Question

19．Hobbs was an orphan （孤兒）．He worked in a factory and every day he got a little money．Hard work made him thin and weak．He wanted to borro w a lot of money to learn to paint pictures，but he did not think he could pay off the debts．

Answer 1

分析 本文敘述了Hobbs是個(gè)孤兒，自己在一家工廠上班，每天很辛苦，但是錢又少，他很想去學(xué)畫畫，這時(shí)叔叔的律師來給他提供1000美元，他起初不知該如何花這筆錢，他想了很多方法，律師告訴他他的叔叔要求他把花的每一筆錢都必須寫在紙上向他匯報(bào)．

解答 31．A  細(xì)節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)He wanted to borrow a lot of money to learn to paint pictures，他要借錢來學(xué)畫畫，故選A．
32．D  細(xì)節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)He didn't know where the money came from and how to spend it．既然不知道錢從哪里來，所以他感到的是吃驚，故選D．
33．B  細(xì)節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)Your uncle has said you must bring me a paper showing exactly what you did with his money，as soon as you have spent it．他被要求告訴律師他以后怎樣花每一筆錢的，故選B．
