【文章大意】一个圣徒从河里拯救一只蝎子时,先后被蜇了两次,但他仍旧努力把它救了出来。

这让一位路人非常不理解。

这位圣徒告诉他:

作为一个圣徒,我的职责是向所有的生命传达爱,拯救其他的生命是我最大的幸福。

推理判断题。

根据第一段可知,从前,有一个圣徒,他徒步行走在前往喜马拉雅山的路上。

途经一条小河,当他正要踏入小河时,一只挣扎想逃离水面的蝎子映入眼帘。

由此可判断出答案为C。

细节理解题。

根据第三段中的However,itpanickedandstungagain.可知,当时是因为惊慌失措,蝎子才对他进行攻击。

故答案为A。

3.Howdidthemannearbyfeelatthesaint’sbehaviourofsavingthescorpion?

A.Happy.B.Angry.

C.Frightened.D.Puzzled.

【解析】选D。

观点态度题。

根据第七段内容:

首先,拯救一只蝎子是没有必要的,对谁来说这都是没有好处的。

其次,您救它一次就够了。

令人惊讶的是,即便它蜇了您,您却仍旧努力去救

它。

这是为什么?

由此可判断出他对圣徒的行为感到迷惑不解。

故答案为D。
