Question

One day a poor man was cutting a big piece of wood near a river. Suddenly his old axe(斧头) fell into the water. He felt very sad because he lost his only axe. Then all at once a beautiful fairy(仙女) came out and asked the man what was the matter.
“I have lost my axe.” he said. “It fell into the water when I was cutting the wood.” The fairy showed him a gold axe and asked, “Is this yours?” “No.” said the man.
The fairy then showed him a silver axe and asked again. “Is this yours?” “No.” again answered the man. Then she showed him the old axe.
“Yes, this is mine.” called out the happy man. “I know that well enough.” Said the fairy, “I only want to see if you can tell me the truth, and now I’ll give you the gold axe and the silver axe besides your own one.”

短文大意：一个人的斧子掉到了河里面，一位仙女为他提供了一把金斧子和银斧子来考验他是否诚实。这个人面对金斧子和银斧子不动心，只想要自己的旧斧子，可见他是个诚实的人。最后仙女把金斧子和银斧子也给了他。
小题1:本句意思是他和斧子都掉到了河里面。根据第一段Suddenly his old axe(斧头) fell into the water.描述，可知只有他的斧子掉到了河里面，故本句描述错误。
小题2:本句意思是，仙女出来问他怎么了。根据第一段Then all at once a beautiful fairy(仙女) came out and asked the man what was the matter. 描述，可知本句描述正确。
小题3:本句意思是，这个伤心的男人只想要金斧子和银斧子。根据短文二三段描述，可知这个男人只想要他的旧斧子。故本句描述错误。
小题4:根据第三段Then she showed him the old axe.描述，可知这位仙女帮助这个男人找到了他的斧子。故本句描述正确。
小题5:这篇短文中的男人面对金斧子和银斧子不动心，只想要自己的旧斧子，可见他是个诚实的人。根据最后一段描述，可知仙女把金斧子和银斧子也给了他。故本句描述正确。
