Question

When I was ten, my mother worked all day so I had to take care of my younger brother. At that time my little brother was about four years old and he missed mum all the time.

One day, after I had given him his dinner, he started crying for mum. He was so young and really needed mum. So I dressed him, put on his shoes, carried him on my back and walked out. Soon he fell asleep. About half an hour later, I found that he had lost a shoe while sleeping. I took him off my back and put him down. I knew we needed to find that shoe, for our mother couldn’t afford new shoes. We had to go back to find it, so I told my brother to wait right there. A man heard it and stopped me just before I walked off. He asked me, “You are leaving your brother here to find the shoe? What would you do if he is not here when you return?” I did not know how to answer that question. He continued, “It’s OK if you can’t find the shoe, but it is not OK to lose your brother.” Then he sent us to mum’s workplace by taxi.

My whole life I have depended on (依靠) the kindness of many strangers, I feel regretful that I cannot find them and say thank you. I do not even remember what the man’s face looked like, but he taught me a lesson—people are more important than things.

試題分析：這篇短文主要記述了作者自己小時(shí)候發(fā)生的一件事，也由此讓我懂得了人比東西重要這個(gè)道理。

1.根據(jù)第二段, he started crying for mum. 描述，可知選B。

2.聯(lián)系上下文描述，可知此處指的是我不能找到他們，向他們說(shuō)謝謝感到遺憾，故選A。

3.聯(lián)系前文描述，可知此處指的是我的弟弟比那只鞋重要。故選A，人比東西重要。

4.文中的這個(gè)男人在我即將犯錯(cuò)時(shí)，提醒了我，并開車送我們?nèi)�媽媽工作的地方，可知這是一個(gè)善良的人。故選D。

考點(diǎn)：故事類記述文閱讀

點(diǎn)評(píng)：本文中長(zhǎng)句較多，一時(shí)很難讀懂句子含義，注意多讀幾遍，不要強(qiáng)求非得理解一詞一句的含義，能把握文章大意就行。然后帶著問(wèn)題閱讀短文，一般就能順利找出答題依據(jù)。對(duì)于不能直接找到根據(jù)的問(wèn)題注意聯(lián)系上下文，根據(jù)短文中心總結(jié)出正確答案。
