We buy our food, but they grow theirs. We have high walls around our houses to protect us, but they don’t need walls, because their friends will protect them.”

試題分析：短文大意：本文敘述了一個富人想讓兒子看看農場上的窮人如何生活，于是帶著他在農場上住了幾天。當他問兒子這次旅行怎么樣。兒子說很棒。兒子覺得農場上的窮人比他們擁有的東西要多，認為自己家是多么的貧窮。因為農民們擁有大自然里的東西，而他們沒有。

【1】B細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)He wanted to show his son how poor people were there. They spent several days on a farm.可知他想讓他的兒子看看在農場上窮人們是如何生活的。所以選B。

【2】D推理判斷題。根據(jù)One day his father took him on a trip to a place.可知文中只說有一天他帶著他的兒子去了農場，并沒有說多久去一次。 所以選D。

【3】A細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù) “It was great, Dad,” the son answered. 可知兒子認為這次旅行很棒。所以選A。

【4】C細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)We have expensive lanterns (燈), but they have stars above their heads at night.可知男孩認為農場上的人在晚上可以看到很多星星。所以選C。
