Question

【题目】The young boy was sitting on the ground in the refugee(难民)camp playing with an empty tin．Other children were standing around watching him with envious eyes．

Envy? Of an empty tin?

This tin was indeed no worthless piece of trash—it was a splendid truck，complete with wheels and grille(铁栅) and floor．The vehicle even had remote control，a frayed piece of string from the“engine”to the hand of the owner．

The tin had lost all its original markings．But its first load had probably been sardines(沙丁鱼)．Later the tin had been left with other rubbish behind the refugee camp clinic，and the boy had found it on one of his daily expeditions into the“big world”．

For thousands of refugee children，a tin 1ike this rates high on their list of wants．It can be used for many purposes，as jewellery，as a toy，for drinking or as a medicine box．

Many refugee children would consider it the happiest day of their lives if they received a handful of marbles(弹珠) as a present．

They dream of gifts which children in developed countries take for granted．Maybe a book to read．or a pencil and an exercise book of their very own．

Their imagination can create toys，but it cannot create books．Someone else must provide them．A more costly and valuable gift they cannot imagine．

【3】D

【4】B

【解析】

试题分析：在难民营的孩子很少有玩具，哪怕是一个空的用了很久的破的沙丁鱼罐头瓶或者一颗子弹都是难得的玩具。

【1】C。推理判断题。从文章的They dream of gifts which children in developed countries take for granted．可知，如果能得到一本书，他们会非常激动的。

【2】A。细节理解题。从文章的Other children were standing around watching him with envious eyes．

可知，那个孩子在玩空的易拉罐时，其他的孩子都很羡慕。

【3】D。推理判断题。根据最后一段可知，孩子用想象力来创造玩具却不能创造出书。所以社会更应该给孩子们提供书籍。

【4】B。主旨大意题。根据全文大意可知，最佳题目是沙丁鱼罐头瓶是很宝贵的玩具。
