　　名师点评

　　本文讲述了一个聪明的小男孩的故事。他要求加入一位富人的旅行，在得到同意后 选择担子时，看似愚蠢地选择了最大、最重的担子。而这恰恰就是他的聪明之处，因为他所挑的面包在途中是被边走边吃的，到达目的地时已所剩无几。阅读这故选foolish。篇文章时要注意句子的整体理解，如第8、9、10这三题。

　　答案简析

　　1. B。这位富人不仅带了东西去卖，而且带钱去买东西。解这道题时要注意将句中and前后的内容进行比较。

　　2. A。根据他的想法，他决定要带十个仆人。这件事完全可以由他自己决定，所以没有必要希望带或努力带，故C、D不合题意。

　　3. C。carry在句中意为携带、运送；take 意为带走；bring意为带来。本句意为他们将运送要卖的东西和在路上要吃的食物。下文的第10、11两题所在的句子也有提示。

　　4. B。参照第3题。

　　5. D。一个小男孩来找这位富人，要求和他们一起走，故选 the rich man。

　　6. C。参照第5题。

　　7. A。富人同意小男孩随行。

　　8. D。此句和上文是转折关系,意为但是你是我的仆人中最小的、最瘦的、最弱的一个，你不能挑重担，故选but。

　　9. C。参照第8题。

　　10. A。参照第8题。

　　11. B。此句意为你要选择挑最轻的担子，pick up意为捡起，不合文意，故选choose。

　　12. D。主人看到这个小仆人选择了最重的担子，感到他很愚蠢，故选foolish。。

　　13. B。听了主人的话，小男孩什么也没说，而是高兴地挑起了担子。

　　14. C。由于小男孩的聪明，除了他自己，其他仆人都累坏了。

　　15. D。Do you know why? 用在文章最后用来引出原因，告诉读者其中的奥妙。
