When I was about 13, my father would take me on short outings on Saturdays.On the way home, Dad      stopped at the Dairy Queen for 10-cent ice creams. I couldn't     it. but I could pray from the     we started heading home to that corner where we would either go straight for the ice cream or      and go home empty-handed. That corner     either mouth-watering excitement or     .

    On one special day. we were heading home. and again I was praying for the    sound of his offer. It     . "Would you like an ice cream today?" "That sounds great, Dad!" But then he said, "How would you like to      today?"

    Twenty cents! My mind reeled(震驚). I could afford it. I got a weekly allowance of 25 cents. plus some      for odd jobs. But      it was my money, ice cream wasn't a good use of it. In a fit of      , I said, "Well, in that case. I guess I'll      ." My father just said, "Okay, Son."

      But as we headed home, I realized how wrong I was and begged him to     . But he just said. "That's okay. We don't really need one." I felt       for my selfishness and ungratefulness. He didn't mind, or     act disappointedly.

      I     that generosity goes two ways and gratefulness sometimes costs more than "thank you". On that day gratefulness would have cost 20 cents and it would have been the    ice cream I'd ever had.

      I'Il tell you one more thing. We    another trip the next week. As we      the corner, I said, "Dad, would you like an ice cream today? My treat."

【解析】

試題分析：文章講述了作者和爸爸經(jīng)常在回家的路上買冰淇淋吃的故事。有一次，爸爸想讓作者請客，但作者舍不得花20美分買冰淇淋，就拒絕了請客。對此，爸爸沒有在意，作者卻十分后悔。后來，又有一次旅行，作者下定決心要請爸爸吃冰淇淋。

1.根據(jù)文章上句中的often 和第二段開頭一句中的again可知，我們常停下來買冰淇淋。Frequently經(jīng)常，故選C。

2.根據(jù)文章文意可知，我作為孩子，渴望得到冰淇淋。Aexpect意為“（心理上的）期待、渴望”。Cwait為不及物動詞，意思、語法上均不正確，其它選項意思不符。故選A。

3.根據(jù)上下文可知，從我們開始往家趕的“那一刻”，我就開始祈禱，希望能得到，故選D。

4.根據(jù)上文“go straight for the ice cream or…”和下文“go home empty-handed”可知，我們或者直接去買冰淇淋，或者空手而回。Cturn意為“轉(zhuǎn)彎、掉頭”，符合文意。故選C。

5.根據(jù)文章上下文和常識可知，在這里，我可以得到美味的冰淇淋，所以，這個拐角意味著(meant) 快樂或失望。故選B。

6.。根據(jù) “mouth-watering excitement”和文意，得到冰淇淋我會快樂，否則就是失望。Disappointment失望，故選D。

7.根據(jù)文意，我希望聽到父親主動提出買冰淇淋，對一個孩子來說，這樣的聲音是“beautiful”（美好的），故選D最佳，其它選項意思不符。

8.根據(jù)文章上文，我期盼的聲音終于來了（came），B項最佳。C項spoke的主語應該是人，而其它兩項不符合文意。故選A。

9.根據(jù)文章結(jié)尾處“treat”，父親這次讓我“出錢請客”。注意Cbuy不正確，因為，我可以買冰淇淋，但不一定我出錢。其它兩項意思不符。故選B。

10.根據(jù)文意和“plus”可知，我每個星期除了得到25美分，而且干零活得到“額外”的錢，故選A。

11.根據(jù)文意，我雖然有足夠的錢，但當（when）讓我拿來買冰淇淋時，我就舍不得。故選C。

12.根據(jù)下文可以推知，我出于自私（selfishness）而放棄了請客吃冰淇淋的念頭，故選D。

13.根據(jù)文意，我既然不愿請客吃冰淇淋，就只好放棄了。注意pass在此意思是“免掉，不要”。故選C。

14.上文提到I realized how wrong I was，所以我后悔自己的自私，從而央求父親掉轉(zhuǎn)車頭（turn back），故選A。

15.根據(jù)上文父親的回答可知，他實際上委婉的拒絕了我的懇求，所以我感到awful（懊惱的、糟糕的），故選B。

16.根據(jù)文意，父親對我的行為并不介意，甚至（even）沒表現(xiàn)出失望。故選A。

17.根據(jù)文意，我從此事認識到慷慨是雙向的。B learned意思是“認識到、意識到，從......得到教訓”，為最佳選項。故選B。

18.根據(jù)文意可推知，我在想：如果我當時請客吃了冰淇淋，將是對父親多年來的回報，也將是我所吃到的最好的冰淇淋。其它選項不符合文意。故選D。

19.考查固定短語。go on a trip為固定詞組，“去旅行”。故選C。

20.根據(jù)上文可知，我已經(jīng)做錯了一次。當再次出游時，到拐角處時，我就主動提出請客，approach符合文意。故選D。
