　　題目

　　閱讀短文，然後根據文章內容判斷下列各句是否正確，對的用“T”、錯誤的用“F”表示。

　　1. Mr. Ford bought the sweater because it was very nice and cheap.

　　2. “Shrink” here means “become smaller”.

　　3. Mr. Ford was not good at buying things.

　　4. Mr. Ford put the sweater on as soon as he bought it.

　　5. Mr. Ford took off the sweater by himself.

　　答案

　　1. T. 第1小題的句意與文章的第1自然段意思相同，所以符合短文內容。

　　2. T. 從文章的第四自然段可知shrink的意思就是become smaller。所以符合短文內容。

　　3. T. Ford先生上午買的衣服下午穿在身上被雨水打溼後就縮小變形了，由此可知Ford先生不擅長買東西。

　　4. F. 從文章中的When he went back home he put the sweater on.可知, 他是買了帶回家才穿的。所以第四小題與短文內容不相符合。

　　5. F. 從文章的最後一段可知他是在妻子的幫助下才把衣服給脫下來的。所以與短文內容不相符合。
