【浙江省专用】 2022-2023学年外研版七年级下册英语期末专练（时文阅读+完型填空） 一、阅读理解题 阅读下列短文，根据短文内容，从短文后各题所给的选项中，选择最佳选项。 Christmas is over. And Paplo Sica got the radio-controlled truck that he wanted. But nobody would believe the pain and work that went into getting this holy (神圣的) toy. It all started on October 13 when a friend of his brought a car magazine to school. As soon as Paplo Sica saw it, he knew he wanted a truck for Christmas. For over a month Paplo Sica stared at car magazines until he made up his mind: "I want a Midnight Pumpkin truck! I have got to work immediately, dropping hints (暗示) to my father about it." His first job was to tell his father about how the steering (操纵杆) on his own car didn't work. But his father just blamed the problems on Paplo's bad driving and by the end of the week Paplo was US ＄36.79 poorer after he was made to get some repairs. Paplo's next plan would have to be more obvious. "Look at this, Dad. The Midnight Pumpkin radio-controlled truck with controller and battery pack (电池包)—all for only US ＄250! You can't afford to miss out this Bargain!" His answer was that he certainly could afford to miss a bargain like this and that for US ＄250 you could buy something educational, like a telescope. "A telescope ! To look at the moon ! The moon has been around for 50 billion years and will probably be around for another 5 billion! I'll look at it through a telescope when I'm 97 years old and living in a nursing home! This is my youth! I'm supposed to run around." Paplo went into his room, angry at how mean his father was. It was obvious that his father didn't care that Paplo would die if he didn't get the Midnight Pumpkin radio-controlled truck. When Paplo woke up on Christmas morning he wasn't excited. He had been beaten. Paplo opened all his presents until there was just one big package left. "The telescope," he thought. Paplo Sica removed the packaging and looked at the top of the box—it was a Midnight Pumpkin truck. "I have won! I love my parents! I could even get an A+ in English class!"
