People in communities have slowly been pushed apart over the years,mostly because people simply aren’t taking the time to say a simple “hello”.After considering this phenomenon,I decided I was going to the way I was doing things.

My came one morning when I was in the community library . I passed by a girt who her books out of her locker(夾子).Thinking like most that someone else would help her pick them up,I continued my way.However,when I had to because I stupidly forgot my book,I noticed she had just finished packing them up by herself.No one had stopped to her.

“OK,”I thought to myself,“this is where I should have changed.”

My best opportunity came a few days later when I saw a man by himself waiting for the library to open, so I sat down next to him and began a .It was difficult to get started,and even when I had to say goodbye,almost every from my new friend had a tone(語氣)of doubt in it.And who could blame him?

People aren’t used to making an chat with a stranger.But a change,no matter how it is needed,doesn’t just happen.It takes people like us to make it possible.I you to take a small step out of your comfort zone and try to make someone’s day a little brighter. Together,we can really make society come as a whole.

試題分析:文章通過作者記敘自己在社區(qū)圖書館的經(jīng)歷,來勸告人們通過嘗試與陌生人交流來增進彼此之間的關(guān)系,符合了當下“和諧社會”的大環(huán)境。

1.A考查動詞辨析 A.change改變;B.explain解釋;C.1earn學(xué)習(xí);D.show展示;根據(jù)文義,作者在思考了社區(qū)內(nèi)人與人之間距離逐漸疏遠這一現(xiàn)象后,決定改變之前的行為。值得注意的是,后文即對作者的行為進行描述,第三段的最后一詞即為change,符合前后對應(yīng)原則。

2.D 考查名詞辨析及語境理解。A.trouble困難;B.doubt懷疑;C.wish愿望;D.opportunity機會;句意:一天早上,當我在社區(qū)圖書館的時候,我的……出現(xiàn)了。可以通過理解得出答案,但也可以簡單地按照完形名詞解題法尋找重復(fù),第四段第三個詞即為答案。

3.B考查動詞辨析 A.took帶來;B.dropped 掉落;C.got 得到;D.pulled拖;對應(yīng)后文pick up,可知小女孩之前是書掉落,選dropped。

4.A 考查動詞短語辨析A.go back 回去;B.stand by支持;C.come out出來;D.turn up出現(xiàn);根據(jù)文義,作者后來發(fā)現(xiàn)沒人幫助小女孩,說明作者必定重新返回原來的地方,故選A項。

5.C考查動詞辨析 A.please請;B.greet問候;C.help幫助;D.praise表揚;前文someone else和后文的no one對應(yīng),所以動作也應(yīng)該對應(yīng),所以選help。故選C項。

6.A考查動詞辨析 A.sitting 坐;B.walking走;C.riding騎;D.running跑;后文so是解題點,說明作者的動作也和一位男士的動作一致,故選sitting,故選A項。

7.D 考查名詞辨析A.discussion討論;B.lesson課;C.report報告;D.conversation對話;尋找重復(fù)后發(fā)現(xiàn),第44題后面一個詞chat即為本題答案,因此選chat的同義詞conversation,故選D 項。

8.C 考查名詞辨析A.joke 玩笑;B.cry哭;C.response回應(yīng);D.story故事;句意:我的新朋友的每個……中都顯示出懷疑的語氣。joke,cry和story在文中均未提及,直接排除,選response,故選C項。

9.B考查形容詞辨析 A.unchangeable難以改變的;B.Unprepared未準備好的;C.unforgettable難忘的; D.unfinished 未完成的;對于一個陌生人,人們并不習(xí)慣于進行……的交談。此句是由前文作者對于陌生人的反應(yīng)而總結(jié)出來的。前文作者對陌生人的交談很不順利,如何開始、如何結(jié)束都顯得十分困難,因此本題應(yīng)選擇與“困難”相近的詞。縱觀備選項,unprepared(未準備好的,即興的)較符合文義,故選B項。

10.A 考查副詞辨析A.desperately拼命的;B.frequently流暢地;C.simply簡單地;D.widely廣泛地;句意:和陌生人交談的方式的改變無論是……的需要,它都不會發(fā)生。此題單純從文義理解比較困難,建議用排除法。frequently, simply, widely這3個選項均不是文章討論的內(nèi)容,可以排除,剩下答案desperately(十分,非常地)修飾這種需要的迫切程度,故選A項。

11.D 考查動詞辨析A.a(chǎn)llow允許;B.warn警告;C.order 命令;D.a(chǎn)dvise建議;最后一段作者針對與陌生人疏遠這種情況,建議人們努力改善,故選D項。

12.D考查形容詞辨析 A.1ater 晚的;B.straighter 直接的;C.closer近的;D.Slower慢的;對應(yīng)第一段的apart,此處應(yīng)選擇相對應(yīng)的反義詞closer,故選D項。
