Question

【題目】Mother's Day

When I was in the third grade, Mother’s Day came around much too quickly; I found myself empty-handed with nothing to give my ____ on her special day. So I was ______ when an announcement over the loud speaker said that one of the older graders would be selling pins that said “No.1 Mom”. It may not sound like much, but to an 8-year-old, it’s perfect.

So each day I told myself that the following day I would______ the money to buy the pin, but I always forgot. And I was very disappointed when the principal and a few of the older kids selling pins came into my classroom and announced that it was the_____________day to buy them.

I was always afraid of my principal. If you stepped out of line, she was quick to set you straight. On this day, however, my principal was in a good mood. And she must have heard me tell my classmates I’d forgotten my______again. I wasn’t__________, but she knew I really wanted to buy a pin.

After she left, I got called to her office. I’d never been there – ever – so I was terrified. When I arrived, she told me to come to her desk, and she pulled out the pin I’d had my eye on for ___________. “The kids gave me this to give to my mother,” she began, “but my mom passed away, so I want you to have it.”

Taking the pin, I didn’t know what to say. I probably thanked her. I proudly presented this free luxury to my mother.

I don’t know if my mom still has the pin, and I don’t know if the principal remembers giving it to me. But I will never forget that act of__________from someone I’d never expected it from.

【解析】試題分析：母親節(jié)快到了，作者想給媽媽買禮物，卻總是忘記帶錢，校長免費(fèi)給了作者要送的禮物，作者很感動，會永遠(yuǎn)記著別人對自己的善舉。

【1】句意：在她特殊的日子里，我發(fā)現(xiàn)兩手空空，沒有什么可以給我媽媽。A. mother名詞，媽媽；B. classmate名詞，同學(xué)；C. principal名詞，負(fù)責(zé)人、校長；D. friend名詞，朋友。根據(jù)前文When I was in the third grade, Mother’s Day came around much too quickly可知，在“母親節(jié)”應(yīng)送“媽媽”禮物。故填：A。

【3】句意：所以每天我都告訴自己第二天我會拿錢買別針，但總是忘了。A. borrow動詞，借； B. bring動詞，帶來；C. collect動詞，搜集；D. save動詞，節(jié)約、拯救。根據(jù)語境可知，“帶錢來買別針”。故填：B。
