阅读下列短文,回答后面的问题

  Phillip is fourteen this year. He studies in a middle school. He doesn't do any housework at home. He usually watches football matches on TV or goes out to play football with his friends after school. His mother and sister do all housework.

  His father went to New York on business last Friday. And the next day his sister Tina was ill. His mother took her to see a doctor. The doctor told her to be in hospital. His mother had to look after her there. At first the boy could find some food in the fridge and cupboard. But on the third day there was only some uncooked(未烹饪的) vegetable and meat left. He had to bay a cook book and did all what it said. But sometimes he put the pepper in the milk or sugar in the soup. Of course, they were terrible and he was often hungry.

  A week later Tina came out of hospital. When his mother came back, it was a fearful mess(凌乱不堪) in the rooms. Phillip told her all about it. His mother and sister had a good laugh over that. Now the boy stands in the kitchen and watches what his mother does. He thinks it's necessary(必要的) for him to learn to do the housework.

1.What's Phillip?

2.What's Phillips favourite sport?

3.When was Tina in hospital?

4.Why did Philip buy a cook book?

5.Why did Phillip begin to learn to cook?

答案:
解析:

  这是一篇介绍一个名叫Phillip的男孩,由于平时不做任何家务,后来吃尽了苦头,才认识到学会做家务事是很有必要的。短文后面提出了五个问题。

  1.该句是在问主人公的身份。Phillip是一个14岁的孩子,在中学学习,说明他是一个中学生。其答案应为:He's a middle school student.

  2.该句是在问Phillip的爱好。从短文中所讲的“He usually watches football matches an TV or goes out to play football with his friends after school.”就能看出,他喜欢足球。故应回答:His favourite sport is football.

  3.这是一个推算题。短文中已经提到,Phillip的父亲是上周五去纽约的,第二天他的妹妹生病了,那自然是星期六。答案为:She was ill last Saturday.

  4.该题是在问Phillip买烹饪书的原因。Phillip在两天时间里把所有的熟食都吃完了,其余都是生的,他要是学不会烹饪,就要挨饿。他买书的原因当然是要学会做饭。应当回答:Because he wanted to cook some food.

  5.该题是问Phillip学习烹饪的原因。这在短文中已经明确地告诉我们,他认为这对他很有必要。所以,其答案是:Because he think it's necessary to learn to do that.
