Question

We went into a secondhand shop to get out of the rain. I took my 6-year-old daughter’s hand and we started to walk around. Suddenly she reached out her hand to touch a pair of shiny black shoes.

“Buy for me?” she asked.

“Oh, Sweetie, they are tap dancing (踢踏舞) shoes. You aren’t taking tap dance.”

“Buy for me?” she repeated.

“Well, let’s try them on.”

She sat on the floor and took off her bright pink rain boots. When she stood up we heard “click”. She took a step, “click, click, click.”

The sun came out and we went on our way. Our next stop was the grocery store. “Click, click, click…” people turned to look as we entered the store. People would never allow their daughter to wear tap dancing shoes to the grocery store.?

“Excuse me, dear. Why would you allow(允許) your daughter to wear tap dancing shoes here? They make such a noise.”

“Isn’t it wonderful?”

“Wonderful? My dear, this is not the place to wear those shoes.”

“You don’t understand. When she was a baby, doctors told us that she would never walk or talk. It has taken a lot of hard work and patience, but she asked for the shoes and the ‘click, click, click’ says that she can walk,” I said.

My daughter is 18 now and will graduate from grade 12 in June. It has not always been easy, but it has all been worthwhile (值得的). She has taught me that it doesn’t matter what others think. They don’t walk in your shoes.

【解析】

試題分析：這篇短文主要介紹了作者和女兒在避雨時(shí)女兒非常想穿踢踏鞋而穿踢踏鞋進(jìn)入百貨店是不被允許的。作者的女兒小時(shí)候,醫(yī)生說(shuō)她永遠(yuǎn)不會(huì)走路或說(shuō)話，所以現(xiàn)在她能穿踢踏鞋，是作者最在乎的。這個(gè)告訴我們有時(shí)別人并不理解我們，所以不要總在乎其他人怎么想。

1.We went into a secondhand shop to get out of the rain描述，可知他們是為了避雨進(jìn)的二手店。故選C。

2.短文Why would you allow(允許) your daughter to wear tap dancing shoes here? They make such a noise.”可知踢踏鞋發(fā)出很大的噪音。有人問(wèn)母親，為什么你允許你的女兒在這里穿踢踏鞋。故選A。

3.She has taught me that it doesn’t matter what others think. They don’t walk in your shoes.以及上下文可知，通過(guò)這件事告訴給我其他人想什么并不重要。他們沒(méi)有穿著你的鞋走路，意思是說(shuō)，并不理解你的想法，不知道你是怎么想的。故選A。

4.歸納理解題。根據(jù)短文敘述可知雜貨店里的人并不理解作者為什么讓女兒穿踢踏鞋，而作者看重的是女兒能走路。it doesn’t matter what others think其他人想什么并不重要。故選D。
