Question

Long ago there were two people--- a young father and an old neighbor. One day the young father was visiting the old neighbor. They were standing in the old man’s garden, talking about children. The young man said, “How strict should parents be with their children?”

The old man pointed to a string（繩子）between a big strong tree and a thin young one．“Please untie（解開）that string，” he said．The young man untied it, and the young tree bent over to one side. “Now tie it again，please,” said the old man, “but first pull the string tight so that the young tree is straight again.”

    The young man did so．Then the old man said，“There，it is the same with children. You must be strict with them, but sometimes you must untie the string to know how they are getting on．If they are not yet able to stand alone，you must tie the string tight again.

試題分析：文章大意：老人通過樹與繩子的事例來說明對孩子該有多嚴(yán)格。對孩子嚴(yán)格要求，如果用一根繩子將小樹系在大樹上，以幫助它長直，但一段時(shí)間以后，要將繩子解下看看，樹有沒有能自己獨(dú)自站直，如果不行，就還得系上繩子，如果行了，就可以將繩子拿掉了。

1.D 歸納概括題。第一段They were standing in the old man’s garden, talking about children. The young man said, “How strict should parents be with their children?” 他們站在老人的園子里，談?wù)撝�孩子。年輕人說，“父母應(yīng)該對孩子多嚴(yán)格呢？”第二段及第三段是老人巧妙地告訴年輕人這個(gè)問題的答案，因此應(yīng)該選答案D。

2.A 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)題中untied the string，到文中去找信息源。第二段The young man untied it, and the young tree bent over to one side.年輕人解開那根繩子，小樹彎到一邊去了�？芍獞�(yīng)該選答案A。

3.B 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)題中the string be taken away，到文中去找信息源。第三段But when you find that they are ready to stand alone，you can take the string away. 但是，當(dāng)你發(fā)現(xiàn)他們已經(jīng)能獨(dú)自直立時(shí)，你就可以把繩子拿開了�？芍獞�(yīng)該選答案B。

4.A 推理判斷題。老人通過樹與繩子的事例來說明對孩子該有多嚴(yán)格。對孩子嚴(yán)格要求，如果用一根繩子將小樹系在大樹上，以幫助它長直，但一段時(shí)間以后，要將繩子解下看看，樹有沒有能自己獨(dú)自站直，如果不行，就還得系上繩子，如果行了，就可以將繩子拿掉了。C選項(xiàng)有一定的干擾性，但選項(xiàng)中的tie是指繩子綁樹的動(dòng)作而并非是綁孩子，相對于孩子應(yīng)該是嚴(yán)格要求。因此，選答案A。
