广东省广州市铁一中学2024-2025学年八年级上学期11月期中考试英语试题
I was playing at the front gate, trying to decide whether to walk down the street to play with Jenny, when I saw a poor man coming up the road.
"Hello, little girl, " he said, "is your mama at home?"
I nodded and opened the gate to let him get in the yard. He looked like all the homeless men who came to my home before. His messy hair hung below a shapeless hat, and his old shirt and trousers had been rained on and slept in. He smelled bad.
He walked to the door. When my mother appeared, he asked, "Lady, could you spare something to eat?"
"I think so. Please sit on the step. "
Later, my mother came back and handed him a sandwich made from homemade bread and generous pieces of boiled meat. She also gave him a bottle of milk. "I thank you, lady, " he said.
I played at the gate, watching the man wolf down the sandwich and empty the cup. After finishing the food, he stood up and walked back through the gate. "▲" he told me on the way out.
Jenny had said all the homeless men told each other who would feed them. "They never come to my house!" she had said proudly and happily.
"So why does Mama feed the poor man?" I wondered. I walked inside. "Jenny's mama says those men are too lazy to work. Why do we feed them?"
My mother smiled. "Sweetheart, we don't know why these men don't work, " she said, "but they were babies once. And their mamas loved them, just like I love you. " She put her hands on my shoulders and drew me close to her.
"For me, I fed them for their mothers, because if you were ever hungry and had nothing to eat, I would want others' mothers to feed you. "
I seemed to find out the answer to my question and understand that.
a. My mother communicated with the poor man
b. I understood my mother after talking to her.
c. I played at the gate and watched the poor man having food.
d. I opened the gate to let the poor man get in the yard.
e. The poor man stood up and walked back through the gate.
