Question

【题目】Son’s Help

Mr. Lang worked in a factory. As a driver, he was busy but he was paid much. His wife was an able woman and did all the housework. When he came back, she took good care of him and he never did anything at home. So he had enough time when he had a holiday. A few friends of his liked gambling(赌博) and he learned it soon. So he was interested in it and hardly forgot anything except gambling. He lost all his money and later he began to sell the television, watches and so on. His wife told him not to do it but he didn’t listen to her. She had to tell the police. He and his friends were punished for it. And he was hardly sent away. After he came out of lockup(拘留所), he hated her very much and the woman had to leave him. It was New Year’s Day. Mr. Lang didn’t go to work. He felt lonely and wanted to gamble again. He called his friends and they came soon. But they were afraid the police would come. He told his five-year-old son to go to find out if there were the policemen outside. They waited for a long time and didn’t think the police would come and began to gamble. Suddenly opened the door and in came a few policemen. ―“I saw there weren’t any policemen outside, daddy,” said the boy, ―“so I went to the crossing and asked some to come.”

Answer 1

【答案】

【1】B

【2】C

【3】D

【4】A

【解析】

【1】细节理解题。从“As a driver, he was busy but he was paid much.”可知他很忙但是报酬颇丰，故此题应选B。

【2】推理判断题。从“His wife was an able woman and did all the housework”可知其很能干，所以不可能找不到工作，故B不对。从下文可知她不是不愿阻止丈夫赌博，而是丈夫不听劝阻，所以A不对。从“When he came back, she took good care of him and he never did anything at home.”她对丈夫照顾周到可知她体贴丈夫，怕累到丈夫不让其干活，故此题应选C。

【3】细节理解题。从“After he came out of lockup(拘留所), he hated her very much and the woman had to leave him.”可知从拘留所出来后他就恨起了妻子，既然恨，那就是不爱了，故此题应选D。

【4】推理判断题。 “I saw there weren’t any policemen outside, daddy,” said the boy, ―“so I went to the crossing and asked some to come.”男孩看到外面没警察，就替父亲叫了来。据此可知男孩以为父亲需要警察帮忙，故此题应选A。
