【小题11】上文提到“丈夫绊倒在楼梯上”，下文提到“发高烧躺在家里”，说明丈夫受伤严重。
【小题12】上文提到“他们在建筑工地打工”，因为丈夫受伤严重。，所以不能上班。
【小题13】作者叫老妇人在大门口那等着，然后自己走进房子（去拿钱）
【小题14】对于老妇人的处境，我真的觉得很糟糕。A解决方法B情况，处境C行动D职位，位置，状况。在困难/危险的处境，多用situation
【小题15】从but一词可以看出作者心存疑虑：她跟我讲的是事实还是来骗我的钱。
【小题16】从下文 went out with a fifty note说明作者最后还是决定帮助她。
【小题17】句意，“主啊，你知道我是怎样挣钱的”，言外之意，我挣钱也不容易啊!
【小题18】因为挣钱不易，所以希望辛苦挣来的钱能帮助到真正需要帮助的人。
【小题19】我拿着纸币递给老妇人。Hand传递，给remind 提醒，使想起，order命令，订购
【小题20】老妇人拉着我的手，说了一些感激不尽的话语，因此作者很感动。
