Question

There were a family of nine: the father, the mother, two boys and five girls. The father worked as a kitchen cleaner at a local school and the rest of the family did the same job-----clean people’s yards.  1.     

Then one day, the father lost his job at the school. He asked me if I could allow him to clean my yard.   2.    He and his family came to our house three times a week to clean the yard.

One Sunday morning, the father suffered a stroke and died in the hospital two days later. The poor family had lost their main bread-winner. The eldest boy had just completed high school and was getting ready to go to college.   3.   

For the following years, Andrew, my husband and I did all our best to help make sure the family got their education, and provided some daily needs, like clothes.

   4.   . They didn’t have a toilet in their home! Imagine! A mother, a fifteen-year-old girl, and four smaller children without a toilet or bathroom!

The next morning, my friend Peter came to my house. Then I told him I wanted to do something for the poor family. As a helpful man, he promised to offer some money. So together we built a bathroom and a toilet for this family in three days.   5.   . And we felt happy, too.

A．Clearly, they lived a poor life.

B．The others were just little kids

C．Realizing his situation, I offered him the job at once.

D．This brought a lot of smiles and happiness to the family.

E.Every day we gave her some pocket money.

F.We visited the family once and one thing made us greatly surprised.

G.You would be surprised to know that this poor family lived in just two rooms!

試題分析：本文講述了我和我的朋友們把一個貧窮人家的故事。

1.A 根據(jù)前句The father worked as a kitchen cleaner at a local school and the rest of the family did the same job-----clean people’s yards.可知爸爸媽媽所做的工作都是報酬很低的工作，所以他們的生活很貧窮。故A正確。

2.C 根據(jù)上句He asked me if I could allow him to clean my yard. 可知他失去了工作，向我求援。我立刻就給他提供了工作。故C正確。

3.B 根據(jù)前句The eldest boy had just completed high school and was getting ready to go to college.可知最大的孩子要讀大學(xué)。其余的孩子都還小。故B項符合上下文。

4.F 根據(jù)下句. They didn’t have a toilet in their home! 可知沒有廁所，這一點讓我們很驚訝。故B項符合上下文。

5.D 根據(jù)前句So together we built a bathroom and a toilet for this family in three days.可知我們給他們修了一個浴室，這讓他們很開心。故D項符合上下文。

考點：考察故事類短文閱讀

點評：本文講述了我和我的朋友們把一個貧窮人家的故事。本題的關(guān)鍵在于要根據(jù)上下文的語境來找出串聯(lián)的信息點，把握上下文之間的邏輯關(guān)系，通過前后的意思連貫性及細致性用心的答題，定能完成的很好。
