a. because the contractor usually paid him little. b. because he was in poor health. c. because he wanted to live a peaceful life with his family. d. because the contractor thought he couldnt build good houses.答案与解析c细节理解题。根据第一段第二句可以判断，这位木匠是想回家同妻子和家人享受悠闲的生活。2before retiring, the carpenter was asked to _. a. build a house for himself b. help the contractor build another house c. hunt for a good worker for his employer d. hand over all his paycheck答案与解析b细节理解题。根据文章第二段可以判断出承包者请木匠帮忙建造最后一所房屋。 3. it is obvious that the carpenter built his last house _. a. wisely b. carelessly c. carefully d. happily答案与解析b推理判断题。根据文章第二段后三句话的暗示，木匠做工粗糙，选用劣质的建筑材料，因此他是马马虎虎建造的房屋。4the writer writes this story to tell us _. a. we should build wisely the “house” we will live in tomorrow b. we should learn from the carpenter c. the carpenter was very clever to finish his career d. how cruel the contractor was to the carpenter答案与解析a主旨大意题。文章最后一段才是作者写作的真正意图，人们应该明智地构造自己的房屋，即自己的未来。 5.why does the writer say “it was an unfortunate way to end a dedicated career.”？a. he thinks the carpenter should have built the house better.b. he thinks the carpenter wasnt able to work as usual.c. he thinks the carpenter was too old to work any more.d. he thinks the carpenter would be poor after he retired.答案与解析a句义理解题。文章第一段叙述木匠是一个好木匠，本应该建造出好的房屋。但由于态度不端正，他建造了最差的、作为自己最后的一座房屋。这对他当然是一件不幸的事情。故此答案为a项。brecently, in the hope of earning both money and social experience, i became a doortodoor salesman. i once read a saying: “if somebody wants something of you, you will be treated as warmly as spring, but if they dont, you may be treated as coldly as winter.” you may consider it an exaggeration, but if you are a salesman, it is clearly correct. you would never have found it to be so true if you hadnt been a salesman. you neednt stand doubtful looks and unfriendly views; you neednt listen to something completely wrong and nod to say that it was quite right; you neednt always keep patience and smile; you neednt repeat the same sentences over again; you neednt talk to somebody you dislike. i did this work for a month; then i decided to give it up. in spite of the above reasons, i found i was paying too much attention to the job and thus sacrificing my study time. the latest test result proved that my grades were getting lower. even worse, i hadnt enough time to join my classmates in college activities. sometimes i felt lonely and unhappy because of both my study and my parttime job. now i dont think it is worth doing such a thing even though i was earning money at great cost. newspapers and magazines often publish stories about good students who do parttime work and keep high scores in class. but according to my experience, parttime work can have some strong bad effects on study.most students dont see the relationship between study and work in a correct way. in my opinion, if it isnt a must for money reasons, students should be cautious about taking up a parttime job. in western countries even the children of very rich families take part in hard jobs during the summer vacation. 6which fact is not a reason that caused the writer to give up his parttime job? a. too much attention to it and his grades getting lower. b. he often missed some college activities. c. sometimes he felt tired and unhappy. d. it
