Question

【題目】根據(jù)下列短文內(nèi)容，選擇正確答案。
Twenty years ago, I drove a taxi for a living. Once at midnight, an old lady in her 80s took my taxi. She gave me an address, and then asked, "Could you drive through downtown?"
"It's not the shortest way," I answered quickly.
"Oh, I don't mind," she said. "I'm in no hurry. I'm on my way to a hospice (臨終關(guān)懷醫(yī)院）. I don't have any family left. The doctor says I don't have very long time."
I quietly shut off the meter. "What route would you like me to take?" I asked.
For the next two hours, we drove through the city. She showed me the building where she had once worked, the neighborhood where she and her husband had lived, the place where she danced as a girl. As the sun was rising, she asked me to go to the address she had given me.
"How much do I owe you?" she asked, reaching into her purse.
"Nothing," I said.
"You have to make a living," she answered.
"There are other passengers."
"You gave an old woman a little moment of joy," she said. "Thank you."
I drove into the fine morning light. Behind me, a door shut. It was the sound of the closing of a life. I drove aimlessly（漫無目的地），lost in thought. For the rest of that day, I could hardly talk. What if that woman had gotten an angry driver, or one who was impatient to end his shift? What if I had refused to take the run?

【解析】短文大意：短文描述一個出租車司機在二十年前的一個真實的事情。一天凌晨，接待了一位老人，她的要求是環(huán)視全城，每到一個她熟悉的地方，她都會講述以前的事情，后來司機才知道，原來她的生命就要結(jié)束了，因此是想再看一看這熟悉的地方。最后司機并沒有收費，而且還送給老人一個擁抱。
(1) B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。這位老婦人為什么環(huán)視這座城市？閱讀全文得知，她遇到一個熟悉的地方，就請司機慢行，并且還講以前的事情。原文是她的生命很短暫了，她想在最后的時刻看一看這些地方，故選B項。
(2) A細(xì)節(jié)理解題。出租車司機為什么沒有向她要錢？分析句意：老人問多少錢，司機說不要錢了。最后一句話也體現(xiàn)出司機的用心。 Almost without thinking, I gave her a hug(擁抱). She held on me and said, "You gave an old woman a little moment of joy."句意： 幾乎想也沒想，我給了她一個擁抱。她對我說，"你給了一個老婦人片刻的歡樂。"從中充分說明，司機想幫助她，故選A項。
(3) B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。從這個故事中我們學(xué)到了什么？通過對全文的理解，我們從中明白一點，一個善良的舉動能帶給人們很大的快樂，故選B項。
