Question

6．It was dangerously cold．A few drivers slipping and sliding off the road and back on again had cut deep ruts（车辙）in the mud．And the ruts became frozen solid．The drum of our truck's aging engine worried us．
Trees and bushes heavy with snow bent to form an icy tunnel．We inched along the scary route as Howard grasped the steering wheel（方向盘）tightly，trying to keep the truck in the ruts．We were now riding through a nightmare with no going back．I kept praying the truck would not quit．
However，the engine's coughing grew worse．We came to a bumping stop．Hot tears ran down my face．We noticed a small house off in the distance．"I will go for help．"Howard's words ruined my common sense and panic took over．We would take the children-we would walk to that house together!
But the snow was deep，and our two children，asleep in the cab，were too heavy to carry．My husband convinced me to let him go alone．If no one was home or they didn't answer the door，he would come back and we'd try to hike out to a main road．For now，it was safer in the truck．I wish I could say I have faith，but when he walked away，I was mad at the world．
It seemed as if hours had passed before I heard a familiar voice and a kind laugh of another man as they approached in the snow．The older fellow invited us to go up to the house where his wife was waiting．Two wide-awake kids moved across the seat，ready for adventure．Their voices and laughter carried in the cold night air．When we finally got close，a cheerful woman opened the door．Warm air and the smell of hot buttered popcorn and chocolate drew us in．
Relieved，my prayers were heard!

Answer 1

分析 本文主要讲了一家人在一个寒冷的风雪的夜晚，我们得到了一对老夫妇的帮助，这简直就是上帝的回应．

解答 21．B 推理判断题．根据句子If no one was home or they didn't answer the door，he would come back and we'd try to hike out to a main road．如果没有人在家，或者他们没有开门，他就会回来，我们会努力走到一条大路上去．由此可推断出当她丈夫走后，她因为担心得不到帮助而变得焦急，所以答案选B．
22．A 推理判断题．根据句子  I heard a familiar voice and a kind laugh of another man as they approached in the snow．从他听到的另一个人的和蔼的笑声，可以推测出这个男的应该是乐意帮助的，根据句子When we finally got close，a cheerful woman opened the door．当我们终于接近时，一个快乐的女人打开了门．可以推测这个女主人是很高兴帮助我们的，所以答案选A．
23．D 标题归纳题．本文主要讲了一家人在一个寒冷的风雪的夜晚，我们得到了一对老夫妇的帮助，这简直就是上帝的回应．所以D选项符合题意，故答案选D．
