四、阅读理解
It happened two years ago. It was Mother's Day morning. I was doing my shopping at our local supermarket with my five-year-old son, Tenyson. As we were leaving, we found that only minutes earlier an elderly woman had fallen over at the entrance and had hit her head on the ground. Her husband(丈夫)was with her, but there was blood everywhere and the woman was embarrassed(尴尬的)and clearly scared. Walking towards the scene, Tenyson became very sad about what had happened to the couple. He said to me, "Mum, it's not much fun falling over in front of everyone."
At the front of the supermarket, a charity group had set up a stand selling fish and chips and flowers to raise money. Tenyson suggested that we should buy the lady a flower. "It will make her feel better," he said. I was amazed that he'd come up with such a sweet idea. So we went over to the flower seller and asked her if we could buy a flower for the lady to cheer her up. "Just take it," she replied. "I can't take your money for such a wonderful act."
As we held the flower and walked to the woman, doctors arrived and started treating the injured(受伤的)woman. After we walked closer, my son became intimidated by all the blood and medical tools. He just hid behind me.
Instead, I gave the flower to the woman's husband and told him, "My son was very sad for your wife and wanted to give her this flower to make her feel better."
Hearing this, the old man started crying and said, "Thank you so much. You have a wonderful son. Happy Mother's Day to you."
The man bent down and gave his wife the flower, telling her who it was from. Though badly hurt and shaken, the old lady looked up at Tenyson with love in her eyes and gave him a little smile.

【分析】
1. 第1题：这是细节判断题，需逐一核对选项与原文内容。先定位各选项对应段落：A项对应第一段，老妇人是自行摔倒，并非被Tenyson撞倒；B项对应最后两段，老妇人收到花后露出微笑，并未拒绝；C项对应第三、四段，Tenyson因害怕躲在妈妈身后，是妈妈将花交给老妇人的丈夫；D项对应第二段，妈妈认可Tenyson买花的想法并一同去买，因此D正确。
2. 第2题：这是词义猜测题，要结合上下文语境判断。根据画线词后“He just hid behind me”以及前文的“all the blood and medical tools”，可推断Tenyson看到这些场景感到害怕，故“intimidated”意为“scared”。
3. 第3题：这是事件排序题，需梳理原文事件先后顺序：首先是“我和儿子在超市购物”（e），接着老妇人在入口摔倒（c），然后Tenyson为夫妇俩感到难过（d），之后我们买花想安慰老妇人（b），最后医生赶来治疗老妇人（a），因此正确顺序为e-c-d-b-a。
4. 第4题：这是主旨大意题，需抓住文章核心。文章围绕Tenyson提议买的一朵花展开，这朵花给受伤的老妇人带来了安慰，传递了善意的力量。其他选项仅涉及故事的时间、起因或片面内容，无法概括主旨，故最佳标题为“The Power of the Flower”。
【解析】
1. 第1题：
A项：由第一段“an elderly woman had fallen over at the entrance”可知老妇人是自己摔倒的，并非被Tenyson撞倒，A错误；
B项：由最后一段“the old lady looked up at Tenyson with love in her eyes and gave him a little smile”可知老妇人未拒绝花，B错误；
C项：由第三、四段“my son became intimidated by all the blood and medical tools. He just hid behind me. Instead, I gave the flower to the woman's husband”可知Tenyson未直接递花给老妇人，C错误；
D项：由第二段“I was amazed that he'd come up with such a sweet idea. So we went over to the flower seller...”可知妈妈支持Tenyson买花的想法，D正确。
2. 第2题：
根据画线词后文“He just hid behind me”及前文“all the blood and medical tools”，可推测Tenyson因这些场景感到害怕，故“intimidated”意为“scared（害怕的）”，选C。
3. 第3题：
原文事件顺序：
e：I was doing my shopping at our local supermarket with my five-year-old son（故事开端）；
c：an elderly woman had fallen over at the entrance（老妇人摔倒）；
d：Tenyson became very sad about what had happened to the couple（Tenyson感到难过）；
b：we should buy the lady a flower... So we went over to the flower seller...（买花）；
a：doctors arrived and started treating the injured woman（医生治疗）；
因此正确顺序为e-c-d-b-a，选C。
4. 第4题：
文章核心是Tenyson买的花给受伤老妇人带来安慰，传递了善意的力量。B选项仅为故事发生时间，C选项是起因，D选项偏离重点，故最佳标题为A选项“The Power of the Flower”。
