六、阅读理解
A crow(乌鸦)wants to drink, but he
can't find water. He looks here and there.
At last, he cries, "I can see a jar(罐子) and
there is some water in it." He tries to get
the water, but he can't. "How can I get the
water?" he cries, "I can put my beak(鸟喙)
quite close(靠近) to it."But still(仍然) he can't
drink. "What can I do? I want to drink."
He looks here and there, then he picks
up a small stone(石头) with his beak and
carries it to the jar of water and drops it into
the jar. "Soon the water will be high in the
jar, and I can drink," says the crow.
So he begins to do that until(直到) the
water is high enough to drink.

1. 根据原文第一段“A crow wants to drink, but he can't find water.”可知乌鸦正在寻找水，对应选项B；2. 根据原文最后一段“So he begins to do that until the water is high enough to drink.”可知乌鸦现在喝不到水是因为水位不够高，对应选项D；3. 根据原文“carries it to the jar of water and drops it into the jar”，drop表示“把……放进……里”，对应选项A。

一、词形转换

4. aren't(同音词)
5. those(对应词)

3. that和is的缩略形式为that's。
4. aren't的发音为/ɑːnt/，同音词为aunt，发音相同，意为“阿姨；姑妈”。
5. those意为“那些”，对应词（近指）为these，意为“这些”。

7. it是第三人称单数代词，复数形式为they。
