One day after school I rode my bike to the Agins, which, I learned years later, was known for its high-end fashions and style．I introduced myself to Sylvia Agins, telling her I was looking for a Mather's Day present．
"Do you think she'd like a purse?" she askeD．I told her．I thought she might．
She took out an Italian handbag made of leather． She asked me what I thought, and I told her that my mom would like it．
"How much money do you have?" she asked．
"Twelve bucks," I said．
“You’re in luck,” she told me． "It's only $11． You have a dollar left over for the card．" She gift-wrapped  the purse and thanked me for my business, and I rode off home with the package under my arm.
When my mother opened the gift the next Sunday morning, she asked in an accusing tone, “Where did you get this?"
"I bought it at the Agins． It cost me $11．" I said．
My mother was shocked into silence．
It wasn't until many years later, when I learned that the purse was worth several hundred dollars, that I appreciated just how wonderful Sylvia Agins had been to me． I always felt bad that I never had a chance to properly thank her．
"You know, my son, what really amazes me to this day," my mother saiD．"Letting you have the purse for just a few dollars was unbelievable enough． But the fact that she let you leave the store with a dollar for the card was a touch of kindness that I'll never forget． "

試題分析：本文是一篇記敘文。文章講述了我在母親節(jié)給母親買了一件禮物。這件禮物讓母親很震驚，結(jié)果我僅用$11買了禮物。這令母親也很感動。
小題1:B考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)文章第一段中的I could tell my mother was dispiriteD．I decided to cheer her up by buying her a special Mother's Day gift可知，我知道母親情緒低沉。我決定給他買個母親節(jié)禮物讓她高興。故選B。
小題2:D考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)文章中的It wasn't until many years later, when I learned that the purse was worth several hundred dollars, that I appreciated just how wonderful Sylvia Agins had been to me．可知，我僅用$11買了價值幾百美元的包。故選D。
小題3:B考查推理判斷。根據(jù)文章最后一段中的Letting you have the purse for just a few dollars was unbelievable enough． But the fact that she let you leave the store with a dollar for the card was a touch of kindness that I'll never forget．可知，讓你用$11擁有幾百美元的東西就夠不可思議了，可她又讓你帶著一美元卡離開，這很令人感到。我永遠(yuǎn)不會忘記。故選B。
小題4:C考查文章的標(biāo)題。根據(jù)文章的整體內(nèi)容可知，文章主要講述了為了使母親高興，我給母親買母親節(jié)禮物的故事，文章突出了難忘的禮物。所以，一件無價的母親節(jié)禮物是最好的標(biāo)題。
