One day as he walked down the street, a young lady was walking in front of him. Suddenly one of her bags dropped from her arms. As she stopped   3 , she dropped other bags. He came to help her.“Thank you, dear! You are a nice little boy!”She said kindly, smiling.

解析

试题分析：
小题1:词义辨析。A.形容词，死的B.die的现在分词，形容词临终的C.die死亡的过去式及过去分词；D.动词，死亡。根据下文He was alone，可知他的父母去世了，结合前面时间状语从句内容可知本句描述的是过去发生的动作，故选C。
小题2:.考查短语：laugh at 嘲笑。
小题3:.考查stop用法。Stop后接动名词表示停下正在做的动作，接不定式表示停下来去做某个动作。动词加介词组成的短语,后面如果接代词做宾语,那么代词应该放到中间.从上下文可知这位女士是停下来去捡他的包，故选D。
小题4:结合上文No one showed kindness (友善) to him.没有人对他友善，可知这是他第一次听到这样的客气话，故选A。序数词作定语修饰kind words，因为是特指故需加定冠词。
小题5:结合上下文可知本句意思为，他看着她直到她走远了。这位女士走远是一个持续的过程，故不能一直看下去，所以不能选CD，选B则不符合逻辑，故选A。
小题6:词义辨析。Sound；声音noise   噪音；.吵闹的；voice嗓音。结合下文he said to his dog,可知选D，然后他低声对他的狗说。
小题7:考查物主代词。联系上下文此处的代词指的是这只狗，故选D，它的。
小题8:.考查短语nothing but只有；只不过。句意：他看到的只不过是一个脏兮兮的男孩。故选B。
小题9:.结合上文他的醒悟和下文He saw a clean nice boy.可知他仔细洗了脸。故选A，副词位于动词后修饰动词。
小题10:.考查感叹句。What+a(an)+（形容词）+单数可数名词+主语+谓语！或是：What+名词词组+主语+谓语！ What+(形容词）+可数名词复数或不可数名词+主语+谓语！
由How引导的感叹句。 how用来修饰形容词、副词或动词。其结构是：How+形容词（副词）+主语+谓语！根据下文结构可知选A。选C，则it后缺少谓语。It seems后一般接that从句。
点评：本文中一个成功的商人讲讲述了一个发生在他的童年，改变他一生的故事。文章一个不受人欢迎的小男孩在一位女士的善意表扬下幡然醒悟，立志重新做人，最后终于成为了现在成功的商人。短文最后通过这位商人之口号召人们与人为善，互相友爱。阅读中注意小男孩前后的人生转变，认真体会这位商人最后那几句话的含义。答题中注意联系上下文，相同选项注意多分析比较。本题出现习惯短语不少，平时应加强积累。多记一条短语，可能就少一分的思考时间，如：nothing but。
