Question

One day a famous teacher was walking with his student. On the way, they saw a lake. They stopped and the teacher told the student, “I’m thirsty. Get me some water from that lake.”

Just when the student reached the lake, a cow was walking in the lake. So the water became very dirty. He thought “I can’t give the dirty water to my teacher!”

He came back and told the teacher, “The water is very dirty. We can’t drink it.” After about half an hour, the teacher asked the student to get some water again. So he went back to the lake.

But the lake was still dirty. So he told the teacher the same thing. After some time, the teacher asked him to go back again. But this time, he found the water was clear. The mud in the water came to the bottom. So he got some water.

试题分析：本文讲述了一个老师让学生去湖里打水。这个学生第一次打水时一头牛把水弄脏了，他没有打水。第二次去时，水还是很脏。到第三次他去了，水清澈了，他把水打来了。老师告诉他，你的思想就像这一样，不要打扰它，只需要时间，让它沉静下来就可以。

1.C细节理解题。根据They stopped and the teacher told the student, “I’m thirsty. Get me some water from that lake.”可知老师让学生去湖里给他取些水来，故选C。

2.B推理判断题。根据文中可知这个学生第一次取水时，一头牛把水弄脏了，于是再一次去时，水还没有清澈，最后过了一段时间，他再次去的时候，水清澈了，他打了些水回来，故推断这个学生共去湖边三次，故选B。

3.A细节理解题。根据Just when the student reached the lake, a cow was walking in the lake. So the water became very dirty. 可知一头牛把湖里的水弄脏了，故选A。

4.C推理判断题。根据Your mind is also like that! When it is bothered（被打扰）, just let it be. Give it some time.可知老师告诉他的学生，当思维被打扰时，什么也不要做，故选C。

5.受到打扰时，什么也不要做，故推断老师这是在教学生一些有用的东西，故选A。
