孩砍柴是為了謀生。故C。

"Yes,yes,thatismine,"shoutedtheboyexcitedly.（最后，老人拿起一把舊鐵斧?！笔堑?，

是的，那是我的，”男孩興奮地喊道。）可知，老人第一次從水里找到一把金斧頭，第二

次從水里找到一把銀斧頭，第三次從水里找到一把鐵斧頭。因此，老人在水里找到三把

斧頭。故選B。

（4）推理判斷題。根據(jù)第三段Ineedittomakesomemoneytocareformysickfather.（我

需要它來(lái)賺些錢(qián)來(lái)照顧我生病的父親。）可知，小男孩要照顧生病的父親，這說(shuō)明他關(guān)心

他人；由第三段中Thenheheldashininggoldenaxe.Theboyshookhisheadandsaid,"It's

notmyaxe.H"Letmegoinandsearchoncemore."Amomentlater,theoldmanheldasilver

axe.Thistime,theboyshookhisheadagain.（然后他拿著一把閃閃發(fā)光的金斧子。男孩搖

搖頭說(shuō)：”這不是我的斧子。”“讓我進(jìn)去再搜索一次「過(guò)了一會(huì)兒，老人拿著一把銀斧子。

這一次，男孩又搖了搖頭。）提到的小男孩沒(méi)有選擇金斧頭和銀斧頭可推斷。他很誠(chéng)實(shí)。

【分析】本文章主要向讀者介紹了從古至今人們都使用何種方法來(lái)知曉時(shí)間，并對(duì)這些

方法進(jìn)行了大概的說(shuō)明.

【解答】(1)B.細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)文章第二段，About5,500yearsago,theEgyptians

inventedthesunclock.Thiswasatallstonebuilding.Ifsshadow(影子)showedthe

movementofthesun.Sopeoplewereabletoknowmidday.大約5500年前，埃及人發(fā)明了

太陽(yáng)鐘.這是一座高大的石頭建筑，它的影子顯示了太陽(yáng)的運(yùn)動(dòng)，因此人們可以知道正

午.可知，在下雨天的時(shí)候，是沒(méi)有太陽(yáng)的，即不能看到太陽(yáng)的影子進(jìn)而知道時(shí)間.因

此，在雨天是不能通過(guò)太陽(yáng)鐘來(lái)得知時(shí)間的，故選B.

(2)D.細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)文章第三段，Clocksbecamecheapertobuild.Ifsalsocheaper

forordinarypeopletoownaclock.鐘表變得更便宜了，普通人擁有一個(gè)鐘也更便宜了.可

知，以前時(shí)鐘很貴，則一般人買(mǎi)不起.后來(lái)變得便宜了，則大眾都可以擁有了.因此，

劃線(xiàn)單詞意為：普通的，故選D.

(3)C.細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)文章第二段，About5,500yearsago,theEgyptiansinvented
