Question

Each spring brings a new wildflower blooming in the fields along the highway I travel daily to work. There is one particular blue flower that has always caught my eye. I've noticed that it blooms only in the morning hours. The afternoon sun is too warm for it. Every day each year for about two weeks, I see those beautiful flowers.
This spring, I started a wildflower garden in my yard. I can look out of the kitchen window while doing the dishes and see the flowers. I've often thought that those lovely blue flowers from the fields would look great in that bed alongside other wildflowers.
Every day I drove past the flowers, thinking, "I'll stop on my way home and dig them." "Gee, I don't want to get my good clothes dirty…" Whatever the reason, I never stopped to dig them. My husband even gave me a tool one year for that expressed purpose.
One day on my way home from work, I was saddened to see that the highway department had cleared up the fields and the pretty blue flowers were gone. I thought to myself, "Way to go, you waited too long. You should have done it when you first saw them blooming this spring. "
A week ago we were shocked and saddened to learn that my oldest sister-in-law has a cancer. She is 20 years older than my husband and unfortunately, because of age and distance, we haven't been as close as we all would have liked.
I couldn't help but see the connection between the pretty blue flowers and the relationship between my husband's sister and us. I do believe that God has given us some time left to plant some wonderful memories that will bloom every year for us.
And yes, if I see the blue flowers again, I'm sure I'll stop and transplant them to my wildflower garden.

解析試題分析：本文敘述了每年春天都會有一些野花在我每日上班的高速路旁的兩旁盛開。有一種獨特的藍色小花總能吸引我的目光。我注意到它只在早上的時間開放，下午的日光對它來說太溫暖了。大概有兩周的時間，我每天都能看到那些美麗的花兒。作者每次都想移植這些藍花，可是后來花不見了，如果我再次看到那些藍色的花兒，你可以相信，我會停下來把它們移植到我的野花花園里。這段告訴我們不要錯過機會。

考點：故事短文閱讀。
點評：推測寫作目的題和了解文章大意題有所不同，后者要知道文章講什么，中心思想是什么。而前者是要知道寫文章是為了什么，達到什么目的。因此，這種題比了解文章大意題更難解答，它不僅要求了解內容，還要了解作者的口氣，分析作者的論述方法，這樣才能推斷出寫作目的。
