The moving truck with furniture was parked in front of our Southern California home. My husband and I were sweeping out the open garage when a woman from a house across the street came up to us with an apple pie.
“Welcome to the neighbourhood，” she said. “I made it myself and I want you to have it.”
“Really, we can't.” , my husband replied.
“Of course you can，” she ran on. “When I moved in two years ago no one welcomed me, and I want you to feel at home.” She thrust(塞) the pie into my husband's hands.
“Uh, well, you see，”he said, with a disappointed laugh, “we have been here four years and we're moving.”
The woman stared at him, dumbfounded (目瞪口呆), with her mouth open.
“Well，” she said, shrugging(聳肩) her shoulders with an air of resignation(順從), “Enjoy it anyway!”
My husband and I laughed heartily, determining in the future to be better neighbours ourselves.
文章大意：本文通過講述一個發(fā)生在作者搬家離開時的小故事，反映了西方國家日益淡薄的人際關(guān)系。
1.The woman came up to us because ________.
A.she wanted to see us off
B.she wanted to see our furniture
C.she wanted to sell her pie to us
D.she thought we had just arrived here
答案：D 細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)“Welcome to the neighbourhood”可推知這位鄰居還以為作者是新來的，故此題答案為D。
2.The sentence “Really, we can't” exactly means ________.
A.neither the writer nor her husband could accept the apple pie
B.we didn't like eating the apple pie
C.we were so busy that we had no time to eat it
D.we are full. We needn't eat it
答案：A 推理判斷題。根據(jù)上下文的意思可以推斷出來作者夫婦都不會接受the apple pie。
3.The phrase “feel at home” in the passage probably means ________.
A.live at home B.feel comfortable
C.help oneself to it D.be brave
答案：B 詞義猜測題�！癴eel at home”本意是“感覺像在家里一樣”，引申為“賓至如歸，無拘無束，感覺舒服”等意思。故答案為B。
4.When the woman knew the writer and her husband were moving, she felt ________.
A.excited B.embarrassed
C.angry D.disappointed
答案：B 推理判斷題。滿心歡喜地拿著自己做的apple pie歡迎新鄰居，結(jié)果對方是準備搬離這個小區(qū)，此時的“尷尬”遠大于“失望”。
5.Personal relationship in western countries is ________.
A.important B.valuable
C.necessary D.hardly thinkable
答案：D 推理判斷題。作者在這里住了四年，現(xiàn)在要搬走了，而鄰居卻以為他們是新搬來的，可見西方國家的人際關(guān)系非常淡薄，難以置信。

4.were attracted。所填詞在句中作謂語，they和attract為被動關(guān)系，事情發(fā)生在過去，故用一般過去時的被動語態(tài)。
5.to 表示“向某人表示感謝”用express one's thanks to sb.。
6.delicately 此處修飾arrange，故用其副詞形式。
7.a a bit“一點”是固定用法，此處表示“有點兒吃驚”。
8.did 此處強調(diào)謂語動詞make，且事情發(fā)生在過去，故用did。
9.unaware 此處意為“沒有意識到我工作的辛勞”，故用aware的反義詞。
