第三部分 阅读理解（共两节; 满分 40 分）

第一节 (共 15 小题;每小题 2 分,满分 30 分)

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C 和 D）中，选出最佳选项。

A

One Sunday morning in June 1959 my mother walked into my room. “Surprise!” she said, proudly holding up a yellow dress. “I made it just for you. What do you think?”

I bit my tongue. How could I tell Mom it was the ugliest dress I had ever seen?

“Wow!” I said. Somehow I kept the conversation going. The next thing I knew was that Dennis had asked me out on a date!

We courted (恋爱) through college, and eventually got married. Months after our wedding I asked Dennis if he remembered the day he had first asked me out.

“Certainly I do,” he said. “You were always quiet in school. I didn’t think you’d be much fun. But you were so lively when we talked on the church steps, I wanted to get to know you better.” Maybe that yellow dress
