[語篇解讀]本文講述13歲的比爾認(rèn)為自己已長大成人，然而父母 卻不這樣認(rèn)為，他們告訴他，當(dāng)他開始考慮幫助別人時，他才是真正的大人。聽從父母的建議，有一天去買牛奶的時候，比爾幫助了一個無 家可歸的老人。

1. A本題考查動詞短語辨析。think about考慮;depend on 依賴;give up放棄;go on繼續(xù)。結(jié)合句意“直到你開始考慮幫助他人時，你才是真正的大人”可知，A項正確。

2. B buy sth.for sb.為某人買某物，固定短語搭配。

3. C 由下句中的What’s wrong with you?可知，這個老人應(yīng)是看起來生病了。sick病態(tài)的，不舒服的;afraid害怕的;glad高興的;angry生氣的。

4. D 根據(jù)上文老人的話 “ I'm hungry. I haven’t had any food for two days."可知比爾要帶老人去的地方是飯館。

5. D send out 發(fā)出;get down 下來，下(車) ；give back 歸還;take away 帶走，拿走。根據(jù)上下文意思可知吃完飯后，服務(wù)員把盤子收走。 故D項為正確答案。

6. C much接不可數(shù)名詞，A、D兩項排除。advice建議，trouble麻煩， 結(jié)合句意可知C項符合語境。

7. A根據(jù)句意可知老人是說“我永遠也不會忘了你的恩情”，故A項正確。never從未，決不;always總是;usually通常;sometimes有時。

8. B 由老人說“You are a very good young man."可知，比爾聽了之后是很高興的。

9. A 根據(jù)下文的意思“因為是老板的生日，且他們是那天第一批顧客，所以這頓飯免費”可知這里指比爾和老人了解之后都感到很驚喜。

10. D這里表示因果關(guān)系，解釋原因要用because。

[長難句]Bill and the old man learned in surprise that the food was free because it was the birthday of the boss,and they were the first customers (顧 客) that day.因為那天是老板的生日，且他們是第一批顧客，所以那頓 飯是免費的。當(dāng)比爾和老人得知這些后都感到驚喜。本句是一個復(fù)合句。由that引導(dǎo)的賓語從句中還包含了一個原 因狀語從句 because it was the birthday of the boss,and they were the first customers that day。
