Tom lost his work last year and he didn’t find a job from then on. He was very worried. He had a big family to feed. His sons and daughters were often hungry. His wife was angry with him and she went away from his home.
One evening at about six, Tom went into the church (教堂) with a turkey(火鸡)in his hands. “ I took a turkey from a house, my pastor (牧师),” Tom said, “Would you like to take it away and forgive me?”
“ I won’t take the turkey away,” said the pastor, “Since you have known your fault, (错误) you must give it back to the host.”
“ I have tried,” cried Tom, “ But the host didn’t agree to take it back.”
“ I believe you,” said the pastor “You can take the turkey home and give it to your children.”
Tom thanked the pastor and went away.
When the evening prayer (祈祷) was over, the pastor went into his room. He looked for his turkey here and there but he didn’t find it.
小题1:Tom was worried because.
小题2:How did his children feel?
小题3:Tom has sons and daughters                  , but he lost his job. (根据短文填入适当的词语)

小题1:he lost his work last year and he didn’t find a job.
小题2:They felt hungry.
小题3:to feed
小题4:return (归还)
小题5:He took it from the pastor.

试题分析:这篇短文中的汤姆失业了,因为有孩子需要喂养,因此他拿了牧师的一只火鸡。为了得到心灵的安慰,就去教堂巧言获得牧师的原谅。最后牧师才发现,原来汤姆拿的是自己的火鸡。
小题1:根据短文第一段Tom lost his work last year and he didn’t find a job from then on. He was very worried.描述,可知汤姆担忧的原因是,他去年失业了,并且还没有找到工作。故答:he lost his work last year and he didn’t find a job.
小题2:根据第一段His sons and daughters were often hungry. 描述,可知他的孩子们经常感到饿。故答:They felt hungry.
小题3:根据短文第一段描述,可知本句指的是,他有儿女需要喂养。动词不定式做宾语表示具体的将要进行的动作,故填:to feed,喂养,养育。
小题4:联系前文描述,可知此处牧师说的是,你必须把它归还给它的主人。Must是情态动词,故填原形动词return (归还)
小题5:根据短文最后一段描述,可知汤姆拿的是这个牧师的火鸡。故答:He took it from the pastor.
点评:本题中个别小题不能直接从文中找到答案,需要自己根据相关内容分析总结。一定要弄懂全文后再动手解答问题。书写答案时,注意首字母大写,因为是回答问句,即使只有一个单词也是一个句子。为避免不必要的错误,只要能使用原文的就尽量使用原文回答问题,即使自己总结也尽量使用短句。同时并注意人称和数的变化。

  I was in my third year of teaching writing at Ralph High School in New York, when one of my students, 15-year-old Mikey, gave me a note from his mother. It explained his absence from class the day before:
"Dear Mr. McCort, Mikey's grandmother, who is eighty years of age, fell down the stairs from too much coffee and I kept Mikey at home to take care of her and his baby sister so I could go to my job. Please excuse Mikey and he'll do his best in the future. P.S. His grandmother is OK."
I had seen Mikey writing the note at his desk. l said nothing. Most parental-excuse notes I received were penned by my students. The writers of those notes didn't realize that honest excuse notes were usually boring: "Peter was late because the alarm clock didn't go off."
The students always said it was hard putting 200 words together on any subject, but when they produced excuse notes, they were excellent. So I decided to give the first class to study the art of the excuse note.
“Today I'd like you to write 'An Excuse Note from Adam to God' or 'An Excuse Note from Eve to God'. "Heads went down. Pens raced across paper. They had to be asked to go to lunch by their friends.
The next day everyone had excuse notes. Heated discussions followed. But suddenly I saw the headmaster at the door. He entered the classroom and walked up and down, looking at papers, and then said. "I'd like you to see me in my office." My heart sank,
When I stepped into his office, he came to shake my hand and said, "I just want to tell you that lesson, that task, was great. Those kids were writing on the college level. Thank you."
小题1:What did the writer do when he found the students dishonest?
A.He reported them to the headmaster.
B.He lectured them hard on honesty.
C.He had them take notes-n class.
D.He helped improve their writing skills.
小题2:We can learn that when Mikey was absent from the class, he was____.
A.somewhere enjoying himself
B.taking care of his baby sister
C.looking after his grandmother
D.studying the art of the excuse note
