Question

【题目】 I got to the house, but no one came out. I got out of the taxi, walked up to the door, and knocked.

“Just a minute,” answered someone. After a long time, the door opened. A small old woman stood before me. I took her bag and let her take my arm. Then we moved slowly to the taxi. She kept thanking me for my kindness. “It’s nothing,” I told her. “I just try to be nice to my passengers, because I want others to be nice to my mother, too.”

When we got in the taxi, she asked, “Could you drive through the city?” “It’s not the shortest way,” I answered. “Oh, just do it,” she said. “I’m on my way to a hospice（安养院）. I don’t have any family left.” For the next two hours, we drove through the city. She showed me a building—she and her family once lived there. Sometimes she asked me to drive slowly in front of some buildings, and she would look at them and say nothing.

We got to the hospice. I took her bag to the door. “How much should I pay you?” she asked, “Nothing,” I answered. Without thinking, I gave her a hug. “You make an old woman happy,” she said. “Thank you.”

I didn’t have any more passengers that day. I just thought about that woman. I’m happy that I helped her. It was a small thing, but it was a great moment in life.

【2】句意：为什么老太太要作者走那条路?

推理判断题。根据“She showed me a building—she and her family once lived there. ”她给我看了一座大楼——她和她的家人曾经住在那里。所以是她想看看关于她过去生活的事情。故选C。
