Question

【題目】 “You say your hair is gone?” Jim said like an idiot (白癡).

“You needn’t look for it,” said Della. “It’s sold, I tell you - sold and gone, too. It’s Christmas Eve, boy. It’s time for gifts. Be good to me, for it went for you. Maybe the hairs of my head were numbered,” she went on with a sudden serious sweetness, “but nobody could ever count my love for you.”

Jim drew a package from his overcoat pocket and threw it upon the table.

“Don’t make any mistake, Dell...” he said, “...about me. I don’t think there’s anything that could make me like my girl any less, no matter what hair style you have. But if you’ll open that package you may understand how I felt at first.”

She opened the package with her white fingers quickly and lightly. And then an excited cry of joy; and then, alas! a quick change to uncontrollable tears.

For there lay the combs - the set of combs (發(fā)梳), side and back, that Della had dreamed of for long in a Broadway window. Beautiful combs with jeweled rims (邊緣)-just the color to wear in her beautiful hair. They were expensive combs, she knew, and her heart had always wanted them. But there was no hope of having them. And now they were hers, but the hair was gone. But she hugged them to her bosom (胸口), and at last she was able to look up with dim (黯淡的) eyes and a smile and say: “My hair grows so fast, Jim!”

【解析】

本文節(jié)選自麥琪的禮物。本文主要講了Jim為他的妻子Della買了她夢寐以求的梳子作為圣誕節(jié)禮物，但是Della卻把她的長頭發(fā)賣出去了，雖然得到了梳子但是頭發(fā)卻沒有了。

【1】

推理判斷題。根據(jù)第一，二段““You say your hair is gone?” Jim said like an idiot “你說你的頭發(fā)沒有了？”Jim像傻瓜一樣地說”和“You needn’t look for it, It’s sold你不需要尋找它，它被賣出去了”可知Jim看到Della沒有了頭發(fā)是感到很震驚，下面也提到了他和妻子說，你看了我的禮物之后就能明白我的感受了，他的妻子看到丈夫買的梳子之后先是開心然后控制不住的哭泣，情緒的轉(zhuǎn)換說明是震驚的，故選B。

【2】

細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段“It’s Christmas Eve. It’s time for gifts. Maybe the hairs of my head were numbered, but nobody could ever count my love for you今晚是圣誕節(jié)，是時候送禮物了�；蛟S我頭發(fā)的數(shù)量能被數(shù)清楚，但是沒有人能夠數(shù)清楚我對你的愛”可知Della賣掉頭發(fā)是去給Jim買禮物，故選A。

【3】

細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第五段“She opened the package with her white fingers quickly and lightly. And then an excited cry of joy她用它白皙的手指快速輕盈地打開了包裹。然后一個帶著高興的激動的叫喊”可知當(dāng)Della看到丈夫的禮物是高興和激動的，故選B。

【4】

細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第六段“Beautiful combs with jeweled rims (邊緣)-just the color to wear in her beautiful hair邊緣鑲有珠寶的美麗梳子，正好配上她美麗的頭發(fā)”可知這把梳子非常配Della的長頭發(fā)，故選A。

【5】

推理判斷題。本文主要講了Jim為他的妻子Della買了她夢寐以求的梳子作為圣誕節(jié)禮物，但是Della卻把她的長頭發(fā)賣出去了，但這并不能影響Jim對Della的愛，并結(jié)合第四段“I don’t think there’s anything that could make me like my girl any less, no matter what hair style you have我認(rèn)為我對喜歡的女孩的愛一點也不少，無論你有什么樣的發(fā)型”可知Jim對他的妻子Della展示出的愛和他的妻子對他的一樣多，故選B。
