A boy who was cleaning shoes in the street said to a young man, “Let me clean your shoes.” The young man said, “No, thank you.” “You may pay(支付) me only one dollar for them.” Said the boy. But the young man refused(拒絕) again.
And then the boy told the young man that he would clean his shoes for nothing. The young man            agreed to his, and soon one of his shoes became as clean as a new one. The man gave the other shoe to the boy, but the boy refused to clean it because he wanted the man to pay two dollars for his work. The young man refused to pay anything and went away.
But the dirty shoe looked so bad that he couldn’t walk away. He had to turn back and gave the boy two dollars. In a very short time the other shoe became clean.
小題1:At first the young man refused to let the boy clean his shoes, because        
A.he was very busyB.he didn’t want to pay
C.he didn’t have enough moneyD.he had cleaned his shoes
小題2:The young man agreed to let the boy clean his shoes, because the boy said he would ask for         
A.one dollarB.two dollarsC.four dollarsD.nothing
小題3:The boy refused to clean the other shoe because         
A.it was very dirtyB.it was difficult to clean
C.the young man paid only one dollarD.he wanted the young man to pay him
小題4:According to the passage, we know the boy        .
He is very foolish.  B. He is very selfish.   C. He is very clever.   D. He is very sad.

小題1:B
小題2:D
小題3:D
小題4:C

小題1:根據(jù)文章的意思可知首先小男孩說要付一美元擦鞋,年輕人不肯,當(dāng)小男孩說不需要任何錢的時候,年輕人愿意去擦鞋,可見年輕人開始拒絕讓小男孩擦鞋,是因為他不想付錢,故本題根據(jù)文意選B。
小題2:文章第二段第一句And then the boy told the young man that he would clean his shoes for nothing. 意思為小男孩不需要任何東西可以給那個年輕人擦鞋,所以年輕讓讓小男孩擦鞋,是因為小男孩說他不需要任何東西,故本題選D。
小題3:根據(jù)文章第二段第三行有一句the boy refused to clean it because he wanted the man to pay two dollars for his work.意思為小男孩拒絕擦另一只鞋,因為他想那個年輕人為他所做的事付2美元,也就是想讓那個年輕人付錢,故本題選D。
小題4:根據(jù)文章意思,我們可知小男孩通過給那個年輕人擦一只鞋免費,而不再擦另一只鞋,致使年輕人只能付兩美元擦另一只鞋,可見小男孩是聰明的,clever是聰明的含義,故本題選C。

I was born in the Tronto, Canada. Life looked bright and was filled with hope for my parents and me. My father and mother were married in 1980, and I was born next year.
As I grew into a man, I often looked to my father for advice and support. There were many things about his character that I admired, but like any young boy, I often thought that my father’s ideas were from the past and out of date.

Thank you again, dad. I miss you. Happy Father’s Day.
