【语篇解读】语篇类型是记叙文，主题语境是生活。文章讲述了一位百岁老人无私将

自己的智慧分享给陌生人的故事。

4．A[细节理解题。根据第一段中的“she'snowsharingwordsofwisdomforfree〞

和第三段中的“Overthepastthreemonths，hundredsofpeoplehavestoppedby，chatting

withWilkinsonliketheywereoldfriends〞可知，很多纽约人到EileenWilkinson的

办公室和她交谈。]

5．C[细节理解题。根据第六段中的“Shesaystrulylisteninggivesher

advice­givingabilityapersonaltouch〞可知，Eileen认为用心倾听让她给别人提意见

的能力展现了独特的个人风格。]

6．C[推理判断题。根据最后一段中的Wilkinson'snotslowingdownsoon，bringing

newmeaningtothesaying，“TheroadtoGrandma'shouisneverlong.〞可知，Eileen

已从与陌生人交谈中获得乐趣，她不会马上减少Facebook社交媒介上的即时聊天，由此推知

她将把自己与他人分享智慧的事情进展下去。]

7．B[推理判断题。文章主要介绍了百岁祖母与他人分享人生智慧的故事，故awi

grandmother是对EileenWilkinson的最优描述。]
