【解析】

試題分析：一個(gè)農(nóng)民被抓進(jìn)了監(jiān)獄。有一天，他收到了一封他妻子的信。“我很擔(dān)心我們的農(nóng)場(chǎng)，”她寫道。“是時(shí)候種植土豆了，但是，我不能將所有的土地松土。”農(nóng)夫想了，然后有了一個(gè)主意。說(shuō)農(nóng)場(chǎng)的土地中有金子，不用她挖了，最后是監(jiān)獄的看守們將土地松好。

1.。短文中沒有提到這位農(nóng)夫?yàn)槭裁慈プ隼�。故選C。

2.“I am worried about our farm,” she wrote.句意：“我很擔(dān)心我們的農(nóng)場(chǎng),”她寫道。明確答案為第二項(xiàng)。故選B

3.Don’t dig the fields.句意：不要挖土地。同時(shí)考查固定短語(yǔ)：tell sb. not to do sth.告訴某人不要做某事。故選A

4.Don’t dig the fields. This is where my gold(金子) is. Don’t plant potatoes until I come home.句意：不要挖土地。這里有我的金子。直到我回家才能種植土豆。結(jié)合選項(xiàng)，第四項(xiàng)符合，他們都想去挖到金子。故選D

5.

考點(diǎn)：故事類短文閱讀。
