Question

【題目】閱讀理解
My decision to travel around China lay merely with my curiosity about the place. Before coming here, China seemed alien to me ----a place that expected to be hugely dissimilar from my own British culture.
After travelling from Beijing up to Xi'an, I wanted to challenge myself by choosing a smaller town----Xiahe in Gansu Province. I arrived in Lanzhou at around 5 am, but there were no buses to Xiahe. I managed to spot a policeman and attempted to explain my destination to him in simple English, praying that he would understand. I wasn't sure that he did but I just followed him anyway as I had no choice. He took me on a bus and I didn't know where I was going. Luckily, I met a student who explained to me in English that the policeman was taking me to another bus station where I could take a bus to Xiahe. During this conversation a third man said he was also a policeman and would help me buy tickets. But as he was not in uniform, I was a little doubtful. The uniformed policeman told me it was OK to go with the third man, so I got off the bus with the so-called policeman who at this point, disappeared and I was left in the middle of nowhere. I stood panicking. Around one minute later a police car came and stopped right by me. It was the un-uniformed policeman. I got into the car and he dropped me directly at the bus station, and helped me buy the ticket.
This is one of many experiences that I have had in China. I realized that however different this culture was, there was one thing that would always stand out—kindness. In the west we seem to lack the foundation of trust, yet in China it seems that there will always be someone to answer your questions and lead you the right way.

【解析】本文是一篇說明文，講述一個英國人對于中國印象。
（1）考查詞義猜測。根據(jù)第一段中的“a place that expected to be hugely dissimilar from my own British culture.”可知作者對中國是陌生的，認(rèn)為那是一個與自己的英國文化有巨大差異的地方，故選陌生的，選C。
（2）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第二段中的“But as he was not in uniform, I was a little doubtful.”可知作者對于穿制服的自稱警察的人有所懷疑，故選A項(xiàng)。
（3）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第二段中的“Around one minute later a police car came and stopped right by me. It was the un-uniformed policeman. I got into the car and he dropped me directly at the bus station.”可知他消失的原因是去找車接作者去車站，故選B項(xiàng)。
（4）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)最后一段中的“there was one thing that would always stand out—kindness.”在中國，人們的友善給作者留下深刻印象，故選D項(xiàng)。
