out（阻止）disease（疾病），・・・letillsin,Aparticulardanger（特别的危

险）.・・publicbaths（公共浴室），后面紧接着举例提到了英法两国国王关闭了

查某人的态度。短文中提到度nryIVwasfamously（出了名地）dirty（脏的）。

aboutattitudestodirt（人们对污垢没有一•个确定的说法），然后又提到

Attitudestodirtstilldiffer（人们对污垢仍然持有不同的看法），由此看

出短文只是陈述人们对污垢的不同看法，故答案为D。

［解析］选项中theoldone,itsbeautifullooks,gardener，s和

function表明，本题中his可能指代旧工具,并结合选项中的past（过去），

aging（老化），manner（态度）及leaking（渗漏）推测，本题可能考查旧工具的某

个特征。短文中提到Theoldbucketfeltveryashamedbecauseofits

holes,紧接着后面给出解释：等到了花圃，大部分水都已经洒了，故答案为

"becauseof后面的内容常为考查的重点,因此要注意表示原因的信息词。

相对于theoldone而言的那个新工具做某事的目的。thenewbucket对the

Whywastheoldbucketstillkeptbythegardener?

［解析］结合四个选项中的it,treasure,function,bestcondition,

balance内容可推测，it可能指代旧工具。短文最后提到在通往花园的小路

上，园丁使用thenewbucket挑水的一侧是光秃的土地，而用theold

bucket挑水的一侧则开满了野花，由此可推测在园丁看来theoldbucket还

是有一定使用价值的，故答案为B。
