试题分析：本文叙述了作者在小的时候在自家的餐馆做事，父亲就告诉他做事一定要有敬业的精神，要对顾客有礼貌，可是当作者在部队服役回来，因为他当时已经升职，他认为父亲不会再让他做一些家务了，可是他的父亲给他说的第一件事就是让作者打扫卫生，作者慢慢地认识到无论做什么事情，都应该对自己的团队有无私的奉献精神。小题1:考查动名词及语境的理解。 A. washing希望； B. shining擦亮，闪烁； C. changing变化； D. repairing修理。根据下文shine the shoes again 可知我六岁的时候，我的第一份工作时擦亮（shining）用餐者的鞋，故选B。
小题2:考查连词及语境的理解。 A. why为什么；B. what什么；C. when什么时间；D. how怎样。根据上文My father had done it ，当父亲小的时候做过这种工作所以他教我如何去做好。因为后面有it作宾语，所以用how而不用what，故选D。
小题3:考查动词及语境的理解。 A. offer提供；B. refuse拒绝； C. continue 继续；D. forget忘记。这里offer to do 表示主动做某事。如果顾客不满意他告诉我如何主动再给顾客擦鞋，故选A。
小题4:考查形容词及语境的理解。 A. interested感兴趣的；B. annoyed恼怒的；C. relaxed 放松的；D. satisfied满意的。根据shine the shoes again可知顾客应该不满意。如果顾客不满意（satisfied）他告诉我如何主动再给顾客擦鞋，故选D。
小题5:考查连词及语境的理解。A. if 如果； B. because 因为；C. when当……时候；D. though尽管。根据I was also working for the good of the family.我在餐馆工作我感觉很自豪，因为同时我也因为我的家庭做些好事，故选B。

小题8:考查名词及语境的理解。 A. family家庭；B. workers工人；C. customers顾客；D. friends朋友。根据上文可知这是餐馆当然来者是客。可知我不得不（had to）按时到岗，努力工作，对客人（customers）有礼貌，故选C
小题9:考查副词及语境的理解。 A. never从不；B. always总是；C. seldom很少； D. already已经。One day I made the mistake of suggesting to Dad that he 40 give me $10 a week. 可知建议父亲给作者付钱是错误的做法，这说明以前的时候作者在自家的餐馆里打工是不给钱的，故选A。
小题10:考查情态动词及语境的理解。 A. must必须；B. should 应该；C. might也许； D. could能够。因为前有suggesting后面的从句的谓语动词应该用should+动词原形。有一天我给了父亲一个错误的建议让他一周付给我10美元的工钱，故选B。
小题11:考查固定短语及语境的理解。这里for free免费。是固定短语。有几次作者带着朋友来喝饮料没有付钱，故选D。
小题12:考查动词短语及语境的理解。A. worked out 计算出；B. decided on决定； C. set aside留出；D. cut down削减。根据the amount of money I owed him, about $40 a week.可知是统计计算一下账目。他算了一下（worked out）所有的账目我一周欠父亲40美元，故选A。

小题14:考查序数词及语境的理解。 A. usual通常的；B. last上一个；C. next下一个；D. first第一个。根据上文可知这是作者离开家后第一次回到餐馆，父亲给他说的第一件事。“我”感觉很自豪“我”走进了父亲的餐馆，父亲给“我”说的第一件事是：今晚打扫一下卫生怎么样，故选D。
小题15:考查名词及语境的理解。 A. washing洗； B. going去；C. cleaning擦干净；D. turning转动。根据I reached for the mop(拖把).可知父亲给“我”说的第一件事是：今晚打扫一下卫生怎么样，故选C。
小题16:考查动词及语境的理解。 A. cover包括；B. follow 跟随； C. believe相信；D. understand理解。根据上文及下文I am an officer in the Army!可知作者已经升职了，自己感到很自豪，他认为父亲可能再不能像以前那样了。所以“我”不能相信（believe）“我”的耳朵，故选C。
小题17:考查代词及语境的理解。根据but表示转折。但是没有关系，故选D。
小题18:考查代词及语境的理解。 A. no不； B. either也； C. any一些； D. another另一个。根据上文可知父子俩想的不是同一件事。父亲所关心的是另一件事情“我”是餐馆的一员，故选D。

