3．The first full choir rehearsal（唱诗班排练）of the school year took place in the school hall．All the students joined together to sing．I watched as my elder sister and her grade came in and took their places next to us on the stage．Meanwhile，I could hear laughing．Some students were pointing at a girl standing next to my sister．I'd never seen this girl before．A girl whispered in my ear，"Did you know she's wearing diapers（纸尿裤）？"
After school that evening，I asked my sister about the girl I'd seen．She told me her name was Theresa and that she was a very nice girl．"Why were those kids being mean（刻薄） to her？"I asked．"Because they're stupid，"she said．
One day，I was walking home from school when I heard voices and laughter behind me．"There's the little fool's sister．Does your sister wet her pants too？"I walked a little faster and then I felt a stone hit me in the back．When I got home，I ran down to my sister's room．
I pushed my way into her room，screaming at her．"Why do you have to be that girl's friend？I don't see anyone else being nice to her．"Janelle yelled back，"Because she's a wonderful person and she's dying!"I will remember those words as long as I live．Theresa wet her pants because she had an illness，which was killing her．My sister was the only one nice enough to be her friend．A few months later，Theresa passed away．
I felt proud that Janelle was my sister．Throughout the years I watched her，and she always made friends with everyone．It didn't matter if they were fat，thin，lever or not．She never left anyone feeling isolated（被孤立） or alone．It was she who changed me and taught me never to look at anyone in the same way again．

分析 我的姐姐公平地对待每一个人，没有因为的怪异行为而轻视对方，她对我有很大的影响是我心中的英雄．
解答 32．C推理判断题．根据第一段最后一句话A girl whispered in my ear，"Did you know she's wearing diapers（纸尿裤）？"可知这个小女孩还穿着纸尿裤，这一行为不合常理，所以引起了人们的嘲笑，所以答案选C．
33．D细节理解题．根据第四段的Janelle yelled back，"Because she's a wonderful person and she's dying!"I will remember those words as long as I live．可知作者得知穿纸尿裤是因为有严重的疾病，从此以后我就改变了看法，所以答案选D．
34．A推理判断题．作者在本文中讲述了很多人因为小女孩的不合理的行为而嘲笑她，实际上她是患有疾病才不得不穿，告诉我们不要浅薄地看待别人，人们做不同的事情都有自己的原因，所以答案选A．
35．B标题概括题．根据文章最后一段可知我的姐姐对我有很大的影响，教会我不要看不起任何人，要尊重每个人．最后一句It was she who changed me and taught me never to look at anyone in the same way again．正如她改变了我，对于我来说是我的英雄，所以答案选B．
点评 本篇文章通过姐姐的行为影响了我的思想，是故事性的阅读理解．在阅读时要抓住文章的主题和细节，分析文章结构，根据上下文内在联系，挖掘文章的深层含义，对于暗含在文章中的人物的行为动机，事件中的因果关系及作者未言明的倾向、意图、态度、观点等要进行合乎逻辑的判断、推理、分析，进一步增强理解能力，抓住材料实质性的东西．
