    One day, I was taking a nap in the red chair in my office when I woke up to the sound of a car crash. I sat up and looked, immediately, out my window. Across the street, in a parking lot, a car had just backed into a chain-link fence. The car must have been moving fast, because it was in bad shape: Its hood had popped up. The fence was damaged, bent out in exactly the shape of the car’s back end.

I watched the driver get out of the car. He was strong with a shaved head; he wore cargo shorts and a flannel (法兰绒) shirt unbuttoned to expose his chest hair. I disliked him immediately. After a few seconds of assessing the damage, he attempted to pull the ruined fence back into place, but it wouldn’t move. He tried to push the fallen piece of bumper back onto his car, but that only made the rest of his bumper fall off too.

I sat in my red chair, looking out my window, silently cheering. I think I laughed out loud. This was a ridiculous masterpiece. He climbed out from under the collapsed fence and limped back to the apartment building above the lot, rubbing his elbow. The man—that disgusting man—was going to leave all the chaos behind for someone else to clean up.

But the man appeared a few minutes later with some tools. He got to work immediately, removing one of the fence’s bent support bars and hammering it straight on the asphalt (沥青). For the next hour, I watched out my window as he doggedly(固执地) fixed the fence, even improved it. Now the fence would be extra secure, stronger than before, impossible to damage.

This strange man was actually a hero. I was the lazy one, with my kneejerk (应激反应) judgments, my superiority (优越感) from three stories up. My ugly assumptions, I realized, were all about myself. I would never have fixed that fence; I would have panicked and run away.

Years later, I still look out my window at that fence almost every day. It still looks brand new, It makes me wonder what else that man has improved, and how I can make myself more like him.

1.Why did the driver leave a bad first impression on the writer?

A.Because he badly damaged the fence.

B.Because he acted rudely and impolitely.

C.Because he escaped and left the mess to others.

D.Because he had a strange appearance and dressed casually.

2.The last two paragraphs tell us that ________.

A.if the writer were the driver, he thought he would do better

B.the writer gave a quick judgment from his previous experiences

C.the driver acted like a hero and had a great influence on the writer

D.the writer looks out his window often and expects to see the driver again

3.Which of the following words can best describe the driver?

A.Rude but honest. B.Lazy but strong-minded.

C.Impatient but generous. D.Ordinary-looking but responsible.

4.What can be the best title of the text?

A.Don’t Judge a Book by Its Cover

B.One’s Thinking Directs One’s Actions

C.Treat Other People As You Hope They Will Treat You

D.The Environment Depends on What You Think in You Mind

 

1.D 2.C 3.D 4.A 【解析】 本文是一篇记叙文,主要讲述了作者目睹了窗外的一个意外(一个外表粗犷的司机刮坏了停车场的栅栏后没有一走了之,而是把它修葺一新),这引发了作者对关于如何评判他人和认识自我的反思——不能以貌取人,要学习那位司机英雄般的行为。 1. 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“He was strong with a shaved head; he wore cargo shorts and a flannel (法兰绒) shirt unbuttoned to expose his chest hair. I disliked him immediately.”可知,那位司机很强壮,剃了个光头,穿着工装短裤衬衫敞着怀儿,露着胸毛,作者立刻就讨厌他了,由此可知,作者对她印象不好的原因是他怪异的外表和随意的穿着,故D项正确。 2. 主旨大意题。根据后两段内容,特别是根据倒数第二段第一句“This strange man was actually a hero. ”及最后一段最后一句“It makes me wonder what else that man has improved, and how I can make myself more like him. ”可知,那位司机把栅栏修葺一新,表现得像一个英雄,作者也决定向他学习,由此可知,这两段主要讲的是那位司机英雄般的行为对作者影响颇深,故C项正确。 3. 推理判断题。根据第二段中对那位司机的外貌描写“He was strong with a shaved head; he wore cargo shorts and a flannel (法兰绒) shirt unbuttoned to expose his chest hair.”位司机很强壮,剃了个光头,穿着工装短裤衬衫敞着怀儿,露着胸毛,及第四段中的动作描写“But the man appeared a few minutes later with some tools. He got to work immediately, removing one of the fence’s bent support bars and hammering it straight on the asphalt (沥青).”但几分钟后那个人带着工具出现了。 他马上开始工作,移开一根弯曲的支撑杆,然后在沥青路面上敲打它和“he doggedly(固执地) fixed the fence, even improved it.”那位司机把栅栏修葺一新。由此判断出他虽然外表平平、穿着随意,但是极负责任地修好并加固了栅栏,故D项正确。 4. 主旨大意题。通读全文可知,,主要讲述了作者目睹了窗外的一个意外(一个外表粗犷的司机刮坏了停车场的栅栏后没有一走了之,而是把它修葺一新),这引发了作者对关于如何评判他人和认识自我的反思——不能以貌取人,要学习那位司机英雄般的行为。所以短文的最佳标题为“我们不要以貌取人”,故A项正确。

阅读下面短文,根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。

If you haven’t seen or heard anything about Road Rage (路怒) in the last few months, you’ve probably been avoiding the media. There have been countless stories about this new and scary phenomenon, considered a type of aggressive driving. You’ve most likely encountered aggressive driving or Road Rage recently if you drive.

Why is this phenomenon occurring more than ever now and why is it something that seemed almost nonexistent a few short years ago? Experts have certain theories and all are probably partially correct. One suggestion is overcrowding. In the last decade, the number of the cars on the roads has increased by more than 11 percent, and the number of miles driven has increased by 35 percent. However, the number of new road miles has only increased by 1 percent. That means more cars in the same amount of space; and the problem is even serious in urban areas. Also, people have less time and more things to do. With people working and trying to fit extra chores and activities into the day, street levels have never been higher. Stress creates anxiety, which leads to short tempers. These factors, when combined in certain situations, can cause Road Rage.

You may think you are the last person who would drive aggressively, but you might be surprised. For instance, have you ever yelled out loud at a slower driver, sounded the horn long and hard at another car, or sped up to keep another driver from passing? If you recognize yourself in any of these situations, watch out!

Whether you are getting angry at other drivers, or another driver is visibly upset with you, there are things you can do to avoid any major conflict. If you are easily influenced to Road Rage, the key is to discharge your emotion in a healthy way. If you are the target of another driver’s rage, do everything possible to get away from the other driver safely, including avoiding eye contact and getting out of their way.
