I was 14 when Mr. Ingram hired me as a farmhand. It was the first time I was actually for work. One day Mr. Ingram found an old truck that was in the soft,sandy soil of our field. It was full of melons that someone had tried to from our farm before his truck got caught in the mud.
Mr. Ingram explained that the truck’s owner would be soon, and he wanted me to watch and learn. It wasn’t long a local guy with a terrible reputation for fighting and stealing showed up with his two fully-grown sons. They looked really .
Calmly Mr. Ingram said, “Well, I see you want to some watermelons from us.”
There was a long before the man answered, “Yeah, I guess so. What are you for them?”
“Twenty-five cents each.”
“Well, I suppose that would be enough if you help me get my truck out of here,” the man said.
It turned out to be our biggest sale of the summer, and an awful, perhaps violent incident had been . After they left, Mr. Ingram smiled and said to me, “Son, if you don’t forgive your , you’re going to run out of friends.”

【解析】
試題分析：本文講述了 Mr. Ingram在發現有人偷瓜后，冷靜處理，使有可能出現的暴力事件轉變成一樁生意，避免了沖突。
1.考查動詞。Trusted信賴；ready使準備好；paid支付；offered提供。句意是：這是第一次我被支付報酬的工作。故選C。
2.考查動詞。Stuck卡住；broken破壞；deserted遺棄；lost遺失。句意是：一天英拉姆先生發現一輛舊卡車陷在地里的軟沙土里。故選A。
3.考查動詞。 Remove移動；steal偷竊；sell賣；hide隱藏。句意是：車里裝滿了西瓜，在車陷在泥里之前從我們農場偷西瓜。由句意可知此處選B。
4.考查動詞。Purchasing采購；bargaining交易；returning回歸；searching搜索。句意是：英拉姆先生解釋說卡車的主人不久就會回來，故選C。
5.考查連詞。Till直到…為止；before在…之前；that因為，以至于；since自…以后。句意是：在一位以打架和偷竊而有壞名聲的當地人帶著他的兩個成年兒子露面之前沒有多長時間。故選B
6.考查形容詞。Astonished驚訝的；anxious焦慮的；familiar熟悉的；angry生氣的。名聲不好又帶著人來，更趨向于他們看起來是生氣的。故選D。
7.考查動詞。Borrow借；buy買；steal偷；carry搬運。根據后文Twenty-five cents each每個25美分，可知這里更趨向于買西瓜，故選B。
8.考查名詞。Break破裂；discussion討論；watching觀察；silence沉默。 句意是：在那個滿人開口回答之前沉默了很長時間。故選D。
9.考查動詞詞組。Getting for以（某價錢）購得；offering for對…報價；paying for為…付錢；finding for作有利于…的判決。句意是：西瓜出價多少，最貼切的是A選項，故選A。
10.考查形容詞。Necessary必要的；helpful有幫助的；easy容易的；fair公平的。句意是：如果你剛我把車弄出來，我想這價錢是公平的。故選D。
11.考查動詞。Stopped停止；avoided避免；handled使用，負責；taught教授 。句意是：這結果是我們夏季最大的一單生意，而且一件可怕的暴力事件也被避免發生了。由句意可知選B。
12.考查名詞。Mistakes錯誤；neighbors鄰居；enemies敵人；Melons瓜。句意是：孩子，如果你不原諒你的敵人，你就會失去你的朋友。由于后面是朋友，此句又是轉折關系，故應選與朋友相對的詞，故選C。
