A
I spent a lot of time making a large shelf for my cave. I found a big tree and chopped it down. This took three days. Then, I chopped off the branches. This took another two days. After that, I chopped the wood away from one side, and then from the other side. This took more than one month. Altogether it took forty-two days. In England, two men with a good saw could have made six of these shelves from that tree in half a day.
I also spent a lot of time looking after my corn and rice crops. I had to protect them from wild animals and birds, so I made a fence around them. I shot some of the birds and hung them up near the corn. After that, all the other birds stayed away. I used one of the old swords I had taken from the ship to cut down the corn when it was ready. I was very proud of my corn and rice and worked hard to increase my crops. A few years later, I would have enough corn to make bread. I had to find a way to grind the corn into flour, but the rocks on the island were not hard enough. I finally discovered that a very hard piece of wood would do. I used some cloth to separate the meal from the husks. Not having an oven, I made some square pots with lids and covered them with hot ash. This baked the dough, and I had bread! I made my cave bigger again to hold the corn and flour so that I could make bread whenever I needed to.
I sometimes wondered how I could get to the land which was visible from the other side of the island. I went to the ship's boat that was blown onto the beach in the shipwreck. However, I could not get it to the water. It was too heavy. I tried many different ways of doing it, but none of them were successful.

【分析】
这是一篇文学类阅读理解题，围绕《鲁滨逊漂流记》的节选内容设置题目，涵盖细节理解、词义猜测、事件排序三类题型。解题思路为：1. 先明确题干问题指向，带着问题回原文定位对应段落或语句；2. 对比选项与原文信息，排除不符合的错误选项；3. 事件排序题需梳理原文事件的先后逻辑，匹配选项；4. 词义猜测题结合上下文语境推断单词含义。
【解析】
1. 题1：定位第一段，原文提到制作大架子耗时42天，而英国两人用锯子半天可做6个，说明作者没有锯子，耗时很久，对应选项C。A项原文未提及“愚蠢错误”；B项与原文“自己完成制作”矛盾；D项原文未提到做独木舟，故排除A、B、D，选C。
2. 题2：定位第二段，原文明确“made a fence around them”（做栅栏）、“shot some of the birds and hung them up near the corn”（挂鸟的尸体在玉米旁），对应选项D。A项未提及日夜看守；B项未提到划分洞穴；C项剑是用来砍玉米的，不是放在周围，排除A、B、C，选D。
3. 题3：事件排序，梳理第二段制作面包的顺序：先找到磨玉米成粉的方法（a）→分离谷物和外壳（c）→制作带盖的方锅（d）→用方锅烤面团（b），对应顺序a-c-d-b，选A。
4. 题4：定位最后一段，“visible”修饰“land”，结合“from the other side of the island”，可知是“能被看到的”，对应选项B。A（触摸）、C（听到）、D（闻到）均不符合语境，选B。
5. 题5：定位最后一段，原文明确“It was too heavy”，对应选项D。A（太小）、B（太轻）、C（太大）与原文不符，选D。
