試題分析：這篇短文給我們講述了一個(gè)小故事。一位畫(huà)家去農(nóng)村某個(gè)地方度假，他和一個(gè)農(nóng)民住在一起。在他快走的時(shí)候，他想付錢(qián)給農(nóng)民，但是農(nóng)民不要他的錢(qián)，而想要他的畫(huà)。他是想把畫(huà)家的畫(huà)拿給自己的兒子看，好讓他斷了想當(dāng)畫(huà)家的念頭。

1.細(xì)節(jié)理解題。通讀短文可知，在這篇短文中一共提到了三個(gè)人，即一名畫(huà)家an artist、一個(gè)農(nóng)民a farmer，還有農(nóng)民的兒子son。故選B。

2.細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根文章開(kāi)頭的第一句話An artist went to a beautiful part of the country for a holiday, and stayed with a farmer.可知，一位畫(huà)家去一個(gè)美麗的農(nóng)村地區(qū)度假，他和一個(gè)農(nóng)民住在一起。所以這位畫(huà)家和這個(gè)農(nóng)民是一起住了一個(gè)假期。故選C。

3.細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文的最后一段的內(nèi)容I have a son in London. He wants to become an artist. When he comes home next month, I’ll show him your picture可知，當(dāng)畫(huà)家要走的時(shí)候，他想要畫(huà)家的一幅畫(huà)，然后把它拿給他的兒子看，故選D。

4.推理判斷題。根據(jù)短文的最后兩段的內(nèi)容可知，農(nóng)民不要畫(huà)家的錢(qián)，他覺(jué)得錢(qián)很快就會(huì)花沒(méi)了，他想要畫(huà)家的畫(huà)。這個(gè)時(shí)候畫(huà)家很高興，他以為農(nóng)民是喜歡他的畫(huà)，他會(huì)受到農(nóng)民的表?yè)P(yáng)。故選D。
