试题分析：短文大意：一天早晨，埃里克的父母给了埃里克一些钱到一家商店买汉堡包。在那里他看见一个老人看起来非常虚弱。他问过那个老人才知道是因为丢了钱，早饭什么也没有吃。埃里克把老人带到最近的餐馆。但那人只点了一杯水。埃里克为他感到难过，于是他请服务员给他拿来一个面包和一杯咖啡。那老人太饿，很快就把所有的食物都吃光了。他很感激埃里克。让他们惊讶的是那食物是免费的礼物，因为那天是老板的生日。

1.B考查动词及语境理解。句意：当你学会为别人考虑时，你就成了男子汉了。Help帮助；helping是help的现在分词或动名词形式； to help诗help的不定式形式；helped是help的过去式或过去分词。think about doing sth考虑做某事，是一个固定短语，所以选B。

2.C考查形容词及语境理解。句意：一天早晨，他的父母给了埃里克一些钱到一家商店买汉堡包。a few 几个；few几乎没有；some一些； many许多。give sb something表示给某人某物，因money是不可数名词，few和a few，many都用来修饰可数名词的复数形式，故用some来修饰，所以选C。

3.A考查形容词及语境理解。句意：他看见一个老人在那里。那人看起来很虚弱。sick患病的；tired累的； happy愉快的；fine好的。根据下文内容提示可知这位老人非常饥饿，故应看上去应是非常虚弱，所以选A。

5.D考查反身代词及语境理解。句意：但那人只点了一杯水给他自己。themselves他们自己；herself她自己；myself我自己；himself他自己。根据语境可知选择himself表示老人只给自己要了一杯水。所以选D。

6.B考查动词及语境理解。句意：埃里克为他感到难过，于是他请服务员给拿来一个面包和一杯咖啡。take 带走；bring带来；taking是take的现在分词后动名词形式；bringing是bring的现在分词后动名词形式。ask sb to do sth表示让某人做某事；把东西拿来要用动词bring，所以选B。

7.C考查形容词及语境理解。句意：那老人很饿，他很快就把所有的食物都吃光了。full满的； worried担忧的；hungry饥饿的；sad悲伤的。根据语境可知老人非常饥饿，所以选C。
