1. 小和住在组屋的三楼，楼下住着一位独居的刘奶奶。刘奶奶的腿受过伤，现在走路要拄着拐杖，行动不太（1）。小和每天上学前，都会帮刘奶奶把垃圾拿到楼下的回收站。刘奶奶非常（2），常常拿自己种的番石榴给小和吃。有一天，刘奶奶不小心在巴刹跌倒，小和刚好经过，立刻（3）过去扶她起来，还陪她一起回家。小和的妈妈知道后，也（4）小和做得对，还夸他是个负责任的孩子。刘奶奶握着小和的手，一直说他是个（5）的好孩子。 根据短文，第（1）空应填：

   • ・匆忙
   • ✓ 方便
   • ・及时
   • ・准时

   Why: The answer is "方便" (convenient). The passage says Grandma Liu's leg was injured and she now walks with a cane, so her movement is not very convenient. "及时" (timely), "匆忙" (hurried), and "准时" (punctual) don't make sense in "movement not very ___"; only "方便" matches the detail about the cane.

2. 今天是国庆日，小乐和妈妈到熟食中心吃早餐。旁边桌的一位老奶奶站起来的时候，不小心（1）了桌上的一碗汤。碗没有破，可是热汤洒了一地，还溅到了她的脚上。小乐马上走过去，（2）地问：“奶奶，您的脚有没有烫到？”老奶奶说：“没事，没事。”地上都是汤，很（3），小乐怕老奶奶摔倒，就扶她坐到另一张桌子旁边，又去柜台拿纸巾给她擦鞋子。老奶奶拉着小乐的手说：“谢谢你，小朋友！”小乐看她的脚没有红，才（4）地回到妈妈身边吃早餐。 根据短文，第（1）空应填：

   • ・打碎
   • ・打破
   • ✓ 打翻
   • ・喝完

   Why: The answer is “打翻”. The passage says “碗没有破，可是热汤洒了一地” – the bowl tipped over and the soup spilled. “打破” and “打碎” are wrong because “碗没有破”. “喝完” is wrong: the soup was not drunk; it “洒了一地”.

3. 今天，小乐和欢欢一起帮妈妈买午餐。妈妈给了他们一张清单，要买三样东西。他们来到熟食中心，小乐看到旁边有一家玩具店，就兴冲冲地跑过去看。欢欢提醒他：“我们得先完成任务！”小乐想起妈妈的话，觉得很（2），赶紧回来一起买午餐。买完后，他们发现少了鸡腿，原来小乐刚才分心了。欢欢没有责怪他，而是陪他再走一趟。小乐很感激，决定以后做事要更专心。最后，他们顺利把午餐带回家，妈妈开心地称赞他们。小乐心里高兴极了。 根据短文，第（2）空应填：

   • ✓ 惭愧
   • ・生气
   • ・难过
   • ・得意

   Why: The answer is “惭愧” (ashamed). At the food centre, Xiaole ran off to look at the toy shop and forgot about buying lunch. When Huanhuan reminded him, he remembered what his mother had told him and knew he was in the wrong, so he felt ashamed. “难过” (sad) does not fit: nothing in the story makes him sad; he feels bad because he did something wrong. “生气” (angry) does not fit: Huanhuan reminded him kindly, so he has no reason to be angry, and he hurried back to buy lunch at once. “得意” (pleased with himself) does not fit: he has just done something wrong, so he has nothing to be proud of, and he hurries back at once.
