Question

【题目】阅读理解
One day, five blind men were walking along, when suddenly they bumped into something very big in front of them. Each one put out his hand and touched it. The first man thought it was a tree ---it was tall and round. The second man felt something tall and wide and rough(粗糙的) and said, “Aha! This must be a wall !” The third man touched a very long smooth thing. He guessed this was a spear (矛).Then the fourth man said, “I feel cool. There must be a fan up there. Oh, yes! Here it is!” He touched something big and round that was moving. What did the fifth man find? Well, he started shouting that he was being chased(追赶) by a snake.

（1）细节理解题。根据短文中的句子“The first man thought it was a tree ---it was tall and round.”像一棵树，又高有圆，可推测是大象的腿，答案为A。
（2）细节理解题。根据短文中的句子Then the fourth man said, “I feel cool. There must be a fan up there. Oh, yes! Here it is!”大象的耳朵像风扇，所以答案是D。
（3）词意猜测题。根据短文中的句子Each one put out his hand and touched it. The first man thought it was a tree ---it was tall and round.并列连词and连接两个谓语，应为动词形式，因为是盲人，靠触觉感知，所以答案是B。
（4）细节判断题。根据短文中的句子“What did the fifth man find? Well, he started shouting that he was being chased(追赶) by a snake.”可知，第五位盲人摸到的不会是象牙，所以答案是C。
（5）主旨大意题。根据短文最后一句话“and they felt silly because everything they had touched belonged to an elephant.”可知，看待事情不能片面，要整体把握。所以答案是C。
