【要点综述】本文为一篇夹叙夹议的文章，主要介绍了一天作者站在自家的窗户前观望时，看到一个老人通过自己的劳动赚取所得，由此受到启发，只要一个人身体健康且勤劳，他在任何年龄都不需要靠乞讨为生。

36. B由on holidays以及后文提到的我会充分利用这一睡觉的时间可知，在假期母亲应该是允许(allow)我睡懒觉。

force意为“强迫”；cause意为“引起”；forbid意为“禁止”。

37. C由前文“睡懒觉”以及本句“在这个特别的早上，我想早起些”，可知前后为转折关系，故选C项，however意为“然而”，符合语境。

otherwise意为“否则”；therefore意为“因此”；besides意为“而且，还有”。

38. A由下一段第一句“As I watched several people go by, get into their cars and drive off …”可知作者应该是观望下面的停车场。

39. D由最后一段作者得出的感悟可知，作者应该是了解了一些在生活中有用的(useful)东西。

40. A我往下看时，应该是注意到(notice)了一个老人……
41. B由后文提到自行车后有一篮子布条和瓶子，那么桶应该是挂在自行车的把手上。

handle意为“把手”，符合语境。

42. C由后文的“from one car to another”可知他应该是从一辆车移动到(move)另一辆车。

search意为“寻找”；leave意为“离开”；wander意为“徘徊，漫游”，一般指漫无目的地走动，不符合语境。

43. D由already以及a dozen or more cars可知此处指他已经完成了(finish)很多辆车的清洗工作。

44. A当我看着他工作时，几种想法在脑海里交替出现(cross)。

slip意为“滑”；disturb意为“打扰”；inspire意为“激励”。

45. C由前一句中的“He wasn’t well­dressed.”可知，他穿着简单。

46. D由本句中的the bicycle可知此处应该是现在的骑车人(cyclist)不想被看到骑他那种自行车。

47. B此句为上一句的转折句，再结合后一句“… working hard at his small business … stopping to chat now and then …”可推知他对自己的生活是感到满意的(content)。

48. A由后文的语境“他时不时停下来和附近去市场的老人交谈”可知，他应该是朝路人招手(wave)。

49. C表示“和某人交谈”用chat … with。

50. D由后文“… then standing back to admire it … standing back to see what they looked like afte r the scrub.”可知他擦完后，还会往后站，看车子擦过后的样子，可推出他应该是对自己做的工作有一丝自豪。

51. A由第三段的“… washing and cleaning about a dozen or more cars.”可知此处应该说擦洗(clean)挡风玻璃。

52. C由前一句“then standing back to admire it”可知此处指他再次往后站欣赏车子。

53. A由后一句“At no age need one have to beg for a …”可知这是一条教训(lesson)。

54. B乞讨是为了求生(living)。

55. D由后一句“Young as I am …”可知相比之下，作者感到羞愧。
