    46  B   细节题．根据文章第一 段，"I'm sorry，but I was reading a letter．"可知司机正在读一封信，而没有注意到作者，故选B．
    47   A   猜测词义题．  根据文章第一 段we used to call each other‘Old Friend'-when we'd meet．I'm not much good at writing．"可知司机经常和他的朋友打电话，通信，故选A．
    48    B   细节题．根据文章第二 段There are not too many people who've had such a long friendship 可知可知作者理解司机的感受，保持这么长的友谊的人不多，故选B．作者知道所发生的事，司机搬家，并且非常在乎他的朋友，故ACD是错误的．
    49    C   推断题．  根据文章第二 段．"A couple of weeks ago．""I'm sorry"可知作者说了抱歉，说明几周前司机的朋友去世了．故选C．
    50     B  细节题．根据文章第二 段things come up and we just don't seem to find the time．"可知我们看起来好像没有时间去和朋友们联系，因此作者在到达酒店后给朋友写信并寄出去了，故选B．

    点评 考察学生的细节理解和推理判断能力，做细节理解题时一定要找到文章中的原句，和题干进行比较，再做出正确的选择．在做推理判断题不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实，要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断．