举一反三
Born in 1907 in a village near Mexico City, Kahlo suffered from polio(小儿麻癖) at the age of seven. Her spine（脊柱） became bent as she grew older . Then, in 1925, her back was broken in several places in a school-bus accident. Throughout the rest of her life, the artist had many operations, but nothing was able to cure the terrible pain in her back. However, the accident had an unexpected side effect. While lying in her bed recovering, Kahlo taught herself to paint.
In 1929, she got married to Diego Rivera, another famous Mexico artist. Rivera"s strong influence on Kahlo"s style can be seen in her early works, but her later works from the 1940s, known today as her best works, show less influence from her husband.
Unfortunately, her works did not attract much attention in the 1930s and 1940s, even in her home country. Her first one-woman show in Mexico was not held until 1953. For more than a decade after her death in 1954, Kahlo"s works remained largely unnoticed by the world, but in the 1970s her works began to gain international fame at last.

| A．a far better artist | B．a far more gifted artist |
| C．a much stronger person | D．a much more famous person |

| A．1930s | B．1940s | C．1950s | D．1970s |

The daughter sucked her teeth and 27 waited, asking repeatedly what he was doing. In about twenty minutes he turned off the 28 . He fished the carrots out and placed them in a bowl. He pulled the eggs out and placed them in a bowl. Then he spooned the coffee out and placed it in another. Turning to her he asked, “Darling, what do you see?”
“Carrots, eggs, and coffee,” she replied.

Pete"s grandfather had owned the shop until his death. Then the shop became Pete"s. The front window was full of beautiful old things: jewelry of a hundred years ago, gold and silver boxes, carved figures from China and Japan and other nations.
On this winter afternoon, a child stood there, her face close to the window. With large and serious eyes, she studied each piece in the window. Then, looking pleased, she stepped back from the window and went into the shop. Pete himself stood behind the counter. His eyes were cold as he looked at the small girl. “Please,” she began, “would you let me look at the pretty string of blue beads in the window?” Pete took the string of blue beads from the window. The beads were beautiful against his hand as he held the necklace up for her to see.
“They are just right,” said the child as though she were alone with the beads. “Will you wrap them up in pretty paper for me, please? I"ve been looking for a really wonderful Christmas present for my sister.”
“How much money do you have?” asked Pete.
She put a handful of pennies on the counter. “This is all I have,” she explained simply. “I"ve been saving the money for my sister"s present.”
Pete looked at her, his eyes thoughtful. Then he carefully closed his hand over the price mark on the necklace so that she could not see it. How could he tell her the price? The happy look in her big blue eyes struck him like the pain of an old wound.
“Just a minute,” he said and went to the back of the shop. “What"s your name?” he called out. He was very busy about something.
“Jean Grace,” answered the child.
When Pete returned to the front of the shop, he held a package in his hand. It was wrapped in pretty Christmas paper.
“There you are,” he said. “Don"t lose it on the way home.”
She smiled happily at him as she ran out of the door. Through the window he watched her go. He felt more alone than ever.
Something about Jean Grace and her string of beads had made him feel once more the pain of his old grief. The child"s hair was as yellow as the sunlight; her eyes were as blue as the sea. Once upon a time, Pete had loved a girl with hair of that same yellow and with eyes just as blue. And the necklace of blue stones had been meant for her.
But one rainy night, a car had gone off the road and struck the girl. After she died, Pete felt that he had nothing left in the world except his grief. The blue eyes of Jean Grace brought him out of that world of self-pity and made him remember again all that he had lost. The pain of remembering was so great that Pete wanted to run away from the happy Christmas shoppers who came to look at his beautiful old things during the next ten days.
When the last shopper had gone, late on Christmas Eve, the door opened and a young woman came in. Pete could not understand it, but he felt that he had seen her before. Her hair was sunlight yellow and her eyes were sea-blue. Without speaking, she put on the counter a package wrapped in pretty Christmas paper. When Pete opened the package, the string of blue beads lay again before him.
“Did this come from your shop?” she asked.
Pete looked at her with eyes no longer cold. “Yes, it did,” he said.
“Are the stones real?”
“Yes. They aren"t the best turquoise(绿松石), but they are real.”
“Can you remember to whom you sold them?”
“She was a small girl. Her name was Jean. She wanted them for her sister"s Christmas present.”
“How much were they?”
“I can"t tell you that,” he said. “The seller never tells anyone else what a buyer pays.”
“But Jean has never had more than a few pennies. How could she pay for them?”
“She paid the biggest price one can ever pay,” he said.
For a moment there was no sound in the little shop. Then somewhere in the city, church bells began to ring. It was midnight and the beginning of another Christmas Day.
“But why did you do it?” the girl asked.
Pete put the package into her hands.
“There is no one else to whom I can give a Christmas present,” he said. “It is already Christmas morning. Will you let me take you to your home? I would like to wish you a Merry Christmas at your door.”
And so, to the sound of many bells, Pete Richards and a girl whose name he had not yet learned walked out into the hope and happiness of a new Christmas Day.
