Passage 43(2020 •四川省乐山市)
 
When I was fifteen years old, I became very interested in shopping. ___66___ I had many things that I no longer needed at home. I knew with the help of my father, I could make money. For months and months I enjoyed myself by selling things on my dad's bank account.
On July 18th, 2015, I made my own account and began to start my own business. Things were going great and then I realized that selling things around the house wasn't enough for me. ___67___ I went around to the yard sale and bought things at low prices and sold them at higher prices to make money.
Last October, I went to a yard sale that was a little bit different. A lady had many nice things to sell. ___68___ Through the communication, I knew she was jobless at the moment and needed money to feed her family. I thought I could do it better and more quickly for her. So I made up my mind to help her out. She looked at me for a while and then said yes. ___69___ When I gave her the money, she broke down into tears thankfully.
___70___ I know my skills could be used to help those in need and that even one small act of kindness could make a difference.
A. I bought all her things.
B. So I decided to increase my business by running a re-sale shop.
C. And I decided to stop my business.
D. I went up to her and had a conversation with her.
E. I have never felt so pleased to help someone in my life.
F. After being just a buyer for a while, I wanted to sell something.
G. After that I took away some of her things and over the next month I made $ 1,500 for her!
【文章大意】这是一篇记叙文,文章主要讲述作者一开始对购物感兴趣,后来想要卖东西;于是在爸爸的帮助下卖东西赚钱;接着自己开了账户开始自己经商,从卖房子的东西到经营转卖的商店,不断扩大自己的业务。一天,他在庭院售卖上碰到一位女士,拿走她的东西并帮她赚了1500美元。由此作者觉得自己的技能可以被用来帮助需要帮助的人,甚至一个小小的善行可能有很大的影响,感到很开心。
66.F【解析】句意:在成为购买者一段时间之后,我想要卖东西。
根据后文“I had many things that I no longer needed at home. I knew with the help of my father, I could make money. For months and months I enjoyed myself by selling things on my dad's bank account”可知此处讲述作者想要卖东西“sell something”。故选F。
67.B【解析】句意:因此我决定通过经营转卖的商店来增加我的业务。
根据“selling things around the house wasn't enough for me”卖家里的东西觉得不够,以及后文“bought things at low prices and sold them at higher prices to make money”低价购买再以更高的价卖出,可知此处表达作者想要通过转卖re-sale的方式来扩大业务。故选B。
68.D【解析】句意:我走向她并和她聊天。
根据“Through the communication”可知此处表达作者和那位女士聊天“had a conversation with her”。故选D。
69.G【解析】句意:之后我拿走了她的一些东西,在接下来的一个月里,我为她赚了1500美元!
根据后文“When I gave her the money, she broke down into tears thankfully”作者给女士钱,女士感激得流泪了,可知此处表达作者赚了钱“made $ 1,500 for her”。故选G。
70.E【解析】句意:一生中帮助别人我从没感到过如此高兴。
根据“I know my skills could be used to help those in need and that even one small act of kindness could make a difference”我知道我的技能可以用来帮助那些需要帮助的人,即使是一个小小的善举也能起到作用。可知此处表达作者因为帮助别人“help someone”很开心“felt so pleased”。故选E。
