C
One day, as two little boys were walking along the road, they passed a woman carrying a large basket of apples.
The boys thought the woman looked very pale and tired, so they said, “Are you going to the town? If you are, we will carry your basket.” “Thank you,” replied the woman. Then she told them that she had a disabled son. She lived in a small house three miles away, and was now going to the market to sell the apples which grew on the only tree in her little garden. She needed the money for their living.
“We are going the same way you are,” said the boys and they took hold of the basket, one on each side, and trudged along with merry hearts. The poor woman looked glad, and said that she hoped their mother would not be angry with them. “Oh, no,” they replied, “our mother has taught us to be kind to others, and to be useful in any way that we can.”
The woman then offered to give them a few apples for their help. “No, thank you. We want nothing for what we have done,” said the boys. When the woman got home, she told her son what had happened on the road, and they were both made happier that day by the kindness of the two boys.
Another day, the woman saw his son stop and pick up a piece of orange peel which he threw into the dustbin. “I wish people would not throw orange peel on the sidewalk,” said the son. “Someone may walk upon it, and fall.” “That is right, my dear,” she said. “It is a little thing for you to do what you have done, but it shows that you're thoughtful and considerate.”

答案： 1. C 【解析】细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句中的“our mother has taught us to be kind to others，and to be useful in any way that we can”可知，男孩们的妈妈告诉他们要友善待人，所以他们帮助这位女士提篮子。故选C。
2. B 【解析】推理判断题。通读全文内容可知，文章讲述了两个男孩帮助一位女士提篮子和女士的儿子捡橘皮以防他人滑倒的故事。由此可知，每个人都可以通过做一些小事来帮助别人。故选B。
3. A 【解析】词义猜测题。根据第三段第一句中的“they took hold of the basket，one on each side”以及第一段第一句中的“two little boys were walking along the road”可知，此处指他们俩分别提着篮子的一边，开心地向前走。因此，trudged在此处意为“走，步行”。故选A。
4. C 【解析】标题概括题。通读全文可知，文章通过讲述两个男孩帮助一位女士提篮子以及女士的儿子捡橘皮以防他人滑倒的故事，说明了“小事也能体现善意”的道理。因此，最佳标题为“Small Act of Kindness”。故选C。
