【解析】

试题分析：曾德楣是一位70多岁的退休工人。他参加了当地妇联发起的资助农村贫困女孩上学的春蕾计划。在八月炎热的一天他去福建省仙游县看望因为贫困而辍学的两个女孩，却只见到其中一个。女孩名叫苏秋菊。今年八岁，父母双亡，现在和叔叔生活在一起。叔叔家境也很差。曾决定资助那些孩子上学直到他自己走不动，看不见为止。

1.考查上下文的理解能力。从空前一句话的意思（曾从包里拿出两个表格。）判断，空白处选择有two一词的句子更符合语境。所以最佳选择B。意为：这两张表格是给他今天早晨要去看望的两个小女孩的。

2.考查上下文的理解能力。从空前一句话的意思（他们看了曾递给他们的表格，马上认出了女孩子们。）判断，此处最佳选C（他们住在不远的小村子里，尽管只有其中一个还住在家。）和后面的意思连接更紧密。他想看看留下来的那个女孩：苏秋菊。

3.考查上下文的理解能力。从空前一句话的意思（ 她现在和叔叔生活在一起，叔叔穷得连自己的孩子都不能负担学业。但是苏秋菊的学业很不错。）判断，此处最佳选D（她展示了她的书法天赋，把她的名字的那三个汉字写得既整齐又漂亮）。

4.考查上下文的理解能力。从空前一句话的意思（早在1999年，曾参加了有当地妇联发起的一项帮助贫困家庭的孩子上学的运动 。）判断，此处最佳选G（他被孩子们的穷苦困境打动，决定倾其所有来帮助一个女孩。）。

5.考查上下文的理解能力。从空前一句话的意思（对我来说，孩子们的教育们是最重要的事。）判断，此处选E（孩子们辍学的想法让我晚上睡不好觉。）和后面的语境结合（我得在九月份开学前筹集到足够的捐款。）
