Last weekend, my kids along with few other kids from the neighborhood volunteered to help me wash my car. My 10-year-old daughter came up with the idea of 36 other people’s cars as well. It was pretty 37 outside and I had no plans to 38 being in the bright sun. She 39 wanted to give lemonade（柠檬汽水）to passers-by for free. I had seen little kids 40 and sell fresh lemonade for a small cost but not free. Although I felt 41 , I decided to help her.
42 she asked me, “What if we 43 this a smile car wash?” I couldn’t hold back my tears and 44 her and the other kids to go outside the house and e up with 45 ideas. While I kept myself busy in drying the car, the gang walked up to me with a（n） 46 with beautiful images of smiles. They had “Free Car Wash” written on it and the 47 of their exercise was “smile”. It was pretty neat to see a team of kids ranging 5-11 years with the 48 to do something for others.
All that seemed 49 and came right from their heart. Nothing seemed to 50 to them: their playtime, the heat outside—they just wanted to 51 others and do something nice in the munity!
I helped them make some fresh lemonade and brought out some additional 52 to help clean cars. Passers-by were 53 and one even shouted back to them saying “God Bless You, my kids…” One of them even tried giving them 5 dollars, which they refused. A pretty heartwarming 54 !
I feel blessed by being 55 by such wonderful and loving souls.

(答案→)B
解析：文章讲述的是作者的女儿和一帮孩子通过自己的努力帮助别人的故事
【小题1】考查上下文的联系。根据上一局的后半部分以及as well可知，作者的女儿想出了清洗别人的车的主意
【小题2】考查上下文的联系。根据本句后面的in the bright sun 可知，外面非常炎热
【小题3】查生活常识。由于天气炎热，作者不打算继续在阳光下劳动。Suggest“建议”；avoid“避免”；practise“练习”
【小题4】考查上下文的联系。上文提到作者的女儿想给别人洗车，此处又提到她想免费给路人提供柠檬汽水，由此可以判断应选答案B
【小题5】考查上下文的联系。根据本句后半部分内容可知，作者见到过一些孩子靠卖柠檬汽水赚取少量费用，故答案应选B
【小题6】考查上下文的联系。上文提到作者见到过一些孩子想方设法地赚取收入，可是自己 的女儿却打算免费地帮助别人，所以作者没有想到自己的女儿会有这样的想法，感到困惑不解
【小题7】考查副词在具体语境中的解析。根据上下文内容可知，then“那时”是最佳答案。Finally“最后”；simply“仅仅”；luckily“幸运地”均不符合语金境
【小题8】考查动词在具体语境中的辨析。她想让这一切给别人带去微笑。Show“展示”；leave“留下”；order“订购”，均不符合语境
【小题9】考查语境理解。根据本句的前半句内容可知作者很感动，由此推断答案应选D。challenge“挑战”；expect“期望”；invite“邀请”，均不符合语境
【小题10】考查上下文的联系。根据句中“e up with”可知，作者想让孩子们在屋内想出有创造性的主意
【小题11】考查上下文的联系。根据上文提到“他们是想给别人清洗车辆并免费提供柠檬汽水”以及下一句中“They had ‘Free Car Wash’ written on it”可知
【小题12】考查名词在具体语境中的辨析。他们行动的主题是“微笑”。故答案选D。其他三项均不符合题意
【小题13】考查动词在具体语境中的辨析。这群孩子把帮助别人看做是他们的责任。Need“需要”；imagination“想象”;skill“技巧”，均不符合语境
【小题14】考查上下文的联系。本句后半句提到这是发自他们内心的想法，由此可知，一切看起来应该是十分自然的
【小题15】考查固定搭配。由于他们是真心真意地想帮助别人，即使是牺牲了玩耍时间，而且外面非常炎热，对他们来说也没有关系。object to“反对”；belong to“属于”；refer to “指，提到”
【小题16】考查上下文的联系。上文提到他们的愿望是给别人带去快乐，因此他们只是想帮帮别人，为社区做点贡献
【小题17】考查上下文的联系。根据本句后面的“to help clean cars”可知，作者又拿出一些碎布用来擦车
【小题18】考查生活常识。过路人简直不敢相信会有如此善良的孩子，所以惊奇不已
