Arizona機場傷心痛苦時，旁人的態(tài)度，使得作者想在學(xué)校組織善行，讓學(xué)生們用自己的善意去幫助那些需要幫助的人。（1）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第四段中的“AndhereisthepartI'llneverforgetaboutHelga'sstory.For2hoursshesatandweptwhilethousandswalkedtoandfrointheairport.

”可知作者對Helga哭泣時來來往往的人漠不關(guān)心的態(tài)度印象深刻，受到了觸動，故選C。（2）考查詞義猜測。根據(jù)第五段中的“

Wespendsomuchtimeworryingaboutourproblems,ourlives,ourinsecurities,gettingtoourflightsowewalkbyorignorepeopleinneedofhelp.”可知，我們總是過多的關(guān)注自己，所以行善不是我們通常做事的方式，可推知選A。（3）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第五段中的“
