Question

【题目】根据短文理解，选择正确答案。
Arriving in Sydney on his own from India, my husband, Rashid, stayed in a hotel for a short time while looking for a house for me and our children.
During the first week of his stay, he went out one day to do some shopping. He came back in the late afternoon to discover that his suitcase was gone. He was extremely worried as the suitcase had all his important papers, including his passport.
He reported the case to the police and then sat there, lost and lonely in the strange city, thinking of the terrible troubles of getting all the paperwork organized again from a faraway country while trying to settle down in a new one.
Late in the evening, the phone rang. It was a stranger. He was trying to pronounce my husband's name and was asking him a lot of questions. Then he said they had found a pile(堆) of papers in their trash can(垃圾桶) that had been left out on the footpath.
My husband rushed to their home to find a kind family holding all his papers and documents(文件). Their young daughter had gone to the trash can and found a pile of unfamiliar(不熟悉的) papers. Her parents had carefully sorted them out, although they had found mainly foreign addresses on most of the documents. At last they had seen a half-written letter in the pile in which my husband had given his new telephone number to a friend.
That family not only restored the important documents to us that day but also restored our faith and trust in people. We still remember their kindness and often send a warm wish their way.

【解析】这是一篇记叙文，作者的丈夫着急寻找丢失的文件包，幸运的是，有人打电话给送了回来。原来是那家人的小孩在垃圾桶旁边发现了这些文件，然后给送还了回来，通过这件事作者一家又找回了对人的信任。
⑴考查细节理解。根据第一段中的“Rashid stayed in a hotel for a short time while looking for a short time while looking for a house可知，Rashid在旅馆待了很短一段时间就出去给家人找房子了。故选B。
⑵考查细节理解。根据倒数第二段中的”At last they had seen a half-written letter in the pile in which my husband had given his new telephone number to a friend.“可知，陌生人一家是通过作者丈夫文件中的一封信，得知他的电话号码的，故选C。
⑶考查词义猜测。根据倒数第二段中的”My husband rushed to their home to find a kind family holding all his papers and documents.“可知，那家人把捡到的文件送还给作者的丈夫，应该是“归还”文件，由故选D。
⑷考查主旨大意。本文述了作者的丈夫丢失的物品被扔到了垃圾箱，但是一个好心的家庭却把那些文件整理好送还给作者的丈夫，这些别人眼里的垃圾对作者的丈夫来说非常重要，由此判断C项合题意。
