My husband and children think they are very lucky that they are living and that it’s Christmas again. They can’t see that we live on a dirty street in a dirty house among people who aren’t very good. But Johnny and children can’t see this. What a pity it is that our neighbors have to make happiness out of all this dirt. I decide that my children must get out of this. The money that we’ve saved isn’t nearly enough.
    The McGaritys have money but they are so proud. They look down upon the poor. The McGarity girl just yesterday stood out there in the street eating from a bag of candy while a ring of hungry children watched her. I saw those children looking at her and crying in their hearts; and when she couldn’t eat any more she threw the rest down the sewer. Why, is it only because they have money? There is more to happiness than money in the world, isn’t there?
    Miss Jackson who teaches at the Settlement House isn’t rich, but she knows things. She understands people. Her eyes look straight into yours when she talks with you. She can read your mind. I’d like to see the children be like Miss Jackson when they grow up.

30. What can we learn about the speaker from the passage?
31. What do you think of McGarity girl?
32. What does the speaker try to tell us?

选项 A、She is selfish and cruel.
B、She is kind and polite.
C、She is proud and helpful.
D、She is lonely and unhappy.

答案 A

解析 短文中举了一个反例,即McGarity家很有钱,但他们家的女儿在吃糖的时候不分给周围的小伙伴,而是把吃不了的糖果倒进下水道里,这说明她很自私和冷酷,故答案为[A]。
