Question

【题目】根据短文理解，选择正确答案。
Andy never wanted to go to bed on time. His parents had explained to him how important it was to go to bed early and get a good rest. But Andy paid no attention to them, and they didn't know what to do until one weekend when they were visiting Andy's grandparents.
Grandpa Peter heard all about it and said, "This sounds like a job for Tubby." So Andy's parents loaded the cat onto the car and returned home.
That night, at bedtime, the same problem happened. Andy didn't want to go to bed, and even though his parents waited a while to see if Tubby would solve the problem, nothing happened.
Hours later, Andy finally decided to go to bed. But what a surprise when he entered his bedroom! Tubby was in his bed, totally sprawling out, pot-belly in the air, and snoring like an express train.
Andy tried to move the cat, but there was no way of moving him an inch. That night he hardly slept, lying on one tiny corner of his bed.
The next day the same thing happened, even though Andy was much more tired from not having slept well. When the third day arrived, he had understood that if he wanted to sleep in his bed, he would have to get into it before Tubby did. That night, when his parents only started to mention the topic of bedtime, Andy rushed upstairs and dived into bed. His parents could not believe it. They knew nothing about Tubby in the bed, nor did they understand why Andy went to bed on time without complaint. They were so happy about this that they stayed up quite late, celebrating.

A.has the same problem as Andy
B.often stays up late on weekend
C.can help solve Andy's problem

【解析】这篇短文主要给大家讲了一个肥猫塔比和小男孩安迪的故事。小男孩安迪晚上总是不按时睡觉，这让爸爸妈妈很头疼。可是自从一只大腹便便的小肥猫来到他家，他就变得异常自觉。

（1）C细节理解题。根据后来的故事可知，如果安迪睡晚了，这只猫就会占据安迪的床，以至于安迪晚上休息不好，白天没精神。就这样安迪被改掉了晚睡的坏习惯。由此可知，安迪爷爷说这话意思是这只猫可以帮助改掉安迪的坏习惯。故选C。

（2）B词义猜测题。根据第四段中的内容可知，当安迪走进卧室时，看到令人惊讶的一幕！那只猫完全地躺在床上，呼噜打得像一列快车一样。由此可知，此词是来形容猫的打鼾声。故选B。

（3）A细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“When the third day arrived, he had understood that if he wanted to sleep in his bed, he would have to get into it before Tubby did.”可知，安迪已经明白，如果他要睡在他的床上，他就要比那只猫早去上床睡觉。否则就会被猫占据了自己的床。故选A。

（4）D细节理解题。根据最后一段中的最后一句话“They were so happy about this that they stayed up quite late, celebrating.”可知，他们对于孩子能早睡觉感到很高兴。故选D。
