Question

I was doing some Christmas shopping in a toy store and decided to look at Barbie dolls for my nieces. A nicely dressed little girl was excitedly looking through the Barbie dolls as well. As she was looking, a little boy came to the Pokemon toys. He was dressed neatly, but his clothes were obviously old. He was with his father as well, and kept picking up the Pokemon video toys. Each time he picked one up and looked at his father, his father shook his head and said, “No.”

The little girl had chosen her Barbie. However, she stopped and was watching them. Rather dejectedly, the boy had to give up the Pokemon toys and choose something else. The little girl put her Barbie back on the shelf, and ran over to the Pokemon toys. She excitedly picked up one and raced towards the checkout. I picked up my purchases and got in line behind them. Then, much to the little girl’s delight, the little boy and his father got in line behind me. After the toy was paid for and bagged, the little girl handed it back to the cashier (收銀員) and whispered something in her ear. The casher smiled and put the package under the counter.

I paid for my purchases and was rearranging things when the little boy came up to the cashier. The cashier checked his purchases and said, “Congratulations, you are my hundredth customer today, and you win a prize!” With that, she handed the little boy the Pokemon toys, and he could only stare in surprise. It was exactly what he had wanted!

The little girl and her father had been standing at the doorway during all of this. Then they walked out. As I walked back to my car, I heard the father ask his daughter why she had done that. I’ll never forget what she said to him. “Daddy, didn’t Grandparents want me to buy something that would make me happy?” He said, “Of course they did, honey.” To which the little girl replied, “Well, I just did!”

I feel very shocked to have witnessed the true spirit of Christmas in that toy store, in the form of a little girl who understands more about the meaning of this festival than most adults I know.

試題分析：本文通過小女孩巧妙地幫助小男孩得到圣誕禮物的故事我們：讓別人快樂才是真正的快樂、

1.B 推理題。根據(jù)本句Rather dejectedly, the boy had to give up the Pokemon toys and choose something else.從第一段內(nèi)容可知這個(gè)小男孩很想要這個(gè)Pokemon toys。所以在他放棄這個(gè)的時(shí)候，他很失望，故B正確。

2.D 推理題。實(shí)際情況是小女孩聽到小男孩的話，知道他很想要Pokemon toys，但是他的爸爸拒絕了他。小女孩就想了一個(gè)辦法來幫助他，自己先買了那個(gè)Pokemon toys然后告訴收銀員，讓收銀員把這個(gè)玩具以獎(jiǎng)品的形式送個(gè)小男孩，故D正確。

3.B 推理題。根據(jù)“Daddy, didn’t Grandparents want me to buy something that would make me happy?”說明她能通過買Pokemon toys 的方式讓這個(gè)小男孩高興起來，這對她來說就是高興的事情，故B正確。

4.C 細(xì)節(jié)題。文章中并沒有提及這個(gè)小女孩喜歡Pokemon toys，根據(jù)文章第一段A nicely dressed little girl was excitedly looking through the Barbie dolls as well說明小女孩喜歡的是Barbie dolls。故C說法錯(cuò)誤。
