Today is the anniversary of that afternoon in April a year ago that I first saw the strange and appealing doll in the window of Abe SheftePs toy shop on Third Avenue near Fifteenth Street, just around the corner from my office, where the plate on the door reads: Dr.Samuel Amory.I remember just how it was that day: the first hint of spring floated across the East River, mixing with the soft-coal smoke from the factories and the street smells of the poor neighborhood.
As I turned the corner on my way to work and came to Sheftel’s, I was made once more aware of the poor collection of toys in the dusty window, and I remembered the approaching birthday of a small niece of mine in Cleveland, to whom I was in the habit of sending modest gifts.Therefore, I stopped and examined the window to see if there might be anything suitable, and looked at the confusing collection of unappealing objects-a red toy fire engine, some lead soldiers, cheap baseballs, bottles of ink, pens, yellowed envelopes, and advertisements for soft drinks.And thus it was that my eyes eventually came to rest upon the doll stored away in one corner, a doll with the strangest, most charming expression on her face.I could not wholly make her out, due to the shadows and the film of dust through which I was looking, but I was aware that a tremendous impression had been made upon me as though I had run into a person, as one does sometimes with a stranger, with whose personality one is deeply impressed. [br] Why does the author mention his niece?
选项
A、She likes dolls.
B、The doll looks like her.
C、She lives near Sheftel’s.
D、He was looking for a gift for her.
答案
D
解析
本题可参照文章的第2段。开始时作者说在上班的路上路过那家玩具店,而且当时碰巧想起每年要给自己的侄女买件生日礼物,而且他知道侄女喜欢不太贵的玩具,因此才停下来看看有没有合适的。这里提到侄女应该是作者为自己下一步的举动做出的一个铺垫。因此D项为正确答案。
