"Oh!" I said. "Please  13  here." I went into the room. I felt really bad about her  14  but--- Was she telling me the   15  or trying to cheat me out of my money?

Finally, I   16 to help her. But first I said a simple prayer, "Dear Lord, you know  17  I earn my pennies, so please make sure that my hard earned money helps those who  18 need it. Amen." I went out with a fifty note and

4.根據(jù)常識,聽到狗叫,應(yīng)該是有人在大門外。故填somebody.

8.介詞辨析。根據(jù)句意,憑借/通過。我們通過在建筑工地打工賺我們的生活

9.從下文信息丈夫受傷說明前幾天我丈夫絆倒在樓梯上。故填husband

10.carry a heavy load背負(fù)沉重的負(fù)荷,carry 一般是指背,扛,運載比較重的東西,故符合題意。

11.上文提到“丈夫絆倒在樓梯上”,下文提到“發(fā)高燒躺在家里”,說明丈夫受傷嚴(yán)重。

12.上文提到“他們在建筑工地打工”,因為丈夫受傷嚴(yán)重。,所以不能上班。

13.作者叫老婦人在大門口那等著,然后自己走進房子(去拿錢)

14.對于老婦人的處境,我真的覺得很糟糕。A解決方法B情況,處境C行動D職位,位置,狀況。在困難/危險的處境,多用situation

15.從but一詞可以看出作者心存疑慮:她跟我講的是事實還是來騙我的錢。

16.從下文 went out with a fifty note說明作者最后還是決定幫助她。

17.句意,“主啊,你知道我是怎樣掙錢的”,言外之意,我掙錢也不容易啊!

18.因為掙錢不易,所以希望辛苦掙來的錢能幫助到真正需要幫助的人。

19.我拿著紙幣遞給老婦人。Hand傳遞,給remind 提醒,使想起,order命令,訂購

20.老婦人拉著我的手,說了一些感激不盡的話語,因此作者很感動。

考點:記敘文
