【解析】

【主旨大意】這篇短文主要是講小男孩兩次拾到錢包，歸還給主人時，發(fā)生的一些有趣的故事。

【1】B 根據(jù)spend …(in) doing sth. 花費時間（或）金錢做某事, find “找到，尋找”意思。

【2】A 考查定語從句，先行詞是人，故引導(dǎo)詞用who。

【3】C there be 中的be動詞由后面的主語單復(fù)數(shù)形式?jīng)Q定的，即some money 為不可數(shù)名詞，“一些錢”，整篇故事用的過去式，故用was。

【4】B 根據(jù)下文“能找到她的住址，可確定名字和地址都印在駕照上。

【5】B knock on “敲門”，break into “破門而入”，故B正確。

【6】B 根據(jù)下文“I’m sorry”可知，“她沒有給小男孩報酬”，所以用轉(zhuǎn)折連詞but。

【7】C 根據(jù)句意可知，“要給男孩$20，感覺有點太多”，所以too much正確。

【8】A 根據(jù)句意可知“他沒有零錢給這個孩子”，故選change “零錢”。

【9】A another “又一，再一”的意思。

【10】C 根據(jù)下文可知，“錢包里錢數(shù)沒少，但是錢的面值有所變化”，所以她感到奇怪，故C正確。
