【解析】

试题分析：本文的作者总是觉得生活中没有什么能令他激动的事情，他的家具都旧了，但是他没有钱去更换。后来两个收废品的孩子改变了作者的这个想法，他知道自己相比那两个孩子来说是多么的富有。

1.B考查形容词及语境的理解。句意：我家里的家具都旧了，但是我没有钱去更换。modern 现代的；old 老的，旧的；new 新的；special特殊的。根据下句话And I didn’t have money to change it可知，作者家里的家具都旧了，故应选B。

2.A考查名词及语境的理解。句意：但是两个贫穷的孩子改变了我的想法。idea 想法；house 房子；money 钱；cups杯子。根据短文的第一句话可知，作者总是觉得生活中没有什么令人兴奋的事情，下文中提到的两个孩子让作者的这个想法发生了改变。故应选A。

3.C考查形容词及语境的理解。句意：一天这两个孩子来到我的房子外面，他们的衣服很破。new 新的；beautiful 美丽的；broken 破的；expensive昂贵的。根据下文“Do you have any old papers, lady?”可知，这两个孩子是收废品的，因此他们的衣服是破旧的，故选C。

4.D考查副词及语境的理解。句意：我想说没有，这时我看到了他们的脚—他们没有穿鞋。thanks 谢谢；yes 是的，有；bye 再见；no不，没有。根据上文可知，两个孩子来问作者有没有旧报纸，作者本来想回答没有的，但是下文“Come in and I’ll make you a cup of juice.”，他让两个孩子进来喝果汁，可见他并没有说出没有来。故应选D。

5.C考查名词及语境的理解。句意：我想说没有，这时我看到了他们的脚—他们没有穿鞋。hands 手；face 脸；feet 脚；legs腿。根据下句话They didn’t wear shoes可知，作者是看到了他们的脚。故选C。

6.B考查动词及语境的理解。句意：我给了他们一些果汁，他们喝了。这个女孩手里拿着空空的杯子，看着。saw 看见；drank 喝；hid 藏；poured倒。根据文意可知，作者给他们果汁喝，他们喝了，所以后面提到empty cup。故选B。

7.A考查副词及语境的理解。句意：这个女孩小心地把杯子放回到杯托里。carefully 小心地，仔细地；quickly 快速地；happily 开心地；badly糟糕地。根据文意可知，两个收废品的小孩被作者叫进家里喝果汁，因此他们对作者家的东西都是非常小心地，故应选A。

8.D考查连词及语境的理解。句意：我的杯子和杯托都非常普通，但是他们非常相配。and 和，而且；so 因此；because 因为；but但是。根据句意可知，这里是转折的关系，故选D。

9.B考查介词及语境的理解。句意：我再次看着我的房子。for ，at ，out of 和after都能和空前的look组成短语，look for寻找；look at看……；look out of向……外面看；look after照顾。根据句意可知，作者看着自己的房子，故应选B。

10.C考查系动词及语境的理解。句意：所有的东西在我看来好像都更漂亮了。sounded 听起来；tasted 尝起来；seemed 好像；smelled闻起来。根据上句话I looked....the house again可知，作者看着他的房子，故应选C。
