22、 very hard for centuriesBdreamed of having a better lifeCwere poor but somewhat contentDlived a different life from their forefathers解析细节理解题。根据第一段第二、三句话“The people were poor.However，they were not unhappy.”可知，这里的村民虽然贫穷，但并非不高兴，据此推断他们对自己的生活是知足的、满意的。故选C项。A项无依据；B项非第一段所述；D项与本段最后一句话内容相反。答案C2Why did the vil
23、lagers agree to sell frogs?AThe frogs were easy money.BThey needed money to buy medicine.CThey wanted to please the visitors.DThe frogs made too much noise.解析细节理解题。根据第三段第一句话及第三句话内容可知，村民们认为这是一桩无本生意，他们所做的就是到田间捕获青蛙，这也是一件轻而易举的事情。故答案为A项。购买农药是村民因庄稼减产、儿童生病迫不得已采取的措施，故B项错误；C、D两项文中无任何提示。答案A3What might be the
