【解析】本文叙述了史密斯先生和他的儿子Yoke从格林先生那里租船去钓鱼，开始他们没有钓到鱼，就换了一个地方，在这里他们钓到许多鱼了，想第二天还来同一个地方钓鱼，于是儿子就想 在船上做一个标记，认为下次来的时候就能找到同一个地方，父亲认为格林先生不会给他们同一艘船，那样做是没有用的。

1.细节理解题。根据Mr. Smith and his son Yoke rent（租）a boat from Mr. Green.可知，史密斯先生从格林先生那里租船。故选D。

2.细节理解题。根据They start to fish but get nothing.可知，期初，他们没有捕到鱼。故选A。

3.细节理解题。根据I can make a mark（标记）on the side（边）of the boat.”可知，Yoke想要在船上在一个标记来方便找到同一个钓鱼的地方。故选C。

4.推理判断题。根据His father laughs and says,That's foolish（愚蠢的）! Mr. Green doesn't give us the same boat every time.可知，史密斯先生的意思就是如果格林先生每次给他的船一样的话，他就能找到同样的地方。在船上做一个标记，如果一片水域的水深都一样，即使用同一艘船，他们也同样找不到那个地方，所以斯密斯先生和Yoke都是愚蠢的。故选。
