九年级英语单选题中等难度题查看答案及解析

As a young woman， my mother worked in the kitchen of a large farm owned by Fanny Cratty. She was hardworking and had a special skill in making delicious strawberry jam.

Aunt Fanny was single and had no children. She didn’t like to share love with others. I thought she was very lonely， although she didn’t mind it. She had a workshop where my mother helped her make the best strawberry jam， and everyone in our town bought it. But aunt Fanny asked my mother not to tell the recipe(秘方) of making the strawberry jam to others.

When the strawberries were ripe， my family would pick them together. We talked and laughed， experiencing the fun of picking strawberries. But aunt Fanny never joined us. She just asked us to pick strawberries quickly and make more strawberry jam to make more money for her. Each person in our town said that she just paid attention to money rather than anything else. What a poor woman! It’s no use having too much money because she had no family and friends to share her happiness during her lifetime.

Maybe it was the recipe that brought success to aunt Fanny. But to me， it was just a common recipe. Money can make you feel rich for a while， but it is the beautiful days spent with family and friends that truly make you rich.

1.Who owns the recipe of making the best strawberry jam?

A. The writer’s mother.　 B. The writer.

C. Aunt Fanny.　　 　　　　　　 D. Fanny’s mother.

2.Why do people in the town think aunt Fanny is poor?

A. Because she needed to work hard in her workshop.

B. Because she paid attention to nothing except money.

C. Because she had no close friends to shared her success.

D. Because she always thought of helping others rather than herself.

3.—What does the last word “rich” mean in this passage?

—It means ________.

A. the success of making strawberry jam

B. having the recipe and much money

C. the happiness， one’s family and friends

D. owning a big house and the large farm

It was a village in India. The people were poor. However, they were not unhappy. After all, their forefathers(祖先) had lived in the same way for centuries.

Then one day, some visitors from the city arrived. They told the villagers there were some people elsewhere who liked to eat frogs’ legs. However, they did not have enough frogs of their own, and so they wanted to buy frogs from other places.

This seemed like money for nothing. There were millions of frogs in the fields around, and they were no use to the villagers. All they had to do was to catch them. Agreement was reached, and the children were sent into the fields to catch frogs. Every week a truck arrived to collect the catch and hand over the money. For the first time, the people were able to dream of a better future. But the dream didn’t last long.

The change was hardly noticed at first, but it seemed as if the crops were not doing so well. More worrying was that the children fell ill more often, and there seemed to be more insects around lately.

The villagers decided that they couldn’t just wait to see the crops failing and the children getting weak. They would have to use the money earned to buy pesticides(杀虫剂) and medicine. Soon there was no money left.

Then the people realized what was happening. It was the frogs. They hadn’t been useless. They had been doing an important job—eating insects. Now with so many frogs killed, the insects were increasing more quickly. They were damaging the crops and spreading diseases.

Now, the people are still poor. But in the evenings they sit in the village square and listen to sounds of insects and frogs. These sounds of night now have a much deeper meaning.

1.Why did the villagers agree to sell frogs?

A.They needed money to buy medicine. B.The frogs were easy money.

C.They wanted to please the visitors. D.The frogs made too much noise.

2.What might be the cause of the children’s sickness?

A.The crops didn’t do well. B.The visitors brought in diseases.

C.There were too many insects. D.The pesticides were overused.

3.What can we learn from the last sentence of this article?

A.Happiness comes from peaceful life in the country.

B.The harmony between man and nature is important.

C.Health is more important than money.

D.Good old days will never be forgotten.
