五、阅读理解。
Here are three idioms. Let's have a look.
手不释卷
Lü Meng was an excellent general(将军). He came from a poor family and had no chance to go to school when he was young. He felt sad. When he became a general, the emperor of Wu encouraged him to read some books. Lü Meng took his advice, and started to study hard. When he was working, there was always a book in his hand.
专心致志
Yi Qiu was known as the most famous expert at weiqi in the state of Lu. Once he gave lessons on weiqi to two men.

As a result, though he had the same lesson together with the first man, he learned nothing.

【分析】
做此类英语阅读理解题，核心方法是“关键词定位法”：先阅读题干，划出每个问题的关键词（如人名、事件、问题核心），再带着关键词回到原文对应段落快速定位，找到与题干相关的句子，对比选项即可得出答案。本题前4题是细节理解题，直接定位原文找对应信息；第5题是推理判断题，需结合文章主旨（介绍中国成语故事）判断来源。
【解析】
1. 细节题：题干关键词为“Lü Meng, young, no school”，定位到原文第一段第二句“He came from a poor family and had no chance to go to school when he was young.”，明确吕蒙没上学的原因是家庭贫困，对应选项A。
2. 细节题：题干关键词为“encouraged Lü Meng to read”，定位到第一段第五句“When he became a general, the emperor of Wu encouraged him to read some books.”，可知鼓励吕蒙读书的是吴王，对应选项D。
