Question

A famous teacher was speaking to the students at our school. He began his lesson by holding up a ￥100 bill. Then he said to the three hundred students， “Who would like this ￥100 bill？” The students began to put up their hands at once.
Then he said， “I am going to give this ￥100 to one of you， but first， let me do this.” He then made the bill into a ball. Then he said， “Who wants it now？” The hands went back into the air.
“Well，” he said， “What if I do this？” and he dropped it on the floor and stepped on it. He picked up the dirty， crumpled bill and said， “Who still wants it？” Hands went back into the air.
“My friends，” he said， “you have learned a valua-ble lesson today. No matter  what I did to the money， you still wanted it because it did not go down in value （價值）。 It was still worth ￥ l00！”
Many times in our lives， we are dropped， crum-pled， and stepped on by the chances we take and the things that happen to us. We feel as if we are worth nothing. But remember， no matter what has happened to you， you will never lose your value： you are always valuable to those people who love you. Your value doesn‘t come from what you do or whom you know， but WHO YOU ARE.
You are special and valuable. Don‘t ever forget it！

Answer 1

小題1:C
小題2:D
小題3:A
小題4:D

1. Ｃ　細節題，根據you still wanted it because it did not go down in value可知它不會貶值，故選Ｃ。
2. Ｄ　從you are always valuable to those people who love you可知是愛你的人，選Ｄ。
3. Ａ　語句猜測題，需從上文來看。Go back是回到的意思,從表面意思來看是：手又重新放到空中，換句話說就是又舉手了，故選Ａ。
4. Ｄ　主旨題的考查。文章主要講的是人的價值，老師只是通過錢的價值來引出來的，這是文章的升華。Ａ,Ｂ,Ｃ三個答案只是一種淺顯的現象，不可取。故選Ｄ。
