【题目】 Children can make some pretty lofty statements and grand promises. And an 8-year-old boy who promised to get his dad his dream car was no exception-but then he actually fulfilled his promise.
A Reddit user going by the username Belairboy wrote that when he was 8 year old, he told his dad he would buy him a 1957 Chevrolet(雪佛兰)Bel Air on his 57th birthday.
'He grew up in a poor family of seven children. He never thought he would be able to own his dream vehicle but would talk about it all the time,' Belairboy wrote.
Then the day came.
He tricked his father to look in the garage while the older man was trying to fix a cornhole board. When the dad finally looked up from his project and his son said, 'happy birthday,' all the father could say in a whimpering tone was 'no', as he tearfully went in for a hug.
'Oh my God, oh my God. This is real! This is real! ' the father said as he climbed into the driver's seat.' You're kidding me. This is spotless, man.'
Later, Belairboy revealed that he had hung onto the car for two years to make the promise come true.
'We would talk about older vehicles so as to make sure how much he would enjoy it. I would show him pictures of it from the listing I found, unknown to him that it would actually be his one day, ' Belairboy wrote.' He would get so excited and talk about owning something that he knew he never would be able to. '

这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了一个儿子兑现自己8岁时的承诺,送父亲爱车,让父亲热泪盈眶的故事。
【1】推理判断题。根据五六段的When the dad finally looked up from his project and his son said, 'happy birthday,' all the father could say in a whimpering tone was 'no', as he tearfully went in for a hug.(当父亲终于抬起头时,他的儿子对他说:“生日快乐!”,父亲呜咽着,一边说 “不”,一边走进去拥抱)可推测,父亲因为太感动了不知道该说什么。C. He was too excited to say anything else.(他太感动了以至于不知该说什么)符合以上推测,故选C项。
【2】细节理解题。根据第三段的He grew up in a poor family of seven children. He never thought he would be able to own his dream vehicle but would talk about it all the time.(他在一个有七个孩子的贫穷家庭长大。他从来没有想过会拥有一辆自己梦想的车,只能常常谈论)可知,父亲认为他此生不会拥有一辆自己梦想的车。D. He would never have it in his life.(他有生之年不会拥有梦想的车)符合以上说法,故选D项。
【3】推理判断题。根据第二段的he told his dad he would buy him a 1957 Chevrolet(雪佛兰)Bel Air on his 57th birthday.(他告诉父亲在父亲57岁时,他会给父亲买一辆1957年款的雪佛兰)和倒数第三段的'Oh my God, oh my God. This is real! This is real! ' the father said as he climbed into the driver's seat.(“哦,我的上帝!哦,我的上帝!这是真的!”父亲一边说着一边爬上了驾驶座)可知,作者从小立志要在父亲57岁时给父亲买一辆喜欢的豪车,最后承诺得以实现,由此推测他是一个值得信赖的人。B. He is worth trust.(他值得信赖)符合以上说法,故选B项。
