[对应学生用书P394] Ⅰ.阅读理解 A (2022·长春联考)The other day, I was purchasing some gifts in a store. Standing at the counter was an elderly lady who immediately drew my attention. She looked to be at my mother's age. I smiled to her while noticing her shock of white hair, clear blue eyes behind her glasses and gentle smile. She smiled back and asked, “What's your name？” I replied, “Seena. What's yours？” Her answer was “What a lovely name ! My name is Rose.” After putting away her wallet, Rose searched through her bag and wasn't having an easy time. She asked me, “Would you mind helping me look for something in my bag? It's so heavy, and I can never find anything.” Rose was melting my heart. “Sure. What are you looking for？” I asked. She replied, “I need to find my telephone book so I can call a taxi.” I asked her where she was going, and Rose responded with the “Simpson House”. I felt a warm connection to my new acquaintance(相识) and said, “I pass right by Simpson House. I'd be happy to drive you home.” Rose responded jokingly，“Are you sure I'm a good person？” I replied，“I am as sure as I can be. Let's go.” We walked out to my car and I opened the door for her. She said, “I'm OK getting in but I need some help with the seatbelt.” It reminded me of all the times my mom waited for my assistance to get into my car. Once we were driving, Rose said, “In all my years nobody ever offered to give me a ride. I feel blessed to know you.” Rose did most of the talking, and we laughed a lot. We arrived at her place. I got out of the car to meet her on the passenger's side and to open her door. She said, “I can get out.” Rose's parting words were “I hope I see you again.” and mine were “I would like that.” With a wave, we both walked away.
