Answer 1

分析 文章主要讲述了Jack用了个小伎俩让警察帮助妻子Jane开垦花园以便种植蔬菜的故事．

解答 21．B细节题．根据第一段最后一句"The only small amount she had was from the government．"可知，Jane的一点生活费用来自于政府．故选B．
22．D推断题．根据第一段第二句"Jane had a very difficult time．because She had two children，but no job"可知，Jane有一段时间生活过得非常艰难，因为他有两个孩子，但却没有工作．这就说明她没有钱抚养孩子，缺钱是他生活非常艰难的主要原因，故选D．
23．D细节题．根据第五段最后一句"They took forks and shovels with them．They dug up the garden，looking for the money，but they found nothing．"可知，这只是Jack玩的一个伎俩，目的是让狱警们帮助妻子Jane开垦花园以便种植蔬菜．故选D．
24．A主旨题．根据这篇文章的描述Jack用了个小伎俩让警察帮助妻子Jane开垦花园以便种植蔬菜，因此他是聪明的．整篇文章中并未写到Jack的懒惰笨拙以及粗心．故选A．
