问题     Uncle Li and Uncle Wang are good friends. They live next to each other and their farms are both at the foot of the mountain. So they can help each other. But neither of them likes to use his head. They’re both poor though they work hard. Most villagers have built new houses, but they still live in the low and broken houses. They never find out why.
    Once Uncle Li went to the town to buy some medicine for his wife. In the town he heard apples in a city were expensive. He told Uncle Wang about it as soon as he went back. They decided to carry some apples to the city. They borrowed some money from their friends and bought nearly 1, 000 kilograms of apples in the villages and carried them to the city on a tractor. Bad luck! A lot of apples had already been carried there when they arrived. A few days later they had to sell them at a low price. They felt unhappy and returned to their village.
    "I can’t understand why we sustained(蒙受)losses in business while others always profit(盈利), " Uncle Li asked one day.
    "The tractor was too small, " Uncle Wang said without thinking. "We’ll carry more apples on a truck next time!"
    "I agree!" said Uncle Li. "How foolish we were!"
Which of the following is TRUE?

选项 A、The two farmers found out why they were poor.
B、The two farmers will soon get rich.
C、Neither of the farmers is clever.
D、The two farmers decided to buy a truck.

答案C

解析 A项说这两个农民找到他们很穷的原因了。根据文章的意思,他们卖苹果亏本之后分析不到苹果卖不出去的真正原因是因为苹果太多供过于求,反而认为是苹果运的太少了,所以根本没有找到自己很穷的原因;B项说这两个农民很快就会富有起来的,根据选项A的分析,B项也不可能;C项说两个农民都不聪明,根据选项A的分析知道C是对的;D项说这两个农民打算买一辆卡车,文中没有提到。所以答案选C。
