Question

【題目】 As a boy I was always small for my age. I was also five years younger than one of my brothers and seven years younger than the other. As a result, I often felt left out when their friends came over to play. I was either too small or too young for whatever they were doing and they didn't want their younger brother listening to their conversations either. More often than not I found myself outside playing alone and feeling forgotten.

I remember one spring afternoon feeling especially lonely as I sat in the yard behind our house. We lived miles from town and I hardly saw my own friends outside of school. I heard my brothers laughing from inside the house and felt a single tear coming down my cheek. At that moment I saw a large brown dog walking over to me. He looked happy and his tail was wagging as well. Even though (盡管) he didn't know me he greeted me like a long lost friend, licking (舔) my chin and sitting beside me on the spring grass. It must have been at least an hour that I patted and talked to this four-legged angel (天使). He let me pour out all my troubles and shared my deepest thoughts before he kissed my cheek goodbye and ambled off either to Heaven or his home. I went back inside feeling happy, knowing that no matter what life may hold I was loved. Now over 40 years later I still remember that angel with a smile.

I believe that God sent him at that moment of sadness to remind me just how much he loved me. There is nothing more important than knowing we are loved. When we are loved, we will learn to love others. Learning to love helps us to understand ourselves and other people better.

Answer 1

【答案】

【1】C

【2】D

【3】B

【解析】

句意：文章講述作者小時候因為是最小的，經(jīng)常感覺很孤單，被遺忘了，但是遇到一只狗之后，他感受到自己是被愛的。

【1】詞義猜測題。根據(jù)文中“As a result, I often felt left out when their friends came over to play.” 因此，當他們的朋友來玩的時候，我經(jīng)常感到被冷落。可知，帶下劃線的短語“left out”在中文中很可能是“被冷落的”的意思。故答案為C。

【2】細節(jié)理解題。從文章第二段的句子“Even though he didn"t know me he greeted me like a long lost friend，licking my chin and sitting beside me on the spring grass” 詩歌盡管他不懂我，但他像一個久違的朋友一樣問候我，舔舐我的下巴，坐在我身旁的春草上�？芍�作者將自己的煩惱和想法都和這條狗說了，因為狗對他很友好，故答案為D。

【3】寫作意圖題。章最后一段點明作者的意圖“There is nothing more important than knowing we are loved．” 沒有什么比知道我們被愛著更重要的了�？芍�，他是想表明知道自己被愛是很重要的，故答案為B。
