Passage 3
Uncle Li and Uncle Wang are good friends. They live next to each other and their farms are both at the foot of the mountain. So they can help each other. But neither of them likes to use his head. They"re both poor though they work hard. Most villagers have built new houses, but they still live in the low and broken houses. They never find out why.
Once Uncle Li went to town to buy some medicine for his wife. In the town he heard the apples in a city were expensive. He told Uncle Wang about it as soon as he went back. They decided to carry some apples to the city. They borrowed some money from their friends and bought nearly 1,000 kilograms of apples in the villages and carried them to the city on a tractor. Bad luck! A lot of apples has already been carried there when they arrived. A few days later they had to sell them at a low price (价格)。They felt unhappy and returned to their village.
"I can"t understand why we sustained (蒙受) losses in business while others always profit (盈利)" Uncle Li asked one day.
"The tractor was too small " Uncle Wang said without thinking. "We"ll carry more apples on a truck next time!"
"I agree!" said Uncle Li. "How foolish (傻的) we were !"

解析

试题分析:这篇短文为我们讲述的是两个不爱动脑筋的人。李叔叔和王叔叔两人工作都很努力,但就是仍然很穷,不像别人那样会赚钱。文中还举了一个例子,两人想去城里卖苹果,结果城里的苹果太多了,两人只好低价把苹果卖了,又赔了不少钱。最终两个人也没有找到他们穷的原因。
小题1:细节理解题。他们两个还住在又矮又破的房子里是因为They"re both poor,他们两个都很穷。故选B。
小题2:推理判断题。根据文章第二段的内容可知,李叔叔在去城里买药的时候听说城里苹果很贵,回来马上告诉王叔叔。他们两人借钱买了很多苹果,拉到城里卖, 其目的就是想赚钱。make a profit 赚钱。故选D。
小题3:细节理解题。根据文中A lot of apples has already been carried there when they arrived,当他们两人到了的时候,很多苹果已经运到了城里。所以他们不得不低价把自己的苹果卖掉。故选C。
小题4:细节理解题。根据文中They felt unhappy and returned to their village."I can"t understand why we sustained (蒙受) losses in business while others always profit (盈利)。他们不高兴是因为卖苹果这件事又让他们蒙受了很大的损失。故选A。
小题5:推理判断题。故事中的两个人在卖苹果这件事上又赔钱了,但他们却怪是拖拉机太小了,拉去的苹果太少了,还要换成卡车运送苹果。可见二人并没有找到自己穷困的真正原因,故他们两个都不是聪明人。所以选C。

Dick was a college student. He was studying history. But at the end of the first year he did not pass the exam. A month later he sat for the make-up(补考) exam, but he was down again. Dick was worried, because he knew he might have to leave the college.
When Dick’s father knew this, he went to see the professor. “Dick is a good boy,” said the father. “If you let him pass this time, I’m sure he will study harder next year and pass all exams with very good marks.”
“No, that’s quite impossible,” answered the professor. “He almost knows nothing about history. Last month I asked him when Napoleon(拿破仑) died, and he said he didn’t know.”
