Passage 16(2020•黑龙江省牡丹江市)

 

It was raining hard and nearing dark. I was late for an appointment (预约) in a nearby city that I know only by GPS. And now my phone has died. The usual exits (出口) were closed. I didn't know how to get where I was going or how to let my appointment know I might not make it there.
I stopped at a KFC in a poor part of town and walked up to a mother and her teen daughter.
“I'm sorry, but is it possible for me to look up a number on your phone and then call the place and let them know I'm lost?” She handed me her phone and then told me I was lucky she had her phone, for it was getting ready to be turned off because she didn't have enough money to pay the phone bill.
The young girl and the mother didn't pay me much attention when I made a call. The appointment told me how to get there by another road.
Before I left. suddenly, I reached into my wallet where I don't usually have cash (现金) and pulled out all I had, a $20 bill. I gave it into the mother's hand and then turned to leave quickly. I heard her daughter calling after me, “Thanks, sir. You have no idea how you just helped us.” And yet, they really helped me.
Judge the following sentences true (T) or false (F) according to the passage.
51.The writer asked the mother and her daughter for help because his phone didn't work.
52.The woman said the writer was lucky because he had enough money to pay the phone bill.
53.From the passage we know the mother and her daughter were also in great need of help.
54.The writer paid the mother $20 as the cost of using the phone.
55.When the writer got help from others, he also passed on his kindness at the same time.
文章讲述的是作者赴约时半路手机没电了,借一对母女的手机联系朋友并付钱答谢,但同时作者也帮助了那对母女的故事。
51.F【解析】细节理解题。根据文中And now my phone has died. I stopped at a KFC in a poor part of town and walked up to a mother and her teen daughter. “I’m sorry, but is it possible for me to look up a number on your phone and then call the place and let them know I'm lost?”可知,作者的手机是没有电了而不是坏了,所以这里的描述是错误的,故填F。
52.F【解析】细节理解题。根据文中She handed me her phone and then told me I was lucky she had her phone, for it was getting ready to be turned off because she didn't have enough money to pay the phone bill.以及I reached into my wallet where I don’t usually have cash (现金) and pulled out all I had, a $20 bill. I gave it into the mother’s hand and then turned to leave quickly.。可知那个妇女的手机也因为即将欠费而停机,说作者幸运,是因为现在手机还能够使用,并不是作者有足够的钱来付话费,所以这里的描述是错误的,故填F。
53.T【解析】推理判断题。根据文中for it was getting ready to be turned off because she didn’t have enough money to pay the phone bill.以及I heard her daughter calling after me, “Thanks, sir. You have no idea how you just helped us.”可知那对母女也是需要帮助的,所以这里的描述是正确的,故填T。
54.F【解析】细节理解题。根据文中Before I left. suddenly, I reached into my wallet where I don’t usually have cash (现金) and pulled out all I had, a $20 bill. I gave it into the mother’s hand and then turned to leave quickly.可知,作者给20美元钱并不是为了支付刚才的话费,而是为了感谢,所以这里的描述是错误的,故填F。
55.T【解析】推理判断题。根据文中I gave it into the mother’s hand and then turned to leave quickly. I heard her daughter calling after me, “Thanks, sir. You have no idea how you just helped us.” And yet, they really helped me.可知,那对母女帮助了作者,同时作者也帮助了那对母女,是在传递刚刚得到的那对母女的善良,所以这里的描述是正确的,故填T。
