Once upon a time, there was a spider(蜘蛛) with the name Anansi. He knew that he was clever but he also knew he wasn't wise. He didn’t like this,but he did not know what to do. One day he had an idea. He went around the village with a basket and asked each person to give him some of their wisdom. All people laughed at Anansi because they knew that he needed wisdom the most. So each person put a bit in his basket and wished him good luck.
Soon his basket was full,but Anansi was worried that his neighbors might be jealous of his wisdom and take it from him. He decided to hide it at the top of a tall tree. When he had tied the basket to the front part of his body,he tried to climb the tree,but it was too difficult. He tried again and again without success.
Then his youngest son walked by. “What are you doing,father?” he asked and Anansi told him.“Why don’t you carry the basket on your back instead?” his son said.
Anansi put the basket on his back and climbed the tree easily,but he wasn’t happy.“1 walked all over the village and collected so much wisdom that I am the wisest person ever,but my baby son is still wiser than me. Take back your wisdom!”he said. And he threw the basket of wisdom into the air and went home. And that's how wisdom went all over the world.
小題1:Anansi went around the village because        .
A.he knew he was very clever
B.he wanted to show his good luck

小題5:The best title for the passage would be        .

小題1:D
小題2:C
小題3:D
小題4:B
小題5:A

試題分析:這是一個(gè)寓言故事。故事講述了一個(gè)叫Anansi的蜘蛛想變成一個(gè)聰明智慧的蜘蛛,于是他拿著個(gè)籃子滿村轉(zhuǎn)讓人們給他一些他們的智慧。人們把智慧裝滿了他的籃子,他想把裝滿智慧的籃子放到樹梢上,兒子告訴他背著籃子爬樹更容易,他認(rèn)為這些智慧沒有用,于是把裝滿智慧的籃子灑向空中。這就是為什么全世界到處都充滿了智慧的原因。
小題1:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)He went around the village with a basket and asked each person to give him some of their wisdom.(他拿著個(gè)籃子滿村轉(zhuǎn),要求每人要給他一些他們的智慧。)可知選D(他認(rèn)為自己不明智)。
小題2:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)He went around the village with a basket and asked each person to give him some of their wisdom.(他拿著個(gè)籃子滿村轉(zhuǎn),要求每人要給他一些他們的智慧。)可知選C。(他想從村民那里得來智慧。)
小題3:詞義推測(cè)題。根據(jù)該句的意思(Anansi擔(dān)心,他的鄰居可能會(huì)嫉妒他的智慧,從他這里拿走它。)可知選 D(it指代前面的名詞wisdom)。
小題4:主題大意題。通讀全文可知,這是一個(gè)寓言故事,故選B。
小題5:主旨?xì)w納題。通讀全文可知,文章的核心詞是Anansi和wisdom,故選 A(最佳題目是Anansi的智慧 )。

I think the most terrible thing in life for my little brother is getting up in the morning. He is almost sick when my mother calls, "Herbert! It's seven o'clock! Get up!"
Herbert answers, "I'm coming!" and goes right back to sleep. I'm not at all like my brother. I don't like to go to bed at night but I don't mind getting up in the morning. I usually wake up before my mother calls me. I jump out of bed and go into the bathroom to take a shower. I get dressed, brush my teeth, comb my hair, and get ready to go downstairs for breakfast as soon as my mother calls.
But not Herbert. He just sleeps. A military band (軍樂隊(duì)) in our bedroom could not wake him up. I call him and say, "Get up! Mum will be up here to pull you out of bed if you don't get up immediately!"
But he just sleeps. After calling a few more times my mother has to come upstairs and pull Herbert out of bed. It's that way every day with my little brother. Perhaps some day he'll learn to get up on time, but I really don't think so.
小題1:The most terrible thing in life for my little brother is going to school. 
小題2:I usually jump out of bed and go into the bathroom for a shower before my mother calls.
小題3:When mother calls, Herbert doesn't answer and still stays in bed.
小題4:Sometimes we have to send for a military band to wake Herbert up.
小題5:The writer thinks some day Herbert will learn to get up on time.
