【要点综述】常言说“勿以善小而不为，勿以恶小而为之”。本文是一篇记叙文。文章介绍了Oscar收到了一个包裹，包裹里面是一把雨伞，看到雨伞，Oscar回忆起了20多年前，当时他还是个16岁的少年时，在听完音乐会后，发现了一把Katie夫人遗忘的雨伞，他不辞辛苦地去她家归还雨伞的经历。而在20多年后，Katie夫人又把这把雨伞通过包裹的形式赠送给了Oscar，以感谢他当年的善举。

21. B 从上下文知，这个包裹很重要，所以是用褐色纸张小心(carefully)包裹起来的一个长的盒子，strictly表示“严格地”；roughly表示“粗略地”；casually表示“随意地”；都与语意不符合。

22. A 从上下文知道，Oscar打开了这个盒子，发现里面是一把雨伞，所以此处用open 表示“打开……”，其他都不符合语意。

23. D 从语境知，虽然(Although)Oscar已经有快20多年没再见过这把雨伞，但是他马上(immediately)就认出了它，此处根据上下句可知，语意表示“转折”，所以用Although，其他都不符合语境。

24. C 参见上题解析。clearly表示“清晰地”；fully表示“完全地”；suddenly表示“突然地”，根据句意选C项。

25. B 从下文知，这把雨伞对于老妇人而言是非常珍贵的，所以应该是“不同寻常的”，故用unusual；average表示“平均的”；plain表示“平淡的，平凡的”；typical表示“典型的”；都不符合语境。

26. A 从上文知，此伞不同寻常，同时从下文知，这伞非常珍贵，由此Oscar必定是对这伞的“美丽之处”印象深刻，第二段也提到伞的美丽，所以用beauty。shape表示“形状”；origin表示“起源”；history表示“历史”；都不符合语意，故选A项。

27. D 上文提到“he noticed an umbrella on an empty seat”，由此推断知Oscar 要找到的是该伞的主人，所以选owner。designer表示“设计师”；seller表示“销售商”；user表示“使用者”；都不符合语境。

28. A 从下文知，Oscar说服了剧院经理去查先前的售票记录，如他所料，有一个名字对上了，她是Katie女士。这里convince表示“说服”。force表示“强迫”；encourage 表示“鼓励”；advise表示“建议”；都与语境不符，根据句意选A项。
