【答案与解析】
1.选C。
文章第1段说Tommy数学学不好,其父母想尽了一切办法都不奏效,最后将他送进了一所天主教的教会学校。
2.选D。
认真阅读第2段前面几句话,并注意以下信息:
Afterthefirstday,littleTommycamehome…didn’tkisshismotherhello…washardatwork…withoutaword.可知答案应选D。
3.选A。
根据文章大意和Finally,littleTommybroughthomehisreportcard.Hequietlyputitonthetableandwentuptohisroomandhitthebooks这个句子的语境,可知hitthebooks的意思是“用功”。
4.选B。
Tommy学习一直不用功,但自从进了这所catholicschool之后,情况就不一样了——整天都发狠读书,结果数学考试也得了A。
这是为什么呢?
文章在最后道出了其原因:
Well,onthefirstdayofschool,whenIsawthatmannailed(钉)totheplussign(加号),Iknewtheyweren’tjoking.由此可知,Tommy是担心学习不用功会被钉在十字架上。
5.选B。
Tommy把themannailedtotheplussign误解为“学习不用功的结果”,从而一改自己原来不好学的不良习惯,很快就把数学成绩赶了上去。
可见,误解有时也可以起到好的效果。
