17．My wife and I have always been friendly with the clerks at the local store．I don't think many people appreciate what a difficult job these clerks have．They work for a little money and I often wonder how they make ends meet．
One of the clerks，Charlie，was always wearing his glasses but he didn't one day．I asked him about it and he said they'd been out of order and that he couldn't afford a new pair．His family needed money．It was clear that he was having a difficult time．
We wanted to help him，so we turned to our own eye doctor for help with a plan．We had his secretary contact him，asking him to come in for an eye exam for free．We told the doctor to let him order whatever glasses he wanted and that we would pay for them．Although Charlie questioned what was going on，the doctor just told him that someone had offered the money for his new glasses．When we went in to pay the bill，the doctor told us he was touched by our idea so that he waived the exam fee and only charged us for half the price of the glasses!
It was so wonderful to see Charlie in his new glasses and he enjoyed telling all the regular customers how the gift came about．I'm sure that upon hearing his story，ideas of kindness may have come in the minds of many people．

24．Why didn't the clerk Charlie wear glasses one day？C
A．It was very warm and fine．
B．His glasses were missing．
C．His old glasses were broken．
D．He forgot to wear his glasses．
25．From the passage，we can infer thatD．
A．Charlie was a young man with skills
B．Charlie knew who paid the money for the new glasses
C．Charlie completely accepted the money for the new glasses
D．Charlie couldn't support his family with enough money
26．The underlined word"waived"in the third paragraph can be replaced byB．
A．took up         B．gave up    
C．cut down        D．put off
27．Which of the following could be the best title for the passage？A
A．Customers'Gift to an Employee
B．A Friendly Clerk-Charlie
C．The Wonderful Feeling of Helping others
D．An Expensive Pair of Glasses．

分析 文章講述了我是商店的老顧客，同情關(guān)心店員們的生活，幫助一名員工解決生活困難給他配了一副眼鏡的故事．

解答 24．C細(xì)節(jié)推理題．根據(jù)第二段I asked him about it and he said they'd been out of order and that he couldn't afford a new pair．可知Charlie的眼鏡壞了，又買不起新的所以就沒戴眼鏡．故選C．
25．D推理判斷題．根據(jù)第二段that he couldn't afford a new pair．His family needed money．It was clearthat he was having a difficult time．可知Charlie掙錢少家里需要錢，他沒有足夠的錢養(yǎng)家，故選D．
26．B猜測詞意題．此處指醫(yī)生被我們的舉動所感動，于是沒有要檢查費(fèi)，眼鏡也只收了半價(jià)．waive是動詞"放棄"，與B項(xiàng)同義，故選B．
27．A主旨大意題．文章講述了我是商店的老顧客，同情關(guān)心店員們的生活，幫助一名員工解決生活困難給他配了一副眼鏡的故事．A項(xiàng)"顧客送給店員的禮物"既能概括全文意思又能吸引讀者，適合作為文章的標(biāo)題，故選A．

10．Last week I visited one of my old neighborhoods in Washington D．C．I had not been there for twenty years and as I walked along the street，my mind was flooded by memories of the past．I saw the old apartment building where I had lived and the playground where I had played．As I viewed these once familiar surroundings，images of myself as a child there came to mind．However，what I saw and what I remembered were not the same．I sadly realized that the best memories are those left untouched．
    My old apartment building，as I remember，was bright and alive．It was more than just a place to live．It was a movie house，a space station，or whatever my young mind could imagine．I would steal away with my friends and play in the basement．This was always exciting because it was so cool and dark，and there were so many things there to hide among．There was a small river in the back of the building．We would go there to lie in the shade of trees and enjoy ourselves．
However，what I saw was completely different．The apartment building was now in disrepair．What was once more than a place to live looked hardly worth living in．The windows were all broken．The once clean walls were covered with dirty marks．The river was hardly recognizable．The water was polluted and the trees and flowers were all dead．The once sweet-smelling river now smelled terrible．It was really heartbreaking to see all this．
I do not regret having seen my old neighborhood．However，I do not think my innocent childhood memories can ever be the same．I suppose it is true when they say，"You can never go home again．"

57．How did the writer feel when he visited his old neighborhood in Washington D．C．？A
A．Very sad．
B．Quite excited．
C．Very regretful．
D．Greatly surprised．
58．On his visit to his hometown，the writer found the old apartment bu ildingB．
A．had been repaired                
B．seemed unfit to live in
C．could hardly be recognized         
D．looked dirty and smelt horrible
59．"You can never go home again"in the last sentence of the passage means thatC．
A．a(chǎn) visit to one's hometown will bring back many sad memories
B．one should never revisit his hometown after many years of absence
C．one will never find his hometown the same as it was in his childhood memory
D．a(chǎn) visit to one's hometown will bring back one's pleasant memories of home．
