The farmer took me to his house. Everybody was eating dinner when we arrived. The farmer asked his wife what she thought of me. At first, she thought I was a terrible little insect. She was frightened of me, the way British ladies were frightened of spiders. Then, when she saw that I understood what was happening, she lost her fear. She soon became a good friend.
The farmer put me on the table, and he gave me something to eat and drink. The farmer's son, who was about ten years old, then reached forward and picked me up. He held me in the air by my legs, and I was very frightened. The farmer was angry with his son, and ordered him to put me down. Then he slapped his son's face very hard, and told him to leave the table. I remembered how children could be cruel to little animals, and I decided to make friends with the boy. I used signs to show the farmer that I wanted him to forgive his son. The farmer smiled, and told his son to return to the table. When he sat down again, I went to the boy and kissed his hand.
The family cat came into the room during dinner. I was very scared of this huge animal, but I decided not to show my fear. I walked up and down in front of the animal for a while, and the enormous cat seemed frightened of me! Then the nurse brought in the baby of the family, who was about one year old. The baby saw me, and wanted to play with me. It put me into its mouth and I thought it would eat me. I cried out very loudly, and the baby dropped me. Luckily, the mother caught me, or I would have been killed in the fall.
After dinner, the farmer's wife put me onto her bed to sleep. She covered me with a handkerchief, and I soon fell asleep.
I was woken by a strange noise on the bed. I looked up, and there were two enormous rats on the bed—they were as big as dogs! I took out my sword and attacked them. I killed one of the rats, and the other one ran away. Now I knew that it was dangerous to be small!
When the farmer's wife came into the room, she saw the body of the rat on the bed. She was very happy that I was not hurt.
The farmer and his wife had a daughter. She was nine years old, and she became my friend. She looked after me very well, and she taught me many things. She told me that the name of the country was Brobdingnag. She gave me lessons in their language. I called her Glumdalclitch, which is the word for "little nurse" in their language. She called me Grildrig, which means "little man" in their language.

【分析】
这是一篇节选于《格列佛游记》的记叙文阅读理解，解题的核心思路是先勾画每道题干的关键信息，带着问题回原文对应段落定位内容，再将选项和原文信息逐一比对排除错误项：
1. 第7题抓取关键词"farmer's son do"，直接定位到第二段找农民儿子的对应行为；
2. 第8题抓取关键词"walk up and down in front of the cat"，定位第三段找该行为的动机；
3. 第9题是词义猜测题，结合前文农夫惩罚儿子、格列佛想要和男孩交朋友的情节逻辑，推导划线词的含义；
4. 第10题需要逐个核对四个选项的表述和原文内容是否一致，排除和原文矛盾的错项得到正确答案。
【解析】
7. 根据第二段原文"The farmer's son, who was about ten years old, then reached forward and picked me up. He held me in the air by my legs"可知，农民的儿子抓住格列佛的腿把他举到空中，A选项完全符合原文；B选项把格列佛放嘴里的是一岁的婴儿，C选项教格列佛语言的是农民的女儿，D选项是格列佛主动亲吻男孩的手，均不符合题意。
8. 根据第三段原文"I was very scared of this huge animal, but I decided not to show my fear. I walked up and down in front of the animal for a while"可知，格列佛虽然害怕大猫，但决定不暴露自己的恐惧，所以才在猫面前来回走动，D选项符合原文逻辑；A选项体型像狗的是后文出现的老鼠，B选项是走动之后猫产生的反应而非格列佛走动的原因，C选项原文没有提到格列佛准备攻击猫，均错误。
9. 前文提到农夫打了儿子并命令他离开餐桌，格列佛想要和男孩交朋友，于是用手势示意农夫宽恕自己的儿子，forgive含义为原谅，对应选项里的excuse（作动词表宽恕、原谅），A警告、B惩罚、D满足均不符合语境。
10. 逐一核对选项：A选项原文提到格列佛只杀死了一只老鼠，另一只逃跑了，表述错误；B选项原文出现的家庭成员为农夫、妻子、十岁儿子、九岁女儿、一岁婴儿，共5人，加上护士也不属于家庭成员，表述错误；C选项最初是农夫的妻子害怕格列佛，并非格列佛害怕农夫妻子，表述错误；D选项根据最后一段"She looked after me very well, and she taught me many things"可知，格列佛确实从农民的女儿那里学到了很多东西，表述正确。
