23、Alison cornered me in the kitchen. “Daddy, I really want a rat!”
“Again?” I saw the ugly grey things with round eyes and long tails in my mind.
This topic was around in our family for about one year. This time, Alison told me seriously how she would take care of the rat herself, and how she would learn to be responsible. I wanted to say “no” as usual, but it was not the right reply for this situation.
“Well, you should at least do some research about rats: How much do they cost? What care do they need?” I said, thinking that the answers she’d find might change her mind.
But Alison acted. She searched for information and made many notes. She learned what the best cage for rats is and what types of food they can (and can’t) eat. She even learned that two rats are better than one—they like staying together.
I finally gave in. We called up several pet stores, asking for baby rats. One store told us it just received some that would be ready on sale in a week. Alison was so excited—her dream would come true soon.
On Sunday afternoon, I drove Alison there. I must say, the rats were much cuter than I’d imagined.
Alison carefully picked out two little ones with her soft little hands. She cradled the cage with them, singing with a huge smile.
“I can’t believe I have them after a year of begging!”
“It wasn’t your begging.” I told her, “You showed me you were responsible, so I wanted to reward that!”

A.she had no idea what kind of animal rats were

C.she could really be responsible for her new pet
D.he thought she might change her decision in this way
【2】During Alison’s research, she didn’t learn ________.
A.the best the cage for rats
B.the healthy diet for a rat
C.where to get the best pets
D.the living habits of rats
【3】The father finally agreed to keep rats because ________.
A.he saw Alison was ready to take on the responsibility
B.Alison never give up after asking for pet rats for a year
C.he found pet rats weren’t so scary but quite cute
D.He always wanted to satisfy he daughter’s wish
【4】What can we NOT infer from the passage?
A.Alison had been refused by her father several times before.
B.Alison enjoyed great pleasure and satisfaction from achieving her dream.
C.The father had set a good example in educating kids.
D.Alison finally realized her dream mainly because of her strong love for rats.

24、 At that moment a happy voice called, 'Hello, my dears!' It was Mrs March. The girls j【1】 up and ran to the front door.
While she was t【2】off her wet coat and shoes and putting on the warm slippers, Mrs March talked to her daughters about their day.
'How is your cold, Meg? Jo, you look tired. Did anyone call today, Beth? Amy, baby, come and give me a kiss.'
Then the girls quickly p【3】 the table for the evening meal and they all sat down to eat. There was a happy smile on Mrs March's face.
