【解析】

本文介绍了两只青蛙掉到深坑里后，拼命地想跳出来。别的青蛙都认为这是不可能的，一只青蛙听从了大家的建议从而放弃了努力，最后死在了坑里。而另一只耳聋的青蛙以为大家是在鼓励它们，不懈的努力，终于跳了出来。故事告诉我们语言有决定人生死的力量，我们要正确看待和使用它。

1.细节理解题。根据“When the other frogs saw how deep the pit is. They told the two frogs that they were as good as(几乎相当于) dead. The two frogs didn't believe what they said and tried their best to jump up out of the pit.”当其他青蛙看到坑有多深时。它们告诉这两只青蛙，你们就等死吧。这两只青蛙不相信它们说的话，尽力从坑里跳出来。可知，这里的pit是指深坑。图片A符合。故选A。

2.细节理解题。根据“The other frogs kept telling them to stop, and that they were as good as dead.”其他青蛙不停地叫它们停下来，说你们就等死吧。可知，其他的青蛙劝它们放弃。故选D。

3.细节理解题。根据“Finally, one of the two frogs believed what the other frogs were saying and gave up.”最后，其中一只青蛙相信了其他青蛙的话，放弃了。可知，因为其他青蛙的话，它失去了活下去的希望。故选B。

4.细节理解题。根据“He thought they were encouraging him all the time.”可知，它以为它们一直在鼓励它。故选A。

5.主旨大意题。根据“He thought they were encouraging him all the time.”它以为它们一直在鼓励它。所以才跳出来了。可知，鼓励能帮助人。故选B。
