Grandmother spent a lot of time with the big shot and his family. She 28 them the most important members of her social circle and tried hard to please them. At one point during the party, I 29my way to the bathroom and closed the door behind me. A minute or two later, the little girl 30the bathroom door and simply walked in. I was still sitting down. “Don’t you know that little girls aren't31to come into the bathroom when a little boy is using it!?” I shouted. The32I had piled upon her shocked the little girl. Then she started to cry. She tearfully33to her parents and my grandmother. Grandmother was waiting for me when I left the bathroom. I received the longest, sharpest34. After her scolding was over and I had been dismissed, the party 35.
Twenty minutes later, all that changed. Grandmother walked by the bathroom and noticed a flood of water36out from under the door. She37the bathroom door and saw that the sink and tub were plugged(塞)up and that the taps 38at full blast (拧到最大). Everyone knew who did it. The guests quickly formed a39wall around me, but Grandmother was40 angry that she almost got to me anyway.
My grandfather took me41to the window. He was a kind and gentle man, full of wisdom and patience.42did he raise his voice to anyone, and never did he43 his wife. He looked at me with much curiosity, 44 angry or upset.
“Tell me,” he asked, “why did you do it?”
“Well, she shouted at me 45,” I said earnestly. “Now she's got something to shout about.”
Grandfather didn’t speak right away. He just sat there, looking at me and smiling. “Eric,” he said at last, “you are my revenge(复仇).”

解析:
这是一篇趣味性记叙文。作者通过一件小事描写了祖母和祖父的两个截然不同的处理方法以及祖父的幽默：在作者报复了祖母以后，祖父说“Eric，你帮我出气了”。
26. B前文说她邀请了一些亲戚朋友到公寓里聚会。此处表示：在这些客人中。
27. A因家里有钱以及下文的“习惯于我行我素”可知他们的小女儿被宠得非常娇气，脾气很蛮横。Spoil表示“宠坏，溺爱”。
28.D这里表示祖母认为他们是最重要的客人，极力讨好他们。
29. A晚会进行中，我走进了洗手间并随手把门关上。这里用make one’s way to表示向…走去。而其他动词的含义不符合语境：B找到去…的路，C挤出一条路，D蜿蜒前进。
30. B由and simply walked in可知那个小女孩推开洗手间的门进来了。
31. C从语境可知这里用be supposed to表示should理应做……；应该做……。句意为：“难道你不知道当一个男孩在使用洗手间的时候女孩子是不可以进来的吗！？
32. D从上文内容可知作者这个时候很生气。
33. A本题用动词complain表示“投诉”，历来我行我素的女孩出来没有被人这么呵斥过，她哭着向她的父母和我奶奶告状。
34. B当我从洗手间出来，祖母劈头盖脸地把我骂了一通。
35. C等她骂完叫我滚开之后，晚会继续进行。这里用carry on表示“继续”。
36. D从下文可知祖母发现有水从洗手间的门缝里涌出来。
37. A撞开洗手间的门，发现洗手盆和浴缸都被塞子塞住了。
38. B这里用过去进行时表示祖母进去的时候看见水正水正哗啦啦地直流。
39.C每个人都知道是谁搞的鬼，愤怒的祖母使劲地挥舞着双手要打我，客人们马上在我周围形成了一堵人墙保护我。这里用protective表示“保护性的”。
40. A此处是so…that 句型，表示“如此愤怒，（尽管有人墙保护）差点打了我”。
41. B祖父牵着我的手来到窗前。表示牵着/抓着某人的手用介词by +the +身体某部位。此处的the 不能用his, her, my代替。其他选项与句子意义不符。
42. D上文说祖父很温和，因此他很少提高嗓门和别人说话。从句子结构(倒装)和语境看，只有D项符合语境。
43. A他也从来没有和祖母吵架。
44. C由下文意义可知祖父的反映是：没有半点生气或烦恼的样子。从搭配看B项不对。
45. B此处表示“祖母她先无缘无故地骂了我一顿”，这回我故意捣乱之后让她骂就有理由了。
