【解析】
试题分析：文章讲述了作者和爸爸经常在回家的路上买冰淇淋吃的故事。有一次，爸爸想让作者请客，但作者舍不得花20美分买冰淇淋，就拒绝了请客。对此，爸爸没有在意，作者却十分后悔。后来，又有一次旅行，作者下定决心要请爸爸吃冰淇淋。
1.根据文章上句中的often 和第二段开头一句中的again可知，我们常停下来买冰淇淋。Frequently经常，故选C。
2.根据文章文意可知，我作为孩子，渴望得到冰淇淋。Aexpect意为“（心理上的）期待、渴望”。Cwait为不及物动词，意思、语法上均不正确，其它选项意思不符。故选A。
3.根据上下文可知，从我们开始往家赶的“那一刻”，我就开始祈祷，希望能得到，故选D。
4.根据上文“go straight for the ice cream or…”和下文“go home empty-handed”可知，我们或者直接去买冰淇淋，或者空手而回。Cturn意为“转弯、掉头”，符合文意。故选C。
5.根据文章上下文和常识可知，在这里，我可以得到美味的冰淇淋，所以，这个拐角意味着(meant) 快乐或失望。故选B。
6.。根据 “mouth-watering excitement”和文意，得到冰淇淋我会快乐，否则就是失望。Disappointment失望，故选D。
7.根据文意，我希望听到父亲主动提出买冰淇淋，对一个孩子来说，这样的声音是“beautiful”（美好的），故选D最佳，其它选项意思不符。
8.根据文章上文，我期盼的声音终于来了（came），B项最佳。C项spoke的主语应该是人，而其它两项不符合文意。故选A。
9.根据文章结尾处“treat”，父亲这次让我“出钱请客”。注意Cbuy不正确，因为，我可以买冰淇淋，但不一定我出钱。其它两项意思不符。故选B。
10.根据文意和“plus”可知，我每个星期除了得到25美分，而且干零活得到“额外”的钱，故选A。
11.根据文意，我虽然有足够的钱，但当（when）让我拿来买冰淇淋时，我就舍不得。故选C。
12.根据下文可以推知，我出于自私（selfishness）而放弃了请客吃冰淇淋的念头，故选D。
13.根据文意，我既然不愿请客吃冰淇淋，就只好放弃了。注意pass在此意思是“免掉，不要”。故选C。
14.上文提到I realized how wrong I was，所以我后悔自己的自私，从而央求父亲掉转车头（turn back），故选A。
15.根据上文父亲的回答可知，他实际上委婉的拒绝了我的恳求，所以我感到awful（懊恼的、糟糕的），故选B。
16.根据文意，父亲对我的行为并不介意，甚至（even）没表现出失望。故选A。
17.根据文意，我从此事认识到慷慨是双向的。B learned意思是“认识到、意识到，从......得到教训”，为最佳选项。故选B。
18.根据文意可推知，我在想：如果我当时请客吃了冰淇淋，将是对父亲多年来的回报，也将是我所吃到的最好的冰淇淋。其它选项不符合文意。故选D。
19.考查固定短语。go on a trip为固定词组，“去旅行”。故选C。
20.根据上文可知，我已经做错了一次。当再次出游时，到拐角处时，我就主动提出请客，approach符合文意。故选D。
