Question

I was doing some last-minute Christmas shopping in a toy store. A nicely dressed little girl was  36   the teddy bears beside her father  37  she saw a little boy walk in and stop in front of the Pokémon toys. His jacket was obviously too small. He had money in his hand.   38  , it looked no more than five dollars at most. He was with his father as well, and  39  picking up the Pokémon video games. Each time he showed one to his father, his father  40   his head, “No”.

Rather  41  , the boy gave up the video games and chose a book of stickers  42  . After they walked away, the little girl ran over to the Pokémon video games. She excitedly picked up one  43   on top of the others, and ran toward the check-out. I picked up my purchases(購買物) and  44  the girl and her father.

Then, much to the little girl’s  45  , the little boy and his father got in line  46  her and me. After the video was paid for and bagged, the little girl  47  it back to the cashier(收銀員) and  48   something to her. The cashier smiled and put the  49  under the counter(柜臺). I was putting things in my bag when the little boy came up to the cashier. The cashier said, “  50  , you’re my hundredth customer today, and you win a prize!” and she handed the boy the Pokémon game. The boy could only   51   in disbelief. It was, he said,   52  what he had wanted! The little girl and her father had been standing at the doorway, and I saw the biggest and  53  smile on that little girl I have ever seen in my life.

I suddenly understood that the world is not  54  into the strong who care and the  55  who are cared for. We must each in turn care and be cared.

【解析】圣誕節前夕，我在一家玩具店里進行圣誕購物，目睹了一個善良的小女孩幫助一個小男孩的過程。從那個小女孩的身上我明白了人們需要相互關心，互相照顧。

1.考查動詞短語。根據文章首句“圣誕節前夕，我在一家玩具店里進行最后時刻的圣誕購物”可知，小女孩在挑選自己的玩具。look through瀏覽，檢查；get through到達，通過；dress up盛裝，喬裝打扮；tidy up整理，收拾。

2.考查連詞。正當小女孩在挑選泰迪熊時，她看見一個小男孩走進來。be doing sth.when...“正在做某事時突然……”。

3.考查副詞。　根據上下文可知，小男孩雖然帶著錢，但錢不多。此處表示轉折。

4.考查動詞。　根據下文“Each time he showed one to his father”可知，小男孩一直在挑選。

5.考查動詞。　根據常識和“No”可知，父親搖頭表示不贊成。

6.考查形容。　根據文章第一段可知小男孩特別想要the Pokemon video games，當愿望不能滿足時自然是很失望。anxious焦急的；disappointed失望的；angry生氣的；curious好奇的。

7.考查副詞。根據“the boy gave up the video games”可知，小男孩只好選擇了“a book of stickers”取而代之。

8.考查動詞。　根據下文內容可知，善良的小女孩是在幫助小男孩得到心儀的圣誕禮物，所以此時她懷著興奮的心情。nervously緊張地；excitedly興奮地；bravely勇敢地；hopefully充滿希望地。

9.考查動詞。　作者帶著自己要買的物品跟著他們去了付款處。accompany陪伴；admire贊美，欽佩；follow跟隨，追隨。

10.考查形容詞。　小女孩想幫助這個小男孩，唯恐他已付錢離開，所以當她看到小男孩父子還在排隊時，她很高興。surprise驚訝；satisfaction滿意；delight高興；regret遺憾，懊悔。

11.考查介詞。　根據第二段中的“and raced down toward the checkout”和下文可知，小女孩趕在了小男孩之前排隊付錢，從而悄悄地幫助了他。

12.考查動詞。　小女孩付完錢后，又把裝好的物品遞給了收銀員。

13.考查動詞。　小女孩又低聲對收銀員說了些什么。whisper耳語，小聲說。

14.考查名詞。　根據上文中的“After the video game was paid for and bagged”可知答案選B。

15.考查交際用語。　為了讓小男孩接受這份禮物，小女孩囑咐收銀員要告訴小男孩他中獎了，所以收銀員祝賀小男孩，故選C。

16.考查動詞。心儀的東西從天而降，小男孩自然是難以置信地盯著看。

17.考查副詞。　小男孩說這正是他之前想要的！extremely極端地，非常；exactly正好，剛好；totally完全，全部地；wonderfully很好地，非常。

18.考查形容詞。　小女孩成功地幫助了小男孩，臉上露出我所見過的最美的笑容。pretty動人的，漂亮的。

19.考查動詞。　be divided into...“被分成……”。根據“the strong who care”和“the__55__who are cared for”兩類人可知答案選A。
