Question

【題目】根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，選擇最佳答案。
I was sure that I was to be killed. I became terribly nervous. I fumbled(摸索) in my pockets to see if there were any cigarettes, which had escaped their search. I found one and because of my shaking hands, I could barely get it to my lips. But I had no matches, they had taken those. I looked through the bars at the guard. He did not make eye contact with me. I called out to him “Have you got a light?” He looked at me, shrugged and came over to light my cigarette. As he came close and lit the match, his eyes unconsciously locked with mine. At that moment, I smiled. I don't know why I did that. Perhaps it was nervousness, perhaps it was because, when you get very close, one to another, it is very hard not to smile. In any case, I smiled. In that instant, it was as though a spark jumped across the gap between our two hearts, our two human souls. I know he didn't want to, but my smile leaped through the bars and caused a smile on his lips, too. He lit my cigarette but stayed near, looking at me directly in the eyes and continuing to smile.
I kept smiling at him, now thinking of him as a person and not just a guard. "Do you have kids?" he asked. “Yes, here, here.” I took out my wallet and nervously fumbled for the pictures of my family. He, too, took out the pictures of his family and began to talk about his plans and hopes for them. My eyes filled with tears. I said that I feared that I'd never see my family again, never have the chance to see them grow up. Tears came to his eyes, too. Suddenly, without another word, he unlocked my cell and silently led me out. Out of the prison, quietly and by back routes, out of the town. There, at the edge of town, he released me. And without another word, he turned back toward the town.

（4）A
【解析】本文講述作者被捕后關(guān)押在牢房里，原以為即將死去，沒(méi)想到一個(gè)無(wú)意間的微笑拯救了自己的性命。
（1）推理判斷。由文章第一段第三句I fumbled in my pockets to see if there were any cigarettes, which had escaped their search.可推知，作者翻遍了口袋，終于找到一支沒(méi)被他們搜走的香煙，故可推斷，作者之前被人搜過(guò)身，故選C。
（2） 推理判斷。由文章第一段可推知，作者想到自己明天就要沒(méi)命了，不禁陷入極端惶恐，于是點(diǎn)了一支煙，釋放自己緊張的情緒。A項(xiàng)即便是作者不吸煙，他也可能死；C項(xiàng)在那樣一種情況下，作者吸煙僅是為了和警衛(wèi)聊天不符合邏輯；D項(xiàng)文章根本沒(méi)有提及作者以前有吸煙的嗜好。故選B。
（3） 細(xì)節(jié)理解。由文章第二段Suddenly, without another word, he unlocked my cell and silently led me out. 以及Out of the jail, quietly and by back routes, out of the town.可知，警衛(wèi)二話(huà)沒(méi)說(shuō)打開(kāi)了牢門(mén)，悄悄地帶他從后面的小路逃離了監(jiān)獄，出了小鎮(zhèn)。所以，作者根本沒(méi)有想到警衛(wèi)把自己給放走，故選D。
（4） 推理判斷。由文章第一段In any case, I smiled. In that instant, it was as though a spark jumped across the gap between our two hearts, our two human souls.”可推知，不知怎么了，作者笑了。在那一剎那間，這抹微笑如同火花般，打破了他們心靈間的隔閡。以及第二段主要講述是微笑拉近了他們的距離，通過(guò)簡(jiǎn)短的談話(huà)，讓彼此產(chǎn)生了共鳴，以至于最后警衛(wèi)把作者給放了，都足以證明是微笑拯救了作者的性命，故選A。
