If you are lazy and weak, you will never taste any success. But if you are 1 , success and happiness will be more likely to come to you. I love eating kiwi fruits (猕猴桃). But you can’t get them until autumn. If you eat them before the right time, they probably 2 bad.

But every time I wanted to 6 , Mom would shout, “Hey you! Think about your 7 . If you don’t work hard, you’ll regret!” I had to sit back down again and return to my textbooks.

You 10 get the good result of your work only by working hard.” Although I didn’t understand at that time, I 11 came to see the truth of her words. A few months later, I succeeded in getting into the key high school, and it was 12 . Walking in my new school, I could see a lot of kiwi fruits in the trees. Suddenly, I 13 that working hard may be bitter but its fruit is sweet. My mom was right: if a kiwi fruit tree doesn’t grow 14 summer, it can’t bear fruit in autumn. I smiled. I had grown through the summer 15 now it was autumn.

My grandmother always took me to the orchard (果园) on the hill. At that time, they had to carry water from the river at the foot of the hill to halfway up the hill. Even though we worked so hard, the production level of fruit was still low because it was short of water there. One day, two young men led a group of workers to our village. They learned about the difficulties we faced, and later, canals and other projects began to be built in my village. “Who are they?” I asked. “They are good men from our government,” my grandma replied. Shortly afterwards, I moved to another city for my junior high school. The only reason I ever came back to my hometown was my grandmother. One day, my family and I made time to return. We were surprised because everything had changed. The canal ran past every orchard so villagers didn’t have to go up and down the hill anymore. The river was now so clean that fish swam happily in it. When we arrived home, my grandma took out some fresh pears and apples. She told us that after the water conservation project (水利工程) was completed, a policy (政策) was made to encourage more people to increase the fruit production with clean water in the river. Thank those good men who have devoted themselves to the development of the countryside. Nowadays, people work hard to live in a big city. However, we should not forget our hometowns where we are from. 1．What troubled the villagers most was that ________. A．they had too much work B．it was not convenient to go up the hill C．they could only grow fruit trees D．there wasn’t enough water in the orchard 2．The good men came and offered help probably because of ________.

A．the grandmother doesn’t like to live in the city B．the village is a place of interest for tourists now C．there will be more fruit production in the village D．more people like to work in the countryside nowadays 4．The underlined phrase “devoted themselves to” is closest in meaning to ________.

C．Why do people come back? D．What does a hometown mean? 【答案】1．D 2．B 3．C 4．D 5．A 【导语】本文主要讲述了作者家乡由于缺水导致水果产量低，后来在政府的支持下通过兴建水利工程，使家乡面貌焕然一新，表达了作者对家乡建设者的感激之情。 1．第一段提到：“…the production level of fruit was still low because it was short of water there.”，这直接说明了果园缺水是当时困扰村民、导致减产的最主要问题。 2．第二段中奶奶回答道：“They are good men from our government,”，由此可知，这些来提供帮助的人员隶属于政府，说明家乡的改变源于政府的支持。 3．第三段提到：“…after the water conservation project was completed, a policy was made to encourage more people to increase the fruit production…”，根据水利工程已完工且政府出台政策鼓励生产的事实，可以推断出未来村里的水果产量将会增加。 4．最后一段提到：“Thank those good men who have devoted themselves to the development of the countryside.”，结合这些建设者们通过实地调研并带领工人修建水利工程的行为可知，他们为农村发展付出了巨大的精力和努力，故该短语意为“投入大量精力”。 5．全篇叙述了家乡从过去因缺水而贫困，到政府派遣人员修建水利设施，再到如今环境优美、生产便利的转变过程。选项A“村庄是如何改善的？”最能概括文章的核心内容。 When I was very young, people in our village lived by planting fruit trees.
