Question

【題目】The following is a true story. It happened in a small village in Australia, where some dangerous animals live in the forest.

Lisa, a 33-year-old mother, went to cook lunch in the kitchen, her 3-year-old son, Barney, playing by himself in the garden.

Suddenly, a loud cry of Barney came into the mother’s ears. Lisa rushed into the garden in a hurry and found a big snake entwining（纏繞）the little boy with its terrible body and trying to eat the boy. It was a boa（蟒）. Lisa was terrified and quite angry. She decided to save her son from the boa’s mouth.

It was great mother’s love that made Lisa forget what she was facing. She took up a hoe（鋤）from the ground and beat the boa as hard as she could.

One…two…with the hoe, Lisa beat the boa time and time again, but useless. The little boy’s voice and breath were getting weaker and weaker. Lisa’s heart was broken and she got nearly mad.

Suddenly Lisa put away the hoe and threw herself to the boa, opened her mouth and bit into the boa’s back. The boa was so badly hurt that it let go of Barney and moved into the forest hurriedly. It had never known how a woman had such terrible sharp teeth. Soon the boa was found dead in the forest.

試題分析：這篇文章講的是一位媽媽看到自己的兒子被蟒蛇纏住并快被吃掉，情急之下用牙咬住蟒蛇的脖子迫使蛇松開，兒子最終獲救，這也詮釋了媽媽偉大的愛的力量。

【1】A細節(jié)理解題。根據文中描述Lisa rushed into the garden in a hurry and found a big snake entwining（纏繞）the little boy with its terrible body and trying to eat the boy. 可知當她沖進花園時，Lisa的兒子被蟒蛇纏住有失去生命的危險，故選A。

【2】B詞義猜測題。根據語境Lisa 看到是蟒蛇纏住兒子她當時應該是很驚恐，故選B。

【3】A細節(jié)理解題。根據文中描述The little boy’s voice and breath were getting weaker and weaker.可知是她兒子越來越虛弱，并不是Lisa，所以A的描述是錯誤的。

【4】B主旨大意題。文中主要是詮釋偉大的母愛，故選B。
