【分析】
这道题分为阅读还原和细节判断两部分,解题时首先要理清语篇围绕狄更斯生平与创作经历展开的主线,逐处匹配前后文的衔接线索:
1. 做阅读还原题时,重点关注空前后的逻辑转折、指代关系、承上启下的对应内容:第1空前说狄更斯小时候不爱和其他男孩玩耍,空后说他空闲时间读很多书,需要转折句衔接前后内容;第2空后介绍他12岁就进工厂长时间劳作,是对童年艰苦经历的展开,需要总起句引出童年不易的内容;第3空前说《匹克威克外传》出版后让他变得富有出名,对应之前的苦难经历,自然衔接苦日子结束的内容;第4空后出现代词They,指代空处的复数对象,后文描述他们年纪很小就过苦日子、寄宿或者进工厂,对应书里的儿童角色;第5空后说明他的故事虽然悲伤黑暗但充满幽默、大多是圆满结局,需要转折句引出作品内核充满希望的内容。
2. 做细节判断题时,将每个选项和原文内容逐一比对,排除和原文表述不符的错误选项,即可选出正确项。

But Mary Jane just looked him in the eyes and replied, "Here's my answer, doctor!" She picked up the bag of gold and g 1 it to the king. "Please take this money and look after it for me and my sisters. Do what you want with it. I don't want a receipt." Everybody clapped and stamped their feet on the floor. The king smiled and h 2 up his head. "Alright, Mary Jane," the doctor said. "Don't listen to me! But you'll be s 3 ." And he left the house.
The three girls were very k 4 to us. They prepared a lovely dinner and they gave us their bedrooms to sleep in. I felt really bad that the king and the duke were cheating them. Later, when I was in bed that night, I started thinking.
"Those girls are very sweet and generous and the king and the duke are going to rob (抢劫) them. I can't let them do that. I must do something to s 5 them. Should I tell the doctor and Mary Jane the truth? No, that isn't a good idea. They'll think that I'm a fraud too. There's only one thing to do. I'll have to take the money and h 6 it somewhere. Then when I'm far away, I'll write a letter to Mary Jane. I'll tell her where the bag is and she will get the gold b 7 ."
The king and the duke were still downstairs in the dining room. I crept (蹑手蹑脚地走) very quietly into the duke's room and l 8 around for the bag of gold. I found it under the mattress (床垫). I took it and crept back to my room. I waited u 9 the king and the duke went to bed, and then I slowly crept downstairs with the bag of gold in my hand. I tried to open the front door but it was locked and there was no key.
Suddenly, I heard footsteps. S 10 was coming. I looked around for a place to hide. The door of the living room was open so I ran in there.

I think his decision is brave and thoughtful. He wants to protect the girls from being robbed, but he is afraid that if he tells the truth, he might not be believed because the king and the duke have already gained trust. Hiding the gold and planning to return it later is a clever way to both stop the cheating and keep himself safe.
I would probably do the same because sometimes telling the truth directly in a difficult situation can cause more trouble. His way solves the problem without putting himself in immediate danger. It shows that he cares about doing the right thing even if he has to do it secretly.(开放性试题,答案不唯一,言之有理即可)
