答案与解析：
本文是一篇夹叙夹议类的文章。异国的一幅凄惨景象让作者唏嘘不已，于是，作者动了怜悯之心，慷慨解囊。出乎意料的是，对方拒绝了作者的一番好意。作者意识到个人的人生价值观在特定情况下可能并不正确，即使是弱者，也有自己的尊严。
16．A 本文首句的后半句提到作者是在泰国旅游，由此可知作者应该是居住在泰国的“旅馆”中。B、C、D三项不符合语境。
17．D 下文提到这位女士躺在脏兮兮的石头上，看起来好像已经去世，由此可知作者对眼前的景象感到非常震惊。此处shocked意为“震惊的”。A、B、C三项都与下文内容不太相符。
18．A 结合本句后半部分中的内容以及下一句的内容可知，此处是为了突出这位女士的悲惨处境，所以四个选项中只有A项最符合语境，即她穿着“传统的”衣服。
19．C “she might be dead”是thought的同位语从句，对thought的具体内容进行解释说明，此处需要用that。
20．B 上文提到的是作者从远处观察女士，再结合下一句中的内容可知此处是指作者“靠近”女士。A项表示“打招呼”；C项表示“照顾”；D项表示“移动”，均不符合题意。
21．C 作者看到眼前的凄惨景象后产生了怜悯之心，立刻作出“反应”，即将手伸进口袋，拿出一些钱来给对方。故选C项。
22．A 作者与这位女士素昧平生，而对方又躺在脏乱的石头上，似乎已经死去，由此可推断作者小心翼翼地把钱塞进她的手中。B、C、D三项均不符合语境。
23．B 作者看到这位女士已经奄奄一息，所以才慷慨解囊，认为这笔钱能够让她“挺过”几个月。所以 survive“幸存，挺过”符合题意。
24．D 根据下文的内容可知女士并没有接受作者的施舍，由此可知她只是“审视”着这笔钱。
25．A 文章开头部分提到作者是在泰国旅游，由此可推断作者和她无法进行语言沟通。B、C、D三项都不符合语境。
26．A 此处与最后一段最后一句中的“wise”相呼应，即这位女士的眼光中透露出睿智和遗憾。B、C、D三项在文章中都没有信息支持，故可被排除。
27．D 第二段提到女士躺在脏乱的石头上，似乎已经死了；第三段第二句提到她病得非常厉害，由此可知她非常“虚弱地”拒绝了作者的资助。故选D项。
28．C 此处与最后一段最后一句中的“laughed at me”相呼应。A项表示“依赖”；B项表示“照顾”；D项表示“和……争吵”，都不符合语境。
29．B 作者出于好心想帮助对方，未曾想她竟然不肯接受，作者百思不得其解。走了至少一公里后作者才“意识到”自己的愚蠢。故选B项。
30．A 此处与下一句前半部分中的“needed”相呼应。所以A项符合题意。
31．C 作者本来想通过钱来表达自己的同情，没想到对方竟然拒绝，所以作者认真分析这种物质上的“善意”是否可取。此外，第四段最后引号部分中的“kind stranger”也是提示。
32．D 文章开头部分提到作者到泰国旅游，再结合本句中的“Western”一词可知作者是西方人，由此可推断作者当时是用西方人的价值观去帮助那位女士，遭到拒绝后才开始觉得这种价值观受到了挑战。A、B、C三项分别表示“提供”、“分享”、“遵循”，都不符合语境。
33．B 这位漂亮女士给作者上了生动的一课：金钱不是万能的。这个教训将陪伴作者的余生，让作者终生难忘。本句中的“for the rest of my life”是时间状语，表示“余生”。所以carry“携带”符合语境。
34．A 当作者回忆起那次“经历”时，希望自己的脸上也能浮现出那种睿智的微笑。
35．D 那位女士的眼神中透露出嘲笑是以前“曾经”发生的事情。A、B、C三项都与上文内容不符。
Ⅲ.阅读理解
Information has always been at the center of human communication. You may ask why. Well, communication between people contains giving and receiving information. The way we give and receive information today has experienced a revolution in the development of the mass media in the 20th century.
The first truly mass communication medium was the newspaper. For the first time in history people could read about events in their country and from around the world every day. However, there were two problems with newspapers of that time. Firstly, newspapers were available only in large cities, for getting newspapers to the countryside was a difficult and timeconsuming (耗时的) task. Secondly, newspapers weren't always reliable, as there was a limited range of opinions.
Nowadays, we can choose from a wide variety of sources to get information. Television and the Internet have given us the chance to be informed about everything the minute it happens. Large numbers of radio and TV stations, satellite channels and millions of websites help people keep up with the latest news. People live in history and are part of it.
The media have come a long way in the last century and there is no doubt that we now live in the information age. Whatever type of media we choose, it all comes down to the need for information. This will always be a basic need as long as communication is part of human nature.
36. Information is considered the center of human communication because ________.
A. human communication means information exchange
B. human communication involves people's participation
C. information is now experiencing a revolution
D. information helps people gather together
37. What was the historical contribution of the newspaper as a source of information?
A. It made the mass communication truly develop.
B. It helped the mass communication develop in cities.
C. It kept people timely informed about home and world events.
D. It kept reliable information available in big cities.
38. The third paragraph mainly tells us that technology helps ________.
A. information easily available
B. people be part of history
C. inform everything timely
D. produce the latest news
39. It can be concluded from the last paragraph that a basic need today is ________.
A. communication B. information
C. high technology D. media types
答案与解析：
信息总是处于人类交流的中心位置，因为人类之间的交流包含着收发信息。人们无论选择何种媒体，归根到底都是为了获取信息。
36．A 细节理解题。由文章第一段的communication between people contains giving and receiving information可知，选A项。
37．C 推理判断题。本题问的是报纸的历史贡献。第二段的第二句讲到，历史上，人们第一次有机会每天读到发生在国内外的事件，由此可知选C项。
