小题2:文章第二段第一句And then the boy told the young man that he would clean his shoes for nothing. 意思为小男孩不需要任何东西可以给那个年轻人擦鞋,所以年轻让让小男孩擦鞋,是因为小男孩说他不需要任何东西,故本题选D。
小题3:根据文章第二段第三行有一句the boy refused to clean it because he wanted the man to pay two dollars for his work.意思为小男孩拒绝擦另一只鞋,因为他想那个年轻人为他所做的事付2美元,也就是想让那个年轻人付钱,故本题选D。
