七、任务型阅读
(2025 南京模拟)Long ago, a raja lived in India. His people were rice farmers. The raja said to them, "Give me most of your rice, and I will store it. When the time of famine comes, everyone will have rice to eat." So each year, the raja took most of the people's rice and stored it.
For many years, the rice grew well. Then one year the rice did not grow, and there was a famine.
"Give us rice!" the people begged.
"No!" cried the raja. "The famine may last a long time. I must have the rice for myself. A raja must not go hungry!"
One day, an elephant was carrying two big baskets of rice to the raja.
A village girl named Rani noticed something. A little rice was falling from one of the baskets. She walked behind the elephant and caught the falling rice in her skirt.
Rani took all the rice to the raja.
"This rice fell from one of the elephant's baskets, and I'm returning it to you," she said.
"I wish to give you a reward for returning my rice," the raja said. "Ask me for anything."
"Oh, Raja," said Rani. "I do not need any reward. But if you wish, you may give me one grain of rice."
"One grain of rice?" cried the raja. "That's not enough!"
"Very well," said Rani. "Today, you can give me a single grain of rice. Then tomorrow you can double it and give me two grains of rice. The next day, four grains of rice and so on for thirty days."
"That's not much of a reward," said the raja. "But you shall have it."
And the raja gave Rani a single grain of rice. The next day, Rani got two grains of rice.
On the 9th day, Rani got 256 grains of rice.
"This girl is not very clever," thought the raja. "There was more rice in her skirt. Why didn't she keep it?"
On the 16th day, Rani received 32,768 grains of rice. On the 27th day, the raja delivered 64 baskets of rice to Rani.
"One grain of rice is turning into a lot," the raja thought. "But I shall give her the reward, as a raja should."
On the final day, 256 elephants carried the last of the rice to Rani—536,870,912 grains.
"What will you do with this rice?" asked the raja. "I have no more."
"I will give it to all the hungry people," said Rani. "And I will leave you a basket. From now on, you'll only take as much rice as you need. Promise?"
"I promise," said the raja. And from then on, the raja was truly good, as a raja should be.

解析
【分析】
这是一篇故事类任务型阅读题,解题思路如下:
1. 首先通读全文,梳理故事主线:印度的Raja向农民征收稻米,承诺饥荒时赈灾,却在饥荒时拒绝百姓请求;女孩Rani归还掉落的稻米,选择了“每天稻米数量翻倍,持续30天”的奖励,最终获得大量稻米并分给百姓,促使Raja转变。
2. 对于1-8题的填空题,需结合故事的情节发展(开端、承诺、信任、拒绝、奖励、约定时长、Raja的认知转变、结局),在原文中定位对应关键词,提取信息填空。
3. 第9题是推理题,要根据故事结尾Raja的承诺和转变,推断他再次遇到饥荒时的行为;第10题需从原文中找到能支撑该推断的原句。
【解析】
1. 根据原文第一句“Long ago, a raja lived in India.”,可知Raja居住的地点是India,故填India。
2. Raja对百姓说“Give me most of your rice, and I will store it. When the time of famine comes, everyone will have rice to eat.”,这是他做出的承诺,故填promised。
3. 百姓按照Raja的要求每年上交大部分稻米,说明他们信任Raja的承诺,故填trusted。
4. 饥荒时百姓请求Raja给稻米,Raja回答“No!”,即拒绝了百姓的请求,故填refused。
5. Rani归还稻米后,Raja提到“I wish to give you a reward for returning my rice”,此处对应“奖励”,故填reward。
6. Rani提出奖励要求时说“...and so on for thirty days.”,明确了持续的天数,故填30/thirty。
7. Raja一开始觉得这个奖励微不足道,后来发现稻米数量剧增,意识到自己的错误,故填mistake。
8. 最后部分讲述了故事的最终结果,属于故事的结局,故填Ending。
9. 根据故事结尾Raja承诺“From now on, you'll only take as much rice as you need.”以及他“truly good”的转变,可推断再遇饥荒时他会把食物分给饥饿的百姓,故回答He would give most of his food to all the hungry people.(言之有理即可)。
10. 能支撑上述推断的原句是故事最后一句“And from then on, the raja was truly good, as a raja should be.”。
