One night a man came to our house and told me, “There is a family with eight children. They have nothing to eat for days.”
I took some food and went. When I finally came to the family, I saw the ugly face of those little children by hunger. There was no sorrow (悲傷) or sadness in their faces, just the deep pain of hunger.
I gave the rice to the mother. She divided(分) it into two, and went out, carry half the rice with her. When she came back, I asked her, “Where did you go?” She gave me this simple answer, “To my neighbours----they are also hungry.”
I was not surprised that she gave----because poor people are unselfish(無私的). But I was surprised that she knew they were hungry. As a rule, when we are in trouble, we think more about ourselves, and have no time for others.
【小題1】 The writer thought poor people were _________.

A．luckyB．generousC．uglyD．sad
【小題2】 The mother went out to _________.
A．give some rice to her neighboursB．look for her children
C．cook the riceD．buy some rice
【小題3】Which is not true about the story?
A．The story happened at night.
B．The family was kind and generous.
C．The family had nothing to eat because they were lazy.
D．As a rule, we have no time for others when we are in trouble.


【小題1】B
【小題2】A
【小題3】C

解析【小題1】根據(jù)本文的第三段可知窮人有吃時候還會考慮自己的鄰居，所以作者認(rèn)為窮人是慷慨的，故本題選B。
【小題2】本文第三段第一句為I gave the rice to the mother. She divided(分) it into two, and went out,所表示的含義為媽媽出去把一半的米飯給他的鄰居，故本題選A。
【小題3】從本文第一段可知這個家庭有八個孩子，所以沒有吃應(yīng)該是窮的，而不是懶惰的，故本題選C。
