Question

【題目】Recently, I happened to hear a mother and daughter in their last moments together at the airport as the daughter prepared to leave.

They hugged and the mother said “I love you and I wish you enough.” They kissed and the daughter left.

The mother walked over to the window where I sat. Standing there, I could see she was going to cry. I tried not to disturb her but she welcomed me by asking “Have you ever said goodbye to someone knowing it would be forever?”

“Yes,” I replied. “But may I know why this is the final goodbye?”

“I am ill and she lives so far away. It’s highly possible that the next trip back will be for my funeral(葬禮)” she said.

“When you were saying goodbye, I heard you say ‘I wish you enough’. May I ask what that means?”

“That’s a wish that has been handed down from past generations. My parents used to say it to everyone.” She paused for a moment and looked up as if trying to remember it in detail and she smiled even more.

“When we say ‘I wish you enough’, we want the other person to have a life filled with just enough good things to be with them”. Then turning to me, she shared the following:

“I wish you enough sun to keep your attitude bright.

“I wish you enough rain to appreciate the sun more.”

Answer 1

【答案】

【1】D

【2】A

【3】A

【4】D

【解析】試題分析：作者怎樣開始懂得“I wish you enough”的呢？本文的媽媽善良且無私，她生病就要離開這個(gè)世界了，在機(jī)場(chǎng)與女兒分別時(shí)給了女兒衷心的祝福，祝愿女兒一切都好。母愛是偉大的。

【1】D細(xì)節(jié)理解題。媽媽說這是一個(gè)永遠(yuǎn)的再見是什么意思？在她去世之前她將不會(huì)看到女兒了。據(jù)“I am ill and she lives so far away. It’s highly possible that the next trip back will be for my funeral(葬禮)” she said. 故正確答案為D.

【2】A細(xì)節(jié)理解題。關(guān)于“I wish you enough”下面哪個(gè)是正確的？這位婦人的父母過去常対別人說。據(jù)“That’s a wish that has been handed down from past generations. My parents used to say it to everyone.” 故該題正確答案為A.

【3】A判斷推理題。你認(rèn)為在文章中提到的媽媽怎么樣？善良且無私。通讀全文，故正確答案為A.

【4】D主旨大意題。這篇文章主要是關(guān)于什么的？作者怎樣開始懂得“I wish you enough”的。通讀全文且根據(jù)“When we say ‘I wish you enough’, we want the other person to have a life filled with just enough good things to be with them”. 故該題正確答案為D.
