"That isn't my job. I have (3)       school work to do. " Hearing this,his father said, "I promise (許諾) to give you the best present if you (4)       finish one year's work."Tom thought for a while and (5)       Starting one Saturday,the boy got up early and worked (6)       until evening,just like any other farmer. Time passed quickly. Tom's crops (莊稼) grew well. (7)       the last day of the year,the father called his son to him. "I'm happy to see that you have worked very hard the whole year," said the father. "Now,tell me (8)       you want."

  The boy smiled and showed his father a big piece of bread made from his wheat (小麥) ."I've already got the (9)       present. No pains,no gains. I think this is what you wanted (10)       to know."His father was quite pleased to hear that.

(   ) 1. A. asked   B. let   C. made   D. stopped

1. A ask sb. to do sth.意為"要某人做某事"，而let/make sb. do sth.意為"讓某人做某事，使某人做某事"。

2. B從That isn't my job.可知Tom對他父親的意見不高興。

3. C此句意為"我有許多作業(yè)要做"。

too much意為"太多"，修飾不可數(shù)名詞；much too意為"太，非常"，修飾形容同或副詞;a lot意為"太，非常"，常修飾動詞、形容詞或副詞�？崭窈蟮膚ork是不可數(shù)名詞，所以只能跟B和C. 但B語義不符。

4. D如果你能完成一年的勞動，我許諾送你最好的禮物。

5. C從下文Tom開始在農(nóng)場勞動可知他答應了他父親。

6. A由下文I'm happy to see that you have worked very hard the whole year.確定選A. work hard意為"辛勤勞動"；B意為"幾乎不"；C意為"慢慢地";D意為"困難地"。

7. B具體某一天要用介詞on。

8. D上文父親承諾給他最好的禮物，現(xiàn)在父親問他要什么東西作禮物。

9. C根據(jù)下文No pains,no gains.可知Tom已得到了最好的禮物。故選C。

10. D want sb. to do sth.意為"想要某人做某事"，want后面要用賓格代詞。
