文章讲述了作者在一个工作场合遇到了一个讨人喜欢的女人,这个女人讲述了她爸爸做好事精神对自己的影响。
【详解】
推理判断题。
由第二段中的“Itwasrefreshingtohearthat,andIenjoyedlisteningandlearning.(听到这些让人耳目一新,我很喜欢听和学。
)”可知,作者在听那位女士讲她的童年往事时觉得很耳目一新,可得出作者很感兴趣,而且听她的故事作者觉得很快乐。
故选D项。
细节理解题。
由第四段中的“Hetoldthemthathehadgoodlegsandarms,anddidnotneedthismoney.Hetoldthemtogivethemoneytopeoplewhocouldnotwork,topeoplewhoreallyneededit.(他告诉他们,他四肢健全,不需要这笔钱。
他告诉他们把钱给那些不能工作的人,给那些真正需要钱的人。
)”可知,那位父亲之所以把支票退回去,是因为他认为自己肢体健全,不需要这笔钱,而有人更需要这些支票。
故选C项。
由倒数第二段中的“Frommycommunicationwithher,itwasveryobviousthatherfather’ssamesweetspirithadbeenpasseddowntothiswoman,andtoherfamily.(从我和她的交流中,很明显,她父亲同样甜美的精神已经传给了这个女人,传给了她的家人。
)”可知,作者发现这位女士的父亲将自己的精神传给了女儿,说明那位女士的父亲对她产生了非常好的影响。
由最后一段“Hearingthisstorywassorefreshingtomysoul.Ihopeitisthesametoyoutoo.(听到这个故事让我心旷神怡。
我希望你也一样。
)”和结合上文可知,女士父亲受伤,但伤好后,拒绝了公司的支票,说把支票留给需要的人,这种做好事的美好精神给女士产生了非常好的影响,这个故事让作者觉得好,可得出作者写这篇文章的目的就是希望大家从美好的行为中受到鼓舞。
故选B项。

本文是一篇记叙文。
文章主要讲述在作者13岁的时候,同哥哥和父亲进行了一次735英里的自行车旅行,在旅行中发生了意外,作者救下了他的哥哥,从而让作者悟出一个道理:
认真的对待自己所做的事情,听从自己的直觉和内心。
根据文章“WhenIwas13yearsold,Iwentona735-milecyclingtripwithmybrotherandfather.WewereallkeencyclistsandIcansayIfeltlikeIwasbornonabike.Myfatherwasaprofessionalcyclist,andwantedtoshowus,histwinsons,theworkofthetradeandbondwithus.”(当我13岁的时候,我和我的哥哥和父亲进行了一次735英里的自行车旅行。
我们都是自行车爱好者,我可以说我感觉我天生就是骑自行的料。
我的父亲是一名职业自行车手,他想让我们,他的双胞胎儿子,看看这个行业的工作和与我们的联系。
)可知,作者的父亲期望能从自行车旅行中让他的儿子们看看这个工作的性质,并且和儿子们建立联系,一起度过一些时光,故选A。
根据第三段“Onenight,afterperhapsaweekintothetrip,wewereonourlastlegs(路程)gettingtoacampsite,andgoingdownalargehill.Itwasrainingmoderatelyandwewerecoastingdownthehillineagerdelighttotakearestfromgoingupamountainwithallofourgearandsorelegs.”(大概在旅行了一个星期后的一个晚上,我们在去露营地的最后一段路上,走下一座大山。
雨下得不大,我们带着所有的装备和酸痛的双腿从山上滑下来,急切地想休息一下。
)和第四段“Suddenly,mybrother’sfronttireslippedintherain,andheslidintothemiddleoftheroad.”(突然,我哥哥的前轮在雨中打滑,他滑到了路中间。
)可知,事故发生时作者他们走的是山路,由于下了雨,路很滑,所以哥哥的前轮在雨中打滑,导致哥哥摔倒。
故推断这次事故的可能原因是下山的路太滑了,故选C。
根据最后一段“MybrothersaysIwasincrediblybrave,butIthinkwedowhatweknowisright.…Lifeanddeathoftenswinginthebalancebetweenwhatseemsnaturalandrational.”(我哥哥说我非常勇敢,但我认为我们做自己认为正确的事。
我认为人在危难的时候应该听从自己的直觉,而不是理智地看待困境。
如果我当时考虑到我那天晚上在做什么,我哥哥可能已经被从这个世界上带走了。
生与死常常在看似自然与理性之间摇摆不定。
)可知,通过这次事故,作者悟出了一个道理就是要认真的对待自己所做的事情,听从自己的直觉和内心,这也是我们从这篇文章学到的,故选D。
