【解题导语】一位80岁的老太太站在楼上,看着远处,期待邮差给她送来女儿给她的80岁生日礼物。在等待与期盼中,她等来的是女儿寄来的一张冷冰冰的支票。伤心与失望中,她把这张支票撕掉了。
1.B 下文第四段说到这个小男孩帮她把信件从一楼拿上来,因此选B项,用bring sth.up表示“把某物拿上来”。
2.A 名叫约翰尼的小男孩会在有她的信件的时候从一楼把信件给她拿上来,可是这样的时候很少。语境表示很少有她的邮件到来,occasion表示“……的时候”。
3.C 老太太相信,女儿不会忘记今天是她的生日的。这里用C项表示“不会”。
4.D 根据第一段可知,老太太很少收到信件,因此选D项,“尽管女儿在其他时候很少写信给她”。seldom“很少,不常”。
5.B 这里叙述老太太最爱的女儿去世了,因此选B项,“不幸地”。
6.C 从语境可知那天是老太太的80岁生日,结合选项可知应选C项,“80岁生日是个很特殊的生日”,因此她穿上最好看的衣服,等着女儿的到来。A项意为“非正式的,随便的”;B项意为“遥远的”;D项意为“传统的”。
7.A 老太太心想,即使女儿不能来,至少她也会寄来一份生日礼物。根据上下文语境可知应选A项,表示“即使,虽然”。
8.C 女儿如果不能来,那么一定会寄来礼物的,老太太对此深信不疑。be sure of 表示“确信”。
