Question

【题目】 Dorothy and her friends were worried to get out of the forest as soon as they could, so they hurried along the yellow brick road. It was not long before they came to a wide river.

"What can we do now?" Dorothy exclaimed. "There isn't a tree tall enough to fall across this river. "

"There's no problem, "the Scarecrow (稻草人)said. "The Tin Woodman will use his axe to build a raft (木筏) . "

And this is what the Tin Woodman did. And while he was busy making the raft, Dorothy found some wild fruit and nuts, which she ate hungrily. Then, because it was taking the Tin Woodman a long time to finish the raft, Dorothy lay down and went t sleep.

The night passed without any problems, and the next morning the raft was ready. Dorothy sat in the middle with Toto. The Lion stood at one end and nearly sank (下沉)it because he was so big and heavy. The Scarecrow and the Tin Woodman stood at the other end They both had long poles (杆子)that they used to push the raft through the water.

At first all went well, but then the river became so deep that the poles could not touch the bottom.

The Tin Woodman said, "If we cannot stay near the land and the yellow brick road, the Wicked Witch of the West will use her magic and put a spell (咒语)on us. "

"And then we won't meet the Wizard, and I won't get any brains, " the Scarecrow said.

"And I won't get a heart, "the Tin Woodman said.

"And I won't get any courage, "the Lion said.

"And I'll never get home to Kansas, " Dorothy said. "we must do something"

The Scarecrow was able to push the raft to the river bank. Dorothy, Toto, the Lion and the Tin

Woodman got off. Before the Scarecrow could get off however, the raft moved away from the river band and carried the Scarecrow down the river.

Dorothy said, "Perhaps we'll met the raft further down the river. The most important thing now is to get back to the yellow brick road and continue on our way to the City of Emeralds. "

The Lion and the Tin Woodman agreed, and they set off along the river bank. It was not long before they saw the Scarecrow. He was holding onto the pole in the middle of the river. There was no sight of the raft.

【1】

推理判断题。根据文中“Dorothy and her friends were worried to get out of the forest as soon as they could, so they hurried along the yellow brick road.”可知，他们想尽快的走出森林可能是因为他们之前在森林里遇到了危险，所以不想再待在森林里，故选B。

【2】

细节理解题。根据文中“And I won’t get a heart,” the Tin Woodman said.可知，是Tin Woodman想得到一颗心脏，故选D。

【3】

细节理解题。根据文中“And this is what the Tin Woodman did. And while he was busy making the raft, Dorothy found some wild fruit and nuts, which she ate hungrily.”可知，在Tin木匠开始造木筏的时候，Dorothy发现了一些野生水果和坚果，然后经过一夜之后第二天早上木筏做好了，他们准备出发，所以这里是序号④和②，由文中“The Scarecrow and the Tin Woodman stood at the other end They both had long poles (杆子)that they used to push the raft through the water. ”稻草人和Tin木匠站在另一端，他们都有长杆，用来把木筏推过水面。可知这里是序号①；后来他们又回到了岸上，根据文中“Before the Scarecrow could get off however, the raft moved away from the river band and carried the Scarecrow down the river.”可知，在稻草人还没来得及下船，木筏就离开了河边，把稻草人带到了河边，也就是序号③，所以事情的发展顺序是4-2-1-3，故选B。

【4】

推理判断题。根据文中The Tin Woodman said, “If we cannot stay near the land and the yellow brick road, the Wicked Witch of the West will use her magic and put a spell (咒语)on us.” “And then we won’t meet the Wizard, and I won’t get any brains,” the Scarecrow said. “And I won’t get a heart,” the Tin Woodman said. “And I won’t get any courage,” the Lion said. “And I’ll never get home to Kansas,” Dorothy said. “we must do something” The Scarecrow was able to push the raft to the river bank.可知，他们是希望能够遇到Wizard，故选C。
