With effort, we can translate passion into action. An experience last weekend showed me this is true. I work parttime in supermarket across from a building for the elderly. These old people are our main customers, and it39。s not hard to lose patience over their slowness. But last Sunday, one aged gentleman appeared to teach me a valuable lesson. This untidy man walked up to my register（收款機）with a box of biscuits. He said he was out of cash, had just moved into his room, and had nothing in his cupboards. He asked if we could let him have the food on trust. He promised to repay me the next day. I couldn39。t help staring at him. I wondered what kind of person he had been ten or twenty years before, and what he would be like if fortune had gone his way. I had a hurt in my heart for this kind of human soul, all alone in the world. I told him that I was sorry, but store rules didn39。t allow me to do so. I felt stupid and unkind saying this, but I valued my job. Just then, another man, standing behind the first, spoke up. If anything, he looked more pitiable, “Charge it to me,” was all he said. What I had been feeling was pity. Pity is soft and safe and easy. Compassion, on the other hand, is caring in action. I thanked the second man but told him that was not allowed either. Then I reached into my pocket and paid for the biscuits myself. I reached into my pocket because these two men had reached into my heart and taught me passion.（1）The aged gentleman who wanted to buy the biscuits______.

He asked if we could let him have the food on trust. He promised to repay me the next day.”可知，結(jié)賬時這個老人說自己沒有錢了，問我他可不可以先把餅干拿走，第二天再把錢送來，故選B。 （2）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第一段老人身上連買餅干的錢都沒有及第二段中的“all alone in the world.”可知，他又窮又孤獨，故選C。 （3）考查細節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第二段中的“but store rules didn39。t allow me to do so. I felt stupid and unkind saying this, but I valued my job.”可知，商店的規(guī)定不允許先拿貨后付錢，作者想保住這份工作所以不敢違反規(guī)定，故選C。 （4）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第一段中的“Compassion（同情）is a desire within us to help others. With effort, we can translate passion into action. ”可知，同情是我們內(nèi)心幫助別人的愿望，通過努力，我們可以把它轉(zhuǎn)化為行動，也就是說作者從這個經(jīng)歷中學到了同情意味著以某種方式幫助別人，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，是一篇人生感悟類閱讀，考生需要準確掌握細節(jié)信息，并根據(jù)上下文進行邏輯推理，從而選出正確答案。9．閱讀理解 When I was a boy there were no smart phones. Computers were something you saw on STAR TREK(星際航行), and our television only got one channel clearly. Still, I was never bored. The fields, hills, and woodlands around my house were the nature readymade playgrounds. I can remember once hiking to a nearby lake and slowly walking around it. At the backside of it I was amazed to find an old, onelane, dirt road that I had never seen before. I immediately set out to travel it. It was full of holes and muddy tracks and deep woods bordered it on both sides, but exploring it still seemed like a fine adventure. I walked on and on for what seemed like hours. I was sure my guardian angel was whispering in my ear to turn around and head back home but I was stubborn
