Question

【题目】阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。

When my son, Mark, was in the third grade, he saved all his pocket money for over three months to buy holiday presents. 【1】 .

I drove him to a nearby supermarket. Mark picked up a hand basket and went in while I waited and watched in the car. It took Mark over 45 minutes to choose his presents. Finally he came to the checkout counter (交款处) and reached into his pocket for his money. It was not there! There was a hole in his pocket, but no money. 【2】 .

Then a surprising thing happened. 【3】 . "You would help me a lot if you let me pay for you," said the woman. "It would be the most wonderful gift you could give me. I only ask that one day you will pass it on. When you grow up, I would like you to find someone you can help. When you help others, 1 know you will feel as good about it as I do now."

【4】 . That year we all enjoyed our gifts almost as much as Mark enjoyed giving them to us.

I would like to say '"thank you" to that very kind woman, and tell her that four years later, Mark went house to house collecting blankets (毯子) and clothes for the homeless people in the fire. 【5】 .

【解析】

试题解析：Mark本来打算用自己省下来三个月的钱来买节日礼物的，但是在他把礼物拿到收银台准备付款的时候，才发现自己的钱都丢了。而在此时，一个陌生的女人为他付款，并希望他以后也能及时地为有需要的人给予帮助。

【1】根据上文的意思，可知Mark自己已经用三个月的省把下来钱打算买节日礼物的，而后一句可推断作者要说的是这笔钱有多少，Mark将如何处理，故选C。

【2】根据前文说他的钱不见，可推断当时他必然是很伤心，故E选项的描述，说他哭了合符文章的逻辑。

【3】根据前一句说“一件令人惊讶的事情发生了”，再结合各个选项的意思，可知选D合理。

【4】根据前文说那个女人给钱他付款，可推断他当时就把拿到的钱付款去了，故选A。

【5】根据前文说那个女人对Mark所说的话，可推断Mark信守他的承诺，故选B。
