A few years ago, I was dining in a restaurant with a friend who kept talking about himself, completely not aware of the fact that I was sitting there in misery. It wasn’t my friend’s talks that made me suffer. I was recovering from a broken heart, and just sitting down to dinner reminded me of my last relationship. I could have burst into tears right there at the table.
When we picked up the check, the waitress said, “ Your meal was already paid for .” My friend and I didn’t have a clue how it happened. Then I remembered a man I saw out of the corner of my eye. He was dressed in mostly white, sat down at the bar, had a beer, and stayed for maybe ten minutes. The waitress said, “Yes, the gentleman in white paid for you .” It felt like an angel was saying “I see you, honey. It’s going to be okay.”
Just last year, I was running a half-marathon. With just 1 mile to go, I was out of gas. Runners call it “hitting the wall”. I thought I couldn’t move another inch. Out of nowhere, a stranger came up to me and said, “What’s your name, sweetie? Jennifer? Okay, Jennifer, let’s go! Come on! It’s just around the corner! You can do it!” And he ran with me until I picked up my pace. I found him at the finish line to thank him for the encouragement only to learn he wasn’t even supposed to be in the race that day.
I still shake my head when I think of these momentary angels that came to me at my point of need. Do you have any experiences like these?
小题1:Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
| A．The kindness of strangers. | B．Valuable friendship . |
| C．Two special experiences . | D．Helping others is worthwhile |
| A．Because she didn’t like the dishes. |
| B．Because she quarreled with her friend |
| C．Because her friend only talked about himself. |
| D．Because she was sad for her last relationship. |
| A．being hurt by the wall | B．winning the game |
| C．taking a deep breath | D．running out of energy |
答案
小题1:A
小题2:D
小题3:D
解析
试题分析：文章大意：作者通过她在饭店吃饭时的一次经历及跑马拉松的一次经历，告诉我们，陌生人对她的帮助和鼓励，能驱散她心中的阴霾，令她精神振奋。在她需要帮助的时候，陌生人对她伸出了援手，这令她感觉那些陌生人就是天使。
小题1:主旨大意题。文章的开头以两个问句来开启读者的思维，同时告知读者，她下文将要谈的内容，是她所经历的两件事，两件陌生人给她以帮助和鼓励的事例。这两个事例是作者用来佐证她两个问句中想要表达的内容的，即陌生人出乎意料地为你做了善事。由此可知答案选A。
小题2:细节理解题。第二段“I was recovering from a broken heart, and just sitting down to dinner reminded me of my last relationship.”从broken heart 破碎的心；my last relationship可以猜到她的上一段感情结束了，她很伤心。
小题3:词义猜测题。从前面一句：I was out of gas.及后面一句：I thought I couldn’t move another inch.可以推知。作者当时是跑马拉松的，她说她out of gas应该是指她如同一辆汽车没油了，而后面一句说她一步也跑不动了，可以确认此处是说她没有精力再跑下去了。因此选D。

