本短文讲述Read一家的琐事：人物（Mr and Mrs Read and their three daughters），Mr Read的脾气，Mrs Read的情况，宠物Polly的习性等。31．B。其它三项为男名。32．D。33．A。从与后文Mrs Read的对比及选项提示，可知Mr Read很宠爱孩子，总是说“OK”。所以34题顺承选A。35．B。宾格且指代Mrs Read。36．B。“给”意思最确切。 37．C。指代动物的“它的”。38．D。play with固定搭配。39．C。hello为英语单词，但后一句中有“你好”，所以上句应为“用汉语讲hello”之意。40．B。本句中they指代the children，可了解the children与Mrs Read之间是母女关系。
