A Light in the Darkness
We were moving to a new state after my husband had been out of work for many months and we had no money.In fact，we had to borrow money to reach our destination town.Anyway，it was my husband,2 boys aged 4 and 2，and myself,7 months pregnant(怀孕的)，in an old Volvo station wagon(旅行车)．We had been driving for 2 days in the middle of winter (the car’s heater didn’t work)，and we had taken a route that was very desolate.There was nothing around for miles—no cars，buildings，or signs of civilization.Suddenly，our car started losing power and the gauges(仪表) went all out of order.We saw a light in the distance and managed to roll to a stop in front of this property that looked like a small simple house.Our cell phones had not gotten reception for many miles，and it was freezing outside，so I didn’t know if we were going to make it out of this situation alive. My husband got out of the car to see if there was something he could do to get us rolling again，but it was not looking good.A short while later，a man came out of the residence and spoke with my husband a bit before inviting us all into his home.He and his wife took us in，fed us，and made us feel at home as we struggled to find some way to get to our destination，which was still a few hours’ drive away. We were able to call a friend and get a ride，leaving our broken car behind，but not before the couple gave us food and water for our journey.One week later，this dear sweet couple pulled our car all the way to our place and refused to take anything in return，except for us to pay it forward...and we have，and will continue to do so forever.

2．The underlined word “desolate” probably means ________.
A．deserted
B．advanced
C．smooth
D．muddy
答案 A
解析 词义猜测题。根据下文“There was nothing around for miles—no cars，buildings，or signs of civilization.”可知，这条路空无一人，很荒凉，故选择deserted。
3．Knowing that the wagon had broken down，the author ________.
A．called her friends several miles away for help
B．stopped the car in front of a simple service station
C．was afraid that they couldn’t overcome the difficulty
D．encouraged her husband and children to be confident
答案 C
解析 推理判断题。根据“...so I didn’t know if we were going to make it out of this situation alive.”推断，在如此艰难的情况下，作者担心难以摆脱困境。
4．We can infer from the text that the family ________.
A．got out of their financial difficulty
B．met with more troubles after that
C．came back to thank the couple who had helped them
D．followed the couple’s example in return for their help
答案 D
解析 推理判断题。根据文章最后一句判断，在对方谢绝了他们的酬谢后，作者一家决定采用同样的方式帮助他人，以此回报那对夫妇的善行。
文章中的2个阅读障碍句分析
1．My husband got out of the car to see if there was something he could do to get rolling again，but it was not looking good.
句式分析：该句中的but引导了一个并列句；if引导了一个宾语从句；he could do是一个省略了关系代词that的定语从句，修饰先行词something。
自主翻译：我丈夫从车里出来去看一下是否他能做点什么让车再发动起来，但看上去情况不妙。
2．He and his wife took us in，fed us，and made us feel at home as we struggled to find some way to get to our destination，which was still a few hours’ drive away.
句式分析：该句中as引导了一个时间状语从句；which引导了一个非限制性定语从句，修饰先行词our_destination。
自主翻译：当我们努力想办法到达还有几个小时车程的目的地的时候，他和他妻子领我们进了他家，给我们饭吃，让我们感觉就像在家里一样。

参考范文
Helping others is considered as treasured virtue of human kind，which definitely brings us tremendous happiness.Whoever lives in the world depends on others’ help，which is necessary and important.
I’ve received a lot of help from other people，which enables me to overcome the difficulties and troubles in my way.I once failed an important exam，as a result of which I almost lost heart.It was the encouragement and comfort of my classmates that cheered me up.Not until then did I realize what help really meant.From then on，I began to do what I can to help others in need，which both benefited me as well as others.
As the saying
goes，“Roses given，fragrance in hand.” We should always be ready to give others a hand in return for their help.Only in this way can we truly live in a world of love.
