7.I had hidden the long black bag in the garage(車庫) for the past two days.Tonight,in the dark,I would finally take it away.If everything went OK,it would be done by morning.But I had to be sure no one,not even my wife,saw me.
It was more difficult to get away from the party than I expected.I said that the children were tired and needed to get to bed.It was partly true.But the main reason for leaving was that I wanted to complete my plan.
First I had to get the kids to sleep.That was never easy at any time and tonight it was even more difficult.The eldest one wanted to know why we left the party early.I told him 10:30pm was not early.As usual,I read them a bed-time story,but I had to stop myself reading too quickly or they would learn my secret.
Silence finally came,and feeling like a thief in the night,I went out of the house and into the garage.Taking one end,I dragged the bag out from its hiding place and took it into the garden.I was worried that my neighbors might hear me and call the police.
It was already eleven o'clock.By the light of the moon I started working,trying to make as little noise as possible.And that was not easy with a saw (鋸子) and a hammer(鐵錘).
After much effort,my work was finally completed.I looked down at my watch.It was exactly 4:00am.Then I went inside to have a shower and get a few hours of sleep.It wouldn't be long now before the kids would rush into my room and wake me up to tell me about the new tree-house Father Christmas had brought them this year.

分析 我把一個長黑色的包裹藏在車庫里兩天了.今天晚上我終于可以把它拿走了.如果一切順利,早上之前就做完了.但是我必須確定沒有人看到我,甚至我的妻子.
離開聚會比我想象的更困難.我說孩子們累了需要上床睡覺.這句話中有一部分是真實的,但離開的主要原因是我想完成我的計劃.
首先,我不得不讓孩子睡覺.讓孩子睡覺這件事情從來就不是一件簡單的事情,今晚就更加困難了.老大想知道為什么我們提前離開了派對,我告訴他10:30已經不早了.平時,我會給他們讀一個睡前故事,但今天我不得不提醒自己不要閱讀的太快,以免他們發覺了我的秘密.
終于迎來了寂靜,感覺自己像一個深夜里的小偷,我走出房子進入車庫.我把包從它藏的地方拿出來并把它帶到花園里.我擔心我的鄰居可能會因為聽到我的聲音而報警.
已經十一點鐘了.在月光的照射下我開始工作,試圖盡可能的減少噪音,而使用鋸和錘子想要不發出聲音真的很難.
經過多番努力,我的工作終于完成了.我低頭看了看手表,正好是上午四點整.于是我去里面洗了個澡,睡了幾個小時.過不了多久我的孩子們便會趕到我的房間并叫醒我,告訴我圣誕老人給他們的新木屋.
解答 51.A.細節理解題.根據第一段,這個人在車庫里把包藏了兩天,而今天晚上他要拿走,而且必須保證沒有人看見他,甚至是他的妻子,因此他做這件事情瞞著自己的家人,而在自己的家中瞞著家人做事,是會緊張的,即nervous;
52.C.詞義猜測題.根據這個詞所在的句子,As usual,I read them a bed-time story,but I had to stop myself reading too quickly or they would learn my secret.可知,平時孩子們睡覺這個人會給孩子們講睡前故事,但是今天由于他有任務,時間緊,因此他很著急,但是他又不能把故事講的太快,因為如果太快,孩子們會感覺不對勁,從而learn他的秘密,根據前后分析可知,這里的learn的意思是知道;
53.B.細節理解題.根據據短文描述的先后順序可知這個人先去了聚會,之后以孩子困了需要睡覺為由帶孩子們走了.回來后給孩子們讀故事,然后把袋子從車庫里拖出來,之后在月光下工作,工作后洗澡并睡了幾個小時,按照時間的先后順序排列即可.故選B.
54.D.細節理解題.根據It wouldn't be long now before the kids would rush into my room and wake me up to tell me about the new tree-house Father Christmas had brought them this year.可知,這個人知道不久后他們的孩子會沖進他的房間,激動的告訴他圣誕老人給他們建了新樹屋,而且從上文And that was not easy with a saw (鋸子) and a hammer(鐵錘).可知這個人的工作紅用到了鋸和錘子,因此可知這個人神神秘秘的工作一晚上就是為了建造新的木屋,這個人就是孩子眼中的圣誕老人;
55.B.推理判斷題.根據54的描述,這個人做了一個新的木屋當作給孩子們的圣誕禮物,而且孩子們認為這個禮物是圣誕老人給的,因此文章中描述的這個事情應該發生在圣誕節之前,即B.
