Question

Passage 4

 Mr Brown was going away for a week. Before he left, he said to his son, "if anyone asks for me, you can tell him that your father has been out for doing something, and will be back in a week, then be sure to ask him to sit down for a cup of tea."

"OK, Dad," said his son. But he was afraid his son couldn't remember this, he wrote these words down on a piece of paper and gave it to him. His son put it into his small pocket, took it out and looked at it every now and then.

Four days passed, but no one came to see his father. The boy thought that there was no man to come and that the piece of paper was of no more use for him, so he burnt it that evening.

The next afternoon, someone knocked at the door. The boy opened it. A man was standing at the door and said, “Where is your father?” The boy put his hand into his pocket at once and looked for the piece of paper. He could not find it. He suddenly remembered he had burnt it, so he shouted, “No more.”

The man was very surprised. He asked, “No more? I met your father last week. When did it happen?”

"Burnt yesterday evening."

試題分析：這篇短文是一個有趣的故事。故事中的父親要離開家一星期，走之前告訴自己的兒子，如果有客人來就告訴他們他一星期后就會回來。并把這句話寫在了一張紙上。前幾天并沒有客人來，所以兒子就把那張紙燒了。結(jié)果第二天就有客人來了，客人跟孩子之間鬧出了很大的笑話。

1.細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文中your father has been out for doing something, and will be back in a week可知，文中的父親外出要一周后回來，也就是7天后。故選B。

2.細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文中he wrote these words down on a piece of paper，他把這些話寫在了一張紙上。故選C。

3.細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文中four days passed, but no one came to see his father…The next afternoon, someone knocked the door, 我們可以知道，四天過去了，沒有人來找他的父親，第二天下午，有人敲門�？芍�四天后的第二天，也就是第五天。故選D。

4.推理判斷題。根據(jù)文中Where is your father?  No more.你的父親在哪里？ 沒有了。兒子只想著他燒掉的那張紙，所以和客人之間發(fā)生了誤會，客人以為是他的父親沒有了，即去世了。故選A。

5.細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文中The boy thought that there was no man to come and that the piece of paper was of no more use for him, so he burnt it that evening. 可知燒掉的是那張紙。故選A。
