【題目】閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)（A、B、C和D）中，選出最佳選項(xiàng)。
In 1978, I was 18 and was working as a nurse in a small town about 270 km away from Sydney, Australia. I was looking forward to having five days off from duty. Unfortunately, the only one train a day back to my home in Sydney had already left. So I thought I'd hitch a ride (搭便車(chē)).
I waited by the side of the highway for three hours but no one stopped for me. Finally, a man walked over and introduced himself as Gordon. He said that although he couldn't give me a lift, I should come back to his house for lunch. He noticed me standing for hours in the November heat and thought I must be hungry. I was doubtful as a young girl but he assured (使……放心) me I was safe, and he also offered to help me find a lift home afterwards. When we arrived at his house, he made us sandwiches. After lunch, he helped me find a lift home.
Twenty-five years later, in 2003, while I was driving to a nearby town one day, I saw an elderly man standing in the glaring heat, trying to hitch a ride. I thought it was another chance to repay someone for the favor I'd been given decades earlier. I pulled over and picked him up. I made him comfortable on the back seat and offered him some water.
After a few moments of small talk, the man said to me, “You haven't changed a bit, even your red hair is still the same.”
I couldn't remember where I'd met him. He then told me he was the man who had given me lunch and helped me find a lift all those years ago. It was Gordon.
（1）The author had to hitch a ride one day in 1978 because ________.
A.her work delayed her trip to Sydney
B.she missed the only train back home
C.she was going home for her holidays
D.the town was far away from Sydney
（2）Which of the following did Gordon do according to Paragraph 2?
A.He helped the author find a ride.
B.He gave the author a ride back home.
C.He bought sandwiches for the author.
D.He watched the author for three hours.
（3）Why did the author offer a lift to the elderly man?
A.She recognized he was Gordon.
B.She had known him for decades.
C.She was going to the nearby town.
D.She wanted to repay the favor she once got.
（4）What does the author want to tell readers through the story?
A.Those who give rides will be repaid.
B.Good manners bring about happiness.
C.Giving sometimes produces nice results.
D.People should offer free rides to others.

【答案】
（1）B
（2）A
（3）D
（4）C
【解析】本文是一篇記敘文，作者講述了25年前自己錯(cuò)過(guò)了唯一的一趟回家的火車(chē)，她想搭便車(chē)回家但沒(méi)有人為她停車(chē)。最后一位名叫Gordon的人把自己請(qǐng)到家中吃了午飯并幫助自己找到了回家的便車(chē)。25年后的一天搭自己便車(chē)的老人竟然是那位名叫Gordon的人。
（1）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第一段中的”Unfortunately, the only one train a day back to my home in Sydney had already left. So I thought I'd hitch a ride (搭便車(chē)).“可知，作者唯一的一趟回家的火車(chē)已經(jīng)離開(kāi)，所以她想搭便車(chē)回家。選B。
（2）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段中的”I made him comfortable on the back seat and offered him some water.“可知，Gordon還主動(dòng)幫助作者找到回家的便車(chē)。故選A。
（3）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第三段中的”I thought it was another chance to repay someone for the favor I'd been given decades earlier“可知，作者認(rèn)為這是她幾十年前受到恩惠的一次回報(bào)的機(jī)會(huì)。故選D。
（4）考查寫(xiě)作意圖。根據(jù)全文內(nèi)容可知，25年前我得到Gordon的幫助，25年后Gordon又偶然地得到我的幫助。所以作者想通過(guò)這個(gè)故事告訴我們：給予有時(shí)會(huì)產(chǎn)生好的結(jié)果。故選C。

【題目】根據(jù)短文理解，選擇正確答案。
Do you often feel lonely? What do you do when you feel that way? Hide yourself away and spend your time reading, watching TV or walking around?
You might think that feeling lonely is just like feeling happy, sad or scared — that it's just one of your various moods. That is true. However, if you let yourself be lonely for too long without dealing with it, you could be making a serious mistake.
Doctors have known for some time that feeling lonely is bad for the mind. It can lead to mental health problems such as depression, stress and reduce confidence. “Being lonely means not feeling connected or cared for, but it's not about being mentally alone,” Lisa Jaremka, scientist from Ohio State University, US, told Live Science in January. And there's growing evidence that not having friends is connected with physical illness as well.
In 2006, for example, scientists studied 2,800 women who had cancer. They found that those who had few friends or family were five times more likely to die of their disease than women with many social contacts. Also, even healthy people had a better chance of falling ill if they felt left out by others, according to the BBC.
The results have scientists thinking that loneliness might hurt the immune system(免疫系統(tǒng)), which protects the body from diseases.
Hoping to prove this theory, Jaremka and her research team put volunteers(志愿者) through a stress test. During the test, volunteers were asked to make an unprepared speech in front of a group of stony-faced people. The researchers found that volunteers who said they were lonely in their daily lives felt more stress during the test. And their blood samples showed that all the stress had managed to cause harmful changes to their immune system.
“Loneliness has been thought of in many ways as a chronic stressor(慢性增壓器) — a socially painful situation that can last for quite a long time, ” explained Jaremka, who led the study.
The number of people suffering from loneliness is increasing all over the world. However, solving the problem is easier said than done. It won't work to just “tell anyone to go out and find someone to love you”, said Jaremka. “We need to create support networks.”
（1）If people feel lonely for a long time, ________.
A.they won't feel happy anymore
B.they are more mentally harmed than physically
C.they will find the feeling goes away by itself
D.they are more likely to fall ill
（2）What was the purpose of the stress test carried out by Jaremka's team?
A.To find out how people fight diseases.
B.To prove loneliness hurts people's immune systems.
C.To find out the relationship between loneliness and stress.
D.To see how people's emotions change when they give unprepared speeches.
（3）What made scientists think loneliness might make the body worse at fighting diseases?
A.Growing evidence of mental problems related to loneliness.
B.Some research results about the relationship between cancer and loneliness.
C.Some studies showing that people suffering from loneliness fell ill or died more easily than those who didn't.
D.The result of a test where volunteers were asked to make an unprepared speech.
（4）We can conclude from the article that ________.
A.loneliness has become the No. 1 killer in the world
B.loneliness is increasing due to advanced technologies
C.websites must be set up to help people deal with loneliness
D.much more work needs to be done to fight loneliness
