One Monday morning, I was waiting at the bus stop in Harvard Square. It was very cold, about -8℃.

"What would go wrong with my husband's operation （手术）?" "Will I get to him before it starts?"
Among the others at the bus stop was a woman who was about 50 years old. She wore an old hat, an old pair of boots and a dark coat, but she had no gloves （手套）. Another woman who looked younger came to the older woman and said, "Your hands must be very cold. You will get frostbite （生冻疮） in this weather if you don't wear gloves." With these words, she dropped her heavy bag to the ground. After a while, she took out a pair of purple gloves from her bag, took the older woman's hands and gently placed a glove on each hand. "Thank you. You're so kind." The old woman said again and again.
I was deeply moved （感动） by this act of kindness. A moment ago, I was feeling sorry for myself, but now I felt hopeful and optimistic （乐观）. I thought in this world there were still many people in trouble who were in great need of our help.

3．阅读理解
If you do not use your arms or your legs for some time, they will become weak; when you start using them again, they slowly become strong again. Everybody knows that. Yet many people do not seem to know that memory （记忆） works in the same way. When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by using it. When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough chance （机会） to become strong.
If a friend says that his arms and legs are weak, we know that it is his own fault （过错）. But if he tells to us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his parents may be to blame （责备）, and few of us know that it is just his own fault. Have you ever found that some people can't read or write but usually they have better memories? This is because they cannot read or write, they have to remember the things. Since they cannot write them down in a small notebook, they have to remember days, names, songs and stories. Therefore, their memory is being exercised the whole time.
So if you want to have a good memory, learn from the people：practise remembering things as other people do.
（1）Someone can't have a good memory if ________.
A. he can't read or write
B. he doesn't use his memory
C. his parents don't have a good memory
D. he doesn't use his arms or legs for some time （2）If you do not use your arms or legs for some time, ________.
A. you can't use them any more
B. they will become stronger
C. they become weak but they will slowly become strong again
D. they become weak and won't become strong until you use them again
（3）Which of the following is TRUE?
A. Your memory works in the different way as your arms or legs.
B. A good memory comes from less practice.
C. Don't learn how to read or write if you want to have a better memory.
D. Your memory becomes weak if you do not give it enough chance for practice.
（4）The writer wants to tell us ________.
A. how to use our arms or legs
B. how to read and write
C. how to have a good memory
D. how to learn from the people
【答案】（1）B
（2）D
（3）D
（4）C
【解析】【分析】文章大意：本文主要讲述的死用进废退的道理，最后告诉我们如果要想提高记忆力好像别人那样联系记忆东西。

（1）细节理解题，根据 When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough chance （机会） to become strong. 可知当其他人说他的记忆不好，他真正的意思是他没有给它足够的机会变得强大，也就是用得少，或者不用。

故答案是B。

（2）细节理解题，根据 If you do not use your arms or your legs for some time, they will become weak; when you start using them again, they slowly become strong again. 可知如果你一段时间不用你的胳膊或者腿，他们将会变弱，当你开始使用他们的时候，他们又会慢慢地变得强壮。

故答案是D。

（3）正误判断题，根据根据 When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough chance （机会） to become strong. 可知当其他人说他的记忆不好，他真正的意思是他没有给它足够的机会变得强大。

因此D的叙述是正确的，故答案是D。

（4）主旨大意题，本文通过用手和腿做例子，告诉我们如何增强记忆力。

故答案是C。

【点评】考查阅读理解。

本文涉及细节题、正误判断题和主旨题三种常考题型，细节题要注意从文中寻找答案；正误判断也是细节理解题的一种变形，也要从文章中选找答案；主旨题需要通读全文，了解大意之后找出中心思想。
