1.The man beside her looked familiar.She felt like she knew him.Then when he opened the book on his knees,she at once knew who he was.
"Now,if anyone ever has a doubt regarding factorization (因式分解),just once,read page number thirteen in your textbook.There would be no more doubt."
She smiled at the memory,remembering his patient,cool face.She recalled one by one,all the memories of her middle school Math teacher.
He was a widower(寡夫),always looking sad.He looked tailor-made for a librarian,silent as his books,or a romantic poet,but a mathematics teacher was the last guess anyone could make about him.
Oh,how they used to make fun of him,play tricks on him and laugh behind his back!He never laughed but smiled politely at everybody.Sometimes he would make silly mistakes on the blackboard,and then apologize as he erased it out.He always gave in to the girls'demands of shortening his class.His correction was always careless and merciful,and the middle school girls relied on this fact to pass through the hardest of mathematics exam papers.
But she didn't remember him for this.
Long shiny hair and soulful big eyes.A tall,slim frame.His daughter.They had been best friends and always hung about together.She recalled eagerly all the fun they had in middle school,wild and carefree…until his daughter went down with pneumonia(肺炎).She could never forget the suddenness and the meaninglessness of it,the feeling of emptiness.
After that,he looked even sadder.But,life went on.
Now,after almost 25years,sitting beside him,with a dirty city bus aisle between them,she gathered her courage and said,"Mr.Rao?I'm an old student of yours.You taught me in middle school."
He looked at her for a while."I do not even seem to remember any student."
She knew he was lying."I am sorry about your daughter."
There was a pause in their conversation,and it was filled with all kinds of noises.Then he spoke,looking away."I do not need any sympathy.In fact,all my new students think I never had any kids."He had a smile,but his eyes were sad.
"Where do you work now?"she asked.
"Future Generation High School."
She swallowed,in excitement.The school where her daughter studied.
"Do you happen to know Jaya Kumari?"
Something flashed across his face.Anyone else would consider the expression as recalling something.But she knew it was pain.Then his face was calm again.
"No."His answer was short.
"Well,she is my daughter."
Her daughter was a topper,a gold medalist in the Math State Competitions.He was pretending.
The bus stopped.She stood up and looked down at him."I was your daughter's best friend.You must surely remember me…"
"Excuse me,"he said,looking nervous."I do not want this conversation.Someday,you'll see that it is easier to bury the past."He said,and went back to his graph.
"Her loss was hard on me too,"she continued calmly."I named my daughter after her."

解答 63.C.推理判斷題.劃線部分He looked tailor-made for a librarian,silent as his books,or a romantic poet,but a mathematics teacher was the last guess anyone could make about him意為:"他像書本一樣沉默,看起來是個量身定做的圖書管理員,或者是個浪漫主義的詩人.但人們絕不可能猜到他是個數(shù)學老師."故可知意為他看起來不像數(shù)學老師;故選C.
64.A.推理判斷題.根據(jù)第六段He always gave in to the girls'demands of shortening his class.His correction was always careless and merciful可知當女人在中學的時候,Mr.Rao可能是善良熱心的;故選A.
65.B.細節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)第七段But she didn't remember him for this.及全文內(nèi)容可知,數(shù)學老師死去的女兒是作者最好的朋友,故可知那位女士記得他的數(shù)學老師可能是因為他們都遭受了失去親人的痛苦;故選B.
66.A.推理判斷題.根據(jù)倒數(shù)第六段中Something flashed across his face…But she knew it was pain.可知那個男人拒絕知道這個女人的女兒是因為還沒有從女兒去世的傷痛中恢復(fù)過來;故選A.
