Question

【题目】A college teacher invited two businessmen(商人) to dinner at his home. One of the two men never went to schoo1 and was worried that he couldn't answer other men's questions correctly. But his friend said, “Don't worry, Tom，just do what I do, and don't talk about anything if you don't understand it.”

Everything went on quite well, but by the end of the evening, Tom had had a lot of drink, and began to get careless.

One of the guests asked him if he liked Mark Twain, and Tom answered, "It's pleasant, but I like Scotch(苏格兰威士忌酒) better." All the guests in the room kept quiet for a moment, and soon they began to leave.

When the two men were out of the house, the friend said to Tom, "You certainly made yourself a fool because you told Scotch foolishly（愚蠢地）."

"What do you mean?" asked the other man."What was wrong with it?"

"We all know that Mark Twain isn't a kind of drink, "his friend answered, "It's a kind of music."

试题分析：本文讲述了两位商人去一位大学教师家参加晚饭的故事。其中一个名叫汤姆的商人因为自己没有上过学，担心自己会说错话。但是他喝了很多酒后，当有人问他是否喜欢马克吐温时，汤姆认为马克吐温是酒，就是他更喜欢的苏格兰威士忌。他的朋友对他说，马克吐温不是一种饮料，而是一种音乐。

【1】A根据A college teacher invited two businessmen(商人) to dinner at his home.可知两个商人被邀请在一位大学教授家里吃晚饭，故此处与原文一致，故为A。

【2】A根据One of the two men never went to schoo1 and was worried that he couldn't answer other men's questions correctly. But his friend said, “Don't worry, Tom，just do what I do, and don't talk about anything if you don't understand it.”可知汤姆因为从没有上过学，他担心不能正确地回答其他人的问题，因此他害怕回答别人的问题。故此处与原文一致，故为A。

【3】B根据Everything went on quite well, but by the end of the evening, Tom had had a lot of drink, 可知汤姆在很晚的时候喝了很多酒，故此处与原文不符，故为B。

【4】A根据One of the guests asked him if he liked Mark Twain, and Tom answered, "It's pleasant, but I like Scotch(苏格兰威士忌酒) better." 可知汤姆认为Mark Twain是一种酒，故此处与原文一致，故为A。

【5】B根据"We all know that Mark Twain isn't a kind of drink, "his friend answered, "It's a kind of music."可知另一位商人认为马克吐温不是一种饮料而是一种音乐，其实马克吐温是一名作家。因此另一名商人说的也不对，故此处原文不一致，故为B。
