【解析】

【语篇解读】本文讲述了Maureen的一次经历。

【1】从文章来看，孩子们跑来跑去，是高兴、兴奋的表现，所以他们＂兴奋地＂叫喊着。下文的With growing excitement是线索提示。

【2】由句子＂Maureen stood by the lake.＂可知＂他们是朝湖边跑了过来＂。

【3】根据句意＂有些孩子大声嚷嚷要去坐船，但突然，那些在小摊那儿的孩子们跑了过来＂可知。

【4】由句子＂They were __8__ things again. The toy stall was __9__ and they were crowded around it.＂可知＂他们离开了水，又返回到小摊＂。

【5】这句话的意思是＂顺着他们来的路回去＂。

【6】由＂When she __7__ what had been running for, she stopped running.＂可知Maureen跟着他们跑了一阵。

【7】后面几句话描写的都是Maureen＂看到＂的。

【8】上文提到＂有些孩子在小摊那儿＂，可知＂他们买过东西＂，现在又在＂买＂。

【9】由句子＂a calm middle-aged woman was selling a great variety of small rubbish.＂可知＂小摊开门营业＂。

【10】由＂The toy stall was __9__ and they were crowded around it.＂可推知中年妇女的位置是在＂小摊＂的后面。

【11】从＂in exchanging for...＂来看，是用钱来交换东西。

【12】由最后一句＂She rubbed almost round the tree, her eyes on the ground.＂可知，当时＂她靠着一棵树＂。

【13】比较四个选项，spending最符合语境，这句话的意思是＂花钱的想法如同强流一般，冲洗着她的脸＂。

【14】这句话意思是＂放下刚才买的东西，好腾出手看钱包里还有多少钱＂。

【15】由句子＂Maureen leaned against a __12__, looking on＂可知Maureen一直在看着。

【16】从句子＂She shut her eyes and __18__ eagerly for some money, for the price of a set of toy plates.＂可知＂Maureen渴望这些东西＂。

【17】前面说＂她靠着树＂，现在又＂脸朝树＂，所以判断＂她转过了头＂。

【18】Maureen渴望那些东西，所以闭上眼睛＂祈祷＂。

【19】根据意思＂一会儿，她睁开了眼睛，但是她没有转过身去看小摊＂可知。

【20】看到了其他孩子买到了所想要的东西，而自己又没钱买，因此她很＂难受＂。
