【小题3】根据上下文可知,从我们开始往家赶的“那一刻”,我就开始祈祷,希望能得到,故选D。
【小题4】根据上文“go straight for the ice cream or…”和下文“go home empty-handed”可知,我们或者直接去买冰淇淋,或者空手而回。Cturn意为“转弯、掉头”,符合文意。故选C。
【小题5】根据文章上下文和常识可知,在这里,我可以得到美味的冰淇淋,所以,这个拐角意味着(meant) 快乐或失望。故选B。
【小题6】。根据 “mouth-watering excitement”和文意,得到冰淇淋我会快乐,否则就是失望。Disappointment失望,故选D。
【小题7】根据文意,我希望听到父亲主动提出买冰淇淋,对一个孩子来说,这样的声音是“beautiful”(美好的),故选D最佳,其它选项意思不符。
【小题8】根据文章上文,我期盼的声音终于来了(came),B项最佳。C项spoke的主语应该是人,而其它两项不符合文意。故选A。
【小题9】根据文章结尾处“treat”,父亲这次让我“出钱请客”。注意Cbuy不正确,因为,我可以买冰淇淋,但不一定我出钱。其它两项意思不符。故选B。
【小题10】根据文意和“plus”可知,我每个星期除了得到25美分,而且干零活得到“额外”的钱,故选A。
【小题11】根据文意,我虽然有足够的钱,但当(when)让我拿来买冰淇淋时,我就舍不得。故选C。
【小题12】根据下文可以推知,我出于自私(selfishness)而放弃了请客吃冰淇淋的念头,故选D。
【小题13】根据文意,我既然不愿请客吃冰淇淋,就只好放弃了。注意pass在此意思是“免掉,不要”。故选C。
【小题14】上文提到I realized how wrong I was,所以我后悔自己的自私,从而央求父亲掉转车头(turn back),故选A。
【小题15】根据上文父亲的回答可知,他实际上委婉的拒绝了我的恳求,所以我感到awful(懊恼的、糟糕的),故选B。
【小题16】根据文意,父亲对我的行为并不介意,甚至(even)没表现出失望。故选A。
【小题17】根据文意,我从此事认识到慷慨是双向的。B learned意思是“认识到、意识到,从......得到教训”,为最佳选项。故选B。
【小题18】根据文意可推知,我在想:如果我当时请客吃了冰淇淋,将是对父亲多年来的回报,也将是我所吃到的最好的冰淇淋。其它选项不符合文意。故选D。
【小题19】考查固定短语。go on a trip为固定词组,“去旅行”。故选C。

When I was about 6 years old I lived in Kenya. There was a lot of and there were always street children on the roads asking for money. There was such a big divide between those children and me and I grew up very aware of being so .
We had a wonderful and very kind driver, John, who had been working with my for decades. He used to take us to and from school. One day while we were stopped in traffic a young street child, probably no more than 10 years old, with a friendly greeting, “Hi, John!”
He the car and shook John’s hand,. John then gave him a little bit of money and waved him off with a smile before we carried on our way to school.
I had watched the whole incident completely . John had a large family himself and had to work very hard to make ends .I knew that he didn’t have any spare money. So, of course, at that age I couldn’t understand why he would be giving money to the child.
“Who was that?” I asked. “My friend,” he replied. “I see him every morning on my way to work and I give him a little bit of money.” Unable to comprehend, I asked, “Why do you have to give him money every morning?” John replied, “So he can use it to buy some food.”
It was probably at that that I understood what kindness really was. A person who was in a difficult situation himself still found some money to for a child who needed it. Even at the age of 6 that had such a great impact on me. I didn’t have any money, but I wanted to too. So when my grandfather gave us a chocolate bar after dinner every Friday, I would mine up so I could give it to John to give to his friend.
