Question

【題目】A little boy came up to his mother in the kitchen one evening while she was cooking supper, and passed her a piece of paper that he had written something on. After his mom dried her hands on an apron (圍裙), she read what it was on the paper .

For cutting the grass: $5.00

For cleaning up my room this week: $1.00

For going to the supermarket for you: $1.00

For looking after my little brother while you went shopping: $1.00

For taking out the trash: $1.00

For getting a good report card: $5.00

For cleaning up the garden: $2.00

Total: $16.00

Well, his mother looked at him for a while, and then she picked up the pen, turned over the paper he’d written on, and this was what she wrote:

For the nine months I carried you while you were growing inside me, free.

For all the nights that I’ve sat up with you, fed you and sung songs for you, free.

For all the tears (淚水) that you’ve caused through the years, free.

For all the nights that were filled with worries, free.

For the toys, food, clothes and even cleaning your nose, free.

Son, when you add it up, the full cost of my love is free.

When the boy finished reading what his mother had written, there were tears in his eyes and he looked straight at his mother and said, “Mom, I sure do love you.” And then he took the pen and in great big letters he wrote: "PAID IN FULL".

試題分析：本文敘述了一個小男孩把自己所做的事列下來，并計算出應付的工錢，總共是16美元，交給他媽媽，認為他媽媽會給他錢。他媽媽沒有說什么，只是在之上寫出她為小男孩所做的事，所有的愛都是免費。小男孩看完他媽媽寫的內容，感動得流出了眼淚。

【1】根據Total: $16.00可知男孩走進廚房是來找他媽媽要錢的，故此處與文中意思相符，故為T。

【2】根據After his mom dried her hands on an apron (圍裙), she read what it was on the paper .可知他的媽媽在圍裙上擦干了手，然后讀了紙上的東西，并沒有馬上給他錢，故此處與文中意思不符，故為F。

【3】根據For looking after my little brother while you went shopping: $1.00可知當小男孩的媽媽去購物時，他來照顧他的弟弟，而不是妹妹。故此處與文中意思不符，故為F。

【4】根據Total: $16.00可知小男孩認為他的媽媽應付給他16美元，此處與文中意思相符，故為T。

【5】根據Son, when you add it up, the full cost of my love is free.可知小男孩的媽媽為他所做的一切是免費的，此處與文中意思相符，故為T。
