Ⅱ.阅读理解
Picking tomatoes
For as long as I can remember，Grandma's plentiful tomato garden has been a sign of summer's end.Each September，just as the decreased heat of the sun suggests cooler days，Grandma requests my help in her tomato garden.She convinces me she cannot pick tomatoes without my youthful eyes and quick mind.She says we need to examine each tomato and agree on its readiness for picking.While Grandma's request for my help in the tomato garden is always the same，her desire for my help seems to increase each year.
Grandma has eyes for finding even the tomatoes hidden by undergrowth and other tomatoes.I，however，just turn circles looking for the ones I think Grandma will like.I spot what looks like a ripe tomato，head in its direction，and then get sidetracked by another that appears to be equally ripe.I usually end up watching Grandma and trying to stay out of her way，which seems the only way my eyes and mind are useful.
There we are，lost in the tomato vines(藤)．Grandma's eyes are always knowing，and they are no different in the vegetable garden.From afar she spots what looks like a ripe tomato.As she walks toward the garden，she evaluates the tomato for a second time，but from a different angle.I
already know it will end up in the basket with the pile of others Grandma has carefully chosen.However，Grandma acts as if she needs final look to be sure.She calls me to her side，kneels beside the vine while enjoying the warmth of the fading sunlight on her face，and grasps the tomato in her hand.She turns each round，red ball toward the sunlight before disconnecting it from the vine with a half­hearted smil e.
She then looks at me.I nod my head and smile.Grandma assumes I smile in agreement with her tomato selection.I know I smile，instead，at her.
1．Why does Grandma ask the author to go to the tomato garden with her?
A．He can help pick more tomatoes.
B．He can learn the hardship of labor.
C．She enjoys staying with him while working.
D．She tries to share the happiness of harvest with him.
答案与解析：C 本题从第一段可知奶奶要我和她一起摘西红柿。

理由是我的youthful eyes and quick mind.但从第二段又可知奶奶找西红柿比我快多了，因此可知奶奶的真正目的是为了和孙子在一起。

2．The second paragraph shows that the author ________.
A．is an inefficient tomato picker
B．really has youthful eyes and quick mind
C．has spent a lot of time gardening with Grandma
D．is a naughty child trying to be out of Grandma's sight
答案与解析：A 第二段我找奶奶可能会喜欢的西红柿，找到一个熟的，伸手去摘，却摘回另一个。

因此可知他很不善于干这个活。

3．In the last paragraph，the author smiles to Grandma because he ________.
A．realized her true intentions
B．felt very happy to pick potatoes for her
C．confirmed that her choice of tomato is great
D．appreciated her skill in finding ripe tomatoes
答案与解析：A 奶奶要求作者陪她摘西红柿，说不能确信西红柿是否已经成熟于是两人一起商量，摘的时候，很明显奶奶明明很在行，却仍然要征求作者的意见，作者明白了奶奶的真实意图(只为有机会与孙子呆在一起)就朝奶奶笑来回应奶奶。

4．What can we infer from the story?
A. The grandchild will become more skillful at gardening than Grandma.
B．Grandma will develop more patience in working with the grandchild.
C．The grandchild will gradually become more independent of Grandma.
D．Grandma's need for the grandchild's company will grow over time.
答案与解析：D 此题可用排除法孙子也没用心学习摘西红柿，排除A项奶奶只为孙子能陪在身边就行了，没提耐心的事，排除B项。

孙子现在也没依赖奶奶，因此没有涉及的事，排除C项。

文章第一段最后一句，“奶奶的要求(我陪她摘西红柿)越来越强烈”。

故选D项。
