An American visiting Scotland met an old man with a beautiful sheep dog. The American offered $ 50 for the dog, but the old man refused, “I couldn't part with Jack.” he said. Just then, an English man walked up and made the same offer. The old man agreed, pocketed the money and handed over the dog. The American was very angry. “You told me you wouldn't sell the dog!” he cried. “No! No!” said the old man. “I said I couldn't part with him. England's not that far away and Jack will be back in two days. But he couldn't swim across the Atlantic.” The American said angrily to the old man, “……

[  ]

2.Why didn't the Scottish old man sell the dog to the American?

3.What did the American say to the old man at last?

[  ]

A.I couldn't part with the dog.

B.The dog wasn't able to swim across the Atlantic.

C.Why did you sell the dog to the English?

D.How clever you are!

答案:A;C;D
解析:

  1.在文章的第三行,故事的叙述是这样的,The old man agreedpocketed the money and handed over the dog.“那位老人同意了,把钱放进日袋并把狗递了过去。”证明老人已经把狗卖给了这位英国人。

  2.美国人见此情景肯定十分气愤,同样的价钱他却没有买到心爱的小狗,他对这位老人质问之后,老人的回答即为该题的答案。老人的回答是,“I said I couldn't part with himEngland's not that far away and Jack will be back in two days.”意思是“我不能和我的狗分离,英国离这里不远,Jack两天后就会回来的。”

  3.本题的关键词语是at last,意思是“最终、最后”。我们可以看到文章的最后有比较明显的标记,把以下四句话依次放入故事之中,就能够比较准确地表达这位美国人的气愤和不满。
