分析 本文是一篇记叙文．主要叙述了我和妈妈在进行春节大扫除的时候，妈妈看到爷爷的椅子太旧，不美观了，要给爷爷换个新的．正要往外搬椅子的时候，爷爷回来了，阻止了他们的行动，约翰问爷爷，为什么不换个新椅子呢？爷爷坐在椅子上说，"孩子啊，你不懂，我和你奶奶就是都坐在这个椅子上的时候，我向你奶奶求婚的，还有你爸爸出生的那个晚上，我就是坐在这个椅子上的，当把你爸爸送到我手上的时候，我从来没有那么高兴过．"爷爷忘记了现在所有的事情，我很奇怪他为什么还记得过去的事情，我终于明白这把椅子对爷爷的重要性了．我们第二天再看这把椅子的时候，要是这把椅子不在了，房间会显得很单调．

解答 31．B．考查名词．根据上文"I was thinking of our spring house cleaning．"可知约翰和妈妈打扫的是房屋，故选B．

32．A．考查名词．根据"That old chair has got to go"可知妈妈指的是爷爷的椅子，故选A．

33．B．考查形容词．根据"The chair was unsightly （不美观的）．It was too old．"可知这把椅子确实需要换了，故选B．

34．D．考查动词．根据上文"John，let's take the chair outside．"可知我和妈妈正要把椅子搬出去的时候，爷爷回来了，故选D．

35．C．考查动词．根据下文"I think I'm going to understand．"可知爷爷不舍得换这把椅子的原因是，爷爷对这把椅子有感情，这是我不能理解的，故选C．

36．B．考查动词．realize意思是"意识到"；feel意思是"觉得，感觉到"；hope意思是"希望"；notice意思是"注意到"．根据"when I sit in this chair and close my eyes I  （36）she is near"我坐在椅子上，合上眼睛，就会感觉到她在我旁边．根据文意，所以要用feel，故选B．

37．C．考查动词．根据下文"In the present，he forgot almost everything"现在，几乎忘掉了一切，这让约翰感到很奇怪的是爷爷怎么能记住以前的事情呢？所以要用remember，故选C．

38．D．考察副词．nervously意思是"紧张地"；bravely意思是"勇敢地"；excitedly意思是"兴奋地"；thoughtfully意思是"若有所思地"．根据"I think I'm going to understand．"在爷爷说了这些话之后，我若有所思地明白了爷爷的话，故选D．

39．C．考查形容词．根据下文"This is not just any old chair．You've gone through a lot together．"这不仅仅是一把旧椅子，而是你和它一起度过了很多时光的东西，所以约翰为前面要把旧椅子搬出去而向爷爷道歉，故选C．

40．A．考查名词．根据下文"They realized how much the chair meant to Grandpa"他们知道这把椅子对爷爷意味着什么．爷爷对待椅子的态度就像对待自己的孩子一样，在这几个名词里面，只有孩子比较符合文意．故选A．

In 1910，Einstein asked a question which many children often ask，"Why is the sky blue？"After his careful research，he answered the question like this："It's because light is made up of many colors including blue．When light travels to Earth，gas particles（气体微粒）spread the blue light all over the sky．"His answer is true in physics．
