saturday, so mr. smith did not have to go to work. it had snowed heavily the night before, and mr. smiths son bobby had a new sledge (雪橇), which he had been very eager to try out for a long while. there was a good slope (斜坡) in a park not far away from the smiths house a slope which children often used for their sledges, so mr. smith agreed to take bobby there in the car. they put the sledge in and went off. when they reached the park, they found that there were already a lot of boys there, each boy with a sledge of his own. they were sliding down the slope at great speed, and then pulling their sledges up again for another go. mr. smith stood by, watching them with a smile. it was obvious that each and every one of them had much fun. after a few moments, mr. smith suddenly saw among the boys a kid who was small and poorly-dressed, and did not have a sledge. this boy had flattened out one old cardboard box, and was sliding down the slope on that. mr. smith felt very sorry for this poor boy, and determined to tell his son bobby to share his new sledge with the boy. but before he could catch bobby to speak to him, he was somewhat surprised and much more delighted to notice that several of the older boys in the park were already offering the poor boy their nice sledges. mr. smith watched them with greater interest and suddenly realized that the bigger boys were not doing this because they felt sorry for the poor boy, but because they enjoyed riding on his cardboard box more than on their own sledges. they were actually waiting eagerly and impatiently for a turn on the flattened cardboard box!31. what did bobby desire to do for a long time? a. to test and play with his new sledge. b. to make a new icy slope by himself.c. to skate with his father in the nearby

should be taught the value of sharing at an early age.b. the cardboard box is always a perfect gift for the bigger boys.c. simple and unusual things are sometimes popular among the kids.d. actually the bigger boys wanted to help the poor boy in some way.31.a 细节理解题。根据第一段“mr. smiths son bobby had a new sledge (雪橇), which he had been very eager to try out for a long while.”可知，bobby早就想试试他的新雪橇了，故选a。32.b 细节理解题。根据第三段“mr. smith suddenly saw among the boys a kid who was small and poorly-dressed, and did not have a sledge. this boy had flattened out one old cardboard box.”可知，史密斯先生注意到一个衣着破旧的小男孩，他因为没有雪橇而用一个压扁的纸箱子来滑雪，故选b。33.d 细节理解题。根据第四段“several of the older boys in the park were already offering the poor boy their nice sledges”可知，一些稍大的孩子正在争前恐后地把自己的雪橇让给那个小男孩，故选d。34.c 推理判断题。根据第四段“but because they enjoyed riding on his cardboard box more than on their own sledges. they were actually waiting eagerly and impatiently for a turn on the flattened cardboard box!”可知，孩子们把雪橇让给小男孩不是出于同情，而是因为他们更愿意用那个纸箱子来滑雪，他们迫不及待想用自己的雪橇换男孩的纸板箱，说明他们对男孩自制的“雪橇”很好奇，故选c。考点：故事类短文阅读b【河北省保定市高阳中学2016届高三上学期第一次月考】 china is a land of bicycles. at least it was back in 1992 when i traveled
