题目内容
【题目】Mr. Hunt came from a poor family. He had three brothers and two sisters. His father worked hard but wasn’t paid much. And his mother did all the housework at home. They were both able but they couldn’t get enough money for their family.
Mr. Hunt was in school for only three years and he had to stop to help his parents though he was good at his lessons. When he was sixteen, he came to the city and began to work in a small factory. He learned from an old worker and became a skilled worker. The old worker liked him and married his daughter to him. The young man did not have his own house and had to live with his parents-in-law. His mother-in-law always thought he was poor and often chattered. So the young man tried to save everything and hoped to have his own house.
It was one fine Sunday. The old woman wanted to have a picnic on the top of the hill. She told Mr. Hunt to drive her car. But sometimes she told him to turn left and sometimes to turn right. The young man had to listen to her. At a crossing the lights were red but she made him turn left. The policeman stopped them and told the young man to give his license to him.
“If I did wrong, sir,” said Mr. Hunt, “It was my mother-in-law’s fault(过错). She was driving the car though she sat behind me!”

【1】C细节理解题。根据短文第一段中Mr. Hunt came from a poor family. …They were both able but they couldn’t get enough money for their family.可知，Hunt先生来自一个贫穷的家庭，他的家人都很有能力，但是却赚不到足够的钱，所以Hunt一家非常的穷。由此可知选C。
【2】B 推理判断题。根据短文第二段中Mr. Hunt was in school for only three years and he had to stop to help his parents though he was good at his lessons.可知，Hunt先生只上了三年学就退学了，因为他必须帮助父母。由此我们可以推断，Hunt先生因为家庭贫困而辍学。故选B。
【3】A 细节理解题。根据短文中He learned from an old worker and became a skilled worker. The old worker liked him and married his daughter to him可知，Hunt先生在一个工厂里跟一个老工人学习，成为了一个技术工人，那个老工人非常喜欢他，并把他的女儿嫁给了他。由此可知选A。

【5】A 推理判断题。根据短文最后两段的意思可知，Hunt先生在开车的时候，他的岳母老是在后面指挥他，向左转，向右转，还让他闯红灯。所以Hunt先生就对警察说是他的岳母在开车。故A不符合文意，选A。B、C和D选项都符合文意。
