文章大意：

本文是一篇记叙文。

主要讲述了作者帮助自己常去的便利店中的职员买了一副新眼镜的故事。

59．Whydidn'ttheclerk“Charlie”wearglassesoneday?

A.Apairofglasseswastooexpensiveforhim.

B.Heroldglasseswerebroken.

C.Herglassesweremissing.

D.Sheforgottowearglasses.

答案：

B　细节理解题。

根据第二段第二句中的“Icommentedonitandshesaidthey'dbeenbroken...”可知，B项是正确的。

60．Fromthepassage,wecaninferthat________.

A．Charliewasayoungman

B．Charlieknewwhodonatedmoneyforthenewglasses

C．theCharlie'sincomewasverylittle

D．Charliemustbenearsighted

答案：

C　推理判断题。

根据第一段第三句的“TheyworkforalittleoverminimumwageandIoftenwonderhowtheymakeendsmeet.”可知，Charlie作为该便利店的一员，工资只能比最低收入多一点。

故C项是正确的。

而D项文中并未提及，故排除；根据第三段的“...askinghertocomeinforaneyeexamfreeofcharge.”可知，Charlie是女性，故A项错；由最后一段的“Shewillneverknowwhothegiftwasfrom...”可知，B项也不对。

61．Theunderlinedword“waived”inthethirdparagraphcanbereplacedby________.

A.gaveupB.tookup

C.cutdownD.putoff

答案：

A　词义猜测题。

根据下文的“...andonlychargedusforhalfthepriceoftheglasses！

”可知，医生因我们的行为而备受感动，因此没有索要检查费并且仅向我们要了眼镜的一半的费用。

故可知A项正确。

短语giveup“放弃”；takeup“从事，占据”；cutdown“削减”；putoff“推迟”。

62．Thebesttitleofthepassageshouldbe________.

A.TheWonderfulFeelingofHelpingOthers

B.Customer'sGifttoanEmployee

C.AFriendlyClerk—Charlie

D.ANewPairofGlasses

答案：

B　主旨大意题。

本文主要讲述了一位常去当地便利店的顾客看到一位职员眼镜坏了，却买不起一副新的眼镜，从而产生要帮助她的想法。

并通过自己眼科医生的帮助给这位职员买了一副新的眼镜的故事。

故选B项。
