他們家原來(lái)的農(nóng)田不好了，所以要搬到新的地方去。他們一家人收拾好行李，開(kāi)始了行程。最后終于到了新的家，那里早已有了一些房子，而且那里的農(nóng)田比原來(lái)的要更好，他們決定生活在那里。

1.細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文的第一段中“Pack your things,” he told them. “We are leaving here. Our farmland isn't good to live on. We can buy rich, cheap land in the southwest.可知，Boone把家人召集起來(lái)說(shuō)：收拾行李，我們要離開(kāi)這里，我們的農(nóng)田不好了，我們可以在西南部買到更肥沃、便宜的土地。根據(jù)這里我們知道選B。

2.細(xì)節(jié)理解題。在短文的第三段中講道，母親、女孩們還有孩子都坐馬車，父親和男孩們輪流騎馬，有時(shí)候他們家人都走路，這樣可以讓馬休息一下。由此可知，這一段作者主要告訴我們Boone一家人是怎樣搬家走的。故應(yīng)該選D。

3.細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文第三段中的最后一句話Sometimes all of the Boones walked so that the horses could rest.可知，在搬家的路上，有時(shí)候Boone一家人都會(huì)走路，這樣可以讓馬休息一下。故選C。

4.詞義猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)這個(gè)劃線的詞所在的句子There were a few houses there already, but the farmland was much broader than that in Pennsylvania.可知，Boone一家到達(dá)了green Yadkin Valley in North Carolina，那里已經(jīng)有了一些房子，但那里的農(nóng)田要比原來(lái)的更寬。broad寬廣的，它的同義詞是wide。故選A。

5.推理判斷題。根據(jù)短文的中At last the family came to the green Yadkin Valley in North Carolina可知A選項(xiàng)的表述是正確的；根據(jù)短文最后一段中This is good farmland.可知，Boone一家人的新家的農(nóng)田是好的，故B的表述也是正確的；根據(jù)There were a few houses there already可知D選項(xiàng)的表述也是正確的。而根據(jù)短文第三段的描述以及最后一段中The Boones traveled across Pennsylvania.可知，Boone的新家離他們?cè)瓉?lái)的家是很遠(yuǎn)的。故C不對(duì)。

考點(diǎn)：故事類短文閱讀。
