【題目】 There was a farmer who always sold a pound of butter to a baker (面包師). At the same time he bought a pound of bread from the baker. One day the baker decided to weigh (稱的重量) the butter to see if he was getting a pound and he found that he was not. This made him very angry, so he took the farmer to the court (法庭).

The judge (法官) asked the farmer if he played tricks (詭計) on selling the butter to the baker. The farmer replied, “I don’t play any tricks. I only have a scale (天平).”

The judge asked, “Then how do you weigh the butter?”

The farmer replied, “My dear judge, I don’t know how much a pound of butter weighs, but every time the baker comes to buy butter, he will bring a pound of bread for me. Then I put it on the scale and give him the same weight in butter. If the butter is less than it should be, there must be something wrong with the baker.”

Sometimes we will get back what we give to others in our life. So please be nice to others if you want them to be nice to you.

【解析】

這篇短文給我們講述了一個農(nóng)民和一個面包師的故事,面包師給農(nóng)民一磅重的面包,農(nóng)民給面包師一磅重的奶油。一天面包師突然發(fā)現(xiàn)農(nóng)民給他的奶油不夠一磅重,于是他們?nèi)フ曳ü。農(nóng)民解釋說他稱出和面包一樣重的奶油給面包師。通過這個故事作者告訴我們,想要別人如何對待你,你就應(yīng)該怎樣對待別人。

1根據(jù)短文開頭“There was a farmer who always sold a pound of butter to a baker (面包師).”以及下文中“The judge (法官) asked the farmer if he played tricks (詭計) on selling the butter to the baker.”可知,短文中提到了農(nóng)民、面包師和法官三個人。故答案為Three.

2根據(jù)短文開頭“There was a farmer who always sold a pound of butter to a baker (面包師). At the same time he bought a pound of bread from the baker.”可知,農(nóng)民賣給面包師奶油,面包師賣給農(nóng)民面包。故答案為The farmer and the baker.

3根據(jù)短文第一段“One day the baker decided to weigh (稱的重量) the butter to see if he was getting a pound and he found that he was not. This made him very angry, so he took the farmer to the court (法庭).”可知,面包師發(fā)現(xiàn)農(nóng)民給他的奶油重量不夠,他認(rèn)為農(nóng)民愚弄了他,他很生氣,所以把農(nóng)民帶到了法庭上。故答案為Because the farmer made him angry./Because he thought the farmer played tricks on him.

4根據(jù)短文第四段“Then I put it on the scale and give him the same weight in butter.”可知,農(nóng)民把面包放在稱上,然后給面包師同樣重量的奶油。故答案為He put a pound of bread on the scale and gave him the same weight in butter.

5根據(jù)短文第四段農(nóng)民的解釋可知,他并沒有搗鬼,面包師給他多重的面包,他就給面包師同樣重量的奶油。故答案為No, he didn’t.

這是一篇夾敘夾議的文章,短文通過講述一個小故事,給我們闡述一個道理。故事內(nèi)容容易理解,從中得到的啟示也比較清楚。題型是任務(wù)型閱讀,以考查學(xué)生們對文章細節(jié)的理解為主。做題時,先通讀短文,了解文章的大意;然后根據(jù)題目所問,鎖定文章相關(guān)的句子,用正確的英語表達出來。答語要簡潔、清晰,切中要點。如第3小題,可由題目中take the famer to the court這個短語定位至文章第一段第二行“One day the baker decided to weigh (稱的重量) the butter to see if he was getting a pound and he found that he was not. This made him very angry, so he took the farmer to the court (法庭).”,理解這句話的意思后可知,面包師很生氣,所以將農(nóng)民帶上了法庭,答案為Because the farmer made him angry.;或用下文出現(xiàn)的短語play tricks on回答,面包師以為農(nóng)民騙了他,答案為Because he thought the farmer played tricks on him.
