That night the wind and the rain woke Mary up.
“Horrid（非常讨厌的）rain!” she said. “It came because it knew I didn’t want it.”
Then she heard another noise. It was the strange crying sound. She got out of bed, picked up the candle and went out into the long, dark corridor（走廊）outside her room. As she followed it, the sound became louder and louder. Finally, she arrived at a door. She opened it quietly and went in. The room was large and full of beautiful old furniture. There was a fire in the fireplace and a candle next to a big bed. In it she could see a boy and he was crying. He had a white face, long dark hair and big grey eyes. He looked ill but he wasn’t crying because he was in pain.
Mary went towards the bed. The boy turned his head and stared at her.
“Who are you?” he whispered. “Are you a ghost?”
“No,” Mary answered. “Are you a ghost?”
He stared at her with his big eyes.
“No,” he replied. “I am Colin. Colin Craven. Who are you?”
“I am Mary Lennox. Mr Craven is my uncle.”
“He’s my father,” said the boy.
“Your father! I didn’t know that he had a son!” shouted Mary. “Why were you crying?”
“I was sad and my head hurt.”
“Did the servants tell you about me?” asked Mary.
“No, because they know that I don’t want to see people.”
“Why not?”
“People talk about me because I’m always ill. I don’t like it. My father doesn’t like it either.

But I’m going to die. If I live, I’m probably going to be a hunchback（驼背的人）like him.”
“Does your father come and see you?”
“He doesn’t want to see me.”
“Why not?” Mary asked again.
“My mother died when I was born. He feels sad when he looks at me. I think he almost hates me.”
“He hates the garden because she died,” said Mary, half speaking to herself.
“What garden?” the boy asked.
“Oh, just a garden she liked,” Mary said.
Then she said quickly, “Do you always stay in bed?”
“Yes. But a doctor from London said I must go out in the fresh air. I hate fresh air.”
“Oh,” said Mary.
Mary learned a lot about Colin. Mary began to understand that Colin was spoilt. His father gave him everything he asked for. And Colin never had to do anything if he didn’t want to do it.
“Everyone has to do what I want,” Colin said. “I get ill if I’m angry.”

【分析】
本题是《秘密花园》的阅读理解题，需结合原文信息逐一分析每道题：
1. 第1题：先定位玛丽醒来后的相关描述，从“Horrid rain”判断她的情绪，再从她听到哭声后起身查看的行为判断好奇心，从而确定答案。
2. 第2题：词义猜测题，需结合该词所在句的上下文，后文提到柯林父亲满足他所有要求，由此推断“spoilt”的含义。
3. 第3题：推理判断题，需梳理人物关系：玛丽的叔叔是Mr Craven，柯林是Mr Craven的儿子，进而判断两人关系。
4. 第4题：细节理解题，需找到原文中关于柯林与他人交流的描述，匹配选项内容。
【解析】
1. 第1题：根据原文“Horrid（非常讨厌的）rain!”可知玛丽醒来时对雨感到不满，情绪不开心；再根据“Then she heard another noise. It was the strange crying sound. She got out of bed, picked up the candle and went out into the long, dark corridor（走廊）outside her room.”可知玛丽听到奇怪的哭声后主动出去查看，表现出好奇。因此选A。
2. 第2题：根据后文“His father gave him everything he asked for.”可知柯林想要什么父亲都给，说明他被宠坏了。选项中“indulged”意为“被纵容的，被宠坏的”，符合语境，因此选B。
3. 第3题：根据原文“I am Mary Lennox. Mr Craven is my uncle.”和“‘He's my father,’ said the boy.”可知，Mr Craven是玛丽的叔叔，是柯林的父亲，因此玛丽和柯林是堂兄妹关系，选D。
4. 第4题：根据原文“No, because they know that I don’t want to see people.”可知柯林不想见人，说明他很少与他人交流，C项正确；A项原文未提及仆人是否喜欢他，B项玛丽醒来是因为风雨，D项Mr Craven是玛丽的叔叔，原文未说他不喜欢玛丽，因此选C。
