Question

【題目】 I didn't grow up in a very loving family. In fact, there are few, if any, happy memories I have of my childhood involving my family members. My happiest moments were spent with the few friends I was allowed to have. My family eventually distanced from all the neighbors. So the time came when I didn't even have neighborhood kids to play with. So, I learned to spend my time reading, discovering nature and setting and achieving small goals for myself.

There was another family in town that was quite similar to mine. They had a lot of children like my own family. They attended the same church. I always wondered what it would be like if my family were more like them. They never knew it, but I watched them and admired hem. They were happy and close — everything I wished my family could be.

Decades Later I found myself back at that very same church I had left behind. This time I was in that church for my mother's funeral. As I approached the church for the funeral, memories came flooding back home. I remembered the warm, kind smiles of that family when I was a child.

After the funeral service, I heard a familiar voice call my name. I turned around and he was there, the father of that, family I had admired when I was young. He was a church volunteer for my mother's funeral lunch. We chatted for a bit. I pointed out my happy child to him and it was at that point I realized I was raising my boy in a way I had seen him raise his own children so long ago. He didn't realize it, but my son s life has been greatly affected by him.

【1】D

【2】D

【4】B

【解析】

本文是一篇記敘文。作者從小受到一位鄰居的影響，她后來以這位鄰居為榜樣去教育自己的兒子。

【1】推理判斷題。根據(jù)第一段中My family eventually distanced from all the neighbors.可知，我的家人最終與所有的鄰居疏遠(yuǎn)了。作者的家庭跟所有的鄰居都疏遠(yuǎn)了，由此可知，作者的父母不善于跟周圍的人相處。故選D。

【2】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段中Decades Later I found myself back at that very same church I had left behind. This time I was in that church for my mother's funeral.可知，幾十年后，我發(fā)現(xiàn)自己又回到了我離開的那個教堂。這次我在那個教堂參加我母親的葬禮。由此可知，作者幾十年后回家，是參加母親的葬禮，處理私人問題。故選D。

【3】推理判斷題。根據(jù)第四段中He was a church volunteer for my mother's funeral lunch.可知，他是我母親葬禮午餐的教堂志愿者。由此可推知，那個鄰居很善良。故選C。

【4】推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段Live your life with virtue. You never know who’s watching, who you will inspire and whose life you'll change.可知，過有美德的生活。你永遠(yuǎn)不知道誰在看著你，你將激勵誰，你將改變誰的生活。由此可推知，文章主要想說明我們每個人的言行對都會對他人產(chǎn)生我們意想不到的影響。前面的故事都是為此主題鋪墊，故選B。
