12、light punishment Bharsh criticismCcomplete indifference Dgood beatings(一)【要点综述】 本文为记叙文。文中作者回忆了早年读书期间，暑假返校清除落叶的一段经历。1D细节理解题。作者一开始用了两个remember表明他对暑假返校要清除落叶一事记忆深刻。第二段提到在为学校清除落叶时没有别的工具，唯一的工具就是手，由此可推断“手和指尖都记得”是因为在大扫除中，作者的手作为唯一的清洁工具受了不少的罪。2B细节理解题。第一段最后一句提到假期过后学校会堆满落叶，第二段校长发布学生大扫除的命令，两者之间的因果关系显而易见，因此本题应选B项
13、。3C细节理解题。第二段最后一句，特别是其中的see，表明校长让大孩子们做大扫除的“监工”，负责带领其他孩子把学校打扫干净。这也可以从该段最后一句的“or youll have to answer for it(否则你们就要为此负责)”看出答案。4A推理判断题。根据第三段第四句中的“the coins changed hands at once.”可知“钱马上就会易主”，即到了大孩子们的口袋里。5A细节理解题。根据题干中的complaints可定位到最后一段开头两句。该段第二句表明校长对大孩子的惩罚很轻微，因此本题应选A项。阅读理解(共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分)阅读下列短文，从每题所给
