第8课时　[Unit 4 名著阅读]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 forty­two days. In England, two men with a good saw(锯) 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(外壳). Not having an oven, I made some square pots with lids and covered them with hot ashes(灰烬). This baked the dough(生面团), 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(海难). 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.—Adapted from Robinson Crusoe(《鲁滨逊漂流记》)(　　)1.From Paragraph 1, we know that the writer ________．A．made a foolish mistake in chopping down a big treeB．felt hopeless and couldn't have made a shelf himselfC．spent a long time making a large shelf without a sawD．made a small canoe(独木舟) with the wood he chopped down(　　)2.The writer ________ to protect his corn and rice.A．watched out for them day and nightB．divided the cave into several different partsC．put some old swords from the ship around themD．built a fence and hung some birds' bodies up near the corn(　　)3.In which order did the writer make bread successfully?a．The writer found a way to grind the corn into flour.b．The writer baked the dough with square pots.c．The writer separated the meal from the husks.d．The writer made some square pots with lids.A．a­c­d­b   B．a­d­c­b   C．b­d­c­a   D．c­b­a­d(　　)4.The underlined world “visible” in the last paragraph means “________” in Chinese.A．偏僻的   B．看得见的   C．模糊的   D．遥远的【词汇积累】chop v. 剁碎；砍　altogether adv. 完全地；总共；总而言之　increase v. 增加，增大，增多　grind v. 磨(粉)；用力挤压；碾碎　bake v. 烤，烘焙【词汇活用】从“词汇积累”中选择合适的单词，并用其适当形式填空。1．—How did you learn to ________ cakes?—I learned it on the Internet.2．Look!
