问题 Frenchmenattach great importance to education.They regard the cultivation of children asa social obligation.French education mixes warm romantic humor into itscareful and severe education.I have ever heard such a story:It tookplace in an ordinary French family.One day,when the boy was playingbasketball,the ball hit a vase off the shelf with its mouth knocked off a largepiece.The vase was an antique handed down through generations from BourbonDynasty.To cover the great trouble,the boy glued the pieces together and putthe vase back to its place panic-stricken.Thatevening his mother noticed the change on it.At dinnertime,she asked her boyif he had broken the vase.Being scared of punishment,the boy said by a suddeninspiration that a cat jumped in from the window and knocked the vase off theshelf.His mother was quite clear that her son waslying,for all the windowswere closed before her leaving.However,she just said that it seemed it washer carelessness not to have the window tightly closed.Beforegoing to bed,the boy found a note on his bed,on which he was asked to go tothe study.The boy had thought he had gotten by under false pretences,but thenfelt he couldn't dodge the misfortune.Now that he had already lied,he made uphis mind no matter what his mother said,he would disavow to the end.Onseeing her son enter in fear,his mother took out a chocolate box and gave onepiece of the chocolates to her son."Baker,this chocolate is a reward foryou,for you created a cat with your special imagination."Then,she putanother chocolate in his hand."This chocolate is a reward for yourability to restore.But the glue you used is for restoring paper materials;torestore a vase needs higher special technique.Tomorrow,let's bring the vaseto the artists to see how they make acraftworkintact as it was."With that,she took the third chocolate."The lastchocolate stands for my apology.I shouldn't have laid a vase in a place whereit could so easily fall down.I wish you hadn't been scared,my littlesweetheart.""But,Mom,I..."The boy tried to make something clear,but he awkwardlyuttered nothing but some words."Our talk is over.Good night,Baker!"She gave a soft kiss on his forehead and walked out of the study.Thefollowing days were the same as before.The only change was that the boy hadnever told a lie since then.Noscolding.It looks unimaginably queer.In fact,the three chocolates are thealarm in the boy's heart all the time.Sometimes,no punishment itself is akind of punishment.What does the underlined word“dodge”in the 4th paragraph probably mean?查看材料A.Avoid.B.Cover.C.Rescue.D.Bear.

选项 A.Avoid.
B.Cover.
C.Rescue.
D.Bear.

答案 A

解析词汇题。根据第四段中的“The boy had thought he had gotten by under false pretences，but then felt he couldn’t dodge the misfortune．Now that he had already lied，he made up hismind no matter what his mother said，he would disavow tothe end”可知，小男孩原本以为自己已经蒙混过关了，没想到母亲让他去书房，看来自己没能躲过“做坏事被发现”的不幸，但他既然已经撒了谎，就决定要否认到底。dodge the misfortune表示“躲避不幸”，A项avoid与dodge意义最接近。故本题选A。
