Question

Dear Disney,

Last weekend, the four members of my family spent an enjoyable holiday at the Magic Kingdom - Disneyland. And one event made our visit seem truly magical.

We got to the front of the line at Space Mountain, only to find out that our little daughter Gloria couldn't take her ice-cream on the ride. We were so excited that we all forgot ice-cream was not allowed on the ride.

Gloria broke into tears and we all had no idea what to do. Then Murphy, one of the staff(員工) members, came over. She bent down and told Gloria that she would hold the ice-cream for her and give it to her when she finished the ride. Gloria said, "Promise?" Then she gave Murphy her ice-cream, and she completely enjoyed the ride.

Sure enough, as we walked out the exit, there was Gloria's new friend with "her" ice-cream. Now you and I both know what happened, because we know that an ice-cream won't last twenty minutes on a summer afternoon in Florida. Murphy knew what time we would get off the ride; she went to the nearest shop and bought a brand-new ice-cream thirty seconds before we walked out the exit. Gloria said, "Thank you," but I'm sure she thought it was the same ice-cream.

We know that someone tried hard to make our visit special. Thanks so much for going above and beyond! 

Your fan,                                                                Carmen Rivera

試題分析：這篇短文是去迪斯尼樂園游玩的游客寫的一封感謝信。Carmen Rivera 一家在迪斯尼游玩時，并不知道不能拿著冰淇淋去玩太空飛車，這時迪斯尼的一名工作人員主動要幫助他們。Carmen Rivera知道在夏天冰淇淋肯定很快就會化了，是那名工作人員重新買了一個新的冰淇淋。Carmen Rivera對此表示感謝。

1.細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文中We got to the front of the line at Space Mountain, only to find out that our little daughter Gloria couldn't take her ice-cream on the ride可知，不能拿著冰淇淋去玩太空飛車，所以他們的小女兒哭了。故選C。

2.細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文中as we walked out the exit, there was Gloria's new friend with "her" ice-cream 當(dāng)我們走出出口，Gloria的新朋友拿著冰淇淋在等著她。這里的新朋友指的就是Murphy，迪斯尼的工作人員。故選B。

3.細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文中Murphy knew what time we would get off the ride; she went to the nearest shop and bought a brand-new ice-cream thirty seconds before we walked out the exit可知在夏天，冰淇淋很快就會化了，是Murphy又重新買了一個，在出口處等著我們。故選D。

4.詞意猜測題。因為本文就是告訴了我們作者一家在迪斯尼樂園受到了Murphy的幫助，所以這里的someone 指的就是Murphy。故選A。

5.主旨大意題。這篇短文主要說的就是Carmen Rivera因為在迪斯尼樂園受到幫助而寫的一封感謝信，所以答案為C。
