Question

An old farmer lived with his little grandson. Every day the farmer got up early to read books.

One day the grandson asked, “Grandpa! I want to read books just like you, but I don’t understand them. What are the advantages of reading?” The grandfather said, “Take this little basket to the river and bring me back a basket of water.” The boy did so, but all the water leaked out before he got back to the house. The grandfather laughed and said, “ You’ll have to walk faster next time.”

This time the boy ran faster, but again the basket was empty before he returned home. The boy said, “ See Grandpa, it’s useless!”

“So you think it is useless?” the old man said. “ Look at the basket.”

The boy looked at the basket and for the first time he realized that the basket was different. It was clean, inside and out.

“That’s what happens when you read books. You might not understand or remember everything, but when you read them, you will be changed, inside and out.”

1.聯(lián)系上下文可知這個(gè)短語(yǔ)是漏出的意思，故選C。

2.通過(guò)閱讀短文可知這是一個(gè)有關(guān)讀書(shū)的短文，故選D，寫(xiě)給那些不喜歡讀書(shū)的孩子們。

3.根據(jù)The boy looked at the basket and for the first time he realized that the basket was different. It was clean, inside and out.可知選B。

4.根據(jù)but when you read them, you will be changed, inside and out.”可知選A，這個(gè)老農(nóng)可能通過(guò)讀書(shū)改變了自己。

考點(diǎn)：關(guān)于讀書(shū)的記述文
