24、如”，故选D项。3B他越看那个苹果，他就越感觉饿，他也就越想要那个苹果。此处与下文中的“how hungry he had become from his _15_，and how he really wanted that apple”呼应，故选B项。4Bexpand意为“扩大”；stretch意为“伸长(胳膊或腿)”；swing意为“摇摆”；pull意为“拉”。此处与下文中的“stretching his arms”呼应，故选B项。5D根据空格前的“tallest”和下文中的“as high as he could”可知，选D项。6B此处与下文中的“each jump”呼应，男孩儿想够到苹
25、果，但是他身高不够，于是他就上下地跳着去够苹果，故选B项。7D根据上文中的“as high as he could”可知，男孩儿在每次跳到最高处的时候伸长胳膊去摘苹果，故选D项。at the top of.意为“在的顶端”。8D根据上文中的“he was unable to touch it”和空格前的“Still”可知，男孩儿跳起来还是没有够到那个苹果。out of reach“够不到”。9B男孩儿并没有放弃，他想要是有个东西让他站在上面就好了。选B项。10A他的书包不能给他足够的高度，而且他也不想弄坏里面的东西。故选A项。11B他环视四周，希望能够找到一个旧盒子、一个石块。幸运的话，甚至是
26、一个梯子。根据下文中的“he hoped he might find an old box, a rock”可推知，男孩儿在四下里找这些东西，故选B项。12C参见上题解析。13C他尝试了他所想到的一切，但是没有看到任何其他的选择，故选C项。14A根据空格前的“he gave up”可知，男孩儿最后离开了，故选A项。15C起初想到为得到那个苹果而付出的努力让自己感觉饥饿时，他感到既生气又失望。故选C项，effort“努力”。16B他越这样想，他就越不开心，故选B项。17B然而，我们故事里的男孩是一个相当聪明的男孩儿，即使他不总是能够得到他想要的东西。此处表转折，故选B项。18C他很快就对自己说：“生气和失望也于事无补。我没有得到那个苹果，我也感到很难过。”故选C项，helpful“有帮助的，有用的”。19D为了得到那个苹果“我”没有更多可以做的了，这是不可改变的事实，但是“我”应该能够改变“我”的感觉，故选D项。20B根据空格前的“that is unchangeable”可知，有些东西不可改变。但是我可以改变我的感觉，故选B项。
