Picking tomatoes
For as long as I can remember, Grandma’s plentiful tomato garden has been a sign of summer’s end. Each September, just as the decreased heat of the sun suggests cooler days, Grandma requests my help in her tomato garden. She convinces me she cannot pick tomatoes without my youthful eyes and quick mind. She says we need to examine each tomato and agree on its readiness for picking. While Grandma’s request for my help in the tomato garden is always the same, her desire for my help seems to increase each year.
Grandma has eyes for finding even the tomatoes hidden by undergrowth and other tomatoes. I, however, just turn circles looking for the ones I think Grandma will like. I spot what looks like a ripe tomato, head in its direction, and then get sidetracked by another that appears to be equally ripe. I usually end up watching Grandma and trying to stay out of her way, which seems the only way my eyes and mind ale useful.
There we are, lost in the tomato vines（藤）. Grandma’s eyes are always knowing, and they are no different in the vegetable garden. From afar she spots what looks like a ripe tomato. As she walks toward the garden, she evaluates the tomato for a second time. but from a different angle. I already know it will end up in the basket with the pile of others Grandma has carefully chosen. However, Grandma acts as if she needs a final look to be sure. She calls me to her side, kneels beside the vine while enjoying the warmth of the fading sunlight on her face, and grasps the tomato in her hand. She turns each round, red ball toward the sunlight before disconnecting it from thevine with a half-hearted smile.
She then looks at me. I nod my head and smile. Grandma assumes I smile in agreement with her tomato selection. I know I smile, instead, at her.

(答案→)C 解析：【小题1】细节题。本题从第一段可知奶奶要我和她一起摘西红柿。理由是我的youthful eyes and quick mind.但从第二段又可知奶奶找西红柿比我快多了，因此可知奶奶的真正目的是为了和孙子在一起。【小题2】推断题。第二段我找奶奶可能会喜欢的西红柿，找到一个熟的，伸手去摘，却摘回另一个。因此可知他很不善于干这个活。【小题3】推断题。奶奶要求作者陪她摘西红柿，说不能确信西红柿是否已经成熟，于是两人一起商量，摘的时候，很明显奶奶明明很在行，却仍然要征求作者的意见，作者明白了奶奶的真实意图(只为有机会与孙子呆在一起)就朝奶奶笑来回应奶奶。【小题4】推断题。此题可用排除法孙子也没用心学习摘西红柿，排除A项奶奶只为孙子能陪在身边就行了，没提耐心的事，排除B项。孙子现在也没依赖奶奶，因此没有涉及独立的事，排除C项。文章第一段最后一句，“奶奶的要求(我陪她摘西红柿)越来越强烈”。故选D。
