问题详情:
There was a gardener who looked after his garden with great care. To water his flowers,he used two buckets(水桶) was a shiny and new bucket. The other was a very old and dilapidated one,which had seen many years of service,but was now past its best.
Every morning,the gardener would fill up the two buckets. Then he would carry them along the path,one on each side,to the flowerbeds. The new bucket was very proud of itself. It could carry a full bucket of water without a single drop spilled. The old bucket felt very ashamed(惭愧的)because of its holes: before it reached the flowerbeds,much water had leaked(渗漏)along the path.
Sometimes the new bucket would say,"See how capable I am! How good it is that the gardener has me water the flowers every day! I don’t know why he still uses you. What a waste of space you are!"
And all that the old bucket could say was,"I know I am not very useful,but I can only do my best. I am happy that the gardener still finds a little bit of use in me ,at least.’’
One day,the gardener heard that kind of conversation. After watering the flowers as usual,he said,"You both have done your work very well. Now I am going to carry you back,and I want you to look carefully along the path."
Then the two buckets did so. All along the path, they noticed,on the side where the new bucket was carried,there was just bare earth;on the other side where the old bucket was carried,there was a joyous row of wild flowers,leading all the way to the garden.

【分析】
这是一篇记叙文。短文给我们讲述了一个寓言故事,告诉我们每个人都是有自己的用处的。
19.细节理解题。由第二段“The old bucket felt very ashamed(惭愧的)because of its holes: before it reached the flowerbeds,much water had leaked(渗漏)along the path.”可知,旧水桶身上有很多小洞,等提着这个水桶到花圃时,水桶里的水大多都已经洒了一路,这让它非常自卑。所以旧水桶对漏水感到自卑。故选D项。
20.词义猜测题。由第一段“The other was a very old and dilapidated one,which had seen many years of service,but was now past its best.”可知,另外一个已经破旧不堪了,用了很多年,看起来已经不太能用了。所以通过上下文语境可以判断出,下划线的“dilapidated”可能是worn out“破旧的”的意思。故选C项。
21.推理判断题。由第三段“Sometimes the new bucket would say,“See how capable I am! How good it is that the gardener has me water the flowers every day! I don’t know why he still uses you. What a waste of space you are!”可知, 有时候新水桶会说,“看我多厉害,花圃有我每天给它浇水多好,我不知道他为什么还要用你,你简直是浪费空间。”所以通过新水桶所说的话可以判断出,新水桶与旧水桶交谈主要是为了嘲笑旧水桶。故选B项。
22.推理判断题。由最后段“Then the two buckets did so. All along the path, they noticed, on the side where the new bucket was carried, there was just bare(光**的)earth; on the other side where the old bucket was carried, there was a joyous row of wild flowers, leading all the way to the garden.可知,两只水桶都这么做了。沿着回去的路,他们发现,园丁拎着新水桶的那一边的路上,地上都是光**的,而拎着就水桶的那一边,却有一排令人欣喜的野花,铺满了花圃的整条小路。所以这说明这只破水桶也有作用和价值,浇灌了它那一边的花草。故判断出为什么那个旧水桶还被园丁使用着是因为它有自己的优势。故选C项。
【点睛】
根据文章中人物所说的话的内容是解决推理判断题的重要方法,因为通过所说的内容,我们可以判断出,作者所要想表达的观点是积极的还是消极的,是中立的还是支持或者否定某一方,对事情是关心的还是冷漠的。是在提出建议还是在提出具体的解决措施。
由第三段“Sometimes the new bucket would say,“See how capable I am! How good it is that the gardener has me water the flowers every day! I don’t know why he still uses you. What a waste of space you are!”可知, 有时候新水桶会说,“看我多厉害,花圃有我每天给它浇水多好,我不知道他为什么还要用你,你简直是浪费空间。”所以通过新水桶所说的话可以判断出,新水桶与旧水桶交谈主要是为了嘲笑旧水桶。故小题3选B项。
