名師點(diǎn)評(píng)
本文講述了一個(gè)聰明的小男孩的故事。他要求加入一位富人的旅行，在得到同意后 選擇擔(dān)子時(shí)，看似愚蠢地選擇了最大、最重的擔(dān)子。而這恰恰就是他的聰明之處，因?yàn)樗舻拿姘谕局惺潜贿呑哌叧缘模竭_(dá)目的地時(shí)已所剩無幾。閱讀這故選foolish。篇文章時(shí)要注意句子的整體理解，如第8、9、10這三題。
答案解析在下一頁
1. B。這位富人不僅帶了東西去賣，而且?guī)уX去“買”東西。解這道題時(shí)要注意將句中and前后的內(nèi)容進(jìn)行比較。
2. A。根據(jù)他的想法，他“決定”要帶十個(gè)仆人。這件事完全可以由他自己決定，所以沒有必要“希望帶……”或“努力帶……”，故C、D不合題意。
3. C。carry在句中意為“攜帶、運(yùn)送”;take 意為“帶走”;bring意為“帶來”。本句意為“他們將運(yùn)送要賣的東西和在路上要吃的食物”。下文的第10、11兩題所在的句子也有提示。

9. C。參照第8題。
10. A。參照第8題。
