59、cited D. NervousAfraidSatisfied 【解析】选A。推理判断题。根据第三、四段作者内心的想法,担心自己承认了过错会被要求赔偿打破的窗户、惹父亲生气和被老师惩罚可知,作者一开始内心很害怕,很担心;根据倒数第二段I couldnt believe it! I wasnt being punished and I was getting my own bird field guidethe very one that I had been saving up money to buy. (我简直不敢相信!我没有受到惩罚,我有了自己的观鸟指南就是我一直攒钱想买的那本。)可知作
