B。这位富人不仅带了东西去卖，而且带钱去“买”东西。解这道题时要注意将句中and前后的内容进行比较。‎ ‎2. A。根据他的想法，他“决定”要带十个仆人。这件事完全可以由他自己决定，所以没有必要“希望带……”或“努力带……”，故C、D不合题意。‎ ‎3. C。carry在句中意为“携带、运送”；take意为“带走”；bring意为“带来”。本句意为“他们将运送要卖的东西和在路上要吃的食物”。下文的第10、11两题所在的句子也有提示。 ‎ ‎4. B。参照第3题。‎ ‎5. D。一个小男孩来找这位富人，要求和他们一起走，故选 the rich man。‎ ‎6. C。参照第5题。‎ ‎7. A。富人同意小男孩随行。‎ ‎8. D。此句和上文是转折关系,意为“但是你是我的仆人中最小的、最瘦的、最弱的一个，你不能挑重担”，故选but。‎ ‎9. C。参照第8题。‎ ‎10. A。参照第8题。‎ ‎11. B。此句意为“你要选择挑最轻的担子”，“pick up”意为“捡起”，不合文意，故选choose。‎ ‎12. D。主人看到这个小仆人选择了最重的担子，感到他很“愚蠢”，故选foolish。。 ‎ ‎13. B。听了主人的话，小男孩“什么也没说”，而是高兴地挑起了担 子。 ‎ ‎14. C。由于小男孩的聪明，“除了”他自己，其他仆人都累坏了。 ‎ ‎15. D。Do you know why? 用在文章最后用来引出原因，告诉读者其中的奥妙。‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎
