15、所以第一反应是想让自己坐在那个地方 “没门儿 ”。 【小题 4】考查动词。作者最终改变了初衷， “决定 ”坐在那个座位上。前面提到作者最初不想那么做，因此 B项不恰当。作者并没有自己事先承诺，所以最后一项不正确。 【小题 5】考查副词。句中的 now指的是当时的时间，而女孩是在此之前出的车祸，所以用过去完成时。 【小题 6】考查名词。根据上一段中对她的描写可推断她此行的目的是 “治疗 ”。 【小题 7】考查动词。作者很快就 “意识 ”到她由于胳膊上打着绷带，不能自己吃东 西。 A项表示 “知道 ”，语意不恰当； recognize表示 “认出 ”，语句不通顺。 【小题 8】考查动词。她不能给自
16、己 “喂 ”东西，下一句中的 feed her也提供了暗示。 A项有一定的干扰性，但根据 juice一词可知应该用 drink，而不是 eat，所以此项不太恰当。 【小题 9】考查动词。 offer to do sth表示 “主动提出做某事 ”，下文中的 “I offered to help her eat.”也提供了线索。 【小题 10】考查形容词。作者认为这么做似乎 “没有礼貌 ”。喂食物理应靠近，所以 C项不合理；前面提 到食物端上来之后，作者意识到她无法吃东西才决定帮她，并不是一见面就想提供帮助，因此 D项不恰当。 【小题 11】考查名词。作者和她只是萍水相逢。文中没有交代作者的性别，
17、因此难以确定是性别差异引起的尴尬；作者本身也是 “乘客 ”，所以 C项不正确。 【小题 12】考查形容词。她的需要比自己的不适更 “重要 ”。 A项表示 “非同寻常的 ”，指的是与以往不同，语意不恰当。 【小题 13】考查连词。此处是让步状语从句，表示 “虽然 ”。即尽管她感觉接受别人的照顾不舒服，但还是顺从了。 【小题 14】考查动词。此处 did代指 accepted，为 了避免用词重复。 【小题 15】考查动词。作者为能帮助别人而内心感到无比 “温暖 ”。下一段中的love一词也提供了暗示。 cheer表示 “欢呼 ”，语意不太恰当。 【小题 16】考查形容词。结合本句中的 the fi
18、ve-hour trip可知强调的是 “时间 ”。自己坐在座位上不需要花费 “能量；精力 ”。 【小题 17】考查介词。 my comfort zone指的是 my seat，即作者原来的座位。上文提到作者离开了自己的座位，坐到了另外一个地方，所以用 beyond，表示“在 另一边 ”。 【小题 18】考查副词。作者字里行间 是对自己的做法表示肯定，前三项都表示否定意义，可排除。 【小题 19】考查形容词。 that keep us separate是定语从句，修饰先行词 fears。由于恐惧，我们无法进行沟通，被这堵无形的墙 “分开 ”。此处与 borders 相呼应。 【小题 20】考查副
19、词。当我们 “跨越 ”恐惧的界限，伸出温暖的双手时，就可以生活在一个更广阔的世界中。 happen to do sth表示 “碰巧发生某事 ”，不符合语意； D项在文中没有信息支持。 阅读理解 O. Henry was a pen name used by an American writer of short stories.
