Question

【題目】

A young boy was hungry for success. For him, winning was everything.

One day, the boy was preparing himself for a running competition in his small village. He was to compete with two other young boys. A large crowd gathered there to watch, including a wise old man.

The race began. With his strength and power, the boy easily took the lead. The crowd cheered and waved. The little boy felt proud and important. However, the wise man remained still and calm.

"Another race, another race!" yelled the little boy. The wise old man stepped forward and presented the little boy with two new challengers- an old lady and a blind man.

The race started and the boy was the only one to cross the finishing line. The little boy raised his arms happily. The crowd, however, was silent.

"Race again," said the wise man. "This time, all three of you finish together. "

The little boy thought a little, stood in between the blind man and the old lady, and then took them by the hand. The race began and the little boy walked slowly to the finishing line and crossed it. The crowd cheered and waved. The wise man smiled, too.

"Which one of us is the crowd cheering for?" asked the little boy.

"For this race, you have won much more than in any other race you've ever run before." said the wise man. "For this race, the crowd cheered not for any winner!"

這篇短文主要介紹了一個渴望成功的男孩，認為獲勝對于他就是一切。在一次賽跑比賽中，一個明智的人通過讓他和老人和盲人賽跑，使他明白人們不僅僅為獲勝者喝彩，更為那些懂得幫助別人的人歡呼。

【1】細節(jié)理解題。根據上文The little boy felt proud and important. 小男孩感到驕傲和重要。故選C。

【2】詞句猜測題。Shouted loudly高聲呼叫；Sang quietly安靜地唱；Cried sadly傷心地哭，根據上文the boy easily took the lead…The little boy felt proud and important. 可知那個男孩輕而易舉地領先了……小男孩感到驕傲和重要。所以推斷出小男孩高聲大喊，還想再來一局比賽，故選A。

【3】推理判斷題。通讀全文可知，第一場他與另外兩個小男孩比賽，他取得了勝利。第二場他與一個老太太和一個盲人比賽，還是他取得了勝利。第三場還是與這個老太太和這個盲人比賽，但是他與他們手牽手完成了比賽，可知他參加了三場比賽。故選B。

【4】推理判斷題。根據上文The little boy thought a little, stood in between the blind man and the old lady, and then took them by the hand.小男孩想了想，站在盲人和老太太之間，然后牽著他們的手�？芍�小男孩在想怎樣一起完成比賽，故選B。
