One Friday morning in September, our teacher, Mrs Ferrara, told us that a new student would join our class. “Her name is Luz,” said Mrs Ferrara. “She is from the Lakeland School. She is interested in Maths and Music.”
Luz walked into our classroom on Monday morning. She was using a folding cane(折叠杖). I thought she used it to make sure her feet would not knock into things. Mrs Ferrara gave her a seat in the front of the classroom. Her desk was far from the window. Maybe the bright light near the window would make trouble for her.
Some of the children wanted to help Luz get in line for lunch. She refused quietly, “Thanks, but I don’t need help.” Jose tried to help her walk downstairs for lunch, but again she said, “Thank you, but I don’t need help.”
I introduced myself at lunch. “Hi, Luz. I am Sasha, and I came here from Russia last year.” She replied softly, “Hi, Sasha. I was born in California, but my parents were born in Mexico.”
Luz seemed to keep away from us. I thought she looked a little sad. One day, I asked her,“Why are you sad, Luz?” She looked at me and didn’t say anything for a moment. Then she said, “I miss my friends in my old school. They know what I can do. They know when I need help and when I don’t.”
In October, things began to change. It was time for the chorus(合唱团) to begin practising. Luz and I both joined. Luz had a great voice! When clubs were announced, Luz chose the Maths Club. She was a whizz at Maths! Soon Luz began to help others in the class who had difficulty with Maths. Luz looked happier. She talked more.
Luz became very special to me later. We talked and shared our secrets during break time. Sometimes on weekends, our families went out together. We became good friends. I could tell Luz anything. She could keep secrets. She was a nice friend.

答案：4.C 【点拨】根据“She was using a folding cane(折叠杖). I thought she used it to make sure her feet would not knock into things.”可知，她使用了折叠杖，说明她身体的某些部位活动不方便。故选C。
5.D 【点拨】根据“I miss my friends in my old school. They know what I can do. They know when I need help and when I don't.”可知，因为这些同学不知道什么时候该帮她。故选D。
6.B 【点拨】根据文章内容可知，她是一个数学高手。故选B。
5.D 【点拨】根据“I miss my friends in my old school. They know what I can do. They know when I need help and when I don't.”可知，因为这些同学不知道什么时候该帮她。故选D。
6.B 【点拨】根据文章内容可知，她是一个数学高手。故选B。

【分析】
这是一篇人物故事类阅读理解，包含细节理解和词义猜测两类题型，解题思路如下：首先通读全文梳理人物Luz的核心特征和故事脉络，之后针对每个题干的要求回原文精准定位线索，逐一比对选项排除错误干扰项，最终选出正确答案：第4题要紧扣“特殊之处”的要求，排除原文出现但不符合“特殊”属性的普通信息，结合Luz使用折叠杖的细节推导；第5题直接定位Luz解释自己想念旧朋友的段落，找到她拒绝帮助的核心原因；第6题结合划线词的后文语境，通过她能帮其他同学补数学的表现推导词义。
【解析】
4. 逐一比对选项排除干扰：
选项A“她来自Lakeland学校”只是转学的背景信息，不属于特殊特征；
选项B“她对数学和音乐感兴趣”是老师介绍的普通兴趣信息，不是她独有的特殊点；
选项D“她和父母出生在不同国家”只是出生地相关的普通信息，不符合“特殊”的要求；
原文提到Luz使用折叠杖，走路要避免脚撞到障碍物，说明她身体部分部位活动不便，这是她的特殊之处，对应选项C正确。
5. 定位原文第五段Luz的表述“I miss my friends in my old school. They know what I can do. They know when I need help and when I don’t.”，可知旧朋友熟悉她的能力，清楚什么时候需要帮忙、什么时候不需要，而新同学还不了解她，不知道合适的帮忙时机，所以她一开始拒绝帮助。其余选项：A“她所有事都能独立完成”表述过于绝对，原文无依据；B“她因为用折叠杖难过”原文没有对应内容；C“她不喜欢新同学”和后文她和大家成为好友的情节矛盾，均排除，选项D正确。
6. 划线词“whizz”的后文提到“Soon Luz began to help others in the class who had difficulty with Maths.”，说明Luz的数学能力非常突出，能够辅导数学不好的同学，因此这个单词的中文含义是“高手”，对应选项B。

【点评】
本题属于中等难度的记叙类阅读，所有题目的线索都可以在原文中直接找到对应，易错点是第4题容易误选原文出现过的A、B、D项，做题时要注意紧扣题干的限定要求筛选信息，不要看到原文出现过的内容就直接选，词义猜测题要结合上下文的逻辑推导，避免脱离语境主观臆断。
