Question

It was the first snow of winter — an exciting day for every child but not for most teachers. Up until now, I had been able to dress myself for recess(课间休息), but today I would need some help. Miss Finlayson, my kindergarten teacher, had been through first snow days many times in her long career, but I think she may still remember this one.

I managed to get into my wool snow pants. But I struggled with my jacket because it didn’t fit well. It was a hand-me-down from my brother, and it made me wonder why I had to wear his ugly clothes. At least my hat and matching scarf(围巾) were mine, and they were quite pretty. Finally it was time to have Miss Finlayson help me with my boots(靴子). In her calm, motherly voice she said, "By the end of winter, you will be able to put on your own boots.” I didn’t realize at the time that this was more a statement of hope than of confidence.

I handed her my boots and stuck out my foot. Like most children, I expected the adult to do all the work. After much wiggling and pushing, she managed to get first one into place and then, with a sigh, worked the second one on too.

I announced，“They’re on the wrong feet.” With the grace that only experience can bring，she struggled to get the boots off and went through the joyless task of putting them on again. Then I said，“These aren’t my boots, you know.” As she pulled the offending boots from my feet, she still managed to look both helpful and interested. Once they were off, I said，“They are my brother’s boots. My mother makes me wear them, and I hate them!” Somehow, from long years of practice, she managed to act as though I wasn’t an annoying(烦人的) little girl．She pushed and shoved, less gently this time, and the boots were returned to their proper place on my feet. With a great sigh of relief, seeing the end of her struggle with me, she asked, “Now, where are your gloves?’’

I looked into her eyes and said, “I didn’t want to lose them, so I put them into the toes of my boots.”

试题分析：

1.细节题;从第二段的句子：But I struggled with my jacket because it didn’t fit well. It was a hand-me-down from my brother, 说明夹克是哥哥的，可知答案在BC之间选，从At least my hat and matching scarf(围巾) were mine,这句话可以排除C。选B

2. 推理判断题。根据文章大意可知作者说明Miss Finlayson将永远记住这第一个下雪天的原因是作者捉弄了她，故本题选A。

3.推理判断题。根据第八自然段中的she pushed and pushed，less gently this time可知本题选B。

4.归纳题：从全篇文章看我先自己设法穿上了棉裤和和我哥哥原来穿过的上衣，然后拿起我的靴子，故意刁难老师，我伸出双脚，等着老师给我穿，但等她给我穿上以后，我大声抗议道：你穿错脚了。老师用力地替我换鞋子。我说：你知道，这是我哥哥的靴子，我讨厌它们。等老师给我穿上后，她又问我：你的手套呢？我幸灾乐祸地说：我害怕丢了它们，所以将它们藏在了我的靴子里。

所以老师要给她穿四次她才出去玩。选D
