When I was a stay-at-home mom, there were times I wished I could buy some beautiful flowers, but the money that they would cost was needed in the home. When I walked into town with the family, my youngest daughter, Lily, would always carry a flower stem(花梗). That’s how she got the nickname “Stick Girl”.
One day when we passed the flower lady with Lily, the flower lady smiled at her and said, “Come here. I have something for you.” She handed her a beautiful flower. Lily dropped the stem and held on to that flower until we came back home. We placed it in water and enjoyed the beauty of that flower along with the feelings of warmth and kindness from the flower lady.
My neighbors would run to her to get a bouquet of flowers whenever they wanted to, and I used to give directions(为人指路) using the flower lady. I would say, “Walk for three blocks. You’ll see the flower lady. Turn right at that street.”
My mom visits me each year. On her first summer visit this year, she looked at me and asked, “Where’s the flower lady?”
I had no idea. The flower lady had been an icon(偶像) for me for 16 years, but now she wasn’t there any more.
I went on a search and soon found her in another spot, at the Harbor Loop. I was glad to see her and I had to tell her that she was missed!
I have a garden which I admire very much now. Every time I see those bright colors when I come home after a day of work, I remember the generosity of a dear old lady whom I only know as the flower lady.

A. accepted it happily

56—59 ABBC

（导读）“我”在家做全职太太时却没有闲钱给女儿买花，女儿只能拿着花梗，这时一位卖花女郎好心送给女儿一支鲜花让“我”至今记忆犹新——人间最珍贵的是慷慨和给予。
56. A。判断推理题。通读第二段就可以看出，小女孩收到鲜花以后，一直不离后，回家又放在水里面，所以应该是非常高兴。
57. B。判断推理题。“我”介绍别人去买卖花女郎的花，以及给陌生人指路时以卖花女郎为参照物，就是因为前面受过其好处，心存感激。
58. B。细节理解题。通读文章，从最后一句话可以看出，“我”并不知道这位妇女的更多信息。
59. C。主旨大意题。文章主要说了一位卖花女郎给女儿鲜花前后发生的故事，所以选C。
