Question

There were smiling children all the way. Clearly they knew at what time the train passed their homes and they made it their business to stand along the railway, wave to complete strangers and cheer them up as they rushed towards Penang. Often whole families stood outside their homes and waved and smiled as if those on the trains were their favorite relatives. This is the simple village people of Malaysia. I was moved*.
I had always traveled to Malaysia by plane or car, so this was the first time I was on a train. I did not enjoy the long train journey and had brought along many magazines to read and reread. I looked about the train. There was not one familiar face. I sat down and started to read magazines.
It was not long before the train was across the Causeway and in Malaysia. Johore Baru was just a city like Singapore, so I was tired of looking at the crowds of people as they hurried past. As we went beyond* the city, I watched the straight rows of rubber trees and miles and miles of green. Then the first village came into sight. Immediately I came alive, I decided to wave back.
From then on my journey became interesting. I threw my magazines into the waste basket and decided to join in Malaysian life. Then everything came alive. The mountains seemed to speak to me. Even the trees were smiling. I stared at everything as if I was looking at it for the first time.
The day passed fast and I even forgot to have my lunch until I felt hungry. I looked at my watch and was surprised that it was 3:00 pm. Soon the train pulled up at Butterworth. When my uncle arrived, I threw my arms around him to give him a warm hug. I had never done this before. He seemed surprised and then his face warmed up with a huge smile. We walked arm in arm to his car.
I looked forward to the return journey.

試題解析:本文大意：.一路上有微笑著的孩子們，很明顯他們知道火車什么時候經過他們的家，他們站在鐵路沿線向陌生人揮手，經常是全家人站在家門外，揮手微笑，就像火車上的人是他們最喜愛的親戚一樣，這只是馬來西亞的普通村民，我被感動了。我常乘飛機或汽車去馬來西亞，這是第一次坐火車。我不喜歡長途火車旅行所以買了很多書，看了又看。當第一個村莊進入我的視野時，當時所有的東西都變得活躍起來。立刻我變得活躍起來，我決定向他們揮手，甚至樹也在微笑。等到下車時，我給了我的叔叔一個擁抱，他似乎很吃驚，然后他的臉因大大的微笑而變暖。我期盼返程。
