Once my friend Peterson bought a pack of chicken, the brand of which was very famous at that time. But when he got home he found that the chicken had gone bad. He took the chicken back to the shop and he was paid twice of the price. We may say now he should have been satisfied but my friend would not like to stop. He decided to write a letter to Frank, president of the company, who was also the founder of the chicken brand.
About a week later he received a letter written by the president himself. In the letter he apologized to my friend for it whole –heartedly .There was also a card in the envelope ,with which my friend could get another pack of chicken in any of the shops. In the end my friend was asked to answer some questions.

2. What was the real problem of the chicken?
3. What did the shop ass istant say when you took the chicken back to the shop?
4. W hat do you think is the reason for the chicken to go bad?
5. What do you suggest we should do to get away from such problems?
Two days later, my friend also received a telephone call from the president’s office, asking whether he had received the letter as well as the card and then some other questions. Since then, my friend has always bought chicken of this brand whenever he wants to.

小題1:C細節(jié)理解題。從文章首段He took the chicken back to the shop and he was paid twice of the price.可知朋友退回變質(zhì)的雞肉，得到兩倍的賠償。所以C選項正確。
小題2:D細節(jié)理解題。從文章第一段but my friend would not like to stop. He decided to write a letter to Frank, president of the company,和下文he received a letter written by the president himself.可知他給公司老總寫了一封信，所以D選項正確。
小題3:A推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章最后Since then, my friend has always bought chicken of this brand whenever he wants to.可以推測朋友仍然信任這個品牌，故選A。
小題4:B推理判斷題。從文章中公司老總的做法可知他是個做事認真，有責任心的人，故B為正確選項。

How to Become Cleverer
Once a boy came to ask a fisherman how to become cleverer, because his mother always called him “foolish boy”.
“That’s easy,” answered the fisherman. “I know one way to make you become cleverer.”
“Really?”
“Of course. It is said a fish head is good for brain. If you eat one, you’ll become cleverer indeed. Pay only three pounds for one fish head.” The boy paid him three pounds and the fisherman cut off a fish head and handed it to him.
A raw fish head is not good—not even for a hungry boy to eat but the boy ate it up in two gulps.
“Do you feel anything?” asked the fisherman.
“Not in my head,” said the boy.
The boy lay on the ground and thought. “One whole fish costs only two pounds. I had paid him three pounds for the fish head. Why couldn’t I have the whole fish for soup, a head for brain and one pound left over?” He jumped up and shouted at the fisherman. “You thief! You are fooling me!” The fisherman laughed, saying, “The fish head works now, you see.”

A．The fish head was not in the boy’s head
B．The boy felt nothing came into his head

B．a(chǎn) fish head and one pound back
