   A man is going to open a shop selling hats. He wanted a good sign to put over his shop. He wrote:

JOHN BROWN HATTER
Makes and Sells Hats
for Ready Money
   The first friend gave him the advice that the word “hatter” wasn’t needed. So John crossed out the word “HATTER” . Then he came to another friend for advice. This friend said that it was not polite to say “for ready money”. So he crossed out “for ready money”. The sign now said:
JOHN BROWN
Makes and Sells Hats
One day a friend was passing his shop. He saw this sign and said that when a man bought a hat, he didn’t care who made it. So John crossed out that word, too.
But when another friend saw “ John Brown Sells Hats”, he said , “ Of course you sell hats. No one thinks you give them away for free.” So, at last the sign read:
JOHN   BROWN
【小题1】 “ For ready money” means ___________________.
A. pay for the hat here when you buy it  
B. if you buy the hat you can pay for it in a few days
C. hats here are only for the people with much money
【小题2】How many friends gave John some advice on how to write the sign?
A. Three.                     B. Four.                    C. Two.
【小题3】___________________was crossed out first.
A. “ John Brown Sells Hats”        B. “Hatter”              C. “for Ready Money”
【小题4】 Each friend has___________________thought.
A. no                          B. the same                C. his own
【小题5】This story tells us that _____________________.
A. it isn’t possible to please everybody
B. it’s easy to sell hats
C. sellers must please everybody


【小题1】A
【小题1】B
【小题1】B
【小题1】C
【小题1】A

解析1. A 此题考的猜测词义。Ready是准备好的意思,字面上是说准备好了钱,也就是说准备好了买帽子时的钱,故选A。
2. B 细节题的。根据The first friend,another friend,One day a friend及But when another friend可知有四个朋友,故选B。
3. B 根据So John crossed out the word “HATTER”可知他第一个去掉的是Hatter,故选B。
4. C 通读全文,每个人的看法都不一样,故都有他们自己的想法,故选C。
5. A 推测题的考查。文章讲的是征求朋友的意见,每个人的看法不一样,故很难以满足每一个人。B只是反应的一个事实,C答案常识性错误,故选A。
