【正确答案】 C
【答案解析】细节理解题。根据题干关键词she quickened her steps定位至第一段第四句。该句提到她之所以加快了脚步，是为了避免被人看出她是在找活儿干，这让她感到有些羞愧，因而她装出一副办理公事的那种人常有的漫不经心的神气，以免引起注意。这与[C]“想要看上去像在这里工作”表述一致，故[C]为正确答案。由上述分析可知，姑娘是来寻找工作的，其实是想要仔细地搜寻，所以并不会急于离开这个地方，也不会害怕被当成陌生人，故排除[A]和[B]；[D]“想要在那一天到更多的工厂找工作”在原文中没有依据，故排除。

【正确答案】 A
【答案解析】推理判断题。根据题干关键词Storm and King定位至第一段倒数第十一句。该句之后的内容提到，她看到这家公司雇用女店员，本来觉得有希望，但看到门口有两个男人，还有个穿制服的邮差来送电报，门口熙熙攘攘，人流不断，又发现有人在打量她，于是就放弃了，感觉没法当着这些人的面走进这幢建筑。可见她是太过胆小而不敢走进去，这也可以从本段开头部分得到证实，故[A]为答案。[B]“两个男人在人口处拦住了她”是对第一段倒数第六句的误解，原文只说有两个男人在人口处站住了，并没有说拦住了她，故排除；倒数第四句说大街上行人穿梭，但并没有说这些行人是否觉得她奇怪，故排除[C]；倒数第五句提到的邮差只是从她旁边经过，并没有关上门，故排除[D]。

【正确答案】 D
【答案解析】语义理解题。根据题干提示定位至第二段第三句。定位句指出，每前进一步，她都会因为逃远了一些而感到满足和高兴，结合上一段说到，她胆子很小，在大楼门前看到人多，并感觉到有人在打量她，心里就十分紧张，甚至放弃了进去找工作的机会，可知她离开只是单纯地因为不愿意再待在这个地方，想要离开这里，这与[D]表述一致，故[D]为正确答案。根据前文不难知道，她寻找工作的事情还一点都没有进展和头绪，故排除[A]“她认为自己在找工作的事情上正有所进展”；第一段开头作者就说明，她对于找工作是很羞怯和害怕的，甚至想要掩盖自己找工作的事情，因此排除[B]“她很高兴自己正在找工作”；第二段首句说她因为自己没有勇气走进风雷皇家公司而感到垂头丧气，并没有对自己的经历感到很满意，故排除[C]。

【正确答案】 B
【答案解析】推理判断题。根据题干提示定位至第七段最后一句。定位句之前解释了她松了一口气的原因：原本预想要遭到粗暴的对待，却没想到会有人十分和气地同自己说话，尽管仍然是被拒绝了，但是这让她觉得没有遭受羞辱，也没有被人看出自己的不幸处境，可见她放松的原因是风雷皇家公司的老先生和气地对待她，故[B]为正确答案。由上述分析可知，姑娘感到心情稍稍放松是因为没有受到预想中的粗暴对待，并不是因为自己终于敢于走进大楼或开口询问，故排除[A]和[C]；而从第六段老先生的答复中可以看出，她还是被委婉拒绝了，并没有得到一份工作，故排除[D]。
