Module 4 Fine Arts 单元加餐练.阅读理解Have you ever been sad because of failure? Please remember, for quite often achieving what you set out to do is not the most important thing.A boy decided to dig a deep hole behind his house. As he was working, a couple of older boys stopped by to watch.“What are you doing？” asked one of the visitors.“I want to dig a hole all the way through the earth！” the boy answered excitedly. The older boys began to laugh, telling him that digging a hole all the way through the earth was impossible. After a while, the boy picked up a jar. He showed it to the visitors. It was full of all kinds of stones and insects. Then he said calmly and confidently，“Maybe I cant finish digging all the way through the earth, but look at what Ive found during this period！”The boys goal was far too difficult, but it did cause him to go on. And that is what a goal is for to cause us to move in the direction we have chosen, in other words, to cause us to keep working!Not every goal will be fully achieved. Not every job will end up with a success. Not every dream will come true. But when you fall short of your aim, maybe you can say，“Yes, but look at what Ive found along the way! There are so many wonderful things having come into my life because I tried to do something！” It is in the digging that life is lived. It is the unexpected joy on the journey that really makes sense.语篇解读：本文通过一个小男孩挖洞的故事导入到目标在我们的生活中的重大价值，尽管我们可能无法实现目标，但在朝着目标努力的过程中，我们学会了很多，也得到了很多。1The older boys laughed at the boy because he was thought to be_.AbraveBimpoliteCfoolish Dwarmhearted解析：选C推理判断题。根据第二段“The older boys began to laugh, telling him that digging a hole all the way through the earth was impossible.”可知其他男孩都嘲笑他，说挖穿地球是不可能的事情，而他还在做。他们都嘲笑他愚蠢。故C正确。2Why did the boy show the jar to the older boys?ATo drive them away.BTo show what he had found in digging.CTo show how beautiful the jar was.DTo attract them to join him in the work.解析：选B推理判断题。根据第二段最后一句“Then he said calmly and confidently, Maybe I cant finish digging all the way through the earth, but look at what Ive found during this period！”可知他拿着那个罐子告诉其他男孩，虽然他可能不会挖穿地球，但是在这过程中他会找到很多有趣的东西。以此来说明朝着梦想奋斗的过程是很有趣的事情。故B正确。3What can be learnt from the fourth paragraph of the text?ANo dream can come true.BAll work will end successfully.CGoals shouldnt be set too high.DGoals will make us work harder.解析：选D推理判断题。根据文章第四段“But when you fall short of your aim, maybe you can say, Yes, but look at what Ive found along the way!
