Question

【題目】閱讀理解
My husband and I had been married nearly twenty-two years when I acquired Stevens-Johnson syndrome, a disorder where my immune（免疫的）system responded to a virus by producing painful blisters. Although my long-term evaluation was good, I, who had been so fiercely independent, rapidly became absolutely helpless.
My husband, Scott, stepped up to the plate, taking care of kids and cooking dinners. He also became my personal caretaker, applying the medicine to all of my blisters because my hands couldn’t do the job. Needless to say, I had negative emotions, bouncing from embarrassment to shame caused by total reliance on someone other than myself.
I recovered from my illness, but I couldn’t seem to recover from the thought that I loved my husband less than he loved me. This seeming distinction in our love continued to annoy me for the year following my illness.
Then recently Scott and I went on a long bike ride. He’s an experienced cyclist; I’m quite the green hand. At one point with a strong headwind and sharp pain building in my tired legs, I really thought I couldn’t go any further. Seeing me struggle, Scott pulled in front of me and yelled over his shoulder, “Stay close behind me.” As I followed his steps, I discovered that my legs quit burning and I was able to catch my breath. My husband was pulling me along-again.
I pray my husband will always be strong and healthy. But if he should ever become the struggling one, whether on a bike ride or with an illness, I trust Ill be ready to call out to him, Stay close behind me--my turn to pull you along.

Answer 1

【答案】
（1）A
（2）C
（3）B
（4）C
【解析】這是一篇記敘文，作者得病后，她的丈夫一直照顧她，鼓勵(lì)和支持她，給她幫助和力量；作者最后也發(fā)出感慨，倘若有一天角色互換，她也會(huì)同樣給她的丈夫支持和力量。

（1）A細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)最后一段最后一句“I, who had been so fiercely independent, rapidly became absolutely helpless.” 可知，文章作者曾經(jīng)十分獨(dú)立，但是在得病后變得很無助，A選項(xiàng) “She lost the previous independence”意為“她失去了之前的獨(dú)立”，符合題干，故A選項(xiàng)正確。B選項(xiàng)“failed to get the medical treatment”意為“沒能得到治療”，C選項(xiàng)“Her marriage was in a terrible state”意為“她的婚姻狀況很糟糕”，D選項(xiàng)“suffered from mental disorder”意為“患有精神病”，均不符合文意，故排除B、C、D。

（2）C推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段“stepped up to the plate（開始行動(dòng)）, taking care of kids and cooking dinners”和 “became my personal caretaker（看護(hù)）”可推知作者的丈夫在作者得病后照顧家庭，看護(hù)生病的作者，故選C“Family-centered（顧家的）”。選項(xiàng)A中的“Impatient（沒有耐心的）”，選項(xiàng)B中的“Independent（獨(dú)立的）”以及選項(xiàng)D中的“Career-centered（以事業(yè)為中心的）”在原文均沒有提及，故排除A，B，D。

（3）B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段“Seeing me struggle, Scott pulled（拉） in front of me and yelled over his shoulder, “Stay close behind me（緊緊跟著我）.” 和“My husband was pulling me along—again.” 可知，當(dāng)作者進(jìn)行長(zhǎng)途的騎車運(yùn)動(dòng)時(shí)，她的丈夫一路上給她支持和鼓勵(lì)，B選項(xiàng) “backed her up all the way”意為“一路上支持她”，符合題干，故B選項(xiàng)正確。A選項(xiàng)“followed her closely”意為“緊跟著她”，C選項(xiàng)“gave in to her depression”意為“屈服于她的沮喪”，D選項(xiàng)“stopped to take care of her leg”意為“停下來照顧她的腳 ”，均不符合文意，故排除A、C、D。

（4）C主旨大意題。根據(jù)整篇文章和倒數(shù)第二段最后一句以及最后一段點(diǎn)題段的描述，在作者得病后，她的丈夫一直照顧她，鼓勵(lì)和支持她，給她幫助和力量；作者最后也發(fā)出感慨，倘若有一天角色互換，她也會(huì)同樣給她的丈夫支持和力量。故C選項(xiàng) “Reliance on each other（對(duì)彼此的依賴）”正確。A選項(xiàng)“Strong will”意為“堅(jiān)強(qiáng)的意志”；B選項(xiàng)“Selfless love”意為“無私的愛”，主題詞為“愛”，不符合文意；D選項(xiàng)“Optimistic attitude to life”意為“樂觀的生活態(tài)度”。以上三項(xiàng)均偏離文章討論的中心，故排除A，B和D。
