1、
As a young woman, my mother worked in the kitchen of a large farm owned by Fanny Cratty. She was hardworking and had a special skill in making delicious strawberry jam.
Aunt Fanny was single and had no children. She didn’t like to share love with others. I thought she was very lonely, although she didn’t mind it. She had a workshop where my mother helped her make the best strawberry jam, and everyone in our town bought it. But aunt Fanny asked my mother not to tell the recipe(秘方) of making the strawberry jam to others.
When the strawberries were ripe, my family would pick them together. We talked and laughed, experiencing the fun of picking strawberries. But aunt Fanny never joined us. She just asked us to pick strawberries quickly and make more strawberry jam to make more money for her. Each person in our town said that she just paid attention to money rather than anything else. What a poor woman! It’s no use having too much money because she had no family and friends to share her happiness during her lifetime.
Maybe it was the recipe that brought success to aunt Fanny. But to me, it was just a common recipe. Money can make you feel rich for a while, but it is the beautiful days spent with family and friends that truly make yourich.
【1】Who owns the recipe of making the best strawberry jam?
A. The writer’s mother. B. The writer.
C. Aunt Fanny. D. Fanny’s mother.
【2】Why do people in the town think aunt Fanny is poor?
A. Because she needed to work hard in her workshop.
B. Because she paid attention to nothing except money.
C. Because she had no close friends to shared her success.
D. Because she always thought of helping others rather than herself.
【3】—What does the last word “rich” mean in this passage?
—It means ________.
A. the success of making strawberry jam
B. having the recipe and much money
C. the happiness, one’s family and friends
D. owning a big house and the large farm
【1】A
【2】C
【3】C
试题分析:短文大意:作者母亲有做草莓酱的秘方,她为农场主Fanny Cratty赚了很多钱,但是作者认为真正的富裕不在于金钱,而是在于与家人、朋友一起度过的美好时光。
【1】A细节理解题。根据短文第一段可知,作者的妈妈拥有制造最好草莓酱的食谱,可知答案选A。
【2】B细节理解题。根据短文第三段第三、四行Each person in our town said that she just paid attention to money rather than anything else. What a poor woman!可知,认为她穷的原因是她除了钱以外什么都不在意。可知该选B。
【3】C词义猜测题。根据短文最后一段Money can make you feel rich for a while, but it is the beautiful days spent with family and friends that truly make you rich可知,“rich”的意思是指“幸福、家人和朋友”,故答案选C。
