Foolish (愚蠢的) Freddie lived in a small village. The people of the village laughed at him. They liked to show visitors how silly Freddie was. They thought this was a funny thing to do.
One day, a visitor came to the village.
“Watch this.” a villager said, and called to Freddie. “Come and play a game Freddie.” he shouted. Freddie walked slowly towards him, a silly smile on his face.
“Look! Freddie,”the villager said, “I've got something for you.” He showed Freddie a dollar coin and a much large 50-cent coin. “Which would you like?" he asked Freddie.
Freddie took the 50-cent Coin at once.
The villager laughed. “See how foolish he is,” he said. “He always does that. He's too silly to learn anything." He walked away, leaving Freddie with the visitor.

【解析】短文大意:弗雷迪是一个村民们嘲笑的对象,他们常常让他做同样的游戏来证明弗雷迪多么愚蠢:弗雷迪往往从1美元和一个50美分的硬币中挑选看上去较大的50美分,弗雷迪真的很愚蠢吗?本文通过这个故事告诉我们,大智若愚往往是聪明之举。
(1)细节理解题。根据第一段的第三句话They thought this was a funny thing to do.可知村民取笑他的原因是因为他看上去很愚蠢,村民们以为他是个傻子,故选D。
(2)细节理解题。根据第一段的第三句话“They liked to show visitors how silly Freddie was. ”可判断选 A.
(3)根据文章结尾几句话 “I know that.” Freddie said. "But once (一旦) I take the $1 coin, they'll stop playing the game.”可知 Freddie 其实并不傻,大智若愚往往是聪明之举。故选C。
(4)从故事的情节可知 Freddie 并不是真傻,故 Foolish要加上引号,所以 “Foolish" Freddie作为文章的标题更为合适,故选B。
