Daniel was always making excuses for forgetting to do things. His usual excuse was: “ I was too busy.” or “I didn’t have time.”
Daniel’s parents were worried about him. “ He shouldn’t go through life making excuses all the time.” his father said. “ No one will trust him to do anything. He won’t be able to keep a job. No sensible(明智的)girl will marry him.”
“I don’t know what we can do.” his mother said.
“I have an idea.” his father said. “If this doesn’t work, nothing will.”
The next day was Daniel’s birthday. He was really looking forward to getting exciting presents. He woke up, expecting his parents to wish him a happy birthday. But all day what they said was “Good morning, Daniel. Hurry, or you will be late for school.” There were no presents, not even a card. He was really disappointed.
“Never mind.” he thought. (3) “There’ll be a surprise for me after school.” But there wasn’t. Sadly he said to his parents at dinner, “Today’s my birthday.”
“Oh,” his father said. “So it is. I forgot.”
“So did I.” his mother said.
“How could you forget?” Daniel asked. “There must be a reason.”
“Well, yes.” his father said. “We have a really good excuse for forgetting your birthday, Daniel. We didn’t remember your birthday because we were too busy.”
Poor Daniel! He never had a silly excuse for not doing something again.

小题5:丹尼尔总是为忘记事情找借口。

试题分析:尼尔总是为忘记事情找借口。他通常的理由是:“我太忙了。”或“我没有时间。”
丹尼尔的父母很担心他。“他不应该是经常找借口的时候。”他爸爸说。“没有人会相信他会做什么。他不能保住一份工作。没有一个明智的女孩会嫁给他“我不知道我们能做些什么。”他的母亲说。“我有个主意。”他爸爸说。“如果这不起作用,什么都不会。”第二天是丹尼尔的生日。他很想得到礼物。他醒来的时候,希望他的父母祝他生日快乐。但是一整天,他们所说的都是“早上好,丹尼尔。快点,否则你上学要迟到了。”没有了,甚至不见一个卡片。他很失望。“没关系。”他认为。放学后会给我一个惊喜。但是没有。伤心的他说: “今天是我的生日。”“哦,”他爸爸说。“我忘了。”“我也是。”他妈妈说。“你怎么会忘了呢?”丹尼尔问。“必须有一个原因。”“嗯,是的。”他爸爸说。“我们有一个很好的借口,忘了你的生日,丹尼尔。我们不记得你的生日,因为我们太忙了。”可怜的丹尼尔!他再也没有犯同样的错误。
小题1:细节理解题。问题:最后丹尼尔得到了他的生日礼。在通读全文后知道,他并没有得到生日礼物。故判断为错。
小题2:细节理解题。问题:他认为放学后将会有什么?分析文章,There’ll be a surprise for me after school.句意:放学后将会有一个惊喜给我。故填a surprise.
小题3:细节理解题。问题:当丹尼尔没有收到礼物时,他的感觉?分析原文:Sadly he said to his parents at dinner, “Today’s my birthday.”句意:在吃饭时伤心的对他父母说:“今天是我的生日。”从中得知他的心情是伤心的。故填:He felt sad.
小题4:细节理解题。问题:从这个故事我们学到了什么?通读全文,发现我们做事要诚恳,要关爱家人待。故填:We should love our my parents./be honest.答案不唯一。(符合题意即可)。
小题5:细节理解题。always 意为:一直;make excuse意为:借口; forgett to do things.意思:忘记做事情。故填:丹尼尔总是为忘记事情找借口。

We spent a day in the country and picked a lot of flowers. Our car was      of flowers inside!       the way home we had to stop at traffic lights, and there my wife saw the bookshelf.
It stood outside a furniture(家具)shop. “Buy it,” she said at once. “We’ll carry it home on the roof-rack(车顶架). I’ve always wanted        like that.”
What could I do? Ten minutes         I was twenty dollars poorer, and the bookshelf was tied on to the roof-rack. It was tall and narrow, quite heavy       .
As it was        darker, I drove slowly. Other drivers seemed more polite than usual that evening. The police even stopped traffic to let        through. Carrying furniture was a good idea.
After a time my wife said, “There         a long line of cars behind. Why don’t they overtake(超车)?”
Just at that time a police car did overtake. The two police officers looked at us seriously when they went past.       then, with         kind smile they asked us to follow their car through the busy        . The police car stopped at our village church. One of the officers came to me.
“Right, sir,” he said. “Do you need any more help now?”
I didn’t quite understand. “Thanks, officer,” I said. “You’ve         very kind. I live just down the road.”
He was looking at our things: first at the flowers,         at the bookshelf. “Well, well,” he said and laughed. “It’s a bookshelf you’ve got there! We thought it was      else.”
My wife began to laugh. Suddenly I understood        the police drove here. I smiled at the officer. “Yes, it’s a bookshelf, but thanks again.” I drove home as fast as I could.”
