I jumped up and said, “Hi, Mm!” She smiled at me and said “Hi” back, but didn’t appear t suspect (怀疑) a thing. My heart began t slw as I tk a deep breath.
On Christmas mrning, my sister and I smiled, and gave award-winning perfrmances when we pened ur presents—again. “Headphnes!” I shuted. “Thanks, it’s just what I wanted.” After everything had been pened, my sister and I lked at each ther, and ur eyes met.

【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲的是出于好奇心，作者和姐姐在圣诞节前夕趁母亲不在时偷偷提前打开了圣诞礼物。可是，当圣诞节清晨打开礼物的一刻来临，作者却体会到一种失落感。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段的“She usually came hme abut an hur after we gt hme frm schl, which we thught was plenty f time t sneak a lk (偷看) at the gifts under the tree.(她通常在我们放学回家后一个小时左右回家，我们认为这段时间足够偷偷看一看树下的礼物了。)”和第二段的“My elder sister pened present after present while I was rdered t stand guard at the big windw in ur frnt rm. Finally, when my sister’s curisity was satisfied, we changed places.(姐姐一个接一个地拆开礼物，而我则奉命守在前房的大窗户旁。最后，当我妹妹的好奇心得到满足时，我们换了位置。)”可知，作者和姐姐在圣诞节前夕趁母亲不在时偷偷提前打开了圣诞礼物。故选C。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“I put the headphnes back in the bx but my hands were shaking. My heart beat faster as I tried t get the tape t stick.(我把耳机放回盒子里，但我的手在颤抖。当我试图把胶带粘住时，我的心跳加快了。)”可知，听到母亲马上要回来，作者双手发抖、心跳加快，由此可知，当作者的母亲来的时候，作者又紧张又害怕。故选D。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段““Cl! Mm and Dad gt me headphnes!”(“酷！爸爸妈妈给我买了耳机！”)”可知，作者提前知道了爸爸妈妈给自己买了耳机，再根据倒数第二段““Headphnes!” I shuted. “Thanks, it’s just what I wanted.” After everything had been pened, my sister and I lked at each ther, and ur eyes met. Our secret was safe, but smehw Christmas mrning didn’t feel the same.(“耳机！”我叫道。“谢谢，这正是我想要的。”一切都打开后，我和姐姐对视了一下，我们的目光相遇了。我们的秘密是安全的，但不知怎的，圣诞节的早晨感觉不一样了。)”可知，圣诞节清晨作者打开礼物后假装激动和尖叫，其实那份惊喜已经不存在了，所以圣诞节的早晨给了作者一种不同的感觉。故选C。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“My sister and I never pened ur Christmas presents early again. I dn’t knw if it was that pening ur gifts fr the secnd time just wasn’t as much fun as the first time, r if we came t clse t getting caught and didn’t want t think abut what ur mther wuld have dne t us.(我和姐姐再也没有提前打开圣诞礼物了。我不知道是因为第二次拆礼物没有第一次那么有趣，还是因为我们差点被抓住，不想去想妈妈会对我们做什么。)”可知，作者和姐姐从此以后再也没有提前打开过圣诞礼物，他分析可能的原因是第二次打开礼物不再有真正的惊喜和兴奋感。由此判断，他对自己之前提前打开礼物的做法是有点后悔的。故选B。
C

But when yu hld yur pencil the crrect way, writing is much easier.(试试这个——把你的铅笔放在顶端，试着写下你的名字。很难吗？但是，当你正确地拿着铅笔时，写作就容易多了)”说明了抓握方法不当会导致书写困难，但是正确的抓握会使得书写变简单；后文“Hld it in place with yur thumb, and yur index (食指) and middle fingers.(用拇指、食指和中指将其固定到位)”说明了抓握的正确姿势；G选项The best way t hld a pen r pencil is t let it rest next t the base f yur thumb.(拿铅笔最好的方法是把它放在大拇指的根部)承接上文说明了正确的抓握是什么样的，同时引起下文对于抓握的进一步论述，符合题意。故选G项。

【20题详解】
设空处位于小标题处，参考前文三个小标题可知，要用祈使句形式，所以设空处要选择一个能概括下文所有内容的祈使句；下文“Lts f games need yu t write r draw pictures. S even thugh it’s nt schlwrk, yu’re still using the skills yu need t cntrl yur pencil better.(很多游戏都需要你写字或画画。所以，即使这不是作业，你仍然在使用你需要的技能来更好地控制你的铅笔)”说明了在游戏中通过写和画可以练习控制铅笔的技能，A选项Play games(玩游戏)为祈使句且概括了下文的内容，符合题意。故选A项。
