  A strange woman comes to my door one day in early March.It’s a rich area so we often have people selling things   1  -dusters, make-up, frozen foods-but she doesn’t look like   2   saleswoman.She hasn’t got the patter(喋喋不休)either.She   3   smiles shyly and puts a card in my hand:“Amy Turner.Pet Portraits Undertaken.”

  I   4   my fingernail along the cheap gold edge of the card and look at her, waiting for   5  

  “I’ll paint any animal in the   6   of your own home,” Amy Turner says.“Wouldn’t you like a nice picture of your loved one? I’ve had   7   of dogs, cats, parrots, prize bulls…”

  “Prize bulls!” I can’t   8   looking up and down our street.The   9   of any of my neighbours   10   bulls in their back gardens makes me smile.

  “I don’t have any animals,” I say as we look past each other.She must be   11   some little cat or dog would come running down the hall to give the game away   12   it is the first chance I’ve had to   13   the air outside.It is one of those spring mornings when you wake up and find winter’s gone.Even the camellia in the garden   14   has flowered over-night, pink blossoms which look shocking   15   the quiet greens and greys.

  “Why are you still in your dressing gown?” Amy says, turning her   16   back to me.“It’s nearly lunchtime.Are you ill?”

  “I’m fine,” I   17  .I’m not going to tell a stranger I’ve just been sick in the toilet upstairs and would still be   18   my fingers down my throat if the doorbell hadn’t rung.But now I’m not sure what to do next.Amy is still standing there.She doesn’t seem to think that not having a pet is a good enough   19  

  “I’m starving,” she says and I smile politely, nodding the   20   you do before you say goodbye.

阅读理解

  It was Saturday when the entire summer world was bright and fresh.Tom looked at the fence, which was long and high, feeling all enthusiasm leaving him.He dipped his brush into the whitewash before moving it along the top board of the fence.He knew other boys would arrive soon with all minds of interesting plans for this day.As walking past him, they would tease him for having to work on a beautiful Saturday-which burnt him like fire.

  He, putting his hands into his pockets and taking out all he owned with the expectation of letting someone paint, found nothing that could buy half an hour of freedom.At this dark and hopeless moment, a wonderful idea occurred to him, pouring a great bright light into his mind.He took up his brush and continued to work pleasantly with calm and quietness.

  Presently, Ben Rogers came in sight-munching an apple and making joyful noises like the sound of a riverboat as he walked along.Tom went on whitewashing, paying no attention to the steamboat.

  “Hello!” Ben said, “I’m going swimming, but you can’t go, can you?”

  No answer.Tom moved his brush gently along the fence and surveyed the result.Ben came nearer.Tom’s mouth watered for Ben’s apple while he kept painting the fence.

  Ben said, “That’s a lot of work, isn’t it?”

  Tom turned suddenly saying “Here you are! Ben! I didn’t notice you.”

  “I’m going swimming,” Ben said.“Don’t you wish you could go? Or would you rather work?”

  Tom said, “Work? What do you mean ‘work’?”

  “Isn’t that work?”

  Tom continued painting and answered carelessly, “Maybe it is, and maybe it isn’t.All I know is it suits Tom Sawyer.”

  “Do you mean that you enjoy it?”

  “I don’t see why I oughtn’t to enjoy it.”

  “Does a boy have a chance to paint a fence frequently” said Tom.

  Ben stopped munching his apple.

  Tom moved his brush back and forth-stepped back to note the effect-added a little paint here and there.Ben watched every move, getting more and more interested, more and more absorbed1.After a short time, he said, “Tom, let me whitewash a little.”

  Tom seemed to be thinking for a moment before he said, “No, Aunt Polly wants this fence to be perfect.If it was the back fence, maybe you could do it.But this fence beside the street is where everybody can see it.It has to be done right.”

  “Oh, come on, let me try.I’ll be careful.Listen, Tom.I’ll give you part of my apple if you let me paint.”

  “No, Ben, I’m afraid-”

  “I’ll give you all the apple!”

  Tom handed the brush to Ben with unwillingness on his face but alacrity in his heart.While the riverboat worked and sweated in the hot sun, Tom, an artist sat in the shade close by, munching his apple, and planning how he could trick more of the boys.

  Before long there were enough boys each of whom came along the street; stopped to laugh but soon begged to be allowed to paint.By the middle of the afternoon, Tom had got many treasures while the fence had had three layers of whitewash on it.If he hadn’t run out of whitewash, he would have owned everything belonging to the boys in the village.

  Tom said to himself that the world was not so depressing after all.He had discovered a great law of human action:in order to make a man cover a thing, it is only necessary to make the thing difficult to attain.

(1)

By using “Tom continued painting and answered carelessly”, the author shows Tom ________ when he was talking to Ben.

[  ]

A.

made mistakes

B.

damaged things

C.

was natural

D.

wasn’t concentrating

B.

C.

A boy walked along Carver Street, singing a sad song. He walked with his head down. Once he looked up and noticed the sign across the empty street, painted on the side of an old house.
