【要点综述】“我”四岁时母亲给了“我”一件特殊的圣诞礼物:
人娃娃——我可爱的弟弟Richard。
但后来Richard发高烧差点夭折,经医院抢救得生,这使我更加珍爱我的“人娃娃”。
56.A 细节理解题。
虽然表面上是有了一个娃娃,但事实上是有了亲弟弟。
57.D 词义猜测题。
从该句前半部分中的“hopeless”,“pitiful”,and“dying”可知该词意思是“令人害怕的”。
虽然其他三个词均表示消极含义,但只有fearful表示“我”害怕“弟弟”离“我”而去。
58.C 推理判断题。
从第四段最后两句Ashespoke,hiseyesfilledwithtears.I’dneverseenhimcrybefore.可知父亲感到十分伤心。
59.C 主旨大意题。
第一段一开始便定义我的弟弟Richard是一件特殊的圣诞礼物。
虽然弟弟Richard差点离我们而去,但后来还是得以平安回家,因此圣诞节并不悲惨。
B和D选项外延过大,此段材料只是截取生活中的一个片段,并非整个和Richard一起生活的全部。
