【题目】【2016浙江衢州】阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。

Even though I just had lunch not long ago, I was felling hungry again. I went to the kitchen to look for something to eat. That was when I discovered the pudding in the fridge. It was made from milk, sugar, eggs and fruits, and it looked so yummy. I noticed that there was only one left.

I was putting the pudding on a plate when my brother came into the kitchen. He found the pudding and asked for it. “It’s mine! I was the only one who found it!” I shouted. “You are my elder brother, You should give it to me!” said he. Then he started pulling the plate towards himself and I did the same.

Suddenly, the plate moved to one side and the pudding slipped (滑动) out of the plate. It landed on the floor and turned into a yellow mess. My brother and I both looked at each other, feeling amazed and disappointed at the same time. It was such a waste!

To my surprise, Ollie, our pet dog, walked over to the mess on the floor. It began to lap up the pudding happily, Within minutes, the mess on the floor was gone. Ollie licked (舔) its lips when it was done.

After watching Ollie finishing the whole pudding by itself, we realized _____ . If both of us had shared the pudding, we would both have got to eat half of it. It was because of our greed (贪婪) that we ended up with nothing. That day, my brother and I learnt a good lesson.

试题分析：本题讲述了作者小时候和弟弟争吃一块点心，由于两人互不相让，最后甜点心掉到地上，成了狗的美食的故事。告诉人们要学会分享，不得贪婪的道理。

【1】D 推理判断题。题意：作者的弟弟认为他应该吃点心是因为什么？A. he found it by himself他自己找到的；B. he made it by himself他自己做的；C. he was hungrier他更饿；D. he was younger他更小。由第二段倒数第二句“You are my elder brother, You should give it to me!”（你是我的哥哥，你应该给我）可以推测出他认为作者比他大，即他更年幼，所以该吃那块点心。故选D。

【2】C 词义猜测题。题意：第四自然段中有下划线的“lap up”最哪一个含义最接近？A. share分享；B. move移动，搬动；C. eat吃；D. pull拉。本句指狗开始高兴地lap up那块点心。可以推测出其含义是：吃。故选C。
