五、阅读短文,完成下列题目。
An old tiger lives in the forest. He doesn't want to look for food. He often asks other animals to bring him something to eat. He sees a monkey and says, "I'm hungry, Monkey. Go to the village and bring me a fat pig." "Oh, Tiger," says the monkey. "I can't do that now. There is another tiger over there. He also wants a fat pig. He doesn't let me get anything for you to eat. I'm afraid of him." "What?" cries the old tiger. "Show me the tiger. I will talk to him." "Come with me," says the monkey. "Now look down at the river," says the monkey. "Can you see the head, the white teeth and the big green eyes of the tiger?" "Yes, I can," cries the old tiger. "I will eat him up." With these words, the tiger jumps into the water and dies(死亡).

【分析】
本题分为两部分，第一部分是判断句子与故事内容是否相符，需将每个题干的关键词与原文对应信息逐一对比；第二部分是回答故事启示，需梳理故事中猴子的智慧与老虎的愚蠢，提炼核心寓意。做判断时要精准定位原文细节，回答问题时要结合故事逻辑总结道理。
【解析】
（一）1. 原文第一句明确提到“An old tiger lives in the forest.”，说明老虎是老的，故判断为A；
2. 原文“He often asks other animals to bring him something to eat.”表明老虎常让其他动物带食物，故判断为A；
3. 原文老虎要求猴子带“fat pig”，而非题干中的“fat sheep”，故判断为B；
4. 原文老虎跳进水是要吃“另一只老虎”（实为水中倒影），并非游泳，故判断为B；
5. 水中是老虎的倒影，并非真的另一只老虎，故判断为B。
（二）故事中猴子用智慧化解危机，老虎因愚蠢丧命，启示可围绕“依靠自身”“不要愚蠢”等角度，示例：We should live on our own./We shouldn't be foolish.
【答案】
（一）1.A 2.A 3.B 4.B 5.B；（二）We should live on our own./We shouldn't be foolish.
