One day, a man saw an old lady sitting inside her car at the side of the road. Though it was dark, he could see she needed help. So he stopped his car and walked towards her. The old lady was worried, even though she noticed the smile on his face. Was he going to hurt her? "I’ll help you start your car, madam. By the way, my name is Bryan Anderson, " he said.
While Anderson was fitting a spare tired(备胎) to her car, the lady began to talk to him. She thanked him much for coming to help.
Anderson just smiled as he put his tools away. The lady asked how much she should pay him. He told her that if she really wanted to pay him back, the next time she saw someone who needed help, she could give them the help they needed. He waited until she started her car and drove off.
A few miles down the road, the lady saw a small restaurant. She went in and a waitress came over with a sweet smile. The old lady noticed the waitress was nearly eight months pregnant(怀孕的), but she never let the pains and aches change her smile when she served her.
The lady finished her meal and paid with a hundred-dollar bill. The waitress quickly went to get change, but the old lady was gone when the waitress came back. The waitress wondered where the lady could be. Then she found there was a note on the napkin(餐巾), "You don’t need to give me anything back. Somebody once helped me out the way I’m helping you. If you really want to pay me back, here is what you do—do not let this chain(链子) of love end with you."
Under the napkin were four more $100 bills.

【文章大意】本文是一篇记叙文,主要讲述了爱的传递的两个小故事,一个男人看见一个女士陷入了难题,便停车为她解决了这个问题,他对女士说:如果想报答我,就去帮助别人吧。女士在经过一家餐厅时,看见怀孕的女服务员很辛苦,就偷偷地给了这位服务员一些钱。
31. B【解析】推理判断题。根据文中的信息The old lady was worried, even though she noticed the smile on his face. Was he going to hurt her?这位老妇人担心Anderson会伤害她,可推知她可能很紧张,所以Anderson告诉她自己的名字,为的是使这位老妇人放轻松,故答案选B。
32. B【解析】词义猜测题。根据上文the next time she saw someone who needed help,下次她看到有人需要帮助时,结合本句she could give them the help they needed.她可以给予他们需要的帮助;由此可知they是指上文提到的那些需要帮助的人,故答案选B。
33. A【解析】理解排序题。通读全文可知,首先是老妇人的车坏在了路上,她感到很无助(Helpless);Anderson路过想帮助她,但她担心(Worried)Anderson会伤害她;Anderson告诉她自己的名字,并帮助了她,老妇人想给他钱感谢(Thankful)他;老妇人在一个餐馆里帮助了一个孕妇,(说明她乐于助人Willing and ready to help);最后从老妇人给孕妇留的字条上可以看出,老妇人感到很幸福(Happy),因为她让爱的链条得到了延续。结合选项可知A选项符合题意,故答案选A。
34. D【解析】理解判断题。通读全文可知,Anderson帮助一个年纪大的女士,并告诉他自己不需要感谢,只希望她把帮助别人这个好习惯传递下去,然后这位年纪大的女士又帮助了一位孕妇服务员,同样她希望这位孕妇服务员也把帮助别人这个好习惯传递下去;由此可推知,这位孕妇服务员以后可能会帮助别人,故答案选D。
35. A【解析】标题归纳题。根据文中的信息Somebody once helped me out the way I’m helping you. If you really want to pay me back, here is what you do—do not let this chain(链子) of love end with you. 有人也这样帮助了我,你也可以这样做,不要让这条爱之链随着你而结束。所以应该是帮助他人,传递爱心。结合选项A. The Help of Strangers陌生人的帮助;B. The Power of Smile微笑的力量;C. The China of Love爱的中国;D. The Bill of Kindness仁慈的比尔;可知A选项符合题意,故答案选A。
