Answer 1

45-48 BCBB

解析:

45．B 考查寫作目的。位于文章的開頭，且又根據下文所講述的內容：查理就是一個天生有 囊胞性纖維癥的人，以及他是如何與疾病抗爭并過著快樂生活，同時又用一部電影中的人物的故事講述了生活態度的重要。故所設問題是為了吸引讀的對話題的關注，故選B。

46．C 細節理解題。由Charley was fortunate to have many care- givers可知。A沒有被提及。B與D與文章所述不符。

47．B 推理判斷題。由第一段知Charley身患疾病但仍進其所能地為社會做貢獻，因此他很幸福；從第二段知，一位患病的女孩沒有讓病痛控制她的生活，而且還得到了真愛。從而得知，雖身患疾病，但仍堅強，快樂的生活。故態度決定幸福。C雖正確但并非推論得出。
