【回答】
本文講述了一個國王為了考驗兩個人,讓他們往籃子裏打水,忠誠的人不遺餘力地往空籃子裏打水,直到國王歸來。結果不僅獲得了一枚金戒指,而且得到了國王的信任。
1. C【解析】。這裏did和finished都表示完成了這項工作,而給籃子裝滿水是不可能的,國王應在兩人開始打水後不久離開,所以應選began。
2.B【解析】往籃子裏盛滿水是永遠不可能的,故選擇never。
3.A【解析】兩者中的另一個用the other加名詞來表示。
4.C【解析】the first man想離開,因為他覺得自己乾的是無用功,故選擇nothing意為“從事某項工作”。
5.D【解析】pick up意為“撿起”,pick away意為“放好”,take away意為“取走”,而throw down意為“扔掉、丟棄”,比較貼近文意,為正確選項。
6.A【解析】。根據文意,另一個人一直在打水,故選water。
7.B【解析】不停地打水必然會導致井空,故選empty。
8.B【解析】while引導從句時,從句應用延續*動詞,before和since不符合文意,as soon as…表示“一……就”為正確選項。
9.A 【解析】國王是因為這個誠實的人所做過的事情而表揚他,所以應用完成時態have done。
10.D國王講的最後一句話是含有 “so……that”結構的複合句,意為“如此……以致”故選that。
