【解析】

試題分析：這篇文章主要講了圣誕節(jié)之前，馬克用自己攢的錢去超市買節(jié)日禮物，當他付款的時候，發(fā)現(xiàn)錢不見了，一個女士過來幫助付款，告訴他等他長大后也要幫助別人。

1.根據(jù)文章The third Saturday in December可知在12月18 號左右，故在圣誕節(jié)之前，選Ｂ。

2. 細節(jié)里解題。從Mark picked up a hand basket and went in while I wailed and watched in the car可知在作者等待停車時Mark已自己提了籃子在超市了，故選Ｂ。

3.根據(jù)There was a hole in his pocket, but no money可知Mark的口袋有個洞錢不見了，故選Ｃ。

4.根據(jù)A woman came up to Mark and took him in her arms及Mark took the money, dried his tears and ran back to the checkout counter可知婦女給了錢讓Mark去付款，故應(yīng)該感謝她，選A。

5. 主旨題的考查。根據(jù)后面婦女給了錢讓Mark付款及她說的話It would be the most wonderful gift you could give me可知Ｄ正確，而Ａ,Ｂ只是文章的一個方面，文章并沒有提到一家人，故Ｃ也不對。

考點：故事類閱讀。
