car.we were in downtown seattle and it was a very cold night.as we were walking to my car,a man walked up to us.behind him was a woman pushing a stroller with a child inside who was about one year old.the child had a jacket on but it wasnt zipped (拉上拉链).the man told us that he wanted to borrow some money to get his wife and kid into a hotel for the night.he had a job but no place to live in and was waiting for his first salary.he said he could get our mailing address and mail the money back to us.the guy i was with reached into his pocket to give this man a $20 bill.as the man was extending his hand out to take the money,i put my hand on my friends hand and said,“can i talk to you for a minute?”then i told him some people earned money by begging.they cheated those warm-hearted people.and if they were truly worried about their child being out of the cold,they would have at least zipped his jacket.my friend looked at me and said,“michael,i know there are some people who take advantage of others.i also know some people out there that are one paycheck away from being homeless.if i give $20 to 10 people and only one of them really needs it and uses it for the right thing,it is worth it.”i am now thirty-seven years old and have never forgotten what my friend said to me.i dont even remember his name now,but i do remember that experience changed my perspective (观点) and the way i look at different situations.1.when did the author experience the matter?a.about twenty-five years ago.b.more than twenty years ago.c.when he lived in the suburb.d.when he was in his late teens.答案:d提示:细节理解题。根据文章第一段开头可以知道这件事发生在作者十九岁的时候。2.the underlined word “stroller” in paragraph 1 probably means“”.a.big luggageb.large packagec.baby carriaged.small bicycle答案:c提示:词义猜测题。根据后面“.with a child inside who was about one year old.”可知stroller应该指“婴儿车”。3.by what did the author think the couple were telling a lie?a.the couples expression.b.the attention to their child.c.the costumes of the couple.d.the word the man had said.答案:b提示:推理判断题。根据第一段叙述可知作者仔细地观察了婴儿车里的小孩,穿着夹克,却没有拉上拉链,而那个男子却说他想要些钱让其妻子和孩子住旅馆。再由第二段中“and if they were truly worried about their child being out of the cold,they would have at least zipped his jacket.”一句可知作者推断该夫妇在说谎的原因是他们根本不关心孩子。4.we can infer the author has learnt from the experience that .a.one should be very kind to everyoneb.anybody has a time when he needs helpc.one should do what is worth activelyd.one should guard against the bad men答案:c提示:推理判断题。根据文章最后两段可知作者对此次经历的感悟,特别是“if i give $20 to 10 people and only one of them really needs it and uses it for the right thing,it is worth it.”一句使作者意识到一个人应该积极地去做值得做的事。bwhen my sister gina was born,she had a problem with her heart.her heart was pretty bad in the beginning and she stayed in the hospital for a

afraid of swimming with them because she had never been around dolphins before.we had also never travelled that far as a family.when we got to florida,we saw where the dolphins lived.it was a place where kids with special needs like gina could come and spend time.i thought it was going to be a vacation,but it wasnt.gina had to work hard every day for a week.the trip was amazing.gina laughed and clapped(拍手) when she saw the dolphin,and the dolphin splashed(溅起水花) when it saw gina.they swam together all day.gina was able to move her body more than she normally did at home.mum and dad were proud of gina,and me too.5.we know from the text that gina .a.experienced five operations in a monthb.got along well with other childrenc.stayed in the hospital before threed.was born with a heart

the dolphinsd.learn to swim答案:a提示:推理判断题。根据第二段的“our parents wanted to take gina to a special place in florida.”,第三段的“gina had to work hard every day for a week.”以及最后一段的“gina was able to move her body more than she normally did at home.”可知,作者一家去佛罗里达是为gina治病。7.how did gina feel about swimming with dolphins at first?a.excited.b.frightened.c.angry.d.proud.答案:b提示:细节理解题。根据第二段的“gina was afraid of
