Question

【题目】

Jim didn't like to be kissed. But people loved to kiss Jim! Both of his grandmothers and all of his aunts would kiss his face and say “You are just the cutest thing.”

Jim’s best friend, Ben, lived next door. Ben would always laugh at him. “Kissy Face! Kissy Face!”

Jim didn’t know what to do. He tried hiding when family came to visit. But his father always called him in to say hello. He tried wearing an old Halloween mask(面具), but his mother made him take it off so his grandmothers and aunts could see his “cute little face.” Jim even tried to make his face and hands sticky（黏糊的），but the grandmothers and aunts just wiped off the stickiness and kissed him even harder.

One day, Jim’s mother told him she had a wonderful surprise. There was going to be a new baby in the family. Jim was going to be a big brother. Jim listened but didn’t say anything. He wasn’t sure whether a baby was a wonderful surprise or not.

The big day finally came. Jim’s parents brought the new baby home. So the whole family held a big party but this time not for Jim. Soon the whole family arrived. Jim felt worried about being kissed. But the grandmothers and aunts didn’t look at Jim. They all went straight to the new baby and said, “Oh, you are just the cutest thing!” and kept kissing the baby’s face. Then one of the aunts came over to Jim. “Well, you’re a big brother now,” she said. Instead of kissing his face, she just patted his shoulder and smiled.

Jim smiled, too. Maybe his days of being “Kissy Face” were over. For him, having a new baby in the family was a wonderful surprise.

【解析】

文章大意：本文主要讲述了吉姆不喜欢被亲吻，但是家人都很喜欢亲他。有人来访时，他总是躲避或者带着面具。后来家里添了新成员，吉姆成为了哥哥，家人都喜欢亲吻新宝宝，没有人亲吻他的脸了，对他来说，家庭中有了一位新成员是一个惊喜。

【1】细节理解题。根据He tried hiding when family came to visit. 家人来拜访时，他试图躲藏起来。可知，吉姆为了不被亲吻，他试图躲起来。故选C。

【2】细节理解题。根据For him, having a new baby in the family was a wonderful surprise. 对他来说，在家里有个新孩子是一个惊喜。可知，吉姆最后当大哥的感觉很好。故选D。

【3】最佳标题。本题考查主旨题。文章通过第一段和第二段的背景描述，引出Jim被人称作Kissy Face 这个话题，文章第三段围绕Kissy Face描写了Jim被长辈亲吻以及他作出的应对措施，第四段和第五段描写代了弟弟出生并成为了新的被亲吻的对象，最后一段描写了Jim 摆脱Kissy Face 称号后欣喜的心情。所以文章整体都是围绕 Kissy Face这个主题进行叙述，故正确答案为选项A。
