【解析】

试题分析：这篇短文主要描述了史密斯夫人给家人买了几件衣服，都不合适。就通过水洗来使他们变小，结构有太小了。

1.由上句“Mrs. Smith正在看商店里出售的衬衫”及下文“有如此多的衬衫”可判断出：“她想为她的丈夫买一件衬衫。”故选A。

2.考查特殊疑问词加不定式作宾语的用法。从形式上即可排除A、B、C；该句意为 “有如此多的衬衫以至于她不知该选哪一件。”故选D。

3.考查动词的用法。try on意为“试穿”；try out意为“试验”；wear意为“穿着”，强调状态；put on意为“穿上”，强调动作。由句意 “她想知道这衬衫是否适合她的丈夫。”可知，她的丈夫试穿了这件衬衫。故选A。

4.由上句“她的丈夫试穿了衬衫”和下句“它又长又大”可知，“这件衬衫一点也不适合他。”故选B。

5.由下句“现在对他来说又太小了。”可知“这件衬衫仍然不适合他”。usually通常；still仍然；ever曾经；always总是。故选B。

6.put on是由动词加副词构成的短语，若代词作宾语，须放在中间。故选B。

7.考查词义辨析。这四个词都有“也”的意思。also常用于句中；too常用as well as 常用于句中作连词；either用于否定句或疑问句句末。故选D。

8.由上文可知，这件衬衫对丈夫来说太小，但对儿子来说太大。于是她又洗一次，想使这件衬衫变小点。故选A。

9.由下文可知，这件衬衫对于女儿来说太大了，因而女儿不喜欢它。故选D。

10.通读全文可知，这件衬衫对谁都不适合，因此没有人知道怎么办。“怎么办”用what to do。故选B。

考点：故事类记述文

点评：这篇短文内容比较简单，理解不难。各小题与上下文联系比较紧密，答题中一定要注意联系上下文。答完后多读几遍，看看是否符合逻辑，适当修改。个别小题可以当作单独的词义辨析题来做，先区分词义，结合语境选出最能使语句通顺的答案。
