【正文】 had a parttime job at a shop that sold doughnuts and coffee. Situated on a block where several buses stopped, it served the people who had a few minutes to wait for their bus. Every afternoon around four o39。clock, a group of schoolchildren would burst into the shop, and business would e to a stop. Adults would glance in, see the crowd and pass on. But I didn39。t mind if the children waited for their bus inside. Sometimes I would hand out a bus fare when a ticket went missing — always repaid the next day. On snowy days I would give away some doughnuts. I would lock the door at closing time, and we waited in the warm shop until their bus finally arrived. I enjoyed my young friends, but it never occurred to me that I played an important role in their lives — until one afternoon when a man came and asked if I was the girl working on weekdays around four o39。clock. He identified himself as the father of two of my favorites. I want you to know I appreciate what you do for my children. I worry about them taking two buses to get home. It means a lot that they can wait here and you keep an eye on them. When they are with the doughnut lady, I know they are safe. I told him it wasn39。t a big deal, and that I enjoyed the kids. So I was the Doughnut Lady. I not only received a title, but became a landmark. Now I think about all the people who keep an eye on my own children. They bee, well, Doughnut Ladies. Like the men at the skating rink (滑冰場) who let my boys ring home。 Or the bus driver who drove my daughter to her stop at the end of the route at night but wouldn39。t leave until I arrived to pick her up。 Or that nice police officer who took pity on my boys walking home in the rain when I was at work — even though the phone rang all the next day with calls from curious neighbors. Was that a police car I saw at your house last night? That wasn39。t a police car. That was a Doughnut Lady.（1）According to the passage, the author sometimes _______.

That was a Doughnut Lady.”可知有好心的警察在下雨時將她的孩子送回去了，而作者把這位好心的警察稱為甜甜圈女士，說明在作者心中，幫助他人的人就是甜甜圈女士，故選A。 （4）考查推理判斷。文中作者充滿善意地對待在她兼職的店里等車的孩子，她自己孩子也被善意地對待，全文的關(guān)鍵就是善意的行為，所以D項切題，故選D。 【點評】本題考點涉及細節(jié)理解和推理判斷兩個題型的考查，是一篇故事類閱讀，考生需要準(zhǔn)確捕捉細節(jié)信息，并根據(jù)上下文進行邏輯推理，從而選出正確答案。8．閱讀短文，從每題所給的四個選項（A、B、C和D）中，選出最佳選項。 In 2011, Nancy Ballard went for a routine checkup that turned into something extraordinary. In fact, she was carrying a painting of a plant she39。d done when she arrived at her doctor39。s San Francisco office. It would be great if we had artwork like that for our chemotherapy (化療) rooms, the nurse said. Ballard asked to see one. She was shocked by what she found. The walls were dull and bare, and the paint was chipping (剝落). It was a depressing room for a depressing routine—patients restricted to chemo drips for perhaps several hours, often with nothing to look at other than those sad walls. Ballard didn39。t have cancer herself, but she could sympathize with the patients. I couldn39。t imagine how anyone could even think about getting healthy in a room like that, she says. As it happens, Ballard39。s physician, Stephen Hufford, was ill with cancer himself, so finding time to decorate the rooms was low on his todo list. So Ballard made it her mission to brighten up the place. She started by ing 20 local designers. I wrote, 39。You don39。t know me. But my heart hurts after seeing these rooms, she remembers. She then asked whether they would donate their time and money to transform just one of Dr. Hufford39。s rooms each. As it happened, six of them wrote back almost immediately. Six rooms got new paint, light fixtures, artwork, and furniture. Dr. Hufford was delighted. All the patients feel relieved of the pain because of it, he said. He even noted that his own tone of voice was different in the rooms and that he was better able to connect with his patients. Ballard was so encouraged by the patients39。 reactions that she created a nonprofit, Rooms That Rock 4 Chemo, to raise money and decorate more spaces. Since then, she has worked on 20 projects, including one in Pennsylvania. We were in Philadelphia for a ribbon cutting, and a woman was there on her third battle with cancer, says Ballard. When she saw what we39。d done, she said, 39。I39。m gonna beat it this time. I thought I wasn39。t going to, but now I know I39。m gonna beat it.（1）What made Ballard decide to help decor
