Question

【題目】 A woman was at the airport waiting for her flight to start boarding. She still had a lot of time, so she went to a shop and bought a book to read. While she was in the shop, she decided to buy a bag of cookies as well.

She arrived at her gate, sat down and started reading her book. She read her book so carefully that she didn’t notice what was going on around her. But she did see that a man had sat down next to her and taken one of her cookies out of the bag.

She pretended(假裝) not to notice, as she didn’t want to make a scene(當(dāng)眾大吵). But then the man took more. He kept eating the cookies until there was just one left. The man took the last cookie and broke it in half. He tapped the woman on the shoulder and held out one half to her.

The woman could not believe how much nerve (勇氣) this man had to steal (偷) all of her cookies and then offer half a cookie in return. She angrily grabbed (奪) the half-cookie out of his hand and ate it without any words.

Finally, it was time for her to board. As she went to the gate, she reached into her purse. Suddenly, she realized that her bag of cookies was still in her purse. The man had eaten his own cookies the whole time and simply wanted to share the last one with her. The woman’s face turned red with shame. So she quickly caught up with him and said, “__________.”

When we’re not paying attention to the world around us, it can be easy to misunderstand what’s happening or even become angry with others. It is better to keep our eyes open and think about every possibility when trying to understand a special situation.

文章主要講述一位女士在機場等飛機時看書太專注沒注意周圍發(fā)生的事情，誤解男士拿了自己的餅干還把最后一塊餅干分一半給自己，后來女士登機的時候才發(fā)現(xiàn)自己的餅干還在自己口袋里，最后去給男士道歉的故事。

【1】

回答一般疑問句用yes或no來回答。根據(jù)第一段“She still had a lot of time…”可知，這個女人還有很多時間，證明她很早就到機場了，所以此處是肯定回答。故填Yes, she did.

【2】

回答why提問用because引出回答。根據(jù)第二段“She read her book so attentively that she didn’t notice what was going on around her.”可知，因為這個女人認(rèn)真看書，以至于沒注意到周圍發(fā)生了什么。故填Because she read the book so carefully.

【3】

根據(jù)第三段中“The man took the last cookie and broke it in half. He tapped the woman on the shoulder and held out one half to her.”可知，這個男人把最后一塊餅干一分為二，把其中一半分給了這個女人。故填He broke the last cookie in half and shared it with the woman.

【4】

根據(jù)第四段中“The woman could not believe how much nerve (勇氣) this man had to steal (偷) all of her cookies and then offer half a cookie in return.”可知，這個女人簡直不敢相信，這個男人竟然有這么大的膽量，偷走了她所有的餅干，然后給了她半塊餅干作為回報，由此可知，此時這個女人感到很生氣。故填She felt angry.

【5】

根據(jù)第五段中“As she went to the gate, she reached into her purse. Suddenly, she realized that her bag of cookies was still in her purse.”可知，當(dāng)這個女人的手伸進口袋的時候，她意識到她的那袋餅干還在口袋里，也就是這個時候她意識到了自己的錯誤。故填When she realized that her bag of cookies was still in her purse.

【6】

該題目為開放性題目，符合題意即可。根據(jù)第五段中“As she went to the gate, she reached into her purse. Suddenly, she realized that her bag of cookies was still in her purse.The woman’s face turned red with shame.”可知，當(dāng)這個女人知道自己的餅干還在口袋的時候，她意識到自己犯錯了，她很羞愧，所以她追上這個男人是為了道歉、解釋自己沒有注意到自己周圍發(fā)生的事情或感謝這個男人分享的餅干。故填I’m so sorry./I didn’t notice what happened around me./I misunderstood you./Please forgive me and thank you for your cookie.
