25.D

26.B

27.A这是一篇记叙文。本文主要介绍作者的父亲是一名里约种植园的工头。作者的第一份工作是在甘蔗地里赶牛耕地。虽然工作乏味单调，但是他学会了坚持、尊重人、待人诚恳和有自尊心。作者因在七岁时去了高尔夫球场做球童，而萌发了当成功的高尔夫球手的梦想。作者通过不断的努力，最终成功了，所以他在握住的是高尔夫球杆而不是赶牛的扫帚柄。【24题详解】细节理解题。由文中第一段的第二句Myfirstjobwastodrivetheoxenthatploughedthecanefields.可知，作者的第一份工作是在甘蔗地里赶牛耕地，故C选项正确。【25题详解】词义猜测题。作者的工作是跟在耕牛后用扫帚把赶牛。所以应该不难，也是很普通的工作，但是持续时间长而且中途不能休息即使吃饭也不可以。因此可知这份工作很枯燥。A.difficult困难的；B.unusual不同寻常的；C.interesting有趣的；D.boring枯燥的。故D选项正确。【26题详解】细节理解题。由第二段中“Ialsolearnedaboutbeingrespectfulandfaithfultothepeopleyouworkfor.”可知作者从他的第一份工作学会了对他的雇主要恭敬和诚实守信。B选项正确。【27题详解】推理判断题。根据文中倒数第二段的SomenightsIwouldlieinbedanddreamtofmakingthousandsofdollarsbyplayinggolfandbeingabletobuyabicycle.可知，作者很想成为一名成功的高尔夫球者。
