10.One day,when I was working as a psychologist in England,an adolescent boy showed up in my office.It was David.He kept walking up and down restlessly,his face pale,and his hands shaking slightly.His head teacher had referred him to me."This boy has lost his family,"he wrote."He is understandably very sad and refuses to talk to others,and I'm very worried about him.Can you help?"
I looked at David and showed him to a chair.How could I help him?There are problems psychology doesn't have the answer to,and which no words can describe.Sometimes the best thing one can do is to listen openly and sympathetically.
The first two times we met,David didn't say a word.He sat there,only looking up to look at the children's drawings on the wall behind me.I suggested we play a game of chess.He nodded.After that he played chess with me every Wednesday afternoon-in complete silence and without looking at me.It's not easy to cheat in chess,but I admit I made sure David won once or twice.
Usually,he arrived earlier than agreed,took the chess board and pieces from the shelf and began setting them up before I even got a chance to sit down.It seemed as if he enjoyed my company.But why did he never look at me?
"Perhaps he simply needs someone to share his pain with,"I thought."Perhaps he senses that I respect his suffering."Some months later,when we were playing chess,he looked up at me suddenly.
"It's your turn,"he said.
After that day,David started talking.He got friends in school and joined a bicycle club.He wrote to me a few times,about his biking with some friends,and about his plan to get into university.Now he had really started to live his own life.
Maybe I gave David something.But I also learned that one-without any words-can reach out to another person.All it takes is a hug,a shoulder to cry on,a friendly touch,and an ear that listens.

分析 本文属于记叙文阅读,作者通过这篇文章主要向我们描述了戴维因为失去了家人而非常伤心,拒绝与别人交流,"我"作为一名心理医生成功地使他恢复了正常."我"采取的方法就是跟他下棋,让他感受到"我"理解他的痛苦.人与人的交流不只是通过语言,也可能是一个拥抱、一个哭泣时可以依靠的肩膀、一次友好的接触或者一只耐心倾听的耳朵.
解答 47.C.细节理解题.根据文章第一段中的He kept walking up and down restlessly,his face pale,and his hands shaking slightly.可知,第一次见面时,他表现得非常紧张.戴维失去了亲人,故不是"感到兴奋"或者"精力充沛地散步",排除A项和B项.根据His head teacher had referred him to me.以及he wrote可知,他的老师把他介绍给作者,但没有陪着他来,故D项错误;故选C.
48.A.推理判断题.根据第二段最后一句Sometimes the best thing one can do is to listen openly and sympathetically,有时候你能做的最好的事情就是倾听.可知,作者准备去做一名倾听者;故选A.
49.B.推理判断题.根据第五段中"Perhaps he simply needs someone to share his pain with,"可知,他喜欢和作者下棋,或许是因为他需要一个人来分担他的痛苦;故选B.
50.A.推理判断题.根据文章第七段"David started talking.He got friends in school and joined a bicycle club.He wrote to me a few times,about his biking with some friends"可知,与作者沉默地待了几个月之后,戴维开口跟作者说话了,之后,他的生活逐渐恢复了正常;故选A.
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.
