（2011辽宁高考） This year I decided to do something to regain my good name as a kindly uncle. My nephew, Tony, had never forgiven me for the dictionary I had bought him as a birthday present last year. His parents had no reason to be thankful to me either, because the year before, I had presented their dear son with a pot of paste 浆糊 and some funny pictures. Instead of sticking them into a book, Tony had naturally covered every wall in the house with them. This year, therefore, I decided to let him choose for himself. We went into a big shop, but Tony was very particular about toys. Although I tried to show him toy after toy, he was not to be pleased. Then I saw he suddenly became excited; he had discovered something he really liked: a large tin drum. I was quite happy too棗until I thought what Tony’s mother would say when she saw it. Nobody would get any peace for weeks! I led Tony away quickly, saying that the drum was too expensive. Tony asked for permission to go off on his own and I made the most of my chance to sit down and rest my aching feet. Fifteen minutes passed but there was still no sign of Tony. I began to get worried and got up to look for him. I asked a young lady if she had seen a little boy in a grey suit. She looked about her helplessly and pointed out that there were so many small boys in grey suits. I was just going to call the police for help, when I saw a strange figure dressed in strange orange clothes. He was wearing a false beard and had a caveman’s axe 斧子 in one hand, and a space gun in the other. It was, of course, Tony, who informed me that he was the first caveman to fly into space. decide [disaid] vt.决定判决解决vi.决定下决心[riɡein] vt.恢复重新获得收回vi.上涨n.收复；取回[kaindli] adj.和蔼的，亲切的 adv. 亲切地；温和地；仁慈地[nefju:] n. 侄子；外甥[dik??n?ri] n. 字典，词典 forgive [f?ɡiv] vt. 原谅免除（债务、义务等）[b?:t] v.购买 reason [ri:z?n] n. 理由；理性；动机[prez?nt, prizent] n. 现在礼物瞄准vt. 提出介绍呈现赠送adj. 现在的出席的 present oneself 出席 at present 目前，现在 present situation 现状 at the present 目前；当前 presen
