Question

【題目】A poor traveler arrived in a small village. He had no food or money and had not eaten anything in days. The one thing he did have was a cooking pot.

He built a small cooking fire, placed his pot on it, and poured in some water. When a few villagers asked what he was doing, he replied that he was making stone soup, which was an ancient tasty recipe(食譜). He then dropped in a smooth, round stone into the pot.

As the soup warmed, the traveler told the villagers stories of his travels and the exciting things he'd seen. He tasted his soup and said it was coming along nicely, but a bit of salt would bring out the flavor(風(fēng)味). One curious villager went into her home and returned with some salt for the soup.

A few more villagers walking by stopped to see what was going on when they heard the traveler speaking. The traveler told more stories and said that a couple of carrots or onions would be a nice addition to the already delicious soup. So, another villager said he could give a few carrots. Finally, the soup was ready and everyone enjoyed the tasty meal prepared for them from just a pot.

【解析】

本文是一個(gè)小故事。講述一個(gè)貧窮的旅行者來(lái)到了一個(gè)小村莊。他沒(méi)有食物或錢(qián)，幾天沒(méi)吃東西了。他只有一只鍋。他生了火，把鍋放在上面，然后倒了一些水。他說(shuō)他正在做石湯，這是一個(gè)古老的美味食譜。然后他把一塊光滑的圓石掉進(jìn)鍋里。旅行者向村民們講述了他旅行的故事和他所看到的激動(dòng)人心的事情。他嘗了嘗湯，說(shuō)湯很好喝，不過(guò)加一點(diǎn)鹽就會(huì)有味道。一個(gè)村民拿了一些鹽回來(lái)做湯。又說(shuō)放幾根胡蘿卜或洋蔥會(huì)更好喝。另一個(gè)村民給他一些胡蘿卜。最后，湯做好了，每個(gè)人都很喜歡吃用這口鍋為他們準(zhǔn)備的美味佳肴。

【1】句意：這個(gè)可憐的旅行者只有一塊大石頭�？疾榧�(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段最后一句The one thing he did have was a cooking pot.（他只有一樣?xùn)|西，那就是一只鍋。）可知此句錯(cuò)誤，答案是B。

【2】句意：旅行者把一塊圓石放進(jìn)鍋里做石湯。考查細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段第二和三句When a few villagers asked what he was doing, he replied that he was making stone soup, which was an ancient tasty recipe(食譜). He then dropped in a smooth, round stone into the pot.（當(dāng)幾個(gè)村民問(wèn)他正在做什么，他回答說(shuō)他正在做石湯，這是一個(gè)古老的美味食譜。然后他把一塊光滑的圓石掉進(jìn)鍋里。）可知此句是正確的，答案是A。

【3】句意：第一個(gè)好奇的村民回家后拿了一些胡蘿卜來(lái)喝湯�？疾榧�(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段第3句One curious villager went into her home and returned with some salt for the soup.（一個(gè)好奇的村民走進(jìn)她的家，拿了一些鹽回來(lái)做湯。）可知“第一個(gè)好奇的村民回家后拿了一些鹽”，此句錯(cuò)誤，答案是B。

【4】句意：旅行者得到了湯，卻什么也沒(méi)付。考查細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文敘述可知第一個(gè)村民拿了一些鹽回來(lái)做湯，另一個(gè)村民說(shuō)他可以給一些胡蘿卜。可知“旅行者得到了湯，卻什么也沒(méi)付。”故此句是正確的，答案是A。

【5】句意：從這個(gè)故事中，我們可以了解到這個(gè)人非常聰明�？疾榧�(xì)節(jié)理解題。這個(gè)人很貧窮。他沒(méi)有食物或錢(qián)，幾天沒(méi)吃東西了。他只有個(gè)鍋。這個(gè)人做石頭湯，引來(lái)村名觀看，說(shuō)這是古老美味食譜。他講述故事和旅行見(jiàn)聞，他嘗了嘗湯，說(shuō)湯很好喝，不過(guò)加一點(diǎn)鹽、一些胡蘿卜等就會(huì)更好喝。村民給他拿鹽、胡蘿卜等�？芍�這個(gè)人非常聰明。故答案是A。
