M: (12) You know, Ben’s given up making those terrible faces he used to make. The other day, he came home from school almost in tears. His teacher said if he went on like that, his face would get stuck when the winds changed.
W: And he believed her?
M: Yeah, he’s only a little boy. Don’t you remember all those things we used to believe when we were little? (13) I remember my aunt Mary used to say if you swallow a cherry stone, a tree will grow out of your mouth. And I’m still terrified today, sort of subconsciously. You know, if I swallow one by mistake...
W: Yeah, I suppose you’re right. (14) The one that used to get me was that swans could break your leg when they blow off the wing.
M: They can, can’t they? I always thought they could.
W: No, they are not that strong. But there’s another one even more terrifying. That is, if you put a post stamp on upside down, you’ll go to prison.
M: No, never heard of that. But my grandmother was a terror for that kind of thing. For example, she would say, you will get a spot on your tongue if you tell a lie. If you eat stale bread, your hair will curl. And here’s one more. (15) We went on a camping trip once in Italy, and my wife spent the whole time worrying about bats getting into her hair. She said her grandmother reckoned you had to shave your head to get it out. My wife was really terrified.
W: Silly, isn’t it? But that’s how some parents try to keep their kids from doing the wrong thing or getting into trouble.
Questions 12 to 15 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
12. What does the man say about Ben?
13. What did aunt Mary used to do when the man was a child?
14. What does the woman believe swans could do?
15. What did the grandmother of the man’s wife say?
选项
A、Tell him to play in her backyard.
B、Do something funny to amuse him.
C、Give him some cherry stones to play with.
D、Warn him of danger by making up a story.
答案
D
解析
浏览四个选项,从选项中的tell him,amuse him,give him,warn him等词可推测,此题与某人对he的行为指示有关。题干问的是当男士还是个孩子时姑姑玛丽常常做什么。对话中男十说他记得小时候姑姑经常对他说,如果吞了樱桃核,樱桃树就会从嘴里长出来,由此可知,姑姑经常编故事提醒他危险,故答案为D。A项(告诉他在后院玩),B项(做一些有趣的事情逗他玩),C项(给他一些樱桃核玩)文中均未提及,故排除。
