【题目】In 1978, I was 18 and was working as a nurse in a small town about 270 km away from Sydney, Australia. I was looking forward to having five days off from duty. Unfortunately, the only one train a day back to my home in Sydney had already left. So I thought I’d hitch a ride (搭便车).
I waited by the side of the highway for three hours but no one stopped for me. Finally, a man walked over and introduced himself as Gordon. He said that although he couldn’t give me a lift, I should come back to his house for lunch. He noticed me standing for hours in the November heat and thought I must be hungry. I was doubtful as a young girl but he assured (使…放心)me I was safe, and he also offered to help me find a lift home afterwards. When we arrived at his house, he made us sandwiches. After lunch, he helped me find a lift home.
Twenty-five years later, in 2003, while I was driving to a nearby town one day, I saw an elderly man standing in the glaring heat, trying to hitch a ride. I thought it was another chance to repay someone for the favour I’d been given decades earlier. I pulled over and picked him up. I made him comfortable on the back seat and offered him some water.
After a few moments of small talk, the man said to me, “You haven’t changed a bit, even your red hair is still the same.”
I couldn’t remember where I’d met him. He then told me he was the man who had given me lunch and helped me find a lift all those years ago. It was Gordon.

【4】C
【解析】试题分析:本文是一篇记叙文,题材是社会生活。作者讲述了25年前自己错过了唯一的一趟回家的火车,她想搭便车回家但没有人为她停车。最后一位名叫Gordon的人把自己请到家中吃了午饭并帮助自己找到了回家的便车。25年后的一天搭自己便车的老人竟然是那位名叫Gordon的人。
【1】B细节理解题。用题干中“hitch a ride…1978 ”定位到第一段,答案在第一段最后两句the only one train adayback to my home in Sydney had already left. So I thought I’d hitch a ride唯一的一趟回家的火车已经离开,所以我想搭便车回家。,故选B。
【2】A细节理解题。B, C, D三选项均与第二段不符,答案选A.He helped the girl find a ride, 与第二段最后一句After lunch, he helped me find a lift home.他还主动帮助我找到回家的便车,故选A。
【3】D细节理解题。根据文章第三段中的I thought it was another chance to repay someone for the favor I’d been given decades earlier可知,我认为这是回报几十年前给我帮助的人的又一次机会,故选D。
【4】C写作意图题。综合分析全文内容,25年前我得到Gordon的帮助,25年后Gordon又偶然地得到我的帮助。所以作者想通过这个故事,告诉我们:给予有时会产生好的结果,故选C。
