Question

A little boy came up to his mother in the kitchen one evening while she was cooking supper, and passed her a piece of paper that he had written something on. After his mom dried her hands on an apron (围裙), she read what it was on the paper .

For cutting the grass: $5.00

For cleaning up my room this week: $1.00

For going to the supermarket for you: $1.00

For looking after my little brother while you went shopping: $1.00

For taking out the trash: $1.00

For getting a good report card: $5.00

For cleaning up the garden: $2.00

Total: $16.00

Well, his mother looked at him for a while, and then she picked up the pen, turned over the paper he’d written on, and this was what she wrote:

For the nine months I carried you while you were growing inside me, free.

For all the nights that I’ve sat up with you, fed you and sung songs for you, free.

For all the tears (泪水) that you’ve caused through the years, free.

For all the nights that were filled with worries, free.

For the toys, food, clothes and even cleaning your nose, free.

Son, when you add it up, the full cost of my love is free.

When the boy finished reading what his mother had written, there were tears in his eyes and he looked straight at his mother and said, “Mom, I sure do love you.” And then he took the pen and in great big letters he wrote: "PAID IN FULL".

试题分析：本文叙述了一个小男孩把自己所做的事列下来，并计算出应付的工钱，总共是16美元，交给他妈妈，认为他妈妈会给他钱。他妈妈没有说什么，只是在之上写出她为小男孩所做的事，所有的爱都是免费。小男孩看完他妈妈写的内容，感动得流出了眼泪。

1. $16.00可知男孩走进厨房是来找他妈妈要钱的，故此处与文中意思相符，故为T。

2. his mom dried her hands on an apron (围裙), she read what it was on the paper .可知他的妈妈在围裙上擦干了手，然后读了纸上的东西，并没有马上给他钱，故此处与文中意思不符，故为F。

3. looking after my little brother while you went shopping: $1.00可知当小男孩的妈妈去购物时，他来照顾他的弟弟，而不是妹妹。故此处与文中意思不符，故为F。

4. $16.00可知小男孩认为他的妈妈应付给他16美元，此处与文中意思相符，故为T。

5. when you add it up, the full cost of my love is free.可知小男孩的妈妈为他所做的一切是免费的，此处与文中意思相符，故为T。
