【題目】 (One day, Gulliver was caught in a storm and his ship hit a rock, then damaged. He was washed to the beach. When he woke up, he found himself in Lilliput and a lot of' tiny people were around him.)

The Emperor spoke in a low voice but I could hear all the words clearly.

His Majesty and I often spoke to each other but neither of us understood a single word. I tried words from many languages. No one could understand me, not even the cleverest of the Emperor's followers.

After about two hours the Emperor left. His wife, children and their servants went also. There were strong guards around me. This was to stop the crowd of people from hurting me.

An officer told the guards to hold six men who made me angry. These men were given to me and I had to choose their punishment. I put five of them in my pocket. Then I pretended(假裝)to eat the sixth man.

The poor man screamed terribly. The guards were worried when they saw my knife in my hand. I only cut the rope round his hands. Then I put him on his feet and let him go. I lifted the other five men out of my pocket and put them gently on the ground too.

The people and the soldiers were very pleased with my great kindness. They told the Emperor about it immediately. Emperor ordered his men to make a bed for me and they had to join six hundred of their little beds together to make one bed for me.

At the same time the Emperor asked all his advisers for their advice on how to deal with me. They were very worried. If they set me free, I might be dangerous. I was eating so much food that soon all the people would be hungry. The farmers could not grow enough food to feed all of us.

The wise men thought that they should kill me. But they would not be able to bury(埋葬)me. My dead body would smell. This might cause much illness all over the country.

1Why did the tiny people hurt Gulliver at first?

A.They just wanted to make fun of him.B.They thought he would attack the king.

C.They wanted to kill him and got his knife.D.They were afraid of him because he was too big.

2The underlined word "them" in Paragraph 4 refers to(指代)" ________" .

A.the guardsB.the six men

C.the officersD.the Emperor's children

3What do the last two paragraphs mainly talk about?

A.The Emperor and his men's decision to kill Gulliver.

B.The Emperor and his men's communication with Gulliver.

C.The Emperor and his men's difficulties in dealing with Gulliver.

D.The Emperor and his people's pleasure with Gulliver's great kindness.

4What prevented the tiny people from killing Gulliver?

A.Gulliver's size and knife.B.Gulliver's strength and wisdom.

C.The king and his wife's order.D.The trouble of his dead body.

【解析】

本文是一篇人物故事類短文,主要介紹了Gulliver在小人國(guó)的遭遇。

1細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段中“When he woke up, he found himself in Lilliput”當(dāng)他醒來(lái)的時(shí)候,他發(fā)現(xiàn)自己在小人國(guó),可知對(duì)于小人國(guó)的人來(lái)說(shuō),格列佛太大了,讓他們感到害怕。故選D

2詞義猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)第五段第一句“An officer told the guards to hold six men who made me angry.”,可知“them”是指代這六名讓我生氣的人。故選B。

3細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段第一句“At the same time the Emperor asked all his advisers for their advice on how to deal with me”,可知皇帝和他的子民是在商量怎么處置Gulliver。故選C。

4細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)最后一段中“But they would not be able to bury me. My dead body would smell. This might cause much illness all over the country.”,可知小人國(guó)不知道怎么處置Gulliver死后的尸體,所以沒(méi)殺他。故選D。
