Passage 1
Frenchmen attach great importance to education. They regard the cultivation of children as asocial obligation. French education mixes warm romantic humor into its careful and severeeducation. I have ever heard such a story:
It took place in an ordinary French family. One day, when the boy was playing basketball, theball hit a vase offthe shelf with its mouth knocked ,off a large piece. The vase was an antique handeddown through generations from Bourbon Dynasty. To cover the great trouble, the boy glued thepieces together and put the vase back to its place panic-stricken.
That evening his mother noticed the change on it. At dinnertime, she asked her boy if he hadbroken the vase. Being scared of punishment, the boy said by a sudden inspiration that a cat jumpedin from the window and knocked the vase off the shelf. His mother was quite clear that her son waslying, for all the windows were closed before her leaving. However, she just said that it seemed itwas her carelessness not to have the window tightly closed.
Before going to bed, the boy found a note on his bed, on which he was asked to go to the study.
The boy had thought he had gotten by under false pretences, but then felt he couldn′t dodge themisfortune. Now that he had already lied, he made up his mind no matter what his mother said, hewould disavow to the end.
On seeing her son enter in fear, his mother took out a chocolate box and gave one piece of thechocolates to her son. "Baker, this chocolate is a reward for you, for you created a cat with yourspecial imagination." Then, she put another chocolate in his hand."This chocolate is a reward foryour ability to restore. But the glue you used is for restoring paper materials; to restore a vase needshigher special technique. Tomorrow, let′s bring the vase to the artists to see how they make acraftwork intact as it was." With that, she took the third chocolate, "The last chocolate stands for myapology. I shouldn′ t have laid a vase in a place where it could so easily fall down. I wish you hadn′ tbeen scared, my little sweetheart."
"But, Mom, I..." The boy tried to make something clear, but he awkwardly uttered nothing butsome words. "Our talk is over. Good night, Baker!" She gave a soft kiss on his forehead and walkedout of the study.
The following days were the same as before. The only change was that the boy had never told alie since then.
No scolding. It looks unimaginably queer. In fact, the three chocolates are the alarm in the boy′ sheart all the time. Sometimes, no punishment itself is a kind of punishment.
Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage
选项
A.The broken vase was beautifully restored.
B.The three chocolates served as a reminder.
C.The boy' s mother forgot to close the window.
D.What the boy said was well prepared and designed.
答案
B
解析
细节题。A项“破碎的花瓶被完美地修复了”,原文中母亲说虽然胶水把碎片几乎完美地粘在一起,但那胶水是用来修复纸张的;修复花瓶不仅需要更强有力的胶水,还需要很高的技巧。C项“小男孩的母亲忘记关窗户了”,原文第三段最后两句讲小男孩的母亲很清楚孩子在撒谎,因为她把所有的窗户都关好后才离开家的,然而面对孩子的谎言,母亲只是说,看来是她疏忽了,没有关好窗户。D项“小男孩说的话是精心准备和设计好的”。原文第三段第三句讲他是灵机一动想出来的。以上三项均与原文不符。B项与最后一段中“the three chocolates are the alarm in the boy’s heart allthe time”对应.意思是这三块巧克力一直在小男孩的心里,时时刻刻提醒他要保持诚实。故选B。
