Passage 4
Mr Brown was going away for a week. Before he left, he said to his son, if anyone asks for me, you can tell him that your father has been out for doing something, and will be back in a week, then be sure to ask him to sit down for a cup of tea.
OK, Dad, said his son. But he was afraid his son couldn't remember this, he wrote these words down on a piece of paper and gave it to him. His son put it into his small pocket, took it out and looked at it every now and then.
Four days passed, but no one came to see his father. The boy thought that there was no man to come and that the piece of paper was of no more use for him, so he burnt it that evening.
The next afternoon, someone knocked at the door. The boy opened it. A man was standing at the door and said, “Where is your father?” The boy put his hand into his pocket at once and looked for the piece of paper. He could not find it. He suddenly remembered he had burnt it, so he shouted, “No more.”
The man was very surprised. He asked, “No more? I met your father last week. When did it happen?”
Burnt yesterday evening.

(答案→)B 解析：这篇短文是一个有趣的故事。故事中的父亲要离开家一星期，走之前告诉自己的儿子，如果有客人来就告诉他们他一星期后就会回来。并把这句话写在了一张纸上。前几天并没有客人来，所以儿子就把那张纸烧了。结果第二天就有客人来了，客人跟孩子之间闹出了很大的笑话。【小题1】细节理解题。根据文中your father has been out for doing something, and will be back in a week可知，文中的父亲外出要一周后回来，也就是7天后。故选B。【小题2】细节理解题。根据文中he wrote these words down on a piece of paper，他把这些话写在了一张纸上。故选C。【小题3】细节理解题。根据文中four days passed, but no one came to see his father…The next afternoon, someone knocked the door, 我们可以知道，四天过去了，没有人来找他的父亲，第二天下午，有人敲门。可知四天后的第二天，也就是第五天。故选D。【小题4】推理判断题。根据文中Where is your father? No more.你的父亲在哪里？ 没有了。儿子只想着他烧掉的那张纸，所以和客人之间发生了误会，客人以为是他的父亲没有了，即去世了。故选A。【小题5】细节理解题。根据文中The boy thought that there was no man to come and that the piece of paper was of no more use for him, so he burnt it that evening. 可知烧掉的是那张纸。故选A。
