【语篇解读角】

本文是一篇神话故事，故事讲述一农民偶然挖到聚宝盆，贪心的国王想占为己有，国王想探个究竟的时候不小心聚出一百个国王，然后互相残杀致死。这篇文章暗示人们不要贪心不足。

【答案详析】

1 D 根据后文boil rice，还有后面出现的pot，得知不是A、B、C项。

2 C 根据前文It does not seem to be of any use to me.和后文Maybe l willfind something else，可知他是想要挖得更深一些。

3 D 根据前文意思“农民想要挖到其他东西”，所以“他继续挖”。

4 A 前文說到农民“feeling tired”，所以此处应该是“休息”

5 B 后文There were one hundred spades in the pot.是不符合常理的，所以他不敢“相信”他的眼睛。

6 C 前文There were one hundred spades in the pot.常理看是不可能的，所以很“神奇”且文章后面也出现magical一词。

7 A 根据后文Then he found one hundred mangoes in the pot.得知。

8 B 根据前文，农民得到的是一个放什么得什么的“聚宝盆”。因为有了这个“聚宝盆”，他有钱了。

9 D “国王得知了这事，而且国王很贪婪”，后文有提到他想得到这个宝贝。

10 B 联系前后文，后文说到“如果它有价值”，说明并不确定它是否有价值，而它也不是商品，就谈不上price，cost，wealth之类。国王觉得很奇怪，“国王想知道其中的奥秘。”

11 B “如果这盆有价值，那题就得是我的。”根据前文的greedy得来。

12 D “国王看着这盆，不知所措。”其他选项填入意思不通。

13 A “国王滑了一跤，掉进盆里”。顺着slipped意思得来。

14 C 根据该“聚宝盆”的特性，“投一得百”，现在有一百个国王，对原国王来说，是很“震惊”。

15 D 出现一百个国王，可想而知的场面就是互相打斗，所以选fought，后文died也可以得知此答案。
