内容简介：本文通过一个简单的故事阐明了这样一个遒理：不要把看似没用的东西随手扔掉，它们以后可能会对你很有用。

1. A由下文"I do not want to eat those apples..."可知，穷人在路上见到的是一些苹果。

2. A say to oneself意为"自言自语"。本句主语是he,其反身代词是himself。

3. D 食物是用来"吃"的，故应用eat。

4. B由后面的"throws them into a ditch."可知，此处指他捡起苹果，把它们扔进了水沟。

pick up意为"捡起"。

5. C由下一句中的"There is no bridge over the river..."可知，他来到了河边，故此处应用river。

6. B由上下文可知，此处是指他今天"不能"去拜访那个富人了。

7. D由上一句"The river is wide and deep."可知，河又宽又深。由此推断，过河是危险的(dangerous) 。

8. C由后面的"…he feels very hungry."可知,他没有东西可以吃，故此处应用nothing。

9. B此处是指他到了他上一次扔苹果的地方。throw away意为"扔掉"。

10. D look at意为"看";look after意为"照顾"；look up意为"查找"；look for意为"寻找"。此处是指他跳进沟里去"找"之前扔掉的苹果。
