阅读与回答问题
Lizzie was born in 1842. She lived in a small house on a farm with her parents and two brothers. Her father and older brother worked in the fields picking cotton, and her mother and younger brother worked in the vegetable garden. Lizzie worked in the farmer’s house.
The farmer didn’t like Lizzie’s older brother and gave him the hardest jobs. Lizzie was afraid that one day the farmer would hurt her brother, or sell him to another farmer.
Many slaves(奴隶) tried to run away to the free states. But most were caught by slave catchers or tracking dogs. However some slaves found clever ways to escape(逃跑）. Lizzie was one of them.
Everyday she went to the farmer’s house, where she made beautiful clothes for the farmer’s daughters. She was allowed to keep small pieces of left-over materials, and she stitched(缝) these together into small patterns. Then she stitched the small patterns together to make a quilt. The patterns all had names such as ‘Flying Geese’, ‘Bear’s Paw’, or ‘Nine Patch’.
That quilt was really a map. Lizzie hung it on the clothes line outside the house, and her brother and other slaves saw Lizzie’s map and knew which way to go.
They also knew that Lizzie’s cabin was a “safety house” because a quilt with a sky blue square in the middle meant “safety house”. At each safe house, they were hidden and given food. With the quilt’s help, they knew the way to get to the next safe house until they got to the free states in the north.(改编于《新理念英语》)
回答下面5个问题, 每题答案不超过6个词。
1.How many people were there in Lizzie’s family?
