Question

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

Just up the road from my home is a field, with two horses in it. From a distance, each horse looks like any other horses. But if you get a more careful look, you will notice something quite amazing.

One of the horses is blind. His owner has chosen not to kill it, but has made him a safe and comfortable barn(畜棚)to live in. This alone is very amazing. But if you stand nearby and listen, you will hear the sound of a bell. It is coming from a smaller horse with a small, gold-colored bell. It lets the blind friend know where the other horse is, so he can follow. As you stand and watch these two friends, you'll see that the horse with the bell is always checking on the blind horse and makes sure that the blind horse can hear the bell, slowly walk to where he is, and won’t get lost.

When the horse with the bell returns to the barn each evening, he will sometimes stop to look back, making sure that the blind friend isn't too far behind to hear the bell.

Like the owners of these two horses, God does not throw us away just because we are not perfect, or because we have problems or challenges. He watches over us and even brings others into our lives to help us when we are in trouble. Sometimes we are the blind horse which is being guided by the little ringing bells. And at other times we are the guide horse, helping others to find their way.

【解析】

试题分析：本文主要讲述了一匹盲马在另外一匹带着铃铛的马的带领下一起生活的故事，告诉我们要互相协助共渡难关。

1. 细节理解题。根据文中you'll see that the horse with the bell is always checking on the blind horse and makes sure that the blind horse can hear the bell...可知，当你靠近的时候你会很惊讶的看到一只马通过铃铛发出声音使另一匹盲马跟随着它，以免盲马迷路，故选D。

2. 推理判断题。根据第二段第二句His owner has chosen not to kill it, but has made him a safe and comfortable barn(畜棚)to live in.和文中最后一段中Like the owners of these two horses, God does not throw us away just because we are not perfect, or because we have problems or challenges.可知，本文是把马的主人与上帝相比，指出马的主人就像上帝一样，不仅没杀盲马，而且通过在另一只健康的马身上拴上铃铛让这只马照顾盲马，故选C。

3. 细节理解题。根据最后一段中He watches over us and even brings others into our lives to help us when we are in trouble.可知，上帝一直关注着我们，而且会在我们有困难的时候帮助我们，故选B。

4. 主旨大意题。本文主要讲述了一匹盲马在另外一匹栓着铃铛的马的带领下一起生活的故事，告诉我们要互相协助共渡难关。所以D选项较为合适，故选D。
