1.Compassion (同情) is a desire within us to help others.With effort,we can translate compassion into actions.An experience last weekend showed me this is true.I work part-time in a supermarket across from a building for the elderly.These old people are our main customers,and it's not hard to lose patience over their slowness.But last Sunday,one aged gentleman appeared to teach me a valuable lesson.This untidy man walked up to my register(收款機(jī))with a box of biscuits.He said he was out of cash(現(xiàn)金),had just moved into his room,and had nothing in his cupboards.He asked if we could let him have the food on trust.He promised to repay me the next day.
I couldn't help staring at him.I wondered what kind of person he had been ten or twenty years before,and what he would be like if luck had gone his way.I had a hurt in my heart for this kind of human soul,all alone in the world.I told him that I was sorry,but store rules didn't allow me to do so.I felt stupid and unkind saying this,but I valued my job.
Just then,another man,standing behind the first,spoke up.If anything,he looked more pitiable."Charge it to me,"was all he said.
What I had been feeling was pity.Pity is soft and safe and easy.Compassion,on the other hand,is caring in action.I thanked the second man but told him that was not allowed either.Then I reached into my pocket and paid for the biscuits myself.I reached into my pocket because these two men had reached into my heart and taught me compassion.

29.The aged gentleman who wanted to buy the biscuitsA.
A.hoped to have the food first and pay later

D.Obeying the rules means more than compassion.

分析 文章講述了作者在超市收銀時(shí),遇到一位貧窮又孤獨(dú)的老人,想要一份餅干,第二天來送錢.作者雖然同情他,但還是以店里有規(guī)定,拒絕了老人的要求.這時(shí)一位看起來比前一位更可憐的人主動(dòng)要為老人付賬,作者同樣拒絕了,自己掏錢為老人結(jié)了帳.在作者看來,幫助別人說起來容易做起來難,經(jīng)過努力,我們可以將愛心轉(zhuǎn)化成行動(dòng)幫助別人.

解答 29.A細(xì)節(jié)題:根據(jù)第一段中"He said he was out if cash…h(huán)e promised to repay me the next day."可知那位老人想先吃飯后付款.故選A.
30.B 細(xì)節(jié)題:根據(jù)第二段"I wondered what kind of person he had been ten or twenty years before,and wha the would be like if luck had gone his way.I had a hurt in my heart for this kind of human soul,all alone in the world,"我想知道他在10年前或是20年前究竟是怎么樣一個(gè)人呢,想知道如果沒有當(dāng)時(shí)的好運(yùn)氣,他會(huì)是什么樣呢.我為世界上這種人類靈魂孤獨(dú)的人感到心疼.可知老人又窮又孤單.故選B.
31.A 細(xì)節(jié)題:根據(jù)第二段最后一句"I felt stupid and unkind saying this,but I valued my job"我感到說這個(gè)是愚蠢而不友善的,但我珍惜我的工作.故選A.
32.C 細(xì)節(jié)題:根據(jù)最后一段"pity is soft and safe and easy.compassion is caring in action."可知幫助別人說起來容易做起來難.故選C.

點(diǎn)評(píng) 本文是一個(gè)人物故事類閱讀理解,題目涉及多道細(xì)節(jié)理解題,做題時(shí)結(jié)合原文和題目有針對(duì)性的找出相關(guān)語句進(jìn)行仔細(xì)分析,結(jié)合選項(xiàng)選出正確答案.推理判斷題也是要在抓住關(guān)鍵句子的基礎(chǔ)上合理的分析才能得出正確答案,切忌胡亂猜測(cè),一定要做到有理有據(jù).

16.Some Chinese experts advocate that compulsory education should not be replaced by any other form of teaching last week.Should compulsory education be replaced by private schooling or homeschooling?Readers of our newspaper share their ideas.
Ted 180 (Canada)
An important function of public education is to teach proper social habits and help children to see themselves as part of the community beyond their family.The private schooling cannot guarantee this.(36)B.That's why I oppose"private schooling".
HailChina!(Australia)
The government needs to make sure that private schools follow the required curriculum.If the state does not control what young people are learning then who knows what they could be taught in private schools.But there is no need to worry about homeschooling for few parents choose that.And China has done good jobs in guaranteeing the required curriculum in private schools.(37)A.
China is aware of every single child's education.
Julia(Swiss)
Private education should not be banned.It is a far better educational opportunity than public school.As a product of the public school system,I learned very little from public school and spent most of the time repeating information that had been taught in previous years.(38)D.I wish that my parents had made a wiser decision.
Maxwell996(UK)
I do not think that private education should be banned at all.Private education is mostly good.It is important for people to educate in the ways that they wish to be educated or have their kids educated,regardless of the form of schooling they choose.(39)C.
Chen Anna(China)
All students have different mental level and background.Some slow students need one-to-one class to understand the lesson better.They will achieve less in a classroom of a large number of students.On the other hand,a genius will get bored if they waste time listening to what is too simple for him in a big classroom.(40)G.

A.This reduces the chances of children slipping through the cracks
B.The children will fail to adapt to the wider society
C.That is freedom for them
D.There was no point in my public school education
E.Private education is a better choice for me
F.Public schooling shouldn't be substituted
G.So homeschooling or private education should co-exist with public education.
