It was just a windy January day here in the North East of Scotland. When I left home for the office where I worked in the next town, the weather forecasters said, “Windy and cold, but no rain.” However, by the time I was about to leave work in the early evening, it was pouring!
My office was close to the bus stop so that there was no problem; I just shot out the door and onto the bus. Unfortunately, once I got home to Montrose, I had about a mile to walk from the bus stop to my home.
As I stepped off the bus that night to walk home, I struggled to get my tiny umbrella to go up in the strong wind. It was obviously designed for a very light shower. Then, suddenly and to my amazement, I heard my mum’s voice.
“Quickly! Come under here, before you get soaked! ”
I nipped（跑） under my bigger umbrella and stared at mum in surprise. “What on earth are you doing here in this weather?” I asked her. My mum was eighty-three that year, and although fit and healthy, she did not usually like going out in strong wind and heavy rain. “You said to come round for tea tonight, but I came early before the rain got too heavy. Eric told me that your car was in for a service and I saw your big umbrella lying on the chair. Eric was on the phone, so I just picked it up and came out so that I could meet you and you would not get soaked!’’
My mum passed away the following year. This simple act remains in my mind, and reminds me how completely my mum loved me. She would not have gone out in the wind and rain for herself, but, at eighty-three, she never gave a second thought about the bad weather so I would not get wet.

(答案→)B 解析：文章讲述的是作者下班后遇到大雨，无奈只能被淋湿，突然发现83岁高龄的母亲在雨中撑着一把伞等他，由此作者被深深地感动了，体会到了无私的母爱。【小题1】推理判断题。根据第五段My mum was eighty-three that year, and although fit and healthy可知，作者的母亲虽然83岁高龄，但是很健康【小题2】事实细节题。根据第五段she did not usually like going out in strong wind and heavy rain可知，他的母亲不喜欢在刮风下雨的天气出门的，所以在下了大雨的情况下看到他的母亲，他会感到很惊讶。【小题3】推理判断题。根据倒数第二段Eric was on the phone可知，他在忙着打电话关于工作方面的事情。【小题4】主旨大意题。作者在最最需要帮助的时候，听到了母亲的声音，感受到了无私的母爱，，所以D选项最能表达作者当时的心情。

我明天再问问老师，叫他解释下这个问题
