"We don’t 8 miracles here, child. I’m sorry," the chemist said, smiling 9 at the little girl.
In the shop was a 10 customer. He stooped down and asked the little girl, "What kind of miracle does your brother 11 ?"

"How much do you have?" asked the man.

(B)
I know I should have told the headmaster at the time. That was my real 1 .
He had gone out of the study for some 2 , leaving me alone. In his absence I looked to see 3 was on his desk. In the 4 was a small piece of paper on which were written the 5 “English Writing Prize 1949. History Is a Serious of Biographies (人物传记)”.
A(n) 6 boy would have avoided looking at the title as soon as he saw the 7 . I did not. The subject of the English Writing Prize was kept a 8 until the start of the exam so I could not 9 reading it.
When the headmaster 10 , I was looking out of the window.
I should have told him what had 11 then. It would have been so 12 to say: “I’m sorry, but I 13 the title for the English Writing Prize on your desk. You’ll have to 14 it.”
The chance passed and I did not 15 it. I sat the exam the next day and I won. I didn’t 16 to cheat, but it was still cheating anyhow.
That was thirty-eight years 17 when I was fifteen. I have never told anyone about it before, 18 have I tried to explain to myself why not.
The obvious explanation is that I could not admit I had seen the title 19 admitting that I had been looking at the things on his desk. 20 there must have been more behind it. Whatever it was, it has become a good example of how a little mistake can trap (使陷入) you in a more serious moral corner (道德困境).

【答案解析】(A)
1. A看到儿子病重,家里又花光了钱,因此母亲伤心,选"眼含泪水的"符合逻辑。

3. D 从储蓄罐里把零花钱"倾倒"出来符合语境。
4. B make one’s way to... "向……走去"。
5. C 此处表示"目的"或"对象",故用介词for。
6. D 前后文都有提示,小孩用自己的零花钱去买"奇迹",符合小孩的性格特点。

11. B这位顾客不明白小女孩的弟弟需要什么样的奇迹,故有此问。
12. C后面有提示,前面也出现了小女孩的弟弟头中长了"坏"东西的信息,因此小女孩知道需要"手术"才能救弟弟的命。A项"医生"太笼统,B项"外科医生",概念太专业,超出了小女孩的认知水平。

17. D这位顾客要去"见见"小女孩的父母,以便进一步了解情况。

20. B用1美元11分钱买来奇迹,反映了小女孩的"信念",其他的不合题意。
