Question

    One day when government officers were rebuilding a barn(粮仓), they found a mouse hole in a corner and used smoke to force the mice inside the hole to come out.

A while later they saw mice running out, one after another. Then, everyone thought that all the mice had come out. But just as they were about to start to clean up, they saw two mice  getting out of the exit of the hole. After some hard tries, the mice finally got out. The strange thing was that after they came out of the hole, they did not run away at once. It seemed that  one was trying to bite (咬) the tail of the other. Everyone was puzzled, so they stepped closer to take a look. They realized that one of the mice was blind and could not see anything, and the other one was trying to allow the blind mouse to bite on his tail so he could pull the blind one with him to run away.

After seeing what happened, everyone was speechless and lost in thought.  During  meal time, the group of officers sat down in a circle and started to talk about what happened to the  two mice. One man said, “I think the relationship between those two mice was that of emperor and minister.” Another man said: I think the relationship between those two mice was husband and wife. Then a third person said: I think the relationship between those two mice was that of mother and son. The others thought for a while, and felt this was more reasonable. At that moment, the last man looked at other people, and asked: Why did those two mice have to have a certain relationship? Suddenly, the air froze. The group looked back at the him and all lowered their heads in shame, and did not dare to reply. In fact, the greatest love does not depend on benefit, friendship or blood relationship. Instead, it is based on no relationship.

【解析】

这篇文章通过两只老鼠在面临生命危险之时的故事，告诉了我们真爱不是建立在利益、友谊或血缘关系之上的，而是建立在没有关系的基础上。

But just as they were about to start to clean up, they saw two mice getting out of the exit of the hole. .”可知，官员用烟雾逼迫老鼠都出洞了。然后，每个人都认为所有的老鼠都出来了。但是正当他们要开始清理的时候，他们看到两只老鼠从洞里跑了出来。可知，这些老鼠不是一块出来的。故选F。

2.细节理解题。根据文章第二段“They realized that one of the mice was blind and could not see anything, and the other one was trying to allow the blind mouse to bite on his tail so he could pull the blind one with him to run away.”可知只是其中一只老鼠眼睛看不见。故选F。

5.主旨大意题。根据第三段“In fact, the greatest love does not depend on benefit, friendship or blood relationship. Instead, it is based on no relationship.”可知，最伟大的爱不是取决于利益、友谊或者血缘关系，是来自于我们的内心并非是任何关系。故选T。
