Question

I was ten when I first sat with my grandmother behind the cashier(收銀臺)in her general store. 　 小題1:　I quickly learned the importance of treating customers politely and saying “thank you”.
At first I was paid in candy. 　 小題2:　I worked every day after school, and during the summer and on weekends and holidays from 8 a. m. to 7 p. m. . My father helped me set up a bank account. 　 小題3: 
By the time I was 12, My grandmother thought I had done such a good job that she promoted me to selling cosmetics(化妝品). I developed the ability to look customers directly in the eye. Even though I was just a kid, women would ask me such things as “What color do you think I should wear? ”I took a real interest in their questions and was able to translate what they wanted into makeup(化妝)ideas. 小題4: 
The job taught me a valuable lesson: to be a successful salesperson, you didn’t need to be a rocket scientist—you needed to be a great listener. 　 小題5:　Expect they are no longer women purchasing cosmetics from me; instead, they are kids who tell me which toys they would like to see designed and developed.

A．Later I received 50 cents an hour.

B．Before long, she let me sit there by myself.

C．I ended my selling a record amount of cosmetics.

D．Today I still carry that lesson with me: I listen to customers.

E. My grandma’s trust taught me how to handle responsibility.
F. Soon I found myself looking more beautiful than ever before.
G. Watching my money grow was more rewarding than anything I could have bought.

Answer 1

小題1:B
小題2:A
小題3:G
小題4:C
小題5:D

小題1:選B。從后一句I quickly learned the importance of treating customers politely and saying“thank you”. 可推知, 作者的祖母先讓作者跟著她學, 然后讓作者獨立工作, 所以他很快懂得有禮貌地對待客人的重要性。
小題2:選A。前面有at first, 和本項中的later一致。
小題3:選G。根據(jù)前一句的My father helped me set up a bank account. 可確定答案。
小題4:選C。同樣根據(jù)前一句確定答案。
小題5:選D。上文提到a valuable lesson, 這里承接上下文。
