Question

【题目】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.

"It's 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.

【5】D

【解析】

试题分析：本文为记叙文。戴维因为失去了家人而非常伤心，拒绝与别人交流，“我”作为一名心理医生成功地使他恢复了正常。“我”采取的方法就是跟他下棋，让他感受到“我”理解他的痛苦。人与人的交流不只是通过语言，也可能是一个拥抱、一个哭泣时可以依靠的肩膀 、一次友好的接触或者一只耐心倾听的耳朵 。

【1】C。细节理解题。根据第一段 中的He kept walking up and down restlessly ，his face pale，and his hands shaking slightly.可知，第一次见面时，他表现得非常紧张。戴维失去了亲人，故不是“感到兴奋”或者“精力充沛地散步”，排除A项和B项。根据 His head teacher had referred him to me.以及he wrote可知，他的老师把他介绍给作者 ，但没有陪着他来，故D项错误。所以选C。

【2】A。推理判断题。根据第二段最后一句Sometimes the best thing one can do is to listen openly and sympathetically. 可知，作者准备去做一名倾听者。文章虽提到有些问题心理学也无法给出答案，但这并不能说明作者对心理学持怀疑的态度，故B项错误；根据第二段中的and which no words can describ可排除C项；通过第二段中的How could I help him？以及“有些问题心理学也无法给出答案”可知，作者不确信自己能解决戴维的问题，故排除D项。故选A。

【3】B。推理判断题。根据第五段中的Perhaps he simply needs someone to share his pain with...可知，他喜欢和作者下棋，或许是因为他需要一个人来分担他的痛苦，故B项正确。文章并未提到戴维想向作者征求建议，相反，他开始时拒绝跟作者交流，故排除A项；文中并未提及他喜欢这些画，只说他在看这些画，排除C项；由第三段中..I made sure David won once or twice.可知D项错误，故选B。

【4】A。推理判断题。由第五、六 、七段可知，与作者沉默地待了几个月之后，戴维开口跟作者说话了，之后他的生活逐渐恢复了正常，故A项正确。他现在经常和朋友们骑车，但无法得知失去家人前就喜欢 ，故排除B项；上大学还只是他的一个计划，故排除C项；他是在认识作者之后交到了学校的朋友，故D项错误。

【5】D。推理判断题。结合故事内容以及最后一段可知，是作者和他无声的交流帮助戴维恢复了正常。他的老师只起到了介绍的作用，故排除A项；作者之前和戴维并不存在友谊，故排除B项；在戴维恢复正常之后，双方才开始通信，故排除C项。
