Question

【題目】A teacher let her class play a game. The teacher told each child to bring a bag with some potatoes. Each potato would be given a name of a person that the child hated, so the number of potatoes in his/her bag would depend on the number of people the child hated. Some children had two potatoes, some had three and others had up to five potatoes. The teacher then told the children to carry the bag wherever they went for a week. After a week, the teacher asked, “How did you feel?” The children started complaining about the unpleasant smell coming from the rotten potatoes when they had to carry the heavy and smelly potatoes everywhere they went.

Then the teacher said,” This is the same when you carry your hate for somebody inside your heart. The smell of hate will pollute your heart and you will carry it with you wherever you go. If you cannot bear the smell of rotten potatoes for just one week, can you imagine what it is like to have the smell of hate in your heart for your lifetime?”

試題分析:本文的老師讓學(xué)生們玩一個(gè)土豆游戲，老師告訴每個(gè)孩子帶一個(gè)包帶一些土豆，從腐爛土豆的例子從而告訴學(xué)生們帶著仇恨的壞處，以此來教給學(xué)生們要學(xué)會(huì)寬恕，這樣才能獲得快樂。

【1】B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段的The teacher then told the children to carry the bag wherever they went for a week.可知教師要求學(xué)生走到哪，裝有土豆的書包就帶到哪。故選B。

【2】D詞義猜測題。根據(jù)第一段的the unpleasant smell可知土豆的味道不好聞，因此此處是指土豆腐爛了。故選D。

【3】B推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段的If you cannot bear the smell of rotten potatoes for just one week, can you imagine what it is like to have the smell of hate in your heart for your lifetime?”可知腐爛的土豆氣味，我們一周都忍受不了，那一輩子心里裝著憎恨的氣味會(huì)是什么樣？也就是說一輩子憎恨別人是不會(huì)讓人快樂的。故選B。

【4】D標(biāo)題歸納題。根據(jù)最后一段的The smell of hate will pollute your heart and you will carry it with you wherever you go.可知憎恨的氣味污染著你的內(nèi)心，讓你不快樂，因此寬恕了別人也就寬恕了自己。故選D。
