Ⅴ. Reading comprehension.
In a small village there was a middle-aged postman who just turned 40 years old.
He had been delivering all kinds of happy or sad stories to each home day after day for
20 years. Over those two decades, many changes took place, but the road from the
post office to the village still had no trees, and nothing but flying dust could be seen.
"How long will I go along this lonely road?" As soon as he thought he must spend
his life riding the bike on the dusty road with no flower or tree, he felt somewhat sorry.
One day when he finished delivering the letters and was ready to return, he
happened to pass by a flower shop. "Right, that's it!" he thought. He walked into the
shop, bought a handful of wild flower seeds, and from the next day on he put these
seeds along the roadside. Thus, after one day, two days, one month, two months...
he always kept putting the wild flower seeds along the roadside.
Before long, on the lonely road where he had come and gone for 20 years, grew
up a lot of little flowers, blooming endlessly in all seasons.
For the villagers, the flowers were more enjoyable than any mail the postman had
delivered in all his life. On the road without dust but full of petals(花瓣), the
postman rode his bike, losing himself in the sweet smell and not feeling lonely and
anxious any more.

解析
【分析】
这是一篇记叙文类阅读理解，解题时可以先浏览所有题干标记关键词，再带着问题回原文定位对应内容：前三道都是细节理解题，直接找到原文对应语句比对选项就能选出正确答案；最后一道是主旨大意题，需要梳理全文故事脉络，结合核心情节匹配对应的道理，排除无关的俗语选项即可。首先定位年龄相关信息算出邮递员入职年龄，再依次定位旧路的特征、邮递员在花店的采购内容，最后结合撒小种子改变整条路的核心情节提炼主旨。
【解析】
22. 细节理解题：原文开篇提到邮递员刚满40岁，同时说明他已经从事送信工作20年，40-20=20，可知他开始工作时大约20岁，对应选项B。
23. 细节理解题：原文第一段明确描述过去的路“still had no trees, and nothing but flying dust could be seen”，说明旧路满是飞扬的尘土，对应选项C。
24. 细节理解题：原文第二段提到邮递员走进花店后“bought a handful of wild flower seeds”，可知他买的是野花种子，对应选项C。
25. 主旨大意题：全文讲述邮递员沿路撒下小小的野花种子，就把走了20年的尘土飞扬的孤寂小路变成了四季花开、满是花香的美好道路，体现了微小的举动也能带来巨大的改变。B选项“失败是成功之母”、C选项“熟能生巧”、D选项“旧习难改”均和故事核心无关，只有A符合主旨。
