B
Every boy wants to find treasure. And Tom was no different. One summer day, Tom told Huck about his idea.
“Where can we look for treasure?” asked Huck.
“It’s hidden on islands, under dead trees, but mostly under the floors in haunted houses.”
“Who hid it?”
“Robbers(强盗). You can find a box with some dollars in it, or a chest(大箱子) full of diamonds.”
So, on Saturday afternoon the boys went to look for treasure at the haunted house on Cardiff Hill. It was a quiet and lonely place. And the boys were very frightened. They entered quietly, and explored downstairs. There were cobwebs everywhere and everything was old and broken. Then they threw their tools in a corner and walked upstairs, but there was nothing there. They were just about to go downstairs and start digging when Tom stopped.
“What is it?” whispered Huck, going white with fright.
“Keep still! There’s someone downstairs.”
The boys lay down, looking through the holes in the wooden floor. There were two men downstairs. One was an old Spaniard(西班牙人) with a wide sombrero hat. The other was dirty and unpleasant-looking. The boys shook with fear.
Then the Spaniard spoke. It was Injun Joe. Tom and Huck felt even more frightened.
The men sat down on the floor and ate. They then lay down and fell asleep. When the two men woke up, the stranger said, “It’s time for us to move, partner. What will we do with the $ 650 from the robbery?”“Let’s keep $ 30 each and leave the rest here.”
The dirty man went to the fireplace and moved a stone. Then he lifted out a bag full of money and took out some coins.
The two boys forgot all their fears. There was real treasure downstairs.

答案
4.D 5.B 6.A 7.B
解析
4. 划线短语"going white with fright"意为吓得脸色发白，前文Tom突然停下动作，Huck不清楚发生了什么，听到未知的动静后十分恐惧，对应选项D。选项A（对找到宝藏兴奋）、B（对寻宝感到无聊）、C（生气Tom停下）均不符合原文语境。
5. 文中提到强盗的赃款总共是650美元，他们计划每人留下30美元，两人一共留存60美元，剩余650-60=600美元藏在原处，对应选项B。
6. 文章开篇就说明Tom和其他男孩一样想要寻找宝藏，还主动约Huck前往鬼屋寻宝，能看出他对寻宝很感兴趣。选项B（他懒惰不爱劳作）、C（他不在乎Huck的感受）原文均无相关表述，选项D（他什么都怕从不冒险）和他主动来危险的鬼屋寻宝的情节矛盾，因此选A。
7. 两个男孩此刻躲在楼上，已经发现楼下有真正的宝藏，结合他们孩童的身份和之前害怕强盗的表现，最合理的行为是等强盗离开之后再下楼取走宝藏。选项A（下楼和两名强盗打斗）不符合两个小孩的能力设定，选项C（回家告诉家长）、D（立刻逃跑忘掉宝藏）不符合他们发现真宝藏后忘记恐惧的情节，因此选B。
