Question

【題目】 A group of frogs were traveling through the woods, and two of them fell into a deep hole. When the other frogs saw how deep the hole was, they told the two frogs that they were hopeless to be alive. But the two frogs didn’t believe it. 【1】 The other frogs kept telling them to stop and wait for their death.【2】 Soon he died.

The other frog continued to jump as hard as he could. Once again, the crowd of frogs shouted at him and told him to stop and just wait to die【3】

When he got out, the other frogs said, ＂Didn’t you hear us?＂ The frog explained to them that he was deaf.【4】

The story teaches us two lessons.【5】 An encouraging word to someone who is down can cheer him up and help him make it through difficulties. Secondly, a destructive (消極的) word to someone who is down can make him give up and die. So be careful of what you say.

Speak life to those who cross your path. It is sometimes hard to understand that an encouraging word can go such a long way. It is great for a person to take the time to encourage another.

閱讀文章并根據(jù)上下文用下面方框內(nèi)的適當(dāng)選項(xiàng)補(bǔ)全短文。其中有一項(xiàng)是多余的。

A. Finally, one of the two frogs gave up and fell down.

C. Firstly, there is power of life and death in the tongue.

D. So he thought they were encouraging him at that time.

E. They tried to jump up out of the hole with their efforts.

F. Then the two frogs began to stop jumping.

Answer 1

【答案】

【1】E

【2】A

【3】B

【4】D

【5】C

【解析】

本文通過(guò)青蛙的故事告訴我們兩個(gè)道理：一是語(yǔ)言中蘊(yùn)含著生與死的力量；二是破壞性詞的人能讓他放棄和死亡，所以你說(shuō)話要小心。

【1】句意：它們努力想從洞里跳出來(lái)。

根據(jù)“But the two frogs didn’t believe it.”可知，兩人不相信其他青蛙所說(shuō)，所以努力想從洞里跳出來(lái)，故選E。

【2】句意：最后，兩只青蛙中的一只放棄了，掉了下來(lái)。

根據(jù)后文“Soon he died.”可知，一只青蛙放棄了然后死掉了，故選A。

【3】句意：但是它跳得更用力了，最后他成功了。

根據(jù)后文“When he got out…”可知，這只青蛙最后成功出來(lái)了，故選B。

【4】句意：所以它認(rèn)為它們當(dāng)時(shí)是在鼓勵(lì)它。

根據(jù)“The frog explained to them that he was deaf.”可知，這只青蛙以為其他青蛙在鼓勵(lì)他所以他充滿信心，成功跳了出來(lái)，故選D。

【5】句意：首先，語(yǔ)言中蘊(yùn)含著生與死的力量。

根據(jù)后文“An encouraging word to someone who is down can cheer him up and help him make it through difficulties.”可知，此處表示“語(yǔ)言中蘊(yùn)含著生與死的力量”，故選C。
