Question

【题目】 Mr. Dong was our science teacher. On the first day of class, he gave us a lecture about an animal that died out during the lee Age. He passed around with a skull (头盖骨) in his hand as he talked. We all took notes and later had a quiz.

When he returned my paper. I was shocked. There was a big red “X” through each of my answers. I had failed. There had to be some mistakes! I had written down exactly what Mr. Dong said. Then I realized that everyone in the class had failed. Thinking this achievement would be recorded in our report, we all got angry. But Mr. Dong refused to make a change. What had happened?

“Very simple.” Mr. Dong explained. There had never bee any such animal. All the story was made up by himself. So what we wrote down in our notes was the refore incorrect. Did we expect marks for incorrect answers? Hearing his explanation, we realized that be hadn't given us any useful facts, such as its living habit and particular body characters.

Mr. Dong said teachers and textbooks are not always dependable. In fact. no one is. So we should find out the truth by ourselves instead of accepting what the text or the teacher said blindly, He told us not to let our mind go to sleep and to speak up if we ever thought he or the textbook was wrong.

Every class was an adventure (冒险) with Mr. Dong He never let as off the hook until we had proved not only that we learned what be taught but also that we had the courage to stand up for the truth.

【1】细节理解题。根据On the first day of class, he gave us a lecture about an animal that died out during the lee Age. 第一天上课时，他给我们讲了一种动物，这种动物在李氏时代灭绝了。可知Mr. Dong的第一堂科学课是通过口头描述来上的，故答案选A。
