問題詳情：

It was windy and cold when a store owner was sticking a sign above his door that read “pets for Sale”. Just as he expected, soon a little boy appeared by the store.

“How much are you going to sell the dogs for？” he asked. The store owner answered, “$10 for each.” The little boy reached in his pocket and pulled out some change. “I have $2.5，” he said. “May I please look at them？”

The store owner smiled, taking out five dogs but one was left behind. Immediately the little boy singled it out and said, “What's wrong with that little dog？” The store owner explained that the little puppy was disabled. It would always be lame.

The little boy became excited. “That is the little puppy that I want to buy.” The store owner said, “No, you don't want to buy that little dog. If you really want him, I'll just give him to you.”

The little boy got quite upset. He looked into the store owner's eyes, pointing his finger, and said, “I don't want you to give him to me. That dog is worth every bit as much as all the other dogs and I'll pay full price. In fact, I'll give you $2.5 now, and 50 cents a month until I have him paid for.”

The store owner countered, “You really don't want to buy this little dog. He is never going to be able to run and jump and play with you like the other puppies.” To this, the little boy reached down and rolled up his trousers leg to show his left leg supported by a big metal stick. He looked up at the store owner and softly answered, “Well, I don't run so well myself, and the little puppy will need someone who understands！”

【回答】

本文通過一個小男孩來買一條殘疾的小*的故事來説明一個道理：理解、尊重的重要*。

1. B　細節理解題。從第一段內容瞭解到該商店老闆是要出售寵物*，牌子上寫的是Pets for Sale，以吸引孩子來買寵物，故選B。

2. C　推理判斷題。孩子聽到這條小*殘疾，結合自己的經歷，好像找到了知己，由此他因為感到自己有責任幫助它而感到興奮。

3. A　細節理解題。由於孩子只有$2.5，而小*的價格為每條$10。若全價買下來且每月還50 cents，那剩下的$7.5還要15個月。
