Question

I arrived late one night on a business trip, so I decided to have dinner in the hotel I stayed in. As I was finishing my meal, an elderly couple came in. They were holding hands and had lovely smiles on their faces. They sat three tables from me. I was amazed at the love they showed for each other. It stuck me because it was shortly after ending a 20-year marriage and I still had pain in my heart.
My waiter was also their waiter. As I paid my bill, I asked what their bill was. He told me, and I gave him $40 to pay their bill. He asked if I knew them and I told him “No, I just wanted to repay them for the love that they were showing to each other,” and then I left.
The next day I entered the restaurant again. After I had been seated, the waiter who served me the night before told me that the strangest thing happened after I left the restaurant. When the elderly couple went to pay for their meal, they were told that it had been paid. The waiter just told them what I said. They were amazed. They looked around, asked for the bill of two young couples who were seated together, paid their bill and left.
I smiled and ordered my meal. About 45 minutes later, I finished my meal and was about to head out, but my waiter was nowhere to be found. I explained to the hostess that I needed to pay for my meal and hurry to the airport. She smiled and explained that I would not have to pay, because she felt she should pay for my bill because of the joy brought to the faces of the elderly couple and the amazement of the young couples.
When I told her that they didn’t have to do that, she said with a smile “Love creates Love.”

試題分析：文章講述的是關(guān)于愛(ài)的故事。作者見(jiàn)到一對(duì)老人非常恩愛(ài)，他被他們的愛(ài)感動(dòng)了，于是，作者替老人付了賬。老人得知后感到驚訝，并作出了同樣的事情。后來(lái)，老板娘被感動(dòng)了，她決定為作者買單。通過(guò)這個(gè)故事，作者想要表達(dá)的是愛(ài)可以在人與人之間傳遞，即使是陌生人。
小題1:根據(jù)“It stuck me because it was shortly after ending a 20-year marriage and I still had pain in my heart.”可知，作者剛剛結(jié)束了20年的婚姻，還沉浸在傷痛中，故選C。
小題2:根據(jù)第二段“I just wanted to repay them for the love that they were showing to each other”和第三段“The waiter just told them what I said. They were amazed. They looked around, asked for the bill of two young couples who were seated together, paid their bill and left.”可知，那兩位老人感到驚訝的同時(shí)，也感激作者的好意，他們于是做出了相同的事情--傳遞愛(ài)。故選B。
小題3:文章主要通過(guò)一件小事來(lái)說(shuō)明愛(ài)的力量。作者幫一對(duì)恩愛(ài)的老夫婦付賬，之后，兩位老人做出了相同的事情，他們也想把愛(ài)傳遞給他人。作者通過(guò)描述一個(gè)有趣的經(jīng)歷來(lái)證明一個(gè)道理，愛(ài)是可以在人與人之間傳遞的，排除A、B；老夫婦和兩位年輕人并不是需要幫助，排除C；故選D。
