解答 BADAC
56．B细节理解题．根据第一段可知it is a pretty necklace，but it costs a lot of money．I'll buy you the necklace，and we can make up a list of chores（家务） that you can do to pay for the necklace．可知这条项链很漂亮但很贵．詹妮要给妈妈打工做家务才能买项链．由此可知，詹妮得靠自己的努力才能买这条项链．故选B．
57．A细节判断题．根据第七段But you can have Rosy，my favorite doll．Remember her？You gave her to me last year for my birthday．可知Rosy是詹妮最喜欢的玩偶，是她爸爸送给她的生日礼物．故选A．
