Question

【題目】 The summer I turned 16, my father gave me a car, which permitted Hannah and me to drive around Tucson whenever we wanted to.

Hannah was my best friend. “Hannah’s amazing," my mother always said. And sure enough, that summer she signed with a modeling agency. She was already doing runway work.

One day, Hannah and I went to the movies. On the way home, we stopped at the McDonald's drive-through, putting the fries on the seat between us to share. "Let’s ride around a while," I said. It was a clear night, moonlight shone over the desert. Taking a turn too fast, I hit a patch of dirt and fishtailed.

French fries on the floor. An impossible amount of blood on Hannah’s face. They took us in separate ambulances. In the ER, my parents spoke quietly: Best plastic surgeon in the city. End of her modeling career.

We'd been wearing lap belts, but the car didn’t have shoulder harnesses. I’d cracked my cheekbone; Hannah's forehead had split wide open. What would I say to her?

When her mother, Sharon, came into my hospital room, I started to cry, bracing myself for her anger. She sat beside me and took my hand. “I almost ended my best friend when I was your age,” she said, “I totaled her car and mine.”

“I'm so sorry,”I said.

“You’re both alive,”she said, “The rest is window dressing.” I started to protest, and Sharon stopped me. “I forgive you. Hannah will too.”

Sharon’s forgiveness allowed Hannah and me to stay friends throughout life. I think of her gift of forgiveness every time I want to resent someone for a perceived wrong. And whenever I see Hannah, the scars are a symbol of grace for me.

【4】D

【解析】

這是一篇記敘文。作者載著好朋友漢娜開車時，因為轉(zhuǎn)彎太快出了車禍。這場車禍毀了漢娜即將開始的模特事業(yè)。作者非常內(nèi)疚，但是漢娜的媽媽和漢娜原諒了她。之后每當(dāng)作者想因為錯誤而怨恨某人時，就會想起漢娜對她的寬恕。

【1】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段最后一句Taking a turn too fast, I hit a patch of dirt and fishtailed.可知，作者是因為開車的時候轉(zhuǎn)彎太快出了事故，故選B項。

【2】推理判斷題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段Sharon stopped me. “I forgive you. Hannah will too.”可知，漢娜的媽媽原諒了作者，所以她是一個寬宏大量的（generous）人，故選B項。

【3】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段中的End of her modeling career.可知，這場車禍毀了漢娜的模特事業(yè)，故選C項。根據(jù)Sharon's forgiveness allowed Hannah and me to stay friends throughout life. 可知，漢娜原諒了作者，她們之后還是朋友，A項錯誤；文章中只提了漢娜和作者的傷勢，沒有說作者和漢娜因此殘疾了，也沒有提到作者因此對開車失去信心，B，D項錯誤。

【4】主旨大意題。好朋友漢娜原諒了作者的過錯，她們成為了一生的好朋友，而之后每當(dāng)作者想因為錯誤而怨恨某人時，就會想起漢娜對她的寬恕。作者通過這個經(jīng)歷強調(diào)了學(xué)會寬恕。故D項“學(xué)會寬恕”是最佳題目。

做細(xì)節(jié)理解題是要學(xué)會排除干擾項。事實細(xì)節(jié)題的設(shè)計干擾項一般都是某一細(xì)節(jié)的錯誤敘述與論斷，可先排除干擾項。比如第三小題，可以通過原文Sharon's forgiveness allowed Hannah and me to stay friends throughout life排除錯誤的A項，而B,D項在原文也沒有提及，直接排除。通過排除干擾項可以讓自己的答案正確率更高。
