Question

【題目】閱讀理解
Jehdi and Hassan were businessmen and good friends.
One day they found themselves in a forest. They were tired so they sat down and Jehdi fell asleep.
As Jehdi slept, Hassan saw a wasp (黃蜂) coming from his friend's nose. It flew toward a pine tree (松樹), circled it three times, and then returned to Jehdi's nose.
When Jehdi woke he said, “Hassan, What a dream! Imagine a big pine tree, like that one there. A wasp flies around it and its buzz (嗡嗡叫) seems to say,
‘You must dig here.' I dig and I find a big box of gold.”
“Yes, a strange dream,” replied Hassan. “Why don't you dig around that tree and see if it's true?”

“My friend, it was just a dream and anyway it's too hot to dig.”
Hassan said, “If you do not want to dig, I will. Sell your dream to me.”
“How much will you pay?” asked Jehdi.
Hassan agreed to pay 300 coins.
“Never have I made such a business deal. How nave (天真的) you are, Hassan!”
The two friends then went to the pine tree Jehdi had dreamed about. Jehdi stood there with a smile on his face to see Hassan start digging. But he laughed on the other side of his face when Hassan dug up a huge box of gold.
After this, Hassan had so much gold that he lived a rich life until his death. Jehdi often visited him. He would say, “Well, Hassan, how are you? I have come to see my dream.” They would pat(輕拍) each other on the back and laugh. But each time Jehdi went home sadly. He could never buy back his dream.

【解析】文章大意：本文介紹了兩個商人Jehdi和Hassan坐在松樹下休息。Jehdi夢見一只黃蜂讓他在松樹下面挖出一箱黃金。他不相信這個夢是真的。于是他的朋友Hassan買下來他的夢，真的挖出了一大箱黃金。Jehdi非常難過。
(1)推理判斷題。根據(jù)When Jehdi woke he said, “Hassan, What a dream! Imagine a big pine tree, like that one there. A wasp flies around it and its buzz (嗡嗡叫) seems to say, ‘You must dig here.' I dig and I find a big box of gold.”可知在Jehdi的夢里，他挖出來一箱黃金。故選B。
(2)推理判斷題。根據(jù)“My friend, it was just a dream and anyway it's too hot to dig.”可知Jehdi不愿意去挖，是因為他不相信他的夢是真的，故選A。
(3)推理判斷題。根據(jù)“Never have I made such a business deal. How nave (天真的) you are, Hassan!”可知Jehdi 認(rèn)為Hassan同意這個買賣，太天真了，太愚蠢了，故選C。
(4)詞義猜測題。根據(jù)when Hassan dug up a huge box of gold.可知Jehdi曾經(jīng)笑話他這是愚蠢的，相信夢里的東西，但是Hassan真的挖出來一大箱金子，這時應(yīng)是不高興，故選A。
