分析 翻译：
我的一个邻居，杰基，当在波士顿看望他的母亲时，带她去一家鞋店买一双新鞋．当她试穿不同款式时，杰基把经理叫到一边．"当她挑到一双她喜欢的时候，"他说，"只告诉她价格是12元，我会按平时的价格给你．我不在乎花多少钱．我只想让她快乐．"下一个星期，当杰基步行经过这个商店的时候，经理认出了他，并给叫住他．"有什么问题？"当他走进商店时杰基问，"我的支票没是吧？"．"不是这样的，"经理回答，"问题是你的母亲把她的所有朋友都带来以12美元的价钱买那些鞋．"杰基去波士顿的主要目的是什么？

解答 51．B．根据文章第一句A neighbor of mine，while visiting his mother in Boston，took her to a shoe store to buy a new pair of shoes．可知他是去波士顿看望他的妈妈的，故选：B
52．C．根据文章最后一段"That's not it，"answered the manager，"The problem is that your mother is bringing all her friends in for those 12-dollar shoes!"可知这双鞋不仅12美元，他的母亲觉得很便宜，就带领别人都来买了．故选：C
53．A．根据第一段后3行"When she picks out a pair that she likes，"he said，"Just tell her that the price is 12 dollars．I'll pay the regular（正常的）price．I don't care how much it is．"
可知他这样做是为了让妈妈很开心，让她感觉到自己买到了便宜货．故选：A
54．D．根据文章最后一段"That's not it，"answered the manager，"The problem is that your mother is bringing all her friends in for those 12-dollar shoes!"作者邻居的妈妈带来的人太多了，让老板感觉没有办法满足他们的要求．故选：D
55．B．根据文章第一段可知作者故意让老板把价格说低，正是因为他的母亲喜欢买便宜的东西．故选：B
