42、He could have fun in nature.CHe had many friends to play with.DHe used to explore the old dirt road.解析:B细节理解题。根据第一段第三句“The fields,hills and woodlands around my home were the perfect playground whose adventures were only limited by my imagination.”可知,在作者小时候,他家周围的田野、山丘和小树林都是理想的玩耍场所,在那里只有想不到的,没有玩儿不到的。因

45、I had never seen before.It was full of muddy tyre tracks and deep woods bordered it on both sides,but exploring it still seemed like a fine adventure.”可知,探索这条泥土路似乎是一个很好的探险经历;再根据第二段可知,作者同时又感到害怕。所以作者走在这条路上时,心里是矛盾的。因为作者想去探险,又感到害怕,所以C项说法片面;文章中没有提及作者害怕被父母责备,故排除D项。4What may be the best title for the passa
