There was once a man called Mr.Flowers, and flowers were his only joy in life. He spent all his spare time in one of his four glass-houses and grew flowers of every color, with long and difficult names, for competition. He tried to grow a rose of a new color to win the silver cup for the Rose of the Year.
Mr.Flowers’ glass-houses were close to a middle school. Boys of around thirteen years of age were often tempted(引诱) to throw a stone or two at one of Mr.Flowers’ glass-houses. So Mr.Flowers did his best to be in or close by his glass-houses at the beginning and end of the school day.
But it was not always possible to be on watch at those times. Mr. Flowers has tried in many ways to protect his glass, but nothing that he had done had been useful. He had been to school to report to the headmaster, but this had not done any good. He had tried to drive away the boys that threw stones into his garden. But the boys could run faster than he could,and they laughed at him from far away. He had even picked up all the stones that he could find around his garden , so that the boys would have nothing to throw, but they soon found others.
At last Mr.Flowers had a good idea. He put up a large notice made of good,strong wood, some metres away from the glass-houses. On it he had written the words: DO NOT THROW STONES AT THIS NOTICES. After this, Mr.Flowers had no further trouble:the boys wee much more tempted to throw stones at the notice than at the glass-houses.

(答案→)C 解析：这篇短文主要讲述了Mr Flowers嗜花如命，他种花的暖房位于一所学校附近。一些男孩经常朝他种花的暖房上扔石头。尽管他绞尽脑汁，想尽了一切办法，都无济于事。最后Mr Flowers想出了一个高招。他挂起了一个结实的布告牌，上面写着“请不要朝布告牌扔石块”。孩子们的兴趣于是转向了这块木牌，Mr Flowers自此可以高枕无忧了。【小题1】细节理解题。根据短文to win the silver cup for the Rose of the Year.的描述可知，动词不定式在句中作目的状语，也是Mr flowers的愿望所在。故应选C。【小题2】细节理解题。根据短文Mr.Flowers’ glass-houses were close to a middle school. Boys of around thirteen years of age were often tempted(引诱) to throw a stone or two at one of Mr.Flowers’ glass-houses.的描述可知，孩子们朝Mr flowers种花的暖房上扔石头。故应选A。【小题3】细节理解题。根据短文So Mr.Flowers did his best to be in or close by his glass-houses at the beginning and end of the school day.的描述可知，Mr.Flowers在孩子们上学前或上学后都会在他的玻璃花房附近。故应选C。【小题4】细节理解题。联系上下文，为了保护自己的玻璃房子不受损坏，Mr.Flowers想尽了各种办法，选项A、B所述内容均在文中有明确的阐述。故应选C。【小题5】细节理解题。根据最后一段large、good、strong等词以及布告牌上的DO NOT THROW STONES AT THIS NOTICES.可知，他制作布告牌的真正目的不是要对孩子们起警示作用，而是利用孩子们的心理，让其作为孩子们投掷的靶子。故应选C。
