题文

Just recently I had been wondering if there was much point in doing little acts of kindness. So often they get   36 , and occasionally they come back to bite you! Then, just last week, after a long travel, I found mylf   37   at a bus station. The bus was four hours late! So, I guess I wasn’t in a good   38 . That’s when a woman asked me if I had any spare   39   to help her get a bus ticket.“Oh, sure,” I said sarcastically (挖苦地). “How much would you like?” As I spoke, I mentally kicked mylf for my  40   and reached into my bag for some money. As I handed her five dollars, I heard low sounds from her stomach becau of real    41 . I reached back into my bag and brought out a   42   I had bought earlier. I handed it to her with a(n)   43   that I hoped would make up for my earlier tone of voice. Getting a   44   look at her now, I realized she was extremely tired, like she had had veral months of   45   days! As she took the food, a look of   46   washed over her. In return, she tried to give me a Milwaukee bus ticket! I don’t live in Milwaukee and the ticket will probably   47   be ud, but I took it. A few minutes later she came back over, apologized, and told me she was still  48   of five dollars. I took some singles out of my bag and slipped a twenty in there as well.   49 , the voice in my head told me I was being a fool.Five minutes later she came back again and tried to   50   my twenty. When I said it was for her so she could get something el to   51 , and that I was completely rious and I wasn’t taking it   52  , she started crying and hugged me. From now on, when I wonder if it is   53   trying to help someone, I will remember that woman. Maybe I am really making a   54   for someone. So, sure, sometimes my efforts might not be noticed, and sometimes they might come back to bite me, but they might actually   55   another human being!小题1:A．ignoredB．appreciatedC．acknowledgedD．forgiven小题2:A．examined B．trappedC．confudD．delayed小题3:A．habitB．placeC．moodD．situation小题4:A．change B．timeC．handD．energy小题5:A．appearanceB．attitudeC．lfishness D．experience小题6:A．painB．anxietyC．hungerD．fear小题7:A．souvenirB．ticketC．giftD．cake小题8:A．shoutB．smileC．apologyD．prai小题9:A．quickB．gentleC．goodD．cold小题10:A．darkB．toughC．mysteriousD．special小题11:A．reliefB．regretC．doubtD．anger小题12:A．onceB．often C．sometimes D．never小题13:A．ashamedB．awareC．shortD．proud小题14:A．EventuallyB．HoweverC．ThereforeD．Besides小题15:A．return B．showC．shareD．earn小题16:A．doB．tradeC．addD．eat小题17:A．awayB．outC．backD．over小题18:A．hardB．funC．ulessD．worth小题19:A．differenceB．profitC．decisionD．suggestion小题20:A．exciteB．helpC．educateD．inspire 题型：未知难度：其他题型

考点

据考高分专家说，试题“Just recently I had .....”主要考查你对 [人生感悟类阅读 ]考点的理解。 人生感悟类阅读

人生感悟类阅读的概念：

生活感悟类的文章就是指能给人心灵以启迪，使人从中受到教育的文章。这类文章的体裁可以是记叙文，如生活中一些感人故事或情感故事，有点类似心灵鸡汤一样的短文。

生活感悟类阅读解题指导：

一、文章特点： 生活感悟类的文章就是指能给人心灵以启迪，使人从中受到教育的文章。这类文章的体裁可以是记叙文，如生活中一些感人故事或情感故事，有点类似心灵鸡汤一样的短文。有时故事的结尾会有一句“点睛之笔”，点出全文的中心思想，就像《伊索寓言》里的寓言一样。还可能是夹叙夹议的哲理散文或生活随笔。散文随笔通常会阐述一种朴素易懂，耳熟能详的人生道理或宝贵品质。文章的结构和议论文类似，一般是总分总或总分结构。每段首句或尾句为主题句（论点），其它句子围绕主题展开论述（论据），论证方法多种多样，或举例，或引用名言，或正反对照等。二、解题技巧：针对生活感悟类文章的特点，做这类文章的完形填空时，要特别注意以下几点：1、重点理解全文的首句。如果是记叙文，找出when，where，who，what等基本要素。如果是散文随笔，充分理解文章的中心句—全文的主题。2、阅读全文的结尾段或结尾句，有助于理解文章所阐述或蕴含的哲理、感悟或忠告等。3、调动自己的背景知识和情感。这类文章不会讲大道理也不会涉及到一些很专业的知识技术领域，而是谈一些小事和简单的道理，所以如果读者能和作者产生感情上的共鸣，读者会更好地把握作者的意图态度，从而提高做题的准确度。因此，考生在平时要做一个有心人，即用心去感悟生活中发生的小事，思考人生的一些基本道理，多阅读一些短小精悍的美文，多写写自己的心情故事和对生活学习的感悟。只有平时多用心，做题时才能调动自己的背景知识和情感。
