Free, and impersonal, the trains run back and forth all day long. Not many people consider them fun, but on this Saturday I heard laughter. At the front of the first car – looking out the window at the track that lay ahead – were a man and his son. We had just stopped to let off passengers, and the doors were closing again. Here we go! Hold on to me tight! the father said. The boy, about five years old, made sounds of sheer delight. I know we39。re supposed to avoid making racial distinctions(種族歧視) these days, so I hope no one will mind if I mention that most people on the train were white, dressed for business trips or vacations. As I got off, I remembered something I39。d wanted to buy in the terminal. I was early for my flight, so I decided to go back. I did – and just as I was about to reboard the train for my gate, I saw that the man and his son had returned too. I realized then that they hadn39。t been heading for a flight, but had just been riding the shuttle. I want to ride some more! More? the father said, mockexasperated(嗔怪模仿) but clearly pleased. You39。re not tired? This is fun! his son said. All right, the father replied, and when a door opened we all got on. There are parents who can afford to send their children to Europe or Disneyland, but the children turn out rotten. There are parents who live in milliondollar houses and give their children cars and swimming pools, yet something goes wrong. Rich and poor, black and white, so much goes wrong so often. Where are all these people going, Daddy? the son asked. All over the world, came the reply. The other people in the airport were leaving for distant destinations or arriving at the ends of their journeys. The father and son, though, were just riding this shuttle together, making it exciting, sharing each other39。s pany.（1）Why did the father take his son to ride the train?

At the front of the first car – looking out the window at the track that lay ahead – were a man and his son.”和最后一段中的“ The father and son, though, were just riding this shuttle together, making it exciting, sharing each other39。s pany.”可知父子倆乘車是相互陪伴的一次愉快的經(jīng)歷。故選C。（2）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第二段中的“I know we39。re supposed to avoid making racial distinctions(種族歧視) these days, so I hope no one will mind if I mention that most people on the train were white, dressed for business trips or vacations.”可知父子倆是不富裕的黑人。故選A。（3）考查主旨大意。全文雖是作者的視角在看父子倆的關(guān)系，但全文的主人公卻是父子倆，因此文章以父子為標(biāo)題更合適。故選B?！军c(diǎn)評(píng)】本題考點(diǎn)涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解，推理判斷和主旨大意三個(gè)題型的考查，是一篇生活類閱讀，要求考生在捕捉細(xì)節(jié)信息的基礎(chǔ)上，進(jìn)一步根據(jù)上下文的邏輯關(guān)系，進(jìn)行分析，推理，概括和歸納，從而選出正確答案。5．閱讀理解 The American newspaper has been around for about three hundred years. In 1721, the printer James Franklin, Benjamin39。s older brother, started the New England Courant, and that was what we might recognize today as a real newspaper. He filled his paper with stories of adventure, articles on art, on famous people, and on all sorts of political subjects. Three centuries after the appearance of Franklin39。s Courant, few believe that newspapers in their present printed form will remain alive for long, Newspaper panies are losing advertisers, readers, market value, and in some cases, their sense of purpose at a speed that would not have been imaginable just several years ago. The chief editor of the Times said recently, “At places where they gather, editors ask one another, 39。How are you?39。, as if they have just e out of the hospital or a lost law case.” An article about the newspaper appealed on the website of the Guardian, under the headline “NOT DEAD YET.” Perhaps not, but the rise of the Internet, which has made the daily newspaper look slow and out of step with the world, has brought about a real sense of death, Some American newspapers have lost 42% of their market value in the past three years. The New York Times Company has seen its stock（股票）drop by 54% since the end of 2004, with much of the loss ing i
