36．A[细节推断题。根据第一段第二句

“...atagasstationabout50milesfromOklahomaCity，

whereIwasplanningtostopandvisitafriend.”where引导的

定语从句是修饰OklahomaCity，去OklahomaCity是为了拜

访一个朋友。]

37．B[词义猜测题。根据上一句“...payingforgas”和后面的

“...g《观书有感》 oneonlyafewmiles”可知tookoff是“离开”的意思，选项

B中的moveoff也是“离开”的意思。turnoff关掉；putup拿

起；setup设立。]

38．C[细节推断题。从第二段最后两句

“Theysaidtheywouldtakemetomyfriend’s.”和

“...whenIgotoutofthecar”可知老夫妇把作者送到了朋友

家。]

39．C[细节推断题。从第四段第二句中的

“I’dleftthelightsonallday.”可知作者忘记关掉车灯，灯亮了一

天，所以电池没电了。]

40．D[主旨大意题。作者讲了两个接受了他人的帮助并向帮

助自己的人表示感谢的故事，接受别人的帮助后写信表示感谢

对帮助自己的人是一种回馈，会使别人感到帮助别人是有意义

的。特别是最后一句

“Theyareeasytosayandmeansomuch.”点出了主旨。]
