试题分析：这是一篇比较幽默的文章，文中讲到一个叫迪克的人，小时家境贫寒，父亲不幸去世后由他姑姑抚养他。姑姑在一次事故中死亡，因没钱他想给姑姑买一个较便宜的旧墓碑，可墓碑上有别人的名字，但迪克说“没关系，我姑姑不会读”。
小题1:根据上下文他父亲掉到河里失踪了，下文说他由他姑姑照顾，所以此题应是他的妈妈也不辞而别，故选D。
小题2:根据上文20年过去了，所以迪克长成了又高又壮的男人，故选A。
小题3:根据上下文他工作非常努力，她姑姑非常高兴，所以此空是他经常拿着好的礼物去看他姑姑，故选E。
小题4:根据上文他决定给他姑姑买一个墓碑，所以去了城里来到店里，故选C。
小题5:根据上下文店主说旧的墓碑便宜，但上面有别人的名字，故选B。
