分析 有個人一直在尋找古代的東西.一天,他來到一個村莊,發(fā)現(xiàn)了一個藍色的碗.這個碗看起來很舊了.這個碗地上放著,一只貓正在喝碗里的牛奶.貓的主人是個農(nóng)夫,他正坐在碗的旁邊.那個人不想讓農(nóng)夫知道自己對這個碗感興趣.所以他對農(nóng)夫說:"這是一只多么可愛的貓啊!你能把它賣給我嗎?"
農(nóng)夫回答說:"你能支付多少錢呢?"
那個人說:"30美元,足夠了吧?"
過了一會,這個農(nóng)夫同意了.當(dāng)那人把錢付給了農(nóng)夫,他對農(nóng)夫說,"這只貓習(xí)慣于用這碗吃東西了,我能把這碗和貓一起帶走嗎?"
但是農(nóng)夫說:"抱歉,我不能把碗給你.多虧了這個碗,我已經(jīng)用它賣了30只貓!"

解答 66.C.句意理解題.根據(jù)A man was looking for things of the old times,可知這里的意思是有個人一直在尋找古代的東西,從這里可以看出他喜歡收藏古代的東西.故選C.
67.C.細節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)The man did not want the farmer to know that he was interested in the bowl.可知那個人不想讓農(nóng)夫知道自己對這個碗感興趣.所以他對農(nóng)夫說想買貓,那樣的話就會很簡單的拿走那只碗.故選C.
68.答案:B.細節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)This cat is used to eating with his bowl.May I take this bowl with the cat可知這里那個人對農(nóng)夫說我可以把這個碗也帶走讓貓用它吃飯嗎,從那個人的話中可以推測出他認為農(nóng)夫不知道碗的價值.故選B.
69.B.推理判斷題.根據(jù)Thanks to the bowl,I have sold thirty cats可知這里的意思是多虧了這個碗,我已經(jīng)用它賣30只貓了,從這里看出他留著那碗是為了賣更多只貓,故選B.
70.C.主旨大意題.根據(jù)文意可知這個人想用買下貓的方法間接地得到那只碗,但這個農(nóng)民早已知道這碗的價值,看穿了這個男人的心機,他要留著這碗繼續(xù)用它來賣貓賺錢,從這里可以看出農(nóng)夫更聰明.故選C.

點評 本文的意思比較簡單明確,在閱讀時應(yīng)注意商人的策略以及農(nóng)民的睿智.解答時,掌握全文的大意之后,細細閱材料后的問題,弄清每題要求后,帶著問題,再回到原文中去尋找、捕獲有關(guān)信息.
