【解析】

試題分析：當有人給你一張面值大的錢和一個面值小的錢，你會要哪一個？一個小男孩通過拿小錢換來更多次的給予，應該說這是一個聰明的選擇。

1.詞義推測題。根據文章第一句話的意思（ 小男孩來到理發(fā)店，理發(fā)師對客人悄悄地說。）.可知選A。（低聲說。）

2.細節(jié)理解題。文章描述，理發(fā)師手里一手拿著一個一美元的票子。另一只手拿著2分錢讓男孩挑，由此可知選B。（他想向客人證明那男孩很傻。）

3.細節(jié)理解題。文章描述，男孩從冰激凌店出來，舔著冰激凌，由此可知選 D。（小男孩拿錢買了冰激凌）

4.細節(jié)理解題。 小男孩說，我拿走美元，這游戲就完了。由此可知選C。（小男孩總是拿兩分的硬幣，因為他不想停止這個游戲。）

5.推理判斷題。小男孩總是能拿到錢，說明男孩很聰明。又根據他說是話可知，選 B。（理發(fā)師最傻。）
