D。她从教师工作上退了下来，然而她一直很忙。B项有一定干扰性。keep rich意思是“富有”，从后文she was even willing to work without pay可以看出B项不合题意。 37. A。从空后的that helped other businesses find jobs for old people可以看出，她提供的是商业服务。 38. B。从空后的By talking with them可以看出，Anna Douglas每天都与很多老年人会面，而不是观察或安慰他们。 39. A。通过与他们交谈，她认识到两件事情。接下来的两句便是她认识到的事情。recognize在这里是“认识到”的意思。 40. D。老年人有未被利用的能力。这是她积极为老年人找工作发挥他们余热的原因。其他答案不合题意。 41. B。然而老年人也有老年人的问题。A项有较大干扰性。从后文我们知道，有一位老年人不受其孙子女的欢迎，这是他面临的问题，而不是错误。 42. D。从后文She began to write a newspaper column called“Sixty Plus”，我们知道，她为国家杂志写人物故事是以前的事。 43. A。联系上下文Old people like herself是报纸的一个话题（subject），因此其它选项不合题意。 44. A。get old在这里为系表结构，其它选项不正确。 45. C。B，D项有较大干扰性。作者举的例子说明很多老年人被其孙子女误解，而不是（他们的要求）被拒绝等。 46. A。从空后的see the truth behind a problem我们得知，Anna Douglas用的是 thinking abilities。 47. C。从下文举的例子看，她明白的是事情的起因，因此其它选项不合题意。 48. B。A项有较大干扰性。从前文我们知道Anna Douglas是靠写文章与老年人交流，而不是建立了咨询中心，因此A项不合题意。 49. C。联系上下文我们可以推知，这位老年人与其孙子女关系并不融洽，因此当他进来时，孩子们就离开。 50. C。她给这位老人建议了几种方法。 51. B。A，C有较大干扰性。从空后的 your grandchildrens world我们得知，想了解孙子女世界的一切是不可能的。 52. A。本空承接and前的分句而来，因此答案应在questioning和listening间选择，选项中没有questioning。 53. B。联系上文Say good things to them and about them得此答案。A项有一定干扰性，空前的Never决定了此选项不正确。 54. D。stick to在这里是“固执地坚持”。A，B均有一定干扰性。联系前文Mrs Douglas认为老人应该多听听孙子女的见解，不要太固执地坚持自己的看法。 speak out意思是“说出”，give up是“放弃”，因此不合题意。 55. A。D有较大干扰性。Naturally意思是“自然而然地”，而Commonly指“通常情况下”。2阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后从3655各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。We may look at the world around us, but somehow we manage not to see it until whatever weve become used to suddenly disappears. 36 , for example, the neatly-dressed woman I 37 to see - or look at - on my way to work each morning.
