分析 本文叙述了只有认真做好一些小事，才有可能赢得更重要的机会．在班里每个孩子会被给予一份工作，要求他们在这一学期对其负责，老师在分配任务时会考虑到孩子们去年的表现．Rita表现最突出并没有得到最好的工作，Rita的工作是照顾蚂蚁，她感到很失望，但是她还是认真地去做她通过调查了解了很多关于蚂蚁的知识．正好学校组织一次旅游去研究昆虫，她学到的知识用上了．

解答 26．D  细节理解题．根据When giving them out，the teacher took into account which pupils had been most responsible during the previous year．根据在过去在一年里学习表现．故D正确．
27．A 句意理解题．根据All the children knew Rita would be given the best job of all可知，在孩子们中间Rita表现"最突出（stood out）"，所以所有的孩子都认为她会被给予最好的工作．Each child received a normal job．But Rita's job was very different．可知，Rita并没有得到最好的工作，所以"令人意外的事情（surprise）"发生了．所以最负责任的学生得到了那份工作是最没有兴趣的．故A正确．
28．B  细节理解题．根据Even her father became very angry with the teacher and he encouraged Rita to pay no attention to this insignificant pet．However，Rita preferred to show the teacher her error by doing something special with that job of little interest．她没有听她的父亲的．故B正确．
