【3】句意：把這個(gè)炭籃子帶去河邊，然后給我?guī)б换@子水回來(lái)。

house房子；beach沙灘；bridge橋；river河。根據(jù)后文說(shuō)要打水，可知此處是帶去了河邊，故選D。

【4】句意：這個(gè)男孩按他祖父說(shuō)的做了，但是所有的水在他回家之前就漏光了。

【5】句意：他告訴祖父很難用籃子裝水。

difficult困難的；interesting有趣的；possible可能的；popular受歡迎的。根據(jù)前文，可知男孩一直無(wú)法成功用籃子打回水，所以此處他是覺(jué)得很難，故選A。

【6】句意：你還不夠努力。

【7】句意：他悲傷地說(shuō)：“看，爺爺，這是沒(méi)用的�！�

sadly悲傷地；hopefully充滿(mǎn)希望地；shyly害羞地；carefully小心地。根據(jù)前文，可知他又沒(méi)成功，所以此處是很悲傷地說(shuō)，故選A。

【8】句意：它從一個(gè)骯臟的舊煤炭籃子變成了一個(gè)干凈的，從里到外都是。

white白色的；clean干凈的；small小的；long長(zhǎng)的。根據(jù)前文的change，可知要和dirty相反，所以應(yīng)該是表示“干凈的”，故選B。

【9】句意：孩子，你在讀這本書(shū)時(shí)可能不能理解或記住所有。

somebody某人；something某事；anybody任何人；everything一切。根據(jù)前文，可知男孩完全看不懂這本書(shū)，故選D。
