Ⅰ.阅读理解
If there is one thing in life that we could choose not to experience, it is the death of someone we love. Losing a friend or family member is heartbreaking and hard to accept, but how we deal with it, and how we “move on”, varies(不同) from person to person.
Of course, no one can avoid dying, but sometimes we feel the one we love has passed away too early. So we feel sad. Even though we may be encouraged to accept the truth, our grief(悲伤) will last a while. But grief is a very natural human response(反应) to loss and can take the form of many unexpected emotions, from shock to anger and disbelief.
When someone dies, we may be told to put on a brave face and hide our feelings. But experts say that this is the time to talk about feelings—you can cry to show your pain. It helps you feel better. There’s nothing wrong with trying to keep the memory of the one you love. You can talk to them in your head, write them a letter or share memories of them with other people who know them.
Whatever method you use to keep someone’s memory alive, the pain caused by losing a loved one will disappear at last. But the memories of that person and the time you shared can stay with you forever, and talking about them and expressing your feelings is part of the healing(康复) process. After all, loss is something that we never get over.

答案
Ⅰ.【主旨大意】 当我们所爱的人离我们而去后,我们会感到极度悲伤。当他人希望我们接受现实、继续生活的时候,我们往往仍沉浸在悲伤中,不愿面对未来。本文讨论了敞开心扉、与他人分享自己感受的益处。
1.C 推理判断题。由文章第一段第一句“If there is one thing in life that we could choose not to experience, it is the death of someone we love.”及第二段第一句“Of course, no one can avoid dying…”可推断出,有朝一日我们的亲人最终会离我们而去,这是我们必须要面对的事情。
2.A 词义猜测题。根据画线词后“from shock to anger and disbelief”可知是不同的情绪,故emotions表示“情绪”的意思。
3.D 细节理解题。由第三段中的“But experts say that this is the time to talk about feelings—you can cry to show your pain.” 可知,哭泣可以帮我们应对悲伤。
4.B 细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“But the memories of that person and the time you shared can stay with you forever”可知,我们可以永远保留对某人的记忆。
