解析
本文是一篇记叙文。内容比较简单，贴近学生的生活实际。作者就第一次吃面条的经历，突发奇想，为了自娱写成文章。但为了应付老师，权充未完成的作业上交。结果却给全班同学带来了欢乐，作者自己也感到快乐。
36. A。memory意为“记忆”; thought意为“思想, 想法”; knowledge意为“知识, 学问”; experience意为“经验, 经历”。从全文来看，作者是记述了记忆中的一件事。因此此题答案选A。
37. A。此题是一个由关系副词when引导的定语从句，先行词是an evening。
38. B。serve意为“供饭菜”。在此处是指晚饭吃面条。cook后面可跟meal, dinner等词。
39. D。in those days意为“当时, 那时候”。
40. A。根据句中的and可知是并列句，再根据前面的Never，可知本题应该表示否定的词，但neither表示“两者都不”，与上文中的all of us不符，故答案为A。
41. B。根据上文中提到的Spaghetti was an exotic treat，可知“成年人中也没有一个人对吃面条在行。”
42. D。根据上文所讲，我们中没有人知道吃面条的方法，因此发生了可笑的“争论”。
43. D。此题为副词词义辨析。nearly意为“密切地”；naturally意为“自然地”；officially意为“正式地；官方地”；socially意为“在社交方面”。根据句意，他们争论的是关于“在社交方面体面的方法”。故答案为D。
44. C。从作者一伙人的可笑的争论，作者突发奇想。
45. B。put down意为“记下”，与前一分句的write意思一致。
46. D。与文章最后一段中的happiness相呼应。
47. C。上句说到，作者写文章是为了自乐，而不是为了完成老师的作业。因此，本句是说，至于老师，我将写别的内容。
48. A。作者笔锋一转，然而，写完此文时已是半夜，因此没有时间来写老师布置的作文了。
49. C。第二天一早，我只好交上了我的作品。
50. B。此题是考查过去分词作定语。graded 意为“评完分数的”。
51. A。loud意为“高声地, 大声地”。read out意为“把. . . 读出”。本句是说老师向全班同学读了作者的文章。
52. C。老师读的时候，先是有人笑了，接着全班同学都开怀大笑。
53. D。本文作者的写作目的是为了娱乐，但此处尽力部表现出来。与前文的enjoyment和for my own joy相应。
54. B。并列连词for在此表示原因。
55. D。本段前面两次出现laugh一词，因此空也用laugh前后呼应。
