题目内容
________ me carefully, boys and girls. Can you ________ me?
[ ]
解析：
|
解析：根据句意“孩子们，仔细听。能听到我说话吗？”可知第一空强调听的动作，第二空强调听的结果。 |
提示：
|
启示： hear和listen两个动词都有“听”的意思，但是表示的意思及用法不一样。hear是“听见、听到”，不是有意识地听，侧重于听的结果。hear在作“听见”讲时，不能用在进行时态中。如： What did you hear just now? 你刚才听见了什么？ listen是“听”，指有意识地倾听，但不一定听见，侧重于听的动作。listen是不及物动词，后面常用介词to。listen to可以用在进行时态中。如： I listened but I could hear nothing. 我认真听着，但什么也没有听到。 |
Saturday morning was bright and fresh. There was a song in every heart, cheer on every face, and a spring in every step.
Tom appeared with a bucket（桶）of white paint in one hand and a brush in the other. His Aunt Polly told him to paint the fence（篱笆）around the garden. It was ninety feet long and nine feet high. He felt very blue.
Then he had a wonderful idea. He picked up his brush and started to work.
Soon Ben came along the road. He was happily eating an apple. He stopped to look at Tom. Tom went on painting and pretended（假装）not to see Ben.
“I’m going swimming,” said Ben. “Do you want to go swimming, Tom? But I guess you can’t. You have to stay and work, don’t you?”
“Work?” Tom said. “This isn’t work. I’m enjoying myself. Does a boy get a chance to paint a fence like this every day?”
Ben thought about this. Tom continued painting carefully. Sometimes he stopped, stood back to look at the fence like an artist, and then added（增加）a bit more paint in just the right place. Ben was watching Tom paint with great interest. He was getting more and more eager（渴望的）to have a try himself.
After a while, Ben asked Tom if he would let him paint a little. Tom thought about it, and said, “No, Ben, I can’t. You see. Aunt Polly wants it to be done well. Aunt Polly said that I must paint it with great care.”
“Oh, please, Tom,” begged Ben. “I can do it. I’ll be really careful. Just let me try. I’ll give you half of my apple. Well, I’ll give you all of it!”
“Well, all right, Ben,” said Tom. “You must be very careful.”
He gave Ben his brush with worry on his face but joy in his heart. He sat down under the tree, and started to eat Ben’s apple. All day, boys came to make fun of Tom, but they ended up staying to paint. When Ben got tired, Billy was waiting. He gave Tom a kite for a chance to paint. Then Johnny offered him a basketball, and so on.
By late afternoon Tom had got all kinds of toys, and the fence had got three coats of paint. Later Aunt Polly came to look at the painted fence. She was so pleased with Tom’s work that she gave Tom a large cake!

One day Mrs. Wilson went shopping with Tracy and Ben. They went to the supermarket in the new shopping center.” Why do you buy things here?” Tracy wanted to know. “Because they are cheaper here than at the corner store near our home,” Mrs. Wilson said.” Help me check the prices, please.” The Wilsons were not rich and Mrs. Wilson was always careful with her money. She looked carefully after the prices of things. She bought lots of things in the supermarket. When they got home, the children said,“ We don’t think you saved money by going to the supermarket.” “Of course I did,” Mrs. Wilson said. “ Everything was cheaper there.” “We know,” the children said,“ but we came home by taxi because we had too much to carry.
