The war was the most peaceful period of my life. The window of my bedroom faced south-east. I always woke up with the first light and, with all the responsibilities of the previous day melted, felt myself rather like the sun, ready to shine and feel joy. Life never seemed so simple and clear and full of possibilities as then. I stuck my feet out under the sheets--I called them Mrs. Left and Mrs. Right--and invented dramatic situations for them in which they discussed the problems of the day. At least Mrs. Right did; she easily showed her feelings, but I didn’t have the same control of Mrs. Left, so she mostly contented herself with nodding agreement.
They discussed what Mother and I should do during the day, what Santa Claus should give a fellow for Christmas, and what steps should be taken to brighten the home. There was that little matter of the baby, for instance. Mother and I could never agree about that. Ours was the only house in the neighborhood without a new baby, and Mother said we couldn’t afford one till Father came back from the war because it cost seventeen and six. That showed how foolish she was. The Geneys up the road had a baby, and everyone knew they couldn’t afford seventeen and six. It was probably a cheap baby, and Mother wanted something really good, but I felt she was too hard to please. The Geneys’ baby would have done us fine. Having settled my plans for ’the day, I got up, put a chair under my window, and lifted the frame high enough to stick out my head. The window overlooked the front gardens of the homes behind ours, and beyond these it looked over a deep valley to the tall, red-brick house up the opposite hillside, which were all still shadow, while those on our side of the valley were all lit up, though with long storage shadows that made them seem unfamiliar, stiff and painted.
The boy can be best described as ________.
选项
A、naughty
B、foolish
C、innocent
D、ignorant
答案
C
解析
推理题。小男孩一心想要家里有个婴儿,妈妈推托他说,要等爸爸回来,因为婴儿要花费17.6英镑。小男孩信以为真,并且按照自己的逻辑推断出,妈妈很傻。小男孩不谙世事,不知道婴儿到底是怎么回事,但却还一心要想办法得到一个婴儿。这段描写表现出小男孩的天真无邪,所以选择C。
