题目内容
Stanley Yelnats was given a choice. The judge said，“You may go to prison，or you may go to Camp Green Lake.”Stanley was from a poor family. He had never been to camp before. So， Stanley Yelnats seems set to serve an easy sentence，which is only fair because he is as innocent as you or me. But Stanley is not going where he thinks he is.
Camp Green Lake is like no other camp anywhere. It is a place that has no lake and nothing green. Nor is it a camp，at least not the kind of camp kids look forward to in the summertime. It is only a desert wasteland，dotted with countless holes dug by the boys who live at the camp.
At Camp Green Lake，the warden(看守)makes the boys“ build character” by spending all day, every day, digging holes：five feet wide and five feet deep. It doesn’t take long for Stanley to realize there’s more than character improvement going on at Camp Green Lake. The boys are digging holes because the warden is searching for something，and before long Stanley begins his own search—for the truth. Fate is to find a solution to it all—the family curse，the mystery of the holes. The great wheel of justice has ground slowly for generations，but now it is about to reveal its verdict(裁决).

1. judge said，“You may go to prison，or you may go to Camp Green Lake.意思是：裁判说，”你要么坐牢，或者你将会去荒岛”。而Stanley Yelnats去荒岛是为了服兵役。故选C。
2. judge doesn’t believe Stanley’s explanation that the shoes fell from the sky onto his head. And yet，that’s exactly what happened”意思是：裁判不相信Stanley的解释说这双鞋是天空中调到他的头上的，而那就是实际发生的事情。可知Stanley是偶然得到那双鞋的。故选B。
3. boys are digging holes because the warden is searching for something”意思是：这些男孩儿挖洞是因为看守的人在寻找一些东西。故选D。
