【正文】 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 and even a bit stupid, so I walked on. The dirt road give way to a rock one and then a paved one, yet there was still neither a car nor a house in sight. My legs were getting tired. I noticed that the sun was starting to go down and I grew scared. I didn39。t want to end up trapped on this road in the dark of night, but I was sure it would be dark before I could make my way back to the lake again. I was almost in tears when I turned one last curve(彎曲處) and saw something in the distance. It was a house that I recognized. My heart leapt up! I jumped up and down and laughed out loud. I knew the way home! It was still over a mile away but my legs felt like feathers and I hurried back to my house in no time. I walked in with a big smile on my face just in time for dinner. I remembered this recently when I saw a sign that said, “All roads lead Home.” This is true. In this life all roads no matter what their twists(彎曲) and turns are can lead us home again. They can lead us to our homes here on Earth. They can lead us to our homes in our heart, if we can insist.（1）Why was the author never bored when he was a boy? there was still a TV. he liked hiking alone. there were so many playgrounds built for him. he had so many places around his house to play.（2）What made the author decide to take the old road? it before. it was a muddy road. a new and special experience. it had deep woods on both sides.（3）How did the author feel when he saw a known house in the distance? ....（4）Why did the author mention the sign? share a famous saying with readers. introduce what he wanted to say. explain the function of the sign. prove the significance of the sign.【答案】 （1）D（2）C（3）A（4）B 【解析】【分析】這是一篇夾敘夾議的文章。文章通過自己的親身經(jīng)歷，說明了所有的路，最終都是回家的路。 （1）細(xì)節(jié)理解題。答案定位在第一段Still, I was never bored. The fields, hills, and woodlands around my house were the nature readymade ，故選D。 （2）推理判斷題。答案定位在第二段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.（它到處都是洞和泥濘的小路，兩邊都是茂密的樹林，但探索它仍然像是一場美妙的冒險。）由此可見嘗試一種新的和特殊的體驗使作者決定走這條老路，故選C。 （3）推理判斷題。答案定位在倒數(shù)第二段It was a house that I recognized. My heart leapt up!

One January, I had to hold two funerals for two elderly women in my munity. Both had died full of years, as the Bible would say. Their homes happened to be near each other, so I paid condolence(吊唁) calls on the two families on the same afternoon. At the first home, the son of the deceased(過世的)woman said to me, If only I had sent my mother to Florida and gotten her out of this cold and snow, she would be alive today. It39。s my fault that she died. At the second home, the son of the other deceased woman said, If only I hadn39。t insisted on my mother39。s going to Florida, she would be alive today. That long airplane ride, the sudden change of climate, was more than she could take. It39。s my fault that she39。s dead. You see that any time there is a death, the survivors will feel guilty. Because the course of action they took turned out bad, they believe that the opposite course—keeping Mother at home, putting off the operation—would have turned out better. After all, how could it have turned out any worse? There seem to be two elements involved in our willingness to feel guilty. The first is our need to believe that the world makes sense, that there is a cause for every effect and a reason for everything that happens. That leads us to find patterns and connections both where they really exist and where they exist only in our minds. The second element is the view that we are the cause of what happens, especially the bad things that happen. It seems to be a short step from believing that every event has a cause to believing that every disaster is our fault. The roots of this feeling may lie in our childhood. A baby es to think that the world exists to meet his needs, and that he makes everything happen in it. He wakes up in the morning and summons the rest of the world to his tasks. He cries, and someone es to attend to him. When he is hungry, people feed him, and when he is wet, people change him. Very often, we do not pletely outgrow that childish view that our wishes cause things to happen.（1）What is said about the two deceased elderly women? lived out a natural life. died of exhaustion after the long plane ride. weren39。t used to the change in weather. died due to lack of care by family members.（2）The author had to conduct the two women39。s funerals probably because . wanted to fort the two families was an official from the munity had great pity for the deceased was minister of the local church（3）People feel guilty for the death of their loved ones because . found the funerals unsatisfactory believed that they were responsible had ignored the natural course of events didn39。t know things often turn in the opposite direction（4）People have been made to believe since babyhood that . should try to meet others39。 needs and death is an unsolved mystery story should have a happy ending wishes are the cause of everything that happens【答案】 （1）A（2）D（3）B（4）D 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇夾敘夾議文，作者通過兩個已故夫人的兒子自責(zé)的話語，引出并分析了人們產(chǎn)生負(fù)罪感的兩個因素。 （1）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第一段中的“Both had died‘fu
