Question

A boy walked along Carver Street, singing a sad song. He walked with his head down. Once he looked up and noticed the sign across the empty street, painted on the side of an old house. On the sign a big woman with yellow hair and a five-mile smile held out a big bottle. “Coca-Cola. Drink Coca-Cola.” the sign said.
“Boy!” The silence was cut by a sudden cry. He turned around quickly to see who had called.
An old woman was standing at her door.
“You boy! Come here this minute.”
Slowly the boy1onto the cold flat stones leading to the old woman's house. When he arrived at her house, she2out her hand and wrapped her3old fingers around his arm.
“Help me inside, boy,” she said. “Help me4to my bed. What's your name?”
“Joseph,” he said.
The old woman on the bed tried to5up, raising berselfon her elbow (肘) . Water6from her eyes and mouth. The sight of her made Joseph feel7.
“I'm8, Joseph. You can see that, can't you? I want you to write a will(遗嘱) for me. There's paper and pencil on the table there.”
Joseph looked down at the9, and then looked out of the window. He saw the sign again, “Coca-Cola. Drink Coca-Cola. I want my silver pin to10to my daughter."
Joseph bent his small body over the table and11the pencil slowly across the paper.
“There's my Bible.(圣经)”The old woman said. “That's for my daughter, too. I want a12Christian burial (基督葬礼) with lots of singing. Write that down, too. That's the last -13of a poor old woman.”
The boy labored over the paper. Again he looked out of the window.
“Here. Bring it here so I can14it.”
Joseph found the Bible, and,15the paper inside, laid it next to the bed.
“16me now, boy,” she sighed(叹气).“I'm tired.”
He ran out of the house.
A cold wind blew through the17window, but the old woman on the bed
18nothing. She was dead. The paper in the Bible moved back and forth in the wind.19on the paper were some childish letters, which20the words, “Coca-Cola. Drink Coca-Cola.”

本文是一篇幽默笑话，老妇人让一小男孩为她写遗嘱，但他不太会写字，结果小男孩把他看到的广告牌上的字抄在纸上作为遗嘱了。
1.根据后面的 a cold flat 来判断是“走”上冰冷的台阶。
2.从本句这两个动作来看是先伸出手，然后再用她那干枯的手指缠住他的胳膊。
3.因为年纪大了，又是快要死了的人，所以手是“干瘪无肉的”。
4.根据前面的 Help me inside 的动作，后面应该是把我扶“上”床，而不是扶回到床前。
5.根据下文让小孩写遗嘱，应该是想坐起来说遗嘱的内容，根据语境不能是站起来。
6.如果仅指眼泪可以选答案 A, 因为这儿既指眼泪又指口水，所以用 run 最合适。
7.从下文 I am dying 来看老太太病得很严重了，be ill 和 feel sick 是英语里的习惯用法。
8.根据上文的 I am dying 和下文“死在床上”可知让小孩写的是遗嘱 will，而不是信 letter。
9.上文和下文都提到了“纸”。
10.silver pin 本是属于老妇人的，现在因为她快要死了，所以留下遗嘱给她女儿，go 表示去向和归属，不选 belong(属于)。
11.从上文 Joseph bent his small body over the table 形容小孩拿铅笔写字，就好像在纸上“移动”(move)。
12.因为是葬礼，不可能是“快乐的或辉煌的”，而是“真正的”。
13.从上下文的语境可以得知，那是可怜的老太太最后的“愿望”，而不是“希望”。
14.根据常识，遗嘱写完了要“签字”。
15.根据老太太的交代，找到了(圣经)，把写有遗嘱的纸“放”在里面，而不是“藏”在里面。
16.根据后一句 I’m tired 来看，老太太想让小孩离开，让她自己留在那儿，leave sb (be) 意为“别管…，让….在那儿”。
17.从前面的 through 一词可知窗户是“开着的”。
18.从下文 She was dead 来判断，她没有知觉了。
19.从上文可知是纸上“写”的遗嘱，written 的逻辑主语是后面的 letters。
20.文章一开始就为文章的结尾埋下了伏笔，再根据文章中间叙述小孩拿着铅笔在纸上移动来看，小孩不太会写字，只是把广告牌上的字母抄了下来，所以就形成了 Coca-Cola. Drink Coke-Cola。
