Question

Each morning a rich man found a poor man sitting on a park bench (長(zhǎng)凳). The poor man always sat there, looking at the big hotel in which the rich man lived. One day the rich man got out of his car and said to the poor man, “Excuse me, but I just want to know why you sit here and look at my hotel every morning.” “Sir”, said the poor man, “I am a failure (失敗者). I have no money, no family, no home. I sleep on this bench, and every night I dream that one day I'll sleep in that hotel.” The rich man said, “Tonight your dream will come true. I'll pay for the best room in that hotel for you for a whole month.

A few days later, the rich man went by the poor man's room to ask him how he was enjoying himself. To his surprise, he found that the man had moved out of the hotel, back to his park bench. When the rich man asked why, the poor man said, “you see, when I am down here sleeping on my bench, I dream I'm up there, in that big hotel. It's a wonderful dream. But when I was up there, I dreamed I was back to this cold bench. It was a terrible dream, and I couldn't get any sleep at all.”

【解析】

試題分析：故事講述一個(gè)窮人與一個(gè)富人之間的一個(gè)小事情。一天，富人發(fā)現(xiàn)一個(gè)窮人住在長(zhǎng)椅上，并且問他，為什么總是看他的旅館。窮人說，住進(jìn)這個(gè)旅館是他的夢(mèng)想。富人讓他住進(jìn)了這個(gè)旅館，但是不久他又搬回了長(zhǎng)椅上，原來是在旅館中睡不著，害怕會(huì)回到長(zhǎng)椅上。

1.1】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。問題：這個(gè)窮人見到富人之前，他住在哪里？分析原文：I sleep on this bench, and every night I dream that one day I’ll sleep in that hotel.句意：我睡在長(zhǎng)椅上，每天夜里，我夢(mèng)想著能夠住進(jìn)那個(gè)旅店。明確了他是住在長(zhǎng)椅上。故選C

2.2】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。問題：這個(gè)窮人坐在長(zhǎng)椅上并且做什么？分析原文：The poor man always sat there, looking at the big hotel in which the rich man lived. 句意：這個(gè)窮人一直坐在這，看著富人住的旅館。結(jié)合選項(xiàng)為第二項(xiàng)符合題意。故選B

3.3】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。問題：每個(gè)晚上，這個(gè)窮人的夢(mèng)想是什么？聯(lián)系上文已經(jīng)明確他是想能夠住在這個(gè)漂亮的旅館里。因此選擇第一項(xiàng)。故選A

4.4】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。問題：窮人為什么從這個(gè)旅館中搬出去了？分析原文：when I’m sleeping on my bench, I dreamed I am there, in the big hotel. It’s a wonderful dream. But when I was there I dreamed I was back to this cold bench. It was a terrible dream, and I couldn’t get any sleep at all.句意：這是窮人講述從旅館搬出去的原因，當(dāng)我睡在長(zhǎng)椅上，我的夢(mèng)想是去住在旅館，它是美夢(mèng)。但是當(dāng)我在旅館中時(shí)，我的夢(mèng)是回到長(zhǎng)椅上，那是一個(gè)可怕的夢(mèng)。所以他不想居住在一個(gè)好的房間中，他害怕。故選D
