Topping the class academically was certainly an advantage. Studying was a breeze for Nigel. The reward was certainly incomparable to the little effort that he had to put it. It began when he was selected to help the teachers in the computer laboratories.
The peak of his school career came not when he topped the school but when he was selected for the nationwide competition. Unlike everyone else, Nigel wanted to join the contest because he liked playing with the Lego sets and making something out of them. Nigel spent the next two months rebuilding his robot. It was during the time that Nigel found out about the prizes for the competition as well as another competitor, Alicia, from a neighboring school. His early intentions were forgotten. Getting the thousand-dollar prize was more important than anything else. Nigel decided to befriend Alicia. Unaware of his intentions, she told him all about the robot that she had been building for the competition. He even helped her to put the finishing branches to her robot. He was glad with the way things had progressed. His robot looked even better than Alicia’s and it was able to bounce a ball with its arm, something Alicia had failed to do.
On the day of the competition, he saw Alicia. Everything dawned on her the minute she saw him among the competitors. She stared at him, puzzled at first, then angry and finally a look of helplessness came over her.
The flashbulbs of the camera exploded in Nigel’s face. The robot had performed actions so unique and different that the specialists’ judgments were the same. Nigel was so pleased with himself that he did not even notice the girl standing a few feet away from him. Without her, he would never have won the competition.
Nigel’s original intention of joining the contest was to ______.
选项
A、be the top student of the school
B、bring great honor to his school
C、constructs a robot with the Lego sets
D、win the thousand-dollar prize
答案
C
解析
由第二段第二句“Unlike everyoneelse,Nigel wanted to join the contest because he likedplaying with the Lego sets…”理解得知答案选C项。而A、B、D三项文中没有提到,故排除。
