Question

7．Busy as I am every day，I always open my computer and check my email．Most of the time I am simply doing finger exercises，another form of piano practice without beautiful tones．Sometimes，however，I receive a gift，reminding me of the gifts in my life．The following passage is one of those gifts．
Peter Jones is a 92-year-old，short，calm and proud man．Every morning he is fully dressed by eight o'clock，with his hair fashionably combed and face perfectly shaved even though he is unable to see anything．He would move to a nursing home today．His wife of 70 years old has recently passed away，making the move necessary．
After hours of waiting patiently in the entrance hall of the nursing home，he smiled sweetly when told his room was ready．As he moved his walking stick skillfully to the elevator，the nurse provided a visual description of his tiny room．"I love it，"he stated with enthusiasm．"Mr．Jones，you haven't been the room，"said the nurse．
"That doesn't have anything to do with it，"he replied．"Happiness is something you decide on ahead of time．Whether I like my room or not doesn't depend on how the furniture is arranged…it's how I arrange my mind．I have already decided to love it． It's a decision I make every morning when I wake up．I have a choice：I can spend the day in bed complaining of the difficulty I have with the parts of my body that no longer work，or get out of bed and be thankful for the ones that do．"
Each day is a gift，and as long as we are alive．We'll focus on the new day and all the happy memories we've stored just as Mr．Jones does．

Answer 1

分析 本文通过琼斯先生对待生活的乐观态度告诉我们每一天都是上帝给我们的礼物，只要我们还活着，我们将专注于新的一天，和我们存储的所有美好的回忆，就像琼斯先生所做的一样，我们都要乐观对待．

解答 46．A 细节理解题．根据文章第二段的前两句"Peter Jones is a 92-year-old，short，calm and proud man．Every morning he is fully dressed by eight o'clock，with his hair fashionably combed and face perfectly shaved even though he is unable to see anything．"可知他的穿着很整洁，但是眼睛已经看不见了．故A正确．
47．D 推理判断题．根据文章第3段的第2、3两句"As he moved his walking stick skillfully to the elevator，the nurse provided a visual description of his tiny room．"I love it，"he stated with enthusiasm．"可知他很喜欢养老院给他提供的房间，说明他是很满意的．故D正确．
48．B 推理判断题．根据文章第4段的"Whether I like my room or not doesn't depend on how the furniture is arranged…it's how I arrange my mind．I have already decided to love it．"可知这里的it就是指前面一句中的my room．琼斯在来之前就做出了决定要真正的喜欢这个房间．故B正确．
49．A 主旨大意题．根据文章主题段最后一段"Each day is a gift，and as long as we are alive．We'll focus on the new day and all the happy memories we've stored just as Mr．Jones does"可知本文通过琼斯先生对待生活的乐观态度告诉我们每一天都是上帝给我们的礼物，我们都要乐观对待．故A正确．
