He stopped to ask what she wanted for Christmas. Kylie was surprised and let him know: ‘If you can39。t remember what I told you last week, how are you going to remember on Christmas Eve?!’”可知,當(dāng)Kylie遇到另一個圣誕老人時,她感到很驚訝,因為她認(rèn)為他們是同一個圣誕老人。故選D。(2)考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第二段中的“That39。s just some guy in a Santa suit,” he said. It saddened me to think that maybe my son no longer believed in Santa, and we drove the rest of the way in silence. At the mall, we spotted another Santa greeting young believers. Suddenly, Mike took off toward him. Turning back to me, he shouted. ‘Now, there39。s the real Santa!’”可知,邁克遇到一個圣誕老人,他認(rèn)為這個只是穿著圣誕老人的一個人而已;但在商場,碰到另一個圣誕老人,他卻認(rèn)為這個是真的,所以推知父母對邁克對圣誕老人的態(tài)度感到疑惑。故選C。(3)考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)最后一段中的“He handed out presents and made us laugh. I had so much fun.
