There was once a man who spent all his time in his glasshouse. Flowers was his name, and flowers were his main joy in life. He grew flowers of every color under the sun. He grew these flowers in order to enter them for competition. His greatest hope in life was to grow a rose of an entirely new color that would win him the silver cup for the Rose of the Year.
Mr. Flowers’ glasshouse was close to a public path, which was always used by children walking to and from school. Boys were often attracted to throw a stone or two at his glasshouse. So Mr. Flowers did his best to be in or close by his glasshouse at the beginning and end of the school day.
However, it was not convenient or possible to be on guard all the time. Mr. Flowers had tried in many ways to prevent harm to his glass; but nothing that he had done had been successful.
Then, just as he was giving up hope of ever winning the battle, and of growing the Rose of the Year, he had a truly wonderful idea. He put up a large notice made of good, strong wood, some metres away from the glasshouse, where it could be’ clearly seen from the path. He had painted on the board the words: DO NOT THROW STONES AT THIS NOTICE. After this, Mr. Flowers had no further trouble. The boys were much more attracted to throw stones at the notice than at the glasshouse.
The boys threw stones at Mr. Flowers’ notice because ______.
选项
A、they wanted to do what they were told not to do
B、the notice was closer to the path
C、they hated to see the notice
D、the notice was in the way
答案
A
解析
此题为细节信息考查和逻辑推理题。其中关键词是throw stones...notice be cause。本题可采用排除法。B项(牌子比花房离小路近)、D项(在路中间)与文中事实(第4段第 2句,some metres away from the glass house...seen from the path)不符;C项理由不能反映孩子的天性,可排除。唯有A项符合孩子淘气的心态,故为正确答案。
