Question

The first moment came when I was in the local dollar store. There was an older woman in front of me just wrapping(包裹) up her goods.   1.   

    Before I could even offer to help, the young cashier gave her a big smile. She said, “Oh, don’t worry about it,” and sent the woman on her way.

    As I came up she said, “It’s only a few cents. I can’t make a big deal out of it.” I responded, “Here’s the seventeen cents.   2.    In this way your cash won’t be short.”

      3.  We passed a young man whose arms and face were covered in tattoos (纹身). He wore torn clothes and sat on the sidewalk with a sign that said “Homeless—Hungry—Sick.”

    Now as we passed I was thinking “Junkie (有毒瘾者)”.    4.    But, as we went a little further, I said to myself, “Who am I to judge? I should just put something in his paper cup.”

    At the same moment my son said, “That man is homeless, hungry and sick. I want to help him.”

    I gave him some money and told him he could put it in the cup. As I watched the young man gave my son a big smile and said, “Thank you!” My son told him, “No problem.” When my son came back to me he said, “That was good. Now he can get better.”

     5.   And, once again, I learned that children are often our best role models for the acceptance of others.

A. You did a really nice thing.

B. It was an automatic reaction (自动反应).

C. His sign says he needs more clothes.

D. The rate (几率) of people giving her money is low.

E. Just two little moments, but they taught me lots.

F. The second moment came when I was walking along with my son.

G. When she came to pay for them she discovered that she was seventeen cents short.

试题分析：

【文章大意】本文是一篇故事。文章通过对我见到的两个时刻的描述，我发现有时孩子是我们接收别人的最好的榜样。

1.G考查上下文的语境理解及理解推理。根据后文Before I could even offer to help, the young cashier gave her a big smile. She said, “Oh, don’t worry about it,”可知，那位老妇人钱不够，在我主动帮助之前，出纳员让她走了。所以选G；

2.A考查上下文的语境理解及理解推理。根据上下文“Here’s the seventeen cents.   3.62    In this way your cash won’t be short.”可知，我拿出17美分，这样你的现金就不少了。可知中间选A；

4.F考查上下文的语境理解及理解推理。根据前文第一段中的The first moment came when I was in the local dollar store.可知选F。这是并列关系；

5.B考查上下文的语境理解及理解推理。根据前文第一段中的But, as we went a little further, I said to myself, “Who am I to judge? I should just put something in his paper cup.”可知，看到那个人无家可归---饥饿---有病，我自动的反应就是：应该在他的纸杯里放些东西。故选B。

6.E考查上下文的语境理解及理解推理。根据全文可知这是文章的总结段，通过前面两个时刻表明：孩子常常是接收别人的榜样。

考点：考查上下文的语境理解及逻辑推理。
