B

本文通过讲述一位绅士每周去探望囚犯的故事引入话题谈及永不言弃的精神时，人们更可

能联想到面对挑战的人们，比如文中所列举的运动员、士兵、灾难中的幸存者等等。但作者认为

那些默默无闻，生活在我们周围的普通人不为名利，却对人、对事忠诚如一的品质才是最可贵的。

25.D从第一、二段中可以得知，这位绅士每周都去探望囚犯，从不对他们进行说教，

而且尽可能帮助他们，不求回报。尤其是从第二段他的回答中可知，因为别人已经放弃

这些

囚犯，所以他将永远不会放弃他们。由此得知，这位绅士所作一切完全出于关爱，

为了提供帮助。

26.B从第三段第一、二句话中所提到的运动员、士兵、灾难中的幸存者以及与对手抗争

的人，可知人们经常将永不言弃的品质和这些面临挑战和困境的人联系起来。

27.C从第三段Butinlessflashy,lessnewsworthyforms,devotiontoatask,or

aperson,oranoccupationshowsupincountlesslivesallaroundus.这句中可

以从作者的语气中推知，那些生活在我们周围的未被歌颂的人们所表现出的，不为名利，

却对人或事忠诚不渝的品质更令人钦佩。从第四段作者所列举的例子中也可以看出来。

28.A通读全文，可以看出。这位绅士行为以及他所表现出来的品质，正是作者下文铺陈

文字要赞扬的。因此可知作者介绍他的故事是为了引出本文主题。
