问题 问答题

最后一个鸡蛋郑渊洁整个鸡家族都不甘心自己在地球上的地位——任人宰割,供人食用。鸡王决定扭转鸡家族的处境,于是就召集幕僚想办法。“要想人类放弃吃鸡很难。”一个幕僚说。他曾经用10斤鸡蛋收买了一位写东西的人,让他在报上写文章说,吃鸡容易患癌症!可人类还是照吃不误。“依我看,人类吃咱们并不是因为恨咱们,而是说明他们离不开咱们。”另一位年纪大点的幕僚说,“不如,大王下一道圣旨,命令所有母鸡停止下蛋,保证人类不会再像现在这样对待咱们了。”“停止下蛋?”鸡王吃了一惊。“对,停止下蛋。没有鸡蛋就不会再有小鸡出生,光这一点,就够人类伤脑筋的了。”幕僚说。 5分钟后,鸡王向整个鸡家族下达了圣旨:停止下蛋!当人类发现全世界所有的母鸡都不下蛋了时,地球上只剩下一个鸡蛋了。人类意识到问题的严重性了,地球上的鸡吃一只将少一只,最终灭绝。人类为此专门召开了一个紧急会议,会议的结果是制定了一部关于保护珍稀动物“鸡”的法律。鸡终于改变了卑微的地位,加入珍稀动物的行列。人们以拥有一只鸡为荣,狗和猫的地位一落千丈。在公园里常见到牵着鸡散步的达官贵人。一只鸡的售价已高达上千美元。地球上唯一的那个鸡蛋更是价值连城,光是守护它的军队就有两个旅。这个鸡蛋的妈妈是最后一个听到鸡王圣旨的,于是,她成了地球上唯一一个鸡蛋的母亲。人们将延续鸡的生命的期望寄托在她身上,给她吃最好的食物,为她建造了豪华的住宅,还让她上报纸上电视。这只母鸡日益显赫的地位渐渐引起了鸡家族其他成员的不满。同样是鸡,凭什么她吃得好,住得好,还能上电视?就因为________________!于是,在某一天的上午,另一只母鸡违抗鸡王的圣旨,公然下了一个蛋。这只母鸡立刻成了全球新闻的焦点,她的待遇马上超过了前一只母鸡。鸡家族受到了强烈的震动。紧接着第三个鸡蛋出生了。第四个鸡蛋问世了。第五个鸡蛋诞生了。第六个鸡蛋降临了。……鸡王感到大事不妙,连忙再次降旨制止母鸡下蛋,但他已经控制不了他的臣民了。所有的母鸡都想比别的鸡过得好,她们拼命地下蛋。于是,保护鸡的法律取消了。没有人牵鸡去公园了。鸡又重新出现在餐桌上了。鸡王不甘心,还想继续降旨制止母鸡下蛋,被幕僚劝阻了。幕僚说:“没有必要。因为人类已经掌握了对付鸡不下蛋的方法。”

画波浪线(编者注:下划线)的句子啰唆吗?作者这么写的作用是什么?(6分)________________________________________________________________________

答案

参考答案:不啰唆。作者这样写,从内容上看,是强调母鸡下蛋已是接连不断,无法控制;从形式上看,分段排列,增强了语势。

解析:答出其中一点即可给满分。

     Long ago, near the village of Hedley, there lived a strange and playful trickster (骗子), known

as the Hedley Kow. Sometimes it looked like an ordinary object. Sometimes it looked like a donkey

or a goat.

     One evening, as an old woman went along the path, she saw an old iron pot lying in the ditch.

"Fancy that," she said. "Nobody seems to want this old pot. I will take it home and plant pretty

flowers in it."

     When she tried to lift it, she saw that it was full of gold pieces. "Well, now, if that doesn't beat

all," she said. "I'm rich! I can buy a fine house and fancy clothes."

     The pot was heavy, so she tied her shawl around it and began to drag it home. After a while,

she stopped to rest. When she looked in the pot, she was amazed to see that it was full of silver

pieces!

     "Oh, my God!" she said. "Aren't I the lucky one! If it were gold, thieves would have been after

me. My friends might have been jealous. But I can hide these silver pieces, take out a few at a time,

and live like a queen."

     On she went, pulling the pot after her. She was nearing home now. At her gate, she looked into

the pot. What a surprise! The silver had changed into a lump (块) of iron. "Iron," she said. "Well,

now! No one will be jealous or want to steal this from me. I can use this iron to prop my door open

and let in fresh air and sunlight. Lucky me!"

     As soon as she said that, the pot began to grow and later it became a goat. Then it jumped up

and ran off down the road laughing.

     "Fancy that!" said the old woman. "I believe I have seen the Hedley Kow! Not many folks can

say that, and that's a fact. I'll just sit up by my fire tonight thinking about how lucky I was to see it

for myself. I truly must be the luckiest person in the world!"
