【要点综述】一个沿街乞讨的乞丐遇到了财富女神，财富女神给了乞丐许多金币，同时告诫乞丐，金币掉到地上则化为灰尘。贪婪的乞丐不听劝告，导致金币撑破钱包化为灰尘，乞丐又变得一无所有。故事告诫人们面对金钱不要贪得无厌。
16．D根据第一段最后一句，为什么那些人如此有钱却从不满足，还想得到更多。可知乞丐对此百思不得其解，“keep wondering”(一直想知道)符合句意。
17．B还想得到更多，所以不满足，B项符合句意。
18．C由常识可知，乞丐最重要的是要解决吃和穿的问题。eat(吃)对应下面提到的“穿”，符合语境。learn学习；watch看，观察；play游戏；均不符合语境。
19．A根据第一段，乞丐在沿街乞讨，所以财富女神降落到大街上才能看到乞丐。street(街道)符合语境。bridge桥；yard院子；forest森林；均不符合语境。
20．C根据下文，“打开你的钱包，我要给你一些金子”，可知财富女神在帮助乞丐。所以选help，意为：帮助。praise表扬；forgive原谅；comfort安慰；均不符合语境。
21．D根据第三段中“All that falls into the wallet will be pure gold”(所有进入你钱包的都是纯金)可知乞丐打开的是一个钱包，所以选wallet，意为“钱包”。
22．D只有在这种条件下，“我”才会去做。“All that falls into the wallet will be pure gold; but every piece falling upon the________shall become dust”指上文提到的这种条件。condition“条件、状况”，符合句意。
23．C句意：每一枚金币掉到地上都会变成尘土。ground(地面)符合语境。
24．A根据下文财富女神告诫乞丐不要装得太重，提醒乞丐注意、当心。所以选look out。look after照顾；look up仰视，向上看；look down俯视。
25．C上文中“With an old wallet in his hand”表明这是一个旧钱包，所以选worn，意思是：用旧的。
26．B could hardly wait to do sth.意为：迫不及待做某事。句意：激动的乞丐早已迫不及待地想拿到金子。
27．A根据倒数第三段中提到“golden stream”可知答案。
28．C通过乞丐告诉财富女神钱包现在还很结实，可知不要为钱包担心。Never fear.不要害怕。29．D句意：钱包装了如此多的金币，乞丐的手开始发抖。shake(发抖)符合语境。spread伸展；close关闭；loose放松；均不符合语境。
30．A乞丐希望金子源源不断地流出，四个选项中只有pour(流出)能形象地描绘出乞丐的贪婪。
31．B对应前文的“Just a little more，”可知，这里表达的意思是：贪婪的乞丐想再往钱包中多装一两把金子。add(添加)符合句意。take拿，携带；lend借出；send发送；均不符合语境。最后一段的第一句话也有原词复现：One more piece was added and the wallet split。
32．B钱包已经装满了，而且是一个旧钱包，继续装可能会裂开。所以选burst“破裂”。下文中的“split”为同义词复现。
33．D贪婪的乞丐认为钱包还能多装一点。hold“容纳”，符合语境。
34．C treasure(财宝)这里指代金币。钱包破裂后金币自然会掉到地上。present礼物；food 食物；metal金属；均不符合句意。
35．A句意：贪婪的乞丐除了破裂的钱包一无所有。nothing什么也没有。
C
