"Oh, that's terrible! She'll miss her own house!" Sally said.
"Maybe, but we can see her on weekends," her mother answered. " We can bring her presents."
"Like ice cream Grandma loves strawberry ice cream!" Sally said.
The first time they visited Grandma, Sally wanted to cry. Grandma sat all by herself in the comer of the room.
Sally hugged Grandma. "Look," she said, "we brought you strawberry ice cream!" Grandma took it and began to eat without saying a word.
"She doesn't seem to know us," Sally was upset. "You have to give her time," her mother said. But the next time it was the same. Grandma ate the ice cream, but didn't say anything.
"Grandma, do you know who I am " Sally asked.
"You're the girl who brings me the ice cream," Grandma said.
"Yes, but I'm Sally, your granddaughter. Don't you remember me "

6.答案:C
解析:句意:—王太太,你对我的表妹有什么看法?—她很可爱。虽然她很年轻,但是她能帮助做家务。考查状语从句。once一旦;thought认为,想;but但是;although虽然,尽管。根据“she is very young”可知是让步状语从句,用连词“although”或“though”引导从句。“although”和“but”在句中不能同时使用。故选C。
