Question

【题目】Thanksgiving Day was near. The first grade teacher gave her class some fun homework---to draw a picture of something for which they were thankful.

Most of the class drew a turkey or other traditional things. But Douglas drew a different kind of picture. He drew a hand. Just an empty(空的) hand.

Douglas was a different boy. He was poor and unhappy. As other children played, Douglas was likely to stand close by the teacher’s side.

His classmates were surprised at his picture. One child guessed it was the hand of a farmer, because farmers raise turkeys. Others guessed it was the hand of God, for God feeds us.

The teacher asked him whose hand it was. The little boy said in a low voice, “It’s yours.”

She remembered the times she had taken his hand and walked with him here and there, as she had the other students. How often she said, “Take my hand, Douglas, we’ll go outside.” Or, “Let me show you how to hold your pencil.” Or, “Let’s do this together.” Douglas was most thankful for his teacher’s hand.

Tears came into the teacher’s eyes.

试题分析：感恩节就要来了，老师给学生们留了一个作业，让他们画一画自己最感恩的东西。很多同学都画了火鸡，而Douglas画的是一只手。同学们纷纷猜测这是谁的手，Douglas说他画的是老师的手，因为他对老师的手非常感恩。

【1】B词义猜测题。根据短文大意和划线的这个单词所在的句子because farmers raise turkeys 可知，在感恩节的时候，人们都会吃火鸡，而农民们就是饲养火鸡的。raise是动词，意思是饲养，故选B。

【2】C 细节理解题。根据短文中The teacher asked him whose hand it was. The little boy said in a low voice, “It’s yours.”可知，当老师问Douglas他画的是谁的手的时候，小男孩回答说他画的是老师的手。由此可知选C。

【3】B 细节理解题。根据短文中As other children played, Douglas was likely to stand close by the teacher’s side.可知，当其他孩子们都在玩的时候，Douglas 就挨着老师的边站着。由此可知选B。

【4】C 推理判断题。根据短文大意和短文的最后Tears came into the teacher’s eyes可知，Douglas画老师的手，因为他对老师心存感恩。当老师知道的时候，老师哭了，他是被感动了。故应选C。

【5】D 细节理解题。根据短文中Douglas was most thankful for his teacher’s hand.可知，Douglas 经常和老师呆在一起，老师手拉着他的手带他去散步，教他写字。Douglas对老师的手非常的感恩，因此他画了老师的手。由此可知应选D。
