点评:本文是一则趣味故事,属趣味性记叙文,描写了一个小女生为追求与众不同的外表而产生的一个个可笑行为。在母亲的开导下小女孩最终意识到了自己的独特之处,因此小女孩的言行并不令人讨厌,而让人感到傻气可爱。然而文章的可贵之处不仅在于给我们提供一个可笑可爱的女孩形象,还在于它给我们提供了一个真理:每个人都有自己的独特之处。文章前面大多数空档的正确信息体现小女孩的傻气可爱,后面几个空档的正确信息体现人人都有自己的独特之处,因此理解趣味故事的主题和其中蕴含的道理非常重要。

点评:本文是一篇具有教育意义和哲理性的寓言故事,描绘了一家人在邀请财富、成功和爱三个老人进屋吃饭这个问题上看法不一致:妻子要让财富进屋,丈夫要让成功进屋,而女儿要让爱进屋。最后全家人采纳了女儿的建议,邀请爱进屋。出乎他们意料的是,这时财富、成功也跟着进屋,原来选择财富或成功,另两个人就不会跟随,而选择爱另两人就会跟随。文章教育我们不要老想发财、成功,要乐意为别人奉献爱。这种教育意义很强的寓言故事是中考英语完形填空题的重要体裁,它的理解难点在于了解寓言故事的教育意义。同学们必须在今后的复习中关注与感受这一点。
