Old Dan smiled, and took it. “Thank you, little miss,” he said, “It is kindly meant.”After that, Maggie went to the beach to gather shells. She never thought how fast the hours were passing until being tired. She sat down on a rock. Soon she was scared because the sea water was going up. She wanted to go home, but she found the places she had gone down easily very difficult to climb up. The stones were wet and smooth. What could poor Maggie do? She felt sad and cried.Luckily, Dan's large dog Rover jumped down from a rock! Rover raised his loud bark. The fisherman had taken his nets to the top of the cliffs (悬崖), and was laying them out in the sun when he heard the loud barking of a dog. He felt sure that it was Rover, and Rover was in trouble, so he looked over. There he saw it all.“Bless her! It is the little one that was so kind-spoken to me this morning!” he cried, and he hurried to his sons' rooms.“Quick, boys, quick!” he said. “Ge t to the boat, and row fast to the sea. There is a poor child there just waiting to be helped.” The fishermen lost no time, and soon little Maggie and Rover were rowed safely to land! Old Dan was waiting there to lift her out to give her into her mother's arms.“It was the penny that did it, madam,” he said to Mrs. Weston later. “I saw Rover looking at her when she put the penny. And I am thinking he had been looking after her all the day.”Some years later, Rover came to Maggie's home with a little note, in which was written—“Will Maggie help Rover?—his master is dead.”(1)Who rowed Maggie to land safely?A.

最初善良的麦姬以为老渔夫是乞丐送给了他一便士硬币,当麦姬在海滩上遇到危险时,渔夫的狗罗孚及时“呼救”,在老渔夫儿子的帮助下才脱离了险境。
最后,老渔夫临去世前又把狗托付给麦姬收养,诠释了当施恩于别人的时候,也会得到别人的恩赐与帮助的道理。
(1)C细节理解题。
根据文章第三段中的句子“Quick, boys, quick!” he said. “Get to the boat, and row fast to the sea. Old Dan was waiting there to lift her out to give her into her mother's arms.可知,是丹的儿子把麦姬成功解救出来!答案为C。
(2)C细节推理题。
根据短文最后一句“Will Maggie help Rover?—his master is dead.”老渔夫丹一直与他的狗罗孚生活在一起,直到他临去世前把狗托付给麦姬,麦姬的硬币感动了渔夫,渔夫的狗罗孚也在麦姬遇到危险时帮助了她,麦姬不接纳罗孚显然不合理,A答案不正确,故正确答案C。
(3)A主旨大意题。
根据文章内容可知,最初善良的麦姬以为老渔夫是乞丐送给了他一便士硬币,当麦姬在海滩上遇到危险时,渔夫的狗罗孚及时“呼救”,在老渔夫儿子的帮助下才脱离了险境。
诠释了当施恩于别人的时候,也会得到别人的恩赐与帮助的道理。
故答案A最符合题意。
(4)D标题归纳题。
纵观全文可以发现,是麦姬给老渔夫丹的一便士硬币引出了这个感人的故事。
故D答案最合理。
【点评】第3小题是考查作者的写作意图,适合用捕捉主旨大意来解题。
所谓主旨大意,也就是文章的中心思想,主题思想,中心观点,它常常针对文章的主题,作者的写作意图,文章段落的中心思想进行提问,这类题也叫归纳概括题。
做这道题时,必须在通读全文的基础上,准确把握短文的主旨大意,作者传递着一种“善有善报”的思想,诠释了当施恩于别人的时候,也会得到别人的恩赐与帮助的道理。
故A答案最符合题意。
