【解析】

試題分析：文章講述了一個有趣的小故事，告誡人們做任何事情以前要認(rèn)真思考，把握好時(shí)機(jī)，不要錯過機(jī)遇而后悔。

1.1】C細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第六段最后一句The cake was still stuck to the husband’s nose.句意是：蛋糕仍然在她丈夫的鼻子上。所以她的丈夫和她爭吵，故選C

2.2】A細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第二段第一句The man had just finished eating a piece of bread for his dinner, but he was still hungry.這個男士用餐時(shí)剛剛吃過一塊面包，但他仍然很餓。所以A項(xiàng)“這位男士吃飯前實(shí)現(xiàn)了他的愿望�！边@一陳述是錯的，故選A

3.3】B推理判斷題。根據(jù)句意老夫人許諾的三個愿望都已實(shí)現(xiàn)：Suddenly a cake appeared on his plate.突然一塊蛋糕出現(xiàn)在他的盤子里。Immediately the cake stuck to the end of his nose. 蛋糕立即粘到他的鼻子上。Immediately the cake was gone蛋糕立刻從鼻子上下來了。也就是說他們已經(jīng)用完了三個愿望，這已經(jīng)是第四個愿望了，所以老夫人沒有滿足男士的愿望。故選B
