Question

閱讀下面短文，根據所給語境，按要求完成下列各題。
A man came home from work late, tired, to find his 5-year-old son waiting for him at the door.
“Daddy, how much money do you make an hour?”
“If you must know, I make $20 an hour,”
“Oh,” the little boy replied, with his head down. He thought for a moment, looked up and said, “Daddy, could you lend me $10?”
The father was furious, “If you asked for the money to buy a toy or some other rubbish, then go straight to your room and think about why you are being so selfish（自私的）!”
The little boy quietly went to his room and shut the door. After about an hour or so, the father calmed（平靜）down, and started to think, “Maybe he really needs to buy something and he didn’t really ask for money very often.” So he went to the little boy’s room.
“Sorry! Maybe I was too hard on you just now.” said the man, “Here’s $10.”
“Oh, thank you, Daddy!” he said happily. Then, the boy took out some coins. When the father found that the boy already had money, he got angry again.
“Why do you want more money since you already have some?” the father shouted angrily.
“Because I didn’t have enough, but now I do.” the little boy replied, “Daddy, I have $20 now. Can I buy an hour of your time? Please come home early tomorrow. I would like to have dinner with you.”

Answer 1

小題1:T
小題2:an hour of his father’s time
小題3:160 dollars.
小題4:Because he thought his son wanted to buy a toy or some other rubbish.
小題5:既然你有一些錢，為什么還要更多的錢呢？

試題分析：這篇短文講述的是一個故事，故事中的一個男孩想跟父親借10美元錢，這樣他就能湊夠20美元，來買他爸爸一個小時的時間，因為他爸爸每個小時可以掙20美元，他想讓他爸爸陪他吃晚飯。
小題1:根據短文的大意可知，故事中的孩子想用20美元買他爸爸一個小時的時間，讓他爸爸陪他一起吃晚飯，由此我們可以看出，平時他爸爸因為工作忙，沒有多少時間陪他吃飯。故這句話說得是正確的。
小題2:根據短文的最后部分，孩子說的話Daddy, I have $20 now. Can I buy an hour of your time?可知，這個孩子有了20美元錢，他想用這個錢買他爸爸一個小時的時間，讓他陪他吃晚飯。故這里應該填an hour of his father’s time。
小題3:根據文章中I make $20 an hour,可知，故事中小男孩的爸爸一個小時掙20美元，故一天8個小時應該是可以掙160美元。
小題4:根據短文中The father was furious, “If you asked for the money to buy a toy or some other rubbish, then go straight to your room and think about why you are being so selfish可知，當父親聽到男孩借10美元錢的時候，他以為孩子想買玩具或其他沒有用的東西，所以他很生氣。
小題5:這句話中的since 的意思是既然，引導原因狀語從句；want more money 想要更多的錢。所以這句話的意思是既然你已經有一些錢，為什么還要更多的錢呢？這里是父親不明白孩子想要干什么。