The show business thing worked out, of course. In her career, Mary won many awards. Only recently, when she began to write Growing Up Again, did she regret ignoring her mom, “I don"t know how to use a computer,” she admits.
Unlike her 1995 autobiography(自传), After All, her second book is less about life as an award-winning actress and more about living with diabetes (糖尿病). All the money from the book is intended for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF), an organization she serves as international chairman. “I felt there was a need for a book like this,” she says. “I didn"t want to lecture, but I wanted other diabetics to know that things get better when we"re self-controlled and do our part in managing the disease.”
But she hasn"t always practiced what she teaches. In her book, she describes that awful day, almost 40 years ago, when she received two pieces of life-changing news. First, she had lost the baby she was carrying, and second, tests showed that she had diabetes. In a childlike act, she left the hospital and treated herself to a box of doughnuts (甜甜圈). Years would pass before she realized she had to grow up ---again---and take control of her diabetes, not let it control her. Only then did she kick her three-pack-a-day cigarette habit, overcome her addiction to alcohol, and begin to follow a balanced diet.
Although her disease has affected her eyesight and forced her to the sidelines of the dance floor, she refuses to fall into self-pity. “Everybody on earth can ask, "why me?" about something or other,” she insists. “It doesn"t do any good. No one is immune (免疫的) to heartache, pain, and disappointments. Sometimes we can make things better by helping others. I"ve come to realize the importance of that as I"ve grown up this second time. I want to speak out and be as helpful as I can be.”
小题1:Why did Mary feel regretful?
| A．She didn"t achieve her ambition. |
| B．She didn"t take care of her mother. |
| C．She didn"t complete her high school. |
| D．She didn"t follow her mother"s advice. |
| A．had two books published |
| B．received many career awards |
| C．knew how to use a computer |
| D．supported the JDRF by writing |
| A．living with diabetes | B．successful show business |
| C．service for an organization | D．remembrance of her mother |
| A．lost control of herself | B．began a balanced diet |
| C．tried to get a treatment | D．behaved in an adult way |
| A．Mary feels pity for herself. |
| B．Mary has recovered from her disease. |
| C．Mary wants to help others as much as possible. |
| D．Mary determines to go back to the dance floor. |
“Oh?” Mom said, “that"s Mama"s quilt.”
I the quilt. It looked a group of school children had it together: irregular designs, childish pictures, a crooked on the right.
“Grandmother made this?” I said, . My grandmother was a at making quilts. This didn"t certainly look like any of the quilts she had made.
“Yes, right before she died. I brought it home last year and made some ,” she said. “I’m still working on it. See, this is I’ve done so far.”
I looked at it more closely. She had made straight a crooked line. At the center of the quilt, she had stitched a piece of cloth those words: “My mother made many quilts. She didn"t get all line . But I think this is beautiful. I want to see it finished. Her last quilt.”
“Oh, this is so nice, mom,” I said. It to me that by completing my grandmother’s quilt, my mother was her own mother. I realized I held in my hands a family . It started with the loving hands of one woman, and continued with the loving hands of another, two generations.

The weather was fine. But the higher they drove, the more slippery the road became. Rounding a sharp U-turn, Andersen saw a heavy truck off the road and immediately hit his brakes. In a minute, the car was going at 25 miles per hour down the mountain before falling down from a ten-foot dam into the extremely cold Logan River.
The crash had broken a few windows, and within seconds, the car was filled with water. “It was frightening that we were going fast into deep water,” remembers Andersen, a soft-spoken manager.
Having lost all sense of direction, Andersen began to search the freezing water for the kids. Mia had been right next to him in the front seat; now, in the blackness, he couldn’t find her. “I thought, if I don’t get out, maybe none of us are going to get out.” Andersen got out of his seat belt, swam through a broken window, and, deeply and quickly, breathed air at the surface. That’s when he saw a group of men, about ten in all, appear at the top of the dam. One after another, they rushed down into the water. Helping onto safety all the three children, they began to shout at the father, “Who else is in the car？”
Andersen says respectfully, “It was like the sight of angels.”

So the man decided to help the butterfly. He cut off the remaining bit of the cocoon so that the butterfly could come out easily. But to his surprise, the butterfly got a heavy body and very small wings when it came out of the cocoon.
The man continued to watch the butterfly because he expected that the body would grow smaller at any moment and the wings would become larger and be able to fly. But neither happened. In fact, the butterfly spent the rest of its life crawling（爬）around with a heavy body and small wings. It was never able to fly.
The man was in his kindness, but he did not understand the nature rules. Before the butterfly came out of the cocoon, fluid（流体）from its body must be forced into its wings, and then it would be ready for flying. It must have a hard struggle to get through the small opening to get its freedom from the cocoon.
Sometimes struggles are exactly what we need in our life. If God allowed us to go through our life without any difficulties, it would make us fail. We would not be as strong as we could have been; we could never fly.
小题1:What was the butterfly doing at the beginning of the story?
| A．It was trying to make a cocoon for itself. |
| B．It was struggling to get out of its cocoon. |
| C．It was flying among the trees in the forest. |
| D．It was crawling around quietly on the ground. |
| A．to take the butterfly home |
| B．to help the butterfly come out easily |
| C．to kill the butterfly |
| D．to stop the butterfly growing bigger |
| A．patient but cruel | B．careful and wise | C．kind but unwise | D．brave and funny |
| A．Struggles are sometimes necessary in our life |
| B．Nothing is difficult if we put our heart into it |
| C．Every good deed will come back with a good result |
| D．The greatest happiness in the world is to help others |
| A．The love for the cocoon. | B．The joy of helping each other |
| C．The lesson of the cocoon | D．The expectation for the butterfly |
