试题详情及答案解析

The day when the jobs were handed out was one of the most exciting moments for all the children in the class. It took place during the first week of the term. Every kid was given a job for which they would be responsible for the rest of that school year.
Some jobs were more interesting than others, and the children were eager to be given one of the best ones. When giving them out, the teacher took into account which pupils had been most responsible during the previous year. During the previous year Rita had carried out the teacher’s instructions perfectly. All the children knew Rita would be given the best job.
But there was a big surprise.Each child received a normal job. But Rita’s job was very different. She was given a little box containing some sand and one ant. Though the teacher insisted that this ant was very special, Rita felt disappointed. Most of her classmates felt sorry for her. Even her father became very angry with the teacher and he encouraged Rita to pay no attention to this insignificant pet. However, Rita preferred to show the teacher her error by doing something special with that job of little interest.
Rita started investigating all about her little ant and gave the ant the best food, and it grew quite a bit bigger.
One day, a man, who looked very important, came into their classroom and declared, “Your class has been chosen to accompany me, this summer, on a journey to the tropical rain forest, where we will investigate all kinds of insects. Among all the schools of this region, your class has best cared for the little ant.”
That day the school was filled with joy and celebration. Everyone thanked Rita for having been so patient and responsible. And many children learnt that to be given the most important task you have to know how to be responsible even in what are the smallest tasks.

试题分析：只有认真对待每一个小任务，才有可能赢得大任务的机会。本文老师根据孩子们去年的表现，给予每个孩子一份工作。Rita表现最突出却并没有得到最好的工作，她感到很失望，但是还是认真地去调查了解很多关于蚂蚁的知识。正好学校组织一次旅游去研究昆虫，她可以学以致用。
【小题1】句意猜测题。根据All the children knew Rita would be given the best job of all可知在孩子们中间Rita表现“最突出”，所有的孩子都认为她会被给予最好的工作。Each child received a normal job. But Rita’s job was very different.可知Rita并没有得到最好的工作，所以令人意外的事情是最负责任的学生却得到了一份最没有兴趣的工作，故选D。
【小题2】细节理解题。根据Even her father became very angry with the teacher and he encouraged Rita to pay no attention to this insignificant pet. However, Rita preferred to show the teacher her error by doing something special with that job of little interest.得知她没有听她的父亲的建议，故选A。
【小题3】推理判断题。根据One day, a man, who looked very important, came into their classroom and declared, “Your class has been chosen to accompany me, this summer, on a journey to the tropical rain forest, where we will investigate all kinds of insects. 他可能是生物学家，因为他也要参加这次活动，故选C。
