【題目】根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容的理解,選擇正確答案。
I didn't think I had a passion(激情). I would sit in front of the TV all day, thinking about nothing but the next show. It was not long ago that I first learned how important having a passion is to life.
That day I went with my mum to drive my sister to the gym. I was bored. Then, as my mum stopped at a red light, someone on the side of the road caught my eye(吸引我的世界). It was a man dressed in rags (衣衫襤褸). He was homeless. That didn't interest me, for I had seen many like him before.
But in some ways he was different. This man was not sitting down with a sad expression(表情). He had a radio in his hand and was dancing happily to the music. The radio seemed to be the most precious(珍貴) thing he had.
"Mum, why does that man have a radio even thought(盡管) he's homeless?" I asked.
"He bought it," she replied. I was still unable to understand.
"But if he's homeless, why doesn't he use the money to buy food or clothes? He wasted it on something he doesn't need."
"Well, Sarah, sometimes food and clothes aren't the most important things. We need happiness, too."
The man must care too much about music to buy a radio instead of food clothes. I soon realized(意識到) that happiness is the key to life. Without it, there's nothing to look forward to.
Since then I've never gone a day without thinking of what's truly important. A home, a meal, clothes—these things are only part of the picture. What's often forgotten is that we all need a pleasure, a light in a dark day. We all need a passion.
(1)How would Sarah spend her days long ago?
A.She watched TV all day.
B.She used to read a lot.
C.She did nothing but thinking.
D.She was always sleeping.
(2)Who caught Sarah's eye when her mum stopped the car at a red light?
A.A man dressed in rags.
B.A man dressed in new clothes.
C.A man sitting down with a sad expression.
D.A man singing happily to the music.
(3)Why was the man different?
A.He wore new clothes.
B.He was sitting with a sad expression.
C.He was homeless.
D.He lived an active life though he was very poor.
(4)What did Sarah do after she understood the fact?
A.She thought all day without doing anything.
B.She bought a radio just like the man's.
C.She had a passion with everything from then on.
D.She always danced to the music on the radio.
(5)What can we learn from the passage?
A.Sometimes food and clothes are the most important things in our life.
B.Happiness is the key to life and it is what we are looking forward to.
C.Music is more important than food or clothes.
D.Money is the most important thing for a person.
【答案】
(1)A
(2)A
(3)D
(4)C
(5)B
【解析】
(1)A 細(xì)節(jié)理解。從I would sit in front of the TV all day, thinking about nothing看出作者以前常常坐在電視前看一天的電視而不考慮任何事情,故選A。
(2)A 細(xì)節(jié)理解。從文章的第二段someone on the side of the road caught my eye(吸引我的世界)以及下面的解釋:It was a man dressed in rags 可知A答案正確。
(3) D 細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第三段首句說But in some ways he was different. (他在某些方面與眾不同),然后到下面的This man was not sitting down with a sad expression(表情). He had a radio in his hand and was dancing happily to the music可知他很樂觀很開心,這就是他的不同之處,故選D。
(4) C推理判斷。作者從這個人身上感受到的就是對生活一定要有激情,生活才能擁有幸福感。從I soon realized(意識到)that happiness is the key to life可知答案選C。
(5) B 細(xì)節(jié)理解。從I soon realized(意識到)that happiness is the key to life. Without it, there's nothing to look forward to可知答案。此題是文章全文的主旨所有,告訴我們活著幸福才是生活的關(guān)鍵。

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.
