Just a Little Smile
Mark was walking home from school one day when he saw the boy in front of turn fall over and drop all of the books he was carrying, along with two sweaters, a basketball and a walkman (随身听). Mark stopped and helped the boy pick up these things. Since they were going the same way, he helped to carry some of his things. As they walked, Mark knew that the boy’s name was Bill, that he loved computer games, basketball and history, and that he was having lots of troubles with his other subjects and that he had just broken up with his girlfriend.
They arrived at Bill’s home first and Mark was invited(邀请) in for a Coke and to watch some television. The afternoon passed happily with a few laughs and some small talk, then Mark went home. They often saw . each other at school, had lunch together once or twice, and then they both finished middle school. They ended up in the same high school where they sometimes saw and talked with each other over the years. At last just three weeks before they finished high school, Bill asked Mark if they could talk.
Bill asked Mark if he still remembered the day years ago when they had first met. "Did you ever think why I was carrying so many things home that day?" asked Bill. "You see, I cleaned out my locker(锁柜) because I didn’t want to leave anything for anyone else. I had put away some of my mother’s sleeping pills and I was going home to kill myself. But after we spent some time together talking and laughing, ! began to understand that if I killed myself, I would have missed that time and so many others that might follow. So you see, Mark, when you picked up those books that day, you did a lot more. You saved my life. "

解析
1. D 细节题的考查。根据Mark was walking home from school及they were going the same way可知他们都是从学校回家，故答案选D。
2. B 根据下文along with two sweaters, a basketball and a walkman (随身听)能明显推断出他喜欢运动和音乐，因为里面提到了篮球和随身听，故选B。而从he was having lots of troubles with his other subjects可知其它答案错误。
3. A 细节题，根据They often saw . each other at school, had lunch together可知他们常在学校见面，并吃饭，故选A。
4. C 定位到这个短语，根据下面的girlfriend可知是分手的意思。此词是由break的过去分词加up 构成，不难猜出选C。
5. D 从下文看，Bill本来是要回去自杀的，但是由于Mark的一个小小的举动，让他明白了许多，而Mark并不知道，故选D。
