答案： 1 A 根据空后的because they had a beautiful hen which laid an egg every day及下文中the gold eggs可推知，这个商人家里因母鸡会下金蛋而富裕。
2 B 根据下文中the gold eggs可推知，这不是一枚普通的鸡蛋，而是一枚金蛋。
3 C 根据下一句“He wanted to become a millionaire overnight.”可知，他想一夜暴富。由此可推知，他对他曾经每天所得到的不满足。
4 D 根据下文中“He decided to kill the hen and get all the gold eggs.”可知，他决定杀鸡取卵。这是因为他想要一次性得到母鸡肚中所有的金蛋。
5 A 根据空前one day he thought hard可知，他在努力思考；根据下一句可知，他决定杀鸡取卵。由此可推知，这里说的是他最终想出了一个一次性得到母鸡肚中所有的金蛋的计划。
6 B 根据句意可知，第二天当母鸡下了一枚金蛋时，这个商人抓住鸡，拿出锋利的刀子剁去鸡脖子，把鸡的身体切开。
7 A 根据常识可知，鸡被杀，应流下很多血。由此可推知，这里指的是除了血什么都没有。
8 C 根据空后because he would not get even one single gold egg可知，他将连一个金蛋都得不到了。由此可推知，这个商人对此很失望。
9 B 他本过着每天一枚金蛋的惬意生活，但现在他自己使得他的生活不幸福。此处表示转折。
