An old man was fishing on the bank of a river. A child came to see him fishing. The old man was really good at fishing and it didn't take long for him to catch a full basket of fish. The old man saw that the child was very cute,and he wanted to give her a whole basket of fish. But the child shook her head. The old man was surprised and asked, “Why don't you want the fish?”

   The child answered ,“ I want the fishing rod in your hands. ”

   The old man asked, “Why do you want the rod?”

    “It doesn’t take long to eat all the fish in a basket. But if I have the  shing rod,I can go fishing by myself and I won’t be afraid of not having any more fish to eat. ”

    I think you will certainly say that the child is very smart. Wrong!If she doesn’t know how to fish,she can not have fish to eat,even though she has the fishing rod. It's useless to only have a fishing rod. Fishing skills are the most important,not the fishing rod.

    Too many people think that if they have a “fishing rod” in their life,they will no longer fear (害怕) the wind and rain. They are just like the child,who thought that if she had a fishing rod,she would have fish to eat.

1. The old man was fishing on the bank of .

   A. a river   B. a lake

   C. a pool   D. a stream

2. Why did the child refuse (拒絕) the fish the old man gave her?

   A. Because she didn't like fish.

   B. Because she wanted his fishing rod.

   C. Because the old man had few fish.

   D. Because she wanted to learn fishing skills.

3. The writer thought the child was after she explained why she didn't want the fish.

   A. smart   B. hard-working

   C. silly (傻的)   D. creative (有創(chuàng)造力的)

4. The article mainly tells us .

   A. if you have a “fishing rod” in your life,you won’t be afraid of anything

   B. if you have a fishing rod,you’ll have a lot of fish to eat

   C. “ fishing skills ” are more important than “ the fishing rod” in life

   D. “the fishing rod” is more important than the fish that people catch

5. What is the best title for the article?

   A. The Fishing Rod

   B. The Fishing Man

   C. The Fishing Girl

   D. The Fishing Experience

導(dǎo)讀本文講述了發(fā)生在一位釣魚的老人和一個小女孩之間 故事。故事通過小女孩要魚還是要魚竿之事得出了如下結(jié)論:如果只要魚竿而不懂得釣魚的技術(shù),也是沒有用的。 詳析

1. A細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由第一句可知,老人是在河邊釣魚的。

2. B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由第二、三段可知,小女孩不要魚而是想

要釣魚竿。

3. C細(xì)節(jié)理解題。作者在第五段的第一、二句中表明了自

己的觀點,他認(rèn)為小女孩這種做法是不聰明的。

4. C主旨大意題。作者在第五段的最后提出:釣魚技術(shù)才

是最重要的,而不是魚竿,結(jié)合第六段可知,答案為C.

5. A主旨大意題。文章從第二段開始出現(xiàn)了魚竿,然后圍

繞魚竿與釣魚技術(shù)展開了議論,最后得出的結(jié)論是:只 有魚竿而不懂得技術(shù)也是徒然的。由此可知,本文的 標(biāo)題應(yīng)當(dāng)是“魚竿”。

a full basket of fish 滿滿一籃子魚

cute a辦可愛的 fishing rod釣魚竿

障礙句分析

If she doesn't know how to fish,she can not have fish to eat,even though she has the fishing rod.如果她不懂得如何 捕魚,即使她有魚竿,她也不會有魚吃。

本句是一個含有狀語從句的復(fù)合句。

If she... to fish是 —個條件狀語從句,she can not... eat是主句,其中的even thougrod又是一個讓步狀語從句。
