Question

【題目】

When Mrs. Klein told her first graders to draw a picture of something for which they were thankful, she thought how little these children, who lived in a terrible neighborhood, actually had to be thankful for. Since it was Thanksgiving Day, she knew that most of the class would draw pictures of turkeys (火雞) or of Thanksgiving tables with lots of food.

What made Mrs. Klein surprised was Douglas’s picture. Douglas was so shy and likely to be found away from the others as they went outside for games. Douglas’s drawing was simply this:

A hand, clearly, but whose hand? The class was attracted by his picture. “I think it must be the hand of his mum or dad that brings us food,” said one student.

“A farmer,” said another, “because they grow the turkeys.”

“It looks more like a policeman, and they protect us.” “I think,” said Lavinia, who was always so serious, “that it is supposed to be all the hands that help us, but Douglas could only draw one of them.”

Mrs. Klein was very happy to see that the class showed so much interest in Douglas’ picture. When she had the others at work on another project, she went over to him and asked whose hand it was.

Douglas answered in a very low voice, “It’s yours, Teacher.”

Then Mrs. Klein remembered that she had taken Douglas by the hand from time to time; she often did that with the children. But that it should have meant so much to Douglas …

Perhaps, she thought, this was her Thanksgiving, and everybody’s Thanksgiving—not the material things we receive, but the small ways that we give something to others.

【1】細節(jié)理解題。根據文章第一段第三行Since it was Thanksgiving Day, she knew that most of the class would draw pictures of turkeys (火雞) or of Thanksgiving tables with lots of food.“因為那天是感恩節(jié)，她知道班上大多數人都會畫火雞或感恩節(jié)餐桌上有很多食物的圖畫。”可知故事發(fā)生在感恩節(jié)，故答案選A。
