【语篇解读】 本文为记叙文。
文中作者回忆了早年读书期间,假期返校清除落叶的一段经历。
1.Thestatement“myhandsandmyfingersstillremember”(Para.1)meansthat“________”.
A.theauthor'

B.theauthorseldomdidsuchhardworkasthecleaningup

D.theauthor'
shandswerehisonlytoolforthecleaning
解析:
作者一开始用了两个“remember”表明他对假期返校要清除落叶一事记忆深刻。
第二段提到自己在为学校清除落叶时没有别的工具,唯一的工具就是手,由此可推断“手和指尖都记得”是因为在大扫除中,作者的手作为唯一的清洁工具受了不少的罪。
答案:
D

A.hewastoolazy
B.thereweremanyfallenleavesontheground
C.theschoolyardwascoveredwithmud

第一段最后一句提到假期过后学校会堆满落叶,第二段校长发布了让学生大扫除的命令,两者之间的因果关系显而易见,因此本题应选B项。
B
3.Theheadmasteraskedtheolderboysto________.
A.beatthosewhoworkedslowly
B.treatthesmallboysaspeanuts
C.takechargeoftheprocessofthecleaning
D.dothecleaningallbythemselves
第二段最后一句,特别是其中的“see”,表明校长让大孩子们做大扫除的“监工”,负责带领其他孩子们把学校打扫干净。
这也可以从该句的“...oryou'
(否则你们就要为此负责)”看出答案为C项。
C
4.AccordingtoPara.3,iftheauthorhadanymoneyonhim,hemostprobably________.
A.gaveittothebigboyssoastopleasethem

C.spentitallonhismiddaymeal
D.spentitbuyingmiddaymealsforthebigboys
第三段第四句中的“...thecoinschangedhandsatonce.”可理解为“钱马上就会易主”,即钱到了大孩子们的口袋里,由此可知选A项。
A
5.Whenreceivingcomplaints,theheadmasterwoulddealwiththebigboysbymeansof________.
A.slightpunishment B.harshcriticism
C.completeindifferenceD.goodbeating
根据题干中的complaints可定位到最后一段开头两句。
该段第二句表明校长对大孩子们的惩罚很轻,因此本题应选A项。
