The *Adventures of Tom Sawyer* is one of the great works by Mark Twain. The book is so interesting. Even today, it is quite popular among kids. Although I am in my thirties, the book remains one of my favorites. After re - reading the book recently, I have learned an important lesson from Tom Sawyer.
In our daily lives, we are often given some boring or tiring tasks. What’s in your mind when your mom tells you to clean the floor? Have you ever wanted to complain? I think most people have.
Tom Sawyer, however, thought “differently” when he was given a boring task. One Saturday morning, Aunt Polly told Tom to paint the fence (篱笆). Tom’s friend Ben Rogers happened to walk past. Instead of complaining, Tom told Ben that he felt “excited about the task.” “Only one in a thousand—maybe even two thousand—boys can do this!” Tom said.
Tom’s words made Ben interested in the task. He even gave Tom his apple so that he could have a chance to paint the fence. If Tom had thought about nothing but complaining, he would have had a bad day painting the fence.
This story teaches me a valuable lesson: Complaining is useless. The next time you are given a boring or tiring task, don’t complain. Unlike what happens in the story of Tom Sawyer, it is unlikely that someone will come and do the work for you. However, without complaining, you’ll feel better and perhaps even do a better job!
() 1. The *Adventures of Tom Sawyer* is written by Mark Twain.

() 3. Tom Sawyer thought “differently” when he was given a boring task.
() 4. Ben Rogers is Tom’s friend.

### Ⅴ.阅读理解。（本题共20小题，每小题1.5分，满分30分）
#### A
根据短文内容，判断下列句子的正（T）误（F）。
《汤姆·索亚历险记》是马克·吐温的伟大作品之一。这本书非常有趣。即使在今天，它在孩子们中也很受欢迎。虽然我已经三十多岁了，但这本书仍然是我的最爱之一。最近重新读了这本书后，我从汤姆·索亚身上学到了重要的一课。
在我们的日常生活中，我们经常被分配一些无聊或累人的任务。当你妈妈告诉你打扫地板时，你心里在想什么？你曾经想过抱怨吗？我想大多数人都有过。
然而，当汤姆·索亚被分配到一项无聊的任务时，他的想法“与众不同”。一个星期六的早上，波莉姨妈让汤姆刷篱笆。汤姆的朋友本·罗杰斯碰巧路过。汤姆没有抱怨，而是告诉本他对这项任务感到“兴奋”。“一千个男孩中只有一个——甚至可能是两千个男孩中只有一个——能做这件事！”汤姆说。
汤姆的话让本对这项任务产生了兴趣。他甚至把他的苹果给了汤姆，这样他就有机会刷篱笆了。如果汤姆只想着抱怨，他刷篱笆的这一天会很糟糕。
这个故事给了我一个宝贵的教训：抱怨是没用的。下次当你被分配到一项无聊或累人的任务时，不要抱怨。不像汤姆·索亚的故事里发生的那样，不太可能有人会来为你做这项工作。然而，不抱怨的话，你会感觉更好，甚至可能把工作做得更好！
