When Mencius was young, his mother paid great attention to his education. There is a famous story called "Mencius' mother moving three times". At first, they lived near a cemetery（墓地）. Mencius often imitated（模仿） the people there. To give him a better learning environment, his mother moved their home to a place near a market. But Mencius started to imitate the merchants. Finally, his mother moved again, this time near a school. From then on, Mencius began to learn from the students and teachers. Later, Mencius traveled around different states to spread his ideas.

Around 372 BCE. 解析： 基础信息题，答案直接来源于文章第一句话：“Mencius, a great thinker in ancient China, was born around 372 BCE.” 文章明确说明了孟子的出生年份是大约公元前372年。选项A（公元前551年）是孔子的出生年份，选项C（公元前289年）接近孟子的逝世年份，均不正确。 2. 答案：A. Because Mencius imitated people at a cemetery. 解析： 细节理解题。题目问“孟母第二次搬家的原因是什么”。根据文章第二段内容：他们第一次住在墓地附近，孟子模仿那里的人（Mencius often imitated the people there.），于是母亲第一次搬家（搬到了市场附近）。题目问的“第二次搬家”，实际上就是指为了改变孟子“模仿墓地的人”这一行为而采取的第一次搬迁行动。因此，根本原因是A选项。B选项“模仿商人”是搬到市场附近后的结果，不是搬家的原因；C选项是最后搬到学校附近的结果，也不符合。 3. 答案：B. people who buy and sell goods 解析： 词义猜测题。需要根据上下文判断“merchants”的意思。该词出现在第二段描述他们搬到“a place near a market”（市场附近）之后。在市场里活动的最主要人群就是进行买卖的人。因此，“merchants”最可能的释义就是“买卖货物的人”，即商人。A选项“在农场工作的人”是农民，C选项“教学生的人”是老师，都与市场环境不匹配。 4. 答案：C. Near a cemetery → near a market → near a school. 解析： 细节理解与排序题。根据文章第二段“孟母三迁”故事的明确描述：起初（At first）住在墓地附近；为了更好的环境，母亲搬到（moved...to）市场附近；最后（Finally）再次搬到学校附近。因此正确的先后顺序是：墓地 → 市场 → 学校，对应C选项。 5. 答案：C. To give a brief introduction to Mencius and his ideas. 解析： 主旨大意题。需要理解整篇文章的写作目的。文章首先介绍了孟子的生卒年和思想渊源，然后讲述了他著名的童年故事，最后说明了他传播思想的方式及其深远影响。因此，全文是对孟子其人及其思想的简要介绍。A选项“讲述一个古代思想家的有趣故事”过于片面，仅概括了童年故事部分；B选项“解释孟母为何搬家三次”也仅仅是文章中的一个细节，不能涵盖全文主旨。只有C选项准确概括了全文。 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
