【题目】阅读理解
It's a Saturday morning, and I am eager to fly away.My husband and I will meet up with our son on the other side of the country to learn and explore together.Sitting now at the airport gate,my husband wanders away to stretch his legs.Moments later,he returns and whispers in my ear.I rise and follow him around the comer toward a large window facing the landing area.
On the road, Marines stand straight and the plane door is open.A white hearse(灵车)is parked nearby.A man and a soldier stand on either side of a woman,supporting her and waiting for what is to come.Airport personnel stand in reverent stillness.A few people place their hands over their hearts,as I have done.We're joined in witness,sending respect to an honorable soldier whose name we'll never know.
The woman looks heartbroken. She cries, knowing she will never hear "Mom”from her son. She'll never feel his tender embrace or enjoy his sweet peck on her cheeks.Another man's face is twisted because of the grief.His son,the tiny boy he no doubt wrestled playfully,the teen he probably taught to drive,and the son he stood so proudly by,now lives only in his memory.
Those behind the glass stay silent, reflecting on this loss, as the family and soldiers leave.Some of us women, with sorrowful expressions, move slowly away, sharing a mother's profound grief .Soon,each of us will fly off in planes and return to an ordinary life made extraordinary by this soldier's courage,by this family's sacrifice and by this love shared by all that look out of the window.

【解析】这是一篇记叙文,作者讲述了和丈夫准备坐飞机去见儿子,在候机时,目睹了一个悲痛欲绝的家庭在机场迎接阵亡儿子的灵柩的经过。
(1)考查推理判断。根据第三段中的“my husband wanders away to stretch his legs”可知丈夫是想活动一下,让自己舒服一点,故选B。
(2)考查归纳总结。根据第二段中的“We're joined in witness, sending respect to an honorable soldier whose name we'll never know”我们一起加入了人群,向不知名的尊敬的士兵表示敬意。以及最后一段中的“as the family and soldiers leave.Some of us women, with sorrowful expressions,move slowly away,sharing a mother's profound grief” 我们中的一些女性,带着悲伤的表情,慢慢走开,分享母亲的悲痛。结合这两句可归纳出作者看到个场景时是悲伤和表示尊敬的,故选A。
(3)考查推理判断。根据最后一段中的"Soon,each of us will fly off in planes and return to an ordinary life made extraordinary by this soldier's courage,by this family's sacrifice and by this love shared by all that look out of the window."很快,我们每个人会坐飞机离开并返回一个普通的生活,而这种普通的生活由于这个士兵的勇气,这个家庭的牺牲和所有那些有爱的、透过窗外观看的人们而变得不平凡起来。以及本文中作者表现出对英雄士兵的尊敬。综上所述可推断出作者高度评价了(军人及其家属。作者是去见儿子的,所以A是错的;B项说那个可敬的士兵小时候喜欢摔跤,文中没有涉及;D项说机场的人们由于事件而悲痛不已是事实但不是推断出的。故选C项。
(4)考查主旨大意。纵观全文可,作者及其丈夫在去与儿子见面的机场上见证了一个家庭在机场接去世的儿子——个阵亡的士兵的灵柩的归来。即一个阵亡的士兵和他的家人团聚。 A项我在机场看到伤心的父母。B项士兵的勇气在机场使我们感动。C项向一个可敬的士兵表示敬意。ABC都只是其中的一个细节。只有D是主旨大意。
