Mr. Smith’s Two Sons

Mr. Smith has two sons. One is seven years old, and the other is five. One morning during the holidays, when he was cleaning the car, his younger son came and asked him for some money for sweets.

“Sweets are bad for your teeth.” Mr. Smith said.“Take these two oranges instead, and give one to

your elder brother. One of the oranges is quite a lot bigger than the other one, and as the small boy liked oranges very much, he kept that one for himself, and gave his brother the smaller one.

When the other boy saw that his brother had a much larger orange than his own, he said to him, “It’s selfish(自私的）to take the bigger one for yourself. If father had given me the oranges, I’d have given you the bigger one.

“ I know you would. ” answered his brother. “ That ’ s why I took it. ”

Answer 1

本文是記敘文，講述了兄弟兩個(gè)吃橘子的故事。

1.  F 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段第二句“One is seven years old, and the other is five. ”可知倆人相差2歲，故不是雙胞胎。

2.  cleaning the car細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段第二句中“…

when he was cleaning the car，his younger son came."’’可

知答案。

3.  He asked for some money for sweets.細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段第三句末“...asked him for some money for sweets”可知答案。

4.  The younger brother.推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段最后一句末“...and as the small boy liked oranges very much, he

kept that one for himself, and gave his brother the smaller one”可推斷小男孩喜歡橘子,所以自己留了個(gè)大的，給了哥哥小的。

5. 把那個(gè)大的（橘子）給自己是自私的。
