6.About ten years ago,a young and very successful businessman named Josh was traveling down a Chicago neighborhood street.He was going a bit too fast in his shiny,black,12cylinder Jaguar XKE,which was only two months old.
He was watching for kids rushing out from between parked cars and slowed down when he thought he saw something.As his car passed,no child came out,but a brick sailed out and-WHUMP!-it hit the Jaguar's shiny black side door!SCREECH…!!!!Immediately Josh stopped the car,jumped out,seized the kid and pushed him up against a parked car.He shouted at the kid,"What was that all about and who are you?Just what the heck are you doing?!""That's my new Jaguar,that brick you threw is gonna cost you a lot of money.Why did you throw it?"
"Please,mister,please…I'm sorry!I didn't know what else to do!"begged the youngster."I threw the brick because no one else would stop!"tears were streaming down the boy's face as he pointed around the parked car."It's my brother,mister,"he said."He rolled off the curb (路沿) and fell out of his wheelchair and I can't lift him up."Sobbing,the boy asked the businessman,"Would you please help me get him back into his wheelchair?He's hurt and he's too heavy for me."
Moved by the words,the young businessman lifted the young man back into the wheelchair and took out his handkerchief and wiped the scrapers and cuts,checking to see that everything was going to be OK.He then watched the younger brother push him down the sidewalk toward their home.
It was a long walk back to the black,shining,12cylinder Jaguar XKE--a long and slow walk.Josh never did fix the side door of his Jaguar.He kept the dent (凹痕) to remind him not to go through life so fast that someone has to throw a brick at him to get his attention.Feel for the bricks of life coming you.

分析 大約十年前,一位叫做Josh的年輕商人,開著他剛買兩個月的那輛黑亮12缸的捷豹XKE以有點快的車速經(jīng)過住宅區(qū)的巷道.他正看著孩子們從停著的車輛之間沖出來,當(dāng)他以為看到了東西時,他就放慢了速度.當(dāng)他的車通過,沒有孩子出來,但一個磚出去了-WHUMP.擊中捷豹那閃亮的黑色側(cè)門SCREECH…!!Josh立即停下車,跳了出來,
窗體底端
他跳出車外,抓了那個小孩,把他頂在車門上說:"你為什么這樣做,你知道你剛剛做了什么嗎?"接著又吼道:"你知不知道你要賠多少錢來修理這臺新車,你到底為什么要這樣做?"小孩子求著說:"先生,對不起,我不知道我還能怎么辦?"他接著說:"因為我哥哥從輪椅上掉下來,我沒辦法把他抬回去."那男孩啜泣著說:"你可以幫我把他抬回去嗎?他受傷了,而且他太重了我抱不動."
這些話讓這位年輕的商人深受感動,他抱起男孩受傷的哥哥,幫他坐回輪椅上.并拿出手帕擦拭他哥哥的傷口,以確定他哥哥沒有什么大問題.然后他看著男孩推著他哥哥回去.年輕商人返回的路變的很漫長,他也沒有修他汽車的側(cè)門.他保留著車上的凹痕就是提醒自己.生活的道路不要走的太匆忙,否則需要其他人敲打自己來注意生活的真諦.
解答 50-51BDA
50.B細節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)"I threw the brick because no one else would stop!"tears were streaming down the boy's face as he pointed around the parked car."他要尋求幫助.故選B.
51.D 推理判斷題.根據(jù)文章的第四段的描述可知Josh是個好心人.故選D.
52.A 句意理解題.由最后一段倒數(shù)第二句He kept the dent (凹痕) to remind him not to go through life so fast that someone has to throw a brick at him to get his attention的句意,他沒有修車門,讓保留在車上的凹痕時刻提醒自己:不要在生活的道路上走得過于匆忙,那樣別人只好向你扔磚頭,引起你的注意.可知是叫人們多體諒他人疾苦.
點評 本文通過記敘十年前一個叫Josh的非常成功的企業(yè)家駕駛著他那嶄新的汽車在芝加哥附近的街道上發(fā)生的故事,告訴人們應(yīng)該多體諒他人疾苦.注意推理判斷題需要正確的閱讀短文對語篇有個整體的把握.會根據(jù)語句之間的邏輯關(guān)系、段內(nèi)的語義關(guān)系及篇章的語義關(guān)系,從段落篇章的角度理解文章的主旨、作者的觀點和態(tài)度..做此類試題要善于抓住一段話中的關(guān)鍵信息,即某些關(guān)鍵詞或短語去分析、推理、判斷,利用逆向思維或正面推理,從而推斷出這句話所隱含的深層含義.
