Elaine, Justin’s mom, had set down the house rules with self-confident assurance. Only the most obtuse person would have failed to understand:no tattoos, no body piercings and no co-ed sleepovers while living in the house of Elaine Tucker Brown. Still, the day Justin turned 18, he lied to his mother about where he was going and headed straight to the tattoo parlor, as if impervious to his mother’s wrath. He got a light blue heart, the size of an orange permanently etched on his arm. Above this work of art was the word"Blessed". No, Justin was not stupid, but he was obstinate. Elaine saw this as an act of sheer defiance. She was incensed, her anger exacerbated by the fact that Justin had breezed into the house, found her in the kitchen, taken off his shirt with a smile and said, "Got it!" "No, Justin. Let me tell what you’ve got, " Elaine said angrily. "You’ve got five minutes to go upstairs and pack a bag. I am taking you to Pop-Pop’s. " The ride to Pop-Pop’s house was chilly, to say the least. Elaine berated Justin for everything she could think of, which wasn’t much because he was a straight A senior with a full academic scholarship to his top college pick. He had a kind heart and started a foundation in the ninth grade, which donated used sporting equipment to underprivileged kids in South Africa. Elaine pulled up to her father’s door and ordered Justin out. Not 10 minutes later, her cell phone rang.
"Elaine, have you lost it? You are kicking a boy as good as him out the house for a tattoo-that says ’Blessed’, no less?"her father asked, incredulous. "You will miss him so much.
Don’t cut off your nose to spite your face , Elaine.
Come pick this young man up. "Elaine, having grown up obeying most of her parents’ demands, turned her car around and went back to pick up her son. Justin was surprisingly contrite. " Sorry for being so disrespectful , Mom, "he said earnestly. "I will try to follow house rules from now on. "
What title would best fit this passage?
选项
A、House Rules.
B、Visiting Pop-Pop.
C、Straight A’s.
D、Body Piercings.
答案
A
解析
哪个标题最适合概括本段大意?家规。文章自始至终谈论家规:贾斯廷的妈妈伊莱恩制定家规:不许纹身,不许在身上穿孔。住在伊莱恩·塔克·布朗家,不许同女同学一起过夜。贾斯廷违背了家规,在身上刺了花纹,激怒了他的母亲并受到母亲的惩罚。最后,他悔悟了,表示从那以后一定要遵守家规。B(看望波普·波普)、C(门门功课优秀)和D(在身上穿孔)均是文中细节,不适合作为文章的标题。
