Joan worked in a hospital as a nurse. One evening there was a big dance at the hospital. Most of the doctors and nurses would be there, but of course somebody had to be left to look after the sick children, and Joan was not of the lucky ones. She liked dancing very much, so when she had to start work that evening while her friends were getting ready to go to the dance, she felt very sorry for herself
She went to each sick child one after another and said good-night, until she came to we little boy, Dicky. He was eleven years old, but he was already able to talk like an adult(成年人). Poor Dicky had a very serious(严重的) illness, and now he was hardly (几乎不) able to move any part of his body except his hands. Joan knew he would never get any better, but he was always happy and always thinking about other people instead of about himself.
Dicky knew that Joan loved dancing, so now when she came to say good-night to him, he greeted(问候) her with the words, "I’m very sorry that you have to miss the dance because of us. But we are going to have a party for you. If you look in my drawer, you will find a piece of cake. I saved(省下) it from my supper today, so it is quite fresh. And there is also a dollar there. You can buy something to drink with that. And I’d get up and dance with you myself if I was able to," he added(补充说) .
Suddenly the hospital dance seemed very far away and not at all important to Joan.
小题1:Dicky was lovely because _______.
A.he was a nice, kind boy of eleven
B.he was always thinking about others more than himself
C.he saved a piece of cake for his nurse
D.he could foresee(预知) that he would never get any better
小题2:Which of the following is NOT true?
A.Dicky knew why Joan was unhappy. B.Dicky heard about the dance.
C.Dicky showed sympathy(同情) for Joan. D.Dicky got up to greet Joan when she came.
小题3:At that party arranged(安排) for Joan, Dicky probably _______.
A.got up and danced with her
B.gave Joan a piece of cake he had saved
C.brought her something to drink
D.lost the dollar which he was going to give Joan

小题1:B
小题2:D
小题3:B

小题1:本文第二段最后一句为he was always happy and always thinking about other people instead of about himself.所表示的含义为Dicky是可爱的原因是由于他总是考虑别人,而不是他自己,故本题选B。
小题2:本文第三段最后一句为I’d get up and dance with you myself if I was able to所表示的含义为是跳舞而不是问候,故D选项是错误的,故本题选D。
小题3:本文第三段有两句为we are going to have a party for you. If you look in my drawer, you will find a piece of cake. I saved(省下) it from my supper,所表示的含义Dicky在Joan的聚会上可能给她一块节省下来的蛋糕,故本题选 B。
