Question

【題目】 Mr. Dawson was an old grouch（不高興的人）, Kids knew not to go into his yard to pick a delicious apple, even off the ground, because old Dawson, they said, would come after you with his ball bullet gun.

One Friday, 12-year-old Janet was going to stay all night with her friend Amy. They had to walk by Dawson’s house , but as they got close ,Janet saw him sitting on his front porch(門廊) and suggested they cross over to the other side of the street.

Amy said not to worry, Mr. Dawson wouldn’t hurt anyone. When they got close enough, Dawson looked up with his usual frown, but when he saw it was Amy, a smile changed his face as he said, “Hello Miss Amy. I see you’ve got a little friend with you today.”

Amy smiled back and told him Janet was staying overnight. Dawson told them that sounded fun, and offered them each a fresh picked apple off his tree. They gladly accepted. Dawson had the best apples in town.

When they got out of Dawson’s, Janet asked Amy, “Everyone says he’s the meanest(刻薄的) man in town. How come was he so nice to us?”

Amy explained that when she first started walking past his house he wasn’t very friendly and she was afraid of him, but she pretended he was wearing an invisible（無形的） smile and so she always smiled back at him. It took a while, but one day he half-smiled back at her.

After some more time, he started smiling real smiles and then started talking to her. Just a "hello" at first, then more. She said he always offers her an apple now, and is always very kind.

"An invisible smile?" questioned Janet.

"Yes," answered Amy, "my grandma told me that if I pretended I wasn’t afraid and pretended he was smiling an invisible smile at me and I smiled back at him, that sooner or later he would really smile. "

【2】詞義猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)第3大段“Amy said not to worry, Mr. Dawson wouldn’t hurt anyone. When they got close enough, Dawson looked up with his usual frown,” Amy告訴我不要擔(dān)心，道森先生不會(huì)傷害任何人。當(dāng)我們走進(jìn)的時(shí)候，道森先生像往常一樣皺眉抬頭�？芍�，這個(gè)詞是為了顯示道森先生的嚴(yán)肅，生氣的表情。故選A。

【3】推理判斷題。根據(jù)第1大段“because old Dawson, they said, would come after you with his ball bullet gun.”他們說，道森先生總會(huì)拿他的槍追著你�？芍�，是他們說的，而不是事實(shí)上，故A錯(cuò)誤；根據(jù)第6大段“Amy explained that when she first started walking past his house he wasn’t very friendly and she was afraid of him,”艾米解釋說，當(dāng)她第一次經(jīng)過他的房子時(shí)，他不是很友好，她很怕他�？芍�，道森先生并不認(rèn)識(shí)艾米的奶奶。故B錯(cuò)誤；根據(jù)第7大段“She said he always offers her an apple now, and is always very kind.”她說他現(xiàn)在總是給她一個(gè)蘋果，而且總是很友好�？芍�，道森先生實(shí)際上是個(gè)友好的人，故C正確；根據(jù)第6大段“Amy explained that when she first started walking past his house he wasn’t very friendly and she was afraid of him,”艾米解釋說，當(dāng)她第一次經(jīng)過他的房子時(shí)，他不是很友好，她很怕他。可知，道森先生并不是喜歡女孩子和他笑。故D錯(cuò)誤。故選C。
