One cold winter evening, some young families and young couples were eating in a McDonald’s when an old couple walked slowly into McDonald’s hand in hand.

Some of the customers looked admiringly at them .You could tell what the admirers were thinking. Look, there is a couple who has been through a lot together, probably for 60 years or more.” The little old man walked right up to the cash register, placed his order with no hesitation(迟疑) and then paid for their meal. The couple took a table near the back wall and started taking food off the tray. There was one hamburger, one order of French fries and one drink. The little old man unwrapped(打开) the plain hamburger and carefully cut it in half. He placed one half in front of his wife. Then he carefully counted out the French fries, divided them in two piles and neatly placed one pile in front of his wife. He took a sip(吸) of the drink, his wife took a sip and then set the cup down between them.

When the man began to eat his few bites of hamburger, the crowd began to get restless. Again you could tell what they were thinking. “That poor old couple. All they can afford is one meal for the two of them.” Then, the man began to eat his French fries, when one young man stood and came over to the old couple’s table. He politely offered to buy another meal for the old couple to eat. But the old man replied that they were just fine and they were used to sharing everything.

Then the crowd noticed that the little old lady hadn’t eaten a bite. She just sat there watching her husband eat and occasionally taking turns sipping the drink. When the little old man finished eating and was wiping his face neatly, the young man could stand it no longer. Again he came over to their table and offered to buy some food.

After being politely refused again, he finally asked a question of the little old lady. “Ma’am, why aren’t you eating? You said that you shared everything. What is it that you are waiting for?”

She answered, “The false teeth”.

【解析】

试题分析:本文讲述了一对老夫妇在麦当劳吃饭,他们习惯于分享所有东西,就连他们的假牙也一起使用。

1.细节题。前文讲到some young families and young couples were eating in a McDonald’s 都是一些年轻人在吃,所以此处老人在这里看起来并不符合这样的环境,故选B

2.细节推断题。从文章第二自然段和But the old man replied that they were just fine and they were used to sharing everything.可知,将汉堡包分词两半是为了给他的妻子一半,故选D

3.细节题。前文讲到All they can afford is one meal for the two of them.所以的人都以为他们很穷,只能买一份,故这个男同志是非常有同情心的,故选C

4.推断题。通过最后一段She answered, “The false teeth”.可知,他们两个老人共用一份假牙,故选C

考点:故事类记叙文

点评:文章风趣幽默,文章有不难,学生在答题中一定要认真细致的作答以求全对。对于此类记叙文的文章一定要将文章仔细的阅读完并理解,结合题目通过题目的关键词进行定位,分析好句子的意思,即可得出答案。
