A nurse took the tired, anxious serviceman to the bedside. “Your son is here,”she said to the old man. She had to repeat the words several times before the patient’s eyes opened.
Heavily drugged with sleep because of the pain of his heart attack, he dimly(隐约) saw the young uniformed Marine standing outside the oxygen tent. He reached out with his hand. The Marine wrapped his toughened fingers around the old man’s weak ones, expressing a message of love and encouragement. The nurse brought a chair so that the Marine could sit beside the bed.
All through the night the young Marine sat there in the poorly lighted ward(病房), holding the old man’s hand and offering him words of love and strength. Occasionally, the nurse suggested that the Marine move away and rest a while. He refused. Now and then she heard him say a few gentle words. The dying man said nothing, only holding tightly to his son all through the night. Along towards dawn, the old man died.
The Marine released the now lifeless hand he had been holding and went to tell the nurse. While she did what she had to do, he waited.
Finally, she returned. She started to offer words of sympathy, but the Marine interrupted her.“Who was that man?”he asked. The nurse was surprised. “He was your father,”she answered. “No, he wasn’t,”the Marine replied. “I never saw him before in my life.”“Then why didn’t you say something when I took you to him?”asked the nurse. “I knew right away there had been a mistake, but I also knew he needed his son, and his son just wasn’t here. When I realized that he was too sick to tell whether or not I was his son, knowing how much he needed me, I stayed.”he answered.
【小题1】Why did the nurse take the Marine to the old man’s bed?

A.Because he was the old man’s son.
B.Because she knew that he was a warm-hearted man.
C.Because she couldn’t find anyone else there.
D.Because she thought he was the old man’s son.
【小题2】Why did the old man hold the Marine’s hand all through the night?
A.Because he knew he would die the next day.
B.Because he hadn’t seen his son for a long time.
C.Because he was dying and mistook him for his son.
D.Because he enjoyed doing that and so did the Marine.
【小题3】Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A.The Marine didn’t know the old man at all.
B.The nurse was careless and made a mistake.
C.The Marine happened to be the old man’s son’s friend.
D.The old man passed away peacefully and contentedly.
【小题4】What can we learn from the passage?
A.The next time someone needs you, be there.
B.All the soldiers are as kind as the Marine.
C.We’d better not correct someone else’s mistakes.
D.The young should accompany their parents all the time.


【小题1】D
【小题2】C
【小题3】C
【小题4】A

解析试题分析:
【小题1】从第一段的句子:A nurse took the tired, anxious serviceman to the bedside. “Your son is here,”和最后一段的句子:“Who was that man?”he asked. The nurse was surprised. “He was your father,”she answered.可知护士以为Marine是老人的儿子,D正确。
【小题2】推理题:从文章中得知老人一直抓住Marine的手,和最后一段的句子:I knew right away there had been a mistake,说明老人肯定是把他当成儿子。选C
【小题3】推理题:从最后一段的“No, he wasn’t,”the Marine replied. “I never saw him before in my life.”可知他和老人并不认识。选C
【小题4】从最后一段的内容我们得到启发,如果有人需要,在那里。选A
考点:考查故事类短文
点评;文章讲述的是护士和老人都把Marine当成老人的儿子,而Marine也没有揭穿,继续充当老人的儿子,陪老人走完最后一程。文章有很强的思想性,同时注意对文章细节的理解和把握。特别是文章最后一段文章,推理出作者的态度和意图。
