Question

【题目】 Once again. Myra sat alone on the bus. Even after two weeks at her new school, Myra had not made any friends. At breaks (课间) she played alone. In art class, she drew alone. In the lunchroom, she ate alone. And on the bus ride home, she sat alone.

Myra could not understand why no one wanted to be her friend. Other kids joked and laughed with each other. But none of them joked and laughed with her. Just thinking about it made her head hurt and her stomach feel funny.

One day, as Myra sat alone on the way to school, she looked at the seat across from her. She saw a girl sitting all by herself. The girl looked lonely, too. Myra wondered if she should say hello.

But what if the girl didn't want to be her friend? Maybe she already had a lot of friends. What if the girl ignored (忽视) her? What if she laughed at her? Myra stared at the floor of the bus. Finally, she took a deep breath to relax and smiled at the girl. The girl smiled back.

Myra said, “Hi, I'm Myra. Do you want to sit next to me?”

The girl's smile grew. “I'm Nadia! Yes. I'd like to sit next to you.”

At the next stop, Nadia slid (滑行) into the seat next to Myra. They joked and laughed the whole way to school.

At breaks, Myra and Nadia played together. In art class, they drew together. In the lunchroom, they ate together.

And on the bus ride home, they sat together. When it came time for Myra to get off the bus, she turned to her new friend. “Bye, Nadia! I'll see you tomorrow!”

Nadia smiled. “Good-bye, Myra. I'll save you a seat.”

Myra got off the bus. She turned around and waved to Nadia. Then she watched as the bus drove away. A big smile spread across Myra's face. She had made a friend, a friend who was going to save her a seat tomorrow. She could hardly wait.

【1】

细节理解题。根据短文第一段“Even after two weeks at her new school, Myra had not made any friends. At breaks (课间) she played alone. In art class, she drew alone. In the lunchroom, she ate alone. And on the bus ride home, she sat alone.”可知，Myra来到新学校两周了，她还没有交到一个朋友，因此她总是一个人做很多事。故选B。

【2】

词义猜测题。interesting有趣的；excited兴奋的；sick难受的，生病的；disappointed失望的。根据语境“Other kids joked and laughed with each other. But none of them joked and laughed with her. Just thinking about it made her head hurt and her stomach feel funny.”可知，其他的孩子们总是一起说说笑笑，却不带她，这让Myra感到很头痛，胃里难受。因此sick的意思与funny最为接近，指身体不舒服，故选C。

【3】

细节理解题。根据短文第三段“One day, as Myra sat alone on the way to school, she looked at the seat across from her. She saw a girl sitting all by herself. The girl looked lonely, too.”可知，Myra是在去学校的公交车上遇到了Nadia。故选D。

【4】

推理判断题。根据短文第四段“Finally, she took a deep breath to relax and smiled at the girl. The girl smiled back.”可知，Myra先是对那个女孩微笑，那个女孩也对她微笑，然后她们开始聊了起来。由此可知，微笑是对别人表示友好的一种方式，因此如果我们想和一个人交朋友，我们应该先对他/她微笑。故选D。

【5】

推理判断题。根据短文第八段“At breaks, Myra and Nadia played together. In art class, they drew together. In the lunchroom, they ate together.”可知，Myra和Nadia一起玩、一起上美术课、一起吃午饭。由此可见，她们两个人是在同一所学校中，故选B。根据第九段“And on the bus ride home, they sat together. When it came time for Myra to get off the bus, she turned to her new friend. “Bye, Nadia! I'll see you tomorrow!””可知，Myra比Nadia先下车，因此Myra的家比Nadia离学校更近，故A不对；根据短文第四段“But what if the girl didn't want to be her friend? Maybe she already had a lot of friends. What if the girl ignored (忽视) her? What if she laughed at her?”可知，在跟Nadia聊天之前，Myra非常的犹豫，故C不对；根据第十段“Nadia smiled. “Good-bye, Myra. I'll save you a seat.””可知，Nadia会给Myra留座位，不是让座位。故D不对。故选B。
