Question

【题目】— I want to help Joey with Chinese, since he has just moved here from America.

— ________, Joey's mother is a Chinese, so he speaks Chinese well.

A.Don't teach fish to swimB.Don't try to run before you walk

C.Don't burn the candle at both endsD.Don't put all your eggs in one basket

Answer 1

【答案】A

【解析】

句意：——我想帮乔伊学中文，因为他刚从美国搬来。——别班门弄斧。乔伊的妈妈是中国人，所以他汉语说得很好。

考查习语。Don't teach fish to swim别教鱼游泳，即切勿班门弄斧；Don't try to run before you walk走之前不要试着跑在学会走之前不要尝试跑，即不要急功近利的意思；Don't burn the candle at both ends蜡烛不能两头烧，即勿过分消耗体力；Don't put all your eggs in one basket不要把所有的鸡蛋放在一个篮子里，不要孤注一掷；即不要把一切希望寄托在一件事上；根据下文“,Joey's mother is a Chinese, so he speaks Chinese well”推断空格指不要班门弄斧；故选A。
