参考答案：D进入在线模考

After the farmers ate the corn from the second corn harvest, what did they do with the husks?
【解题思路】
1．四项均为句子，均提到they和them。
2．四项的谓语均表示加工方式(braided，bundled，used，made)。
结论：根据短文内容及前面几题可知，they可能指人，them可能指玉米。
【解析】题干问：当农民们吃完了第二次收获的玉米之后，他们用玉米皮(husks)做什么?预测和实际情况有一些出入，选项中的them不是指玉米，而是玉米皮，但这种预测的误差并不影响听力理解和做题。文章结尾提到： “After the corn was eaten，these farmers used the dried husks to make all sorts of different things like mats，moccasins，dolls and ceremonial masks．(当玉米被吃完之后，农民们用干燥的玉米皮做成各种物品，如：垫子、软鞋、玩偶以及各种仪式上使用的面具等等。)”故选D。
