【答案与解析】1. B。看完文章的结尾处我们已经很清楚地知道了，把耳朵给那个男孩的不是别人正是他的母亲，因此文章的主题无疑是突出了母爱的伟大，突出了对母亲牺牲精神的赞颂，因此本题最符合的答案无疑是B。2. D。本题要求我们猜测划线词的含义，我们通过划线词的上下文知道，那一些大孩子嘲笑他是freak，很多同学可能会联想到那个男孩子没有耳朵，因此是freak一词应该是长相丑陋之意，但是若我们细加注意，可以发现下文中描述道：He grew up, for his .因此男孩的外表并不丑陋，而是因为没有耳朵在外形上与普通人不一样，因此我们猜测该词的含义为：- .3. C。显然到最后那个男孩在母亲去世后，父亲撩开母亲的头发后知道了是母亲把耳朵给了他。4. A。本题要求选择我们从文章中获得的启示，本题容易误选B项，但是B项的描述与本篇的主题不是十分符合，B项的含义为：由父母决定是否全心全意帮助孩子。A项讲的是：真正的爱往往是在默默无闻中而不是为人所知中做的，符合本篇的含义，本篇中母亲一直没让自己的儿子知道是她奉献了她的耳朵，那种默默无闻的爱正是大爱无言的母爱。

【长难句分析】1. A with his , he might have been class , but for that.分析：a with his 为一名词短语作状语，he might have been class , but for that.为but for引起的含蓄条件句，该条件句中使用的是虚拟语气。含蓄条件句中的虚拟条件暗含在短语或上下文之间的含义中, 虚拟的形式要根据实际情况来调整，但虚拟的形式常用“would+动词原形”或“would have done”，含蓄条件句中的虚拟常用, but, but for, 引起，例如：(1) But for the ’s , the ship would have sunk with all on board.要不是船长的努力，船连同船上所有的乘客早就一同沉没了。(2) you, I would never know him.没有你，我就永远不会认识他了。(3) I would be most glad to help you, but I’ am busy now.我十分乐意帮助你，但是我现在很忙。(4) I am busy now, I would do you the favor!我现在很忙，否则我就帮你忙了。【典例分析】1. He for a the ball, he a goal.A. had . . would . would have 答案：D。分析：含蓄条件句中的虚拟语气，本题中表示与过去的事实相反，句意为：“在踢球前没有迟疑片刻的话，他就已经得分了”。
