Martin Lynch, an American businessman, had been going on vacation to a small Mexican fishing village for a number of ears. One morning while going for a walk along the beach, he saw his friend Pablo Perez, a local fisherman. Martin watched Pablo unload his boat and pack the fish in a box.
Martin noticed Pablo was smiling and looked very happy. He could also see several large fish in the boat. Martin greeted Pablo and asked how long it took to catch the fish. “Just a few hours,” replied Pablo. Martin asked, “Why didn’t you stay longer and catch more fish?” “I have enough for my family,” Pablo said. “And what do you do with the rest of your day?” asked Martin. “I take a nap, play with my children, spend time with my wife, and go into the village to see my friends and play cards, I have a full and busy life.” Martin explained that if Pablo worked longer hours and caught more fish, he could make more money. With the extra money, Pablo could buy more boats and catch money more fish. By selling the fish, Pablo could open his own factory and sell direct to supermarkets.
“Then what?” asked Pablo. “Well you would probably have to move to Mexico City to run the business. Finally, you would be able to sell your business and make millions of dollars,” replied Martin. “How long will that take?” asked Pablo.
Martin thought for a while and said it would probably take at least 15 years.
“And then what” asked Pablo.
“Well, that’s the best part,” Martin said. “You will be able to retire, buy a house near the ocean, sleep longer, play with your children, spend more time with your wife, see your friends, and play cards.”

(答案→)D 解析:短文大意:本文讲述了一个美国的生意人到墨西哥渡假,他以生意人的角度给当地一个渔民一些建议,让他如何可以赚更多的钱,早点退休过上轻松的生活。 【小题1】主旨题,本题采用排除法可以在文中直接找出答案。A选项读完第一句就可以排除,这个商人和渔民已经是朋友了。B和C在文中没有任何提及,直接可以排除答案。 【小题2】细节题,本题采用排除法可以很快找到答案。文章没有谈及到很多朋友来拜访这个渔夫,所以排除A,C和D选项中提到的内容不是渔民所提到的,而是这个生意人给渔夫出的建议,生意人用自己的眼光觉得更多的船以及海边的大房子会让渔民很开心,但这些知识生意人自己单方面的想法。 【小题3】细节题,本题抓住题干的关键词in the businessman’s view,也就是说正确答案是生意人的观点。D选项在文中可以直接找到,生意人建议渔夫多工作一会,抓到更多的鱼,然后卖更多的鱼,赚更多的钱才能到B搬到大城市,最后才能到C卖掉公司提早退休。 A选项是对文意的曲解,生意人的意思是直接把鱼卖到超市,而不是买下超市。 【小题4】猜词题,让学生猜测的单词是unload, load的意思是装载,负担。对于学生来说不是很难,加上否定前缀再结合下文中将鱼打包说明是要把船收好,所以正确选项是B。 【小题5】主旨题,本文是个很有寓意的小故事,生意人以自己的眼光觉得人应该尽力工作,尽力赚更多的钱,过上更加轻松的日子。但是渔夫觉得过着忙碌充实的生活,和朋友交流,和家人聚会就觉得很满足。两人的看法不一样,所以最后渔夫还是会坚守自己的看法。
