Question

One day, when I was working as a psychologist in England，an adolescent boy showed up in my office. It was David. He kept walking up and down restlessly, his face pale, and his hands shaking slightly. His head teacher had referred him to me.  "This boy has lost his family," he wrote.  "He is understandably very sad and refuses to talk to others, and I'm very worried about him. Can you help?”
I looked at David and showed him to a chair. How could I help him? There are problems psychology doesn’t have the answer to, and which no words can describe. Sometimes the best thing one can do is to listen openly and sympathetically.
The first two times we met, David didn't say a word. He sat there, only looking up to look at the children's drawings on the wall behind me. I suggested we play a game of chess. He nodded. After that he played chess with me every Wednesday afternoon——in complete silence and without looking at me. It's not easy to cheat in chess, but I admit I made sure David won once or twice.
Usually, he arrived earlier than agreed， took the chess board and pieces from the shelf and began setting them up before I even got a chance to sit down. It seemed as if he enjoyed my company. But why did he never look at me?
"Perhaps he simply needs someone to share his pain with," I thought. "Perhaps he senses that I respect his suffering.”Some months later, when we were playing chess, he looked up at me suddenly.
"Is your turn," he said.
After that day, David started talking. He got friends in school and joined a bicycle club. He wrote to me a few times about his biking with some friends, and about his plan to get into university. Now he had really started to live his own life.
Maybe I gave David something. But I also learned that one——without any words——can reach out to another person. All it takes is a hug, a shoulder to cry on, a friendly touch, and an ear that listens.

解析試題分析：
【文章大意】本文是一篇記敘文。文章講述了作者用傾聽(tīng)的方法和有心理疾病的David進(jìn)行交流，最終使得他康復(fù)。文章告訴我們：有時(shí)無(wú)聲的傾聽(tīng)和交流能起意想不到的效果。
【小題1】B考查推理判斷。根據(jù)文章第一段中的He kept walking up and down restlessly, his face pale, and his hands shaking slightly.可知，David來(lái)回不停的走動(dòng)，臉色蒼白，手微微顫抖。這些現(xiàn)象表明他有些緊張。故選B。
【小題2】C考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)文章第二段中的Sometimes the best thing one can do is to listen openly and sympathetically可知，作者認(rèn)為敞開(kāi)地、同情地傾聽(tīng)別人的心聲有時(shí)是最好的事情。作者也這樣做了。故選C。
【小題3】D考查推理判斷。根據(jù)文章第五段中的"Perhaps he simply needs someone to share his pain with," I thought. "Perhaps he senses that I respect his suffering.”Some months later, when we were playing chess, he looked up at me suddenly.可知，David需要有人分享他的痛苦，他意識(shí)到我尊重他的痛苦。所以選D。
【小題4】A考查推理判斷。根據(jù)文章第七段中的He got friends in school and joined a bicycle club. He wrote to me a few times about his biking with some friends, and about his plan to get into university. Now he had really started to live his own life.可知，David由一個(gè)沉默寡言的人，變成了一個(gè)在學(xué)校有朋友，還加入了自行車俱樂(lè)部的學(xué)生。他還計(jì)劃上大學(xué)。現(xiàn)在他有了新的生活。這說(shuō)明他康復(fù)了。故選A。
【小題5】C考查推理判斷。根據(jù)文章第二段中的Sometimes the best thing one can do is to listen openly and sympathetically和最后一段中的I also learned that one——without any words——can reach out to another person.可知，是無(wú)聲的交流（傾聽(tīng)）改變了David的命運(yùn)。故選C。
