五、新考法 阅读短文，完成任务。
A little ant is very thirsty. He walks to a river to drink water. But he slips and falls into the river. The water pulls him away. He cannot swim. He is afraid.
A kind dove sits in a tree. She sees the ant in trouble. She wants to help. Quickly, she picks a leaf with her mouth. She drops the leaf near the ant. The little ant climbs onto the leaf. The leaf is like a boat. It carries him to the dry land. The ant is safe. He says “Thank you!” to the dove.
A few days later, the same dove sits in the tree. A hunter(猎人) comes. He sees the dove. He raises his bow and arrow and wants to shoot her. The little ant sees this too. He knows he must help his friend. He runs fast to the hunter. He bites the hunter’s foot very hard.
“Ouch!” shouts the hunter. He drops his bow and arrow. The dove hears the loud shout. She feels the danger. She quickly flies away to a safe place. The little ant is happy. He helps his friend, just like his friend helps him. Good friends always help each other.

【分析】首先，任务一需结合短文情节梳理故事发展顺序，匹配四幅图的场景；任务二需从短文中提取关键信息，对应句子空缺处的单词。先明确短文情节：蚂蚁口渴→落水→鸽子救蚂蚁→猎人射鸽→蚂蚁报恩，再对应图片和句子完成任务。
【解析】任务一：根据短文，蚂蚁先落水（对应第2幅图），被鸽子救到叶子上（对应第1幅图），之后猎人举弓射鸽子（对应第3幅图），最后蚂蚁咬猎人脚（对应第4幅图），故排序为2、1、3、4。任务二：1. 由短文“A little ant is very thirsty. He walks to a river to drink water.”得答案；2. 由短文“A kind dove sits in a tree.”得“kind”，也可替换为“friendly”；3. 由短文“He bites the hunter’s foot very hard.”得答案；4. 由短文“He raises his bow and arrow and wants to shoot her.”（her指鸽子）得答案。
【答案】任务一:2 1 3 4；任务二:1. thirsty; drink 2. friendly/kind 3. foot 4. dove
