問題詳情：
I first met Paul Newman in 1968, when George Roy Hill, the director of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, introduced us in New York City. When the studio didn’t want me for the film - it wanted somebody as well known as Paul — he stood up for me. I don’t know how many people would have done that; they would have listened to their agents or the studio powers.
The friendship that grew out of the experience of making that film and The Sting four years later had its root in the fact that although there was an age difference, we both came from a tradition of theater and live TV. We were respectful of craft(技藝) and focused on digging into the characters we were going to play. Both of us had the qualities and virtues that are typical of American actors: humorous, aggressive, and making fun of each other — but always with an underlying affection. Those were also at the core(核心) of our relationship off the screen.
We shared the brief that if you’re fortunate enough to have success, you should put something back — he with his Newman’s Own food and his Hole in the Wall camps for kids who are seriously ill, and me with Sundance and the institute and the festival. Paul and I didn’t see each other all that regularly, but sharing that brought us together. We supported each other financially and by showing up at events.
I last saw him a few months ago. He’d been in and out of the hospital. He and I both knew what the deal was, and we didn’t talk about it. Ours was a relationship that didn’t need a lot of words.

【分析】
本文是一篇記敍文。主要講述了作者與Paul Newman之間的深厚友情。當製片人不想讓我參演電影時，Paul Newman站出來為我説話，兩人因此而建立了深厚的友誼。在此後的很多年裏，兩人一直相互扶持，相互鼓勵，因此兩人的深厚友情維繫了很多年。
44．推理判斷題。根據第一段的“When the studio didn’t want me for the film— it wanted somebody as well known as Paul”製片人不想要我，他想要當時比較出名的演員Paul,因此，可知作者當時還不是很有名。故選C。
45．推理判斷題。根據第二段的“Both of us had the qualities and virtues that are typical of American actors: humorous, aggressive, and making fun of each other— but always with an underlying affection. Those were also at the core （核心）of our relationship off the screen”可知，作者與Paul之間有着相似的*格特徵，這讓他們的友誼天長地久。故選D。
46．詞義猜測題。根據“We shared the brief that if you’re fortunate enough to have success, you should put something back”，我們都有這個信仰：如果你有幸獲得成功，你應該有所回饋。下文“he with his Newman’s Own food and his Hole in the Wall camps for kids who are seriously ill, and me with Sundance and the institute and the festival”是作者舉的例子，因此“sharing that brought us together.”that指代前面提到的信仰。故選A。
47．主旨大意題。根據最後一段“I last saw him a few months ago. He’d been in and out of the and I both knew what the deal was,and we didn’t talk about it”可知Paul已經去世了，再結合前文“I first met Paul Newman in 1968”，可推斷作者寫文章是為了懷念這位朋友。故選B。
【點睛】
在完成推理題時，要特別注意排除干擾項。
如小題1中的A項“Paul Newman wanted it.”屬於“顛倒黑白”類干擾項，根據“When the studio didn’t want me for the film— it wanted somebody as well known as Paul”可知製片人不想要我，他想要當時比較出名的演員Paul，説明A項明顯錯誤。
干擾項的設置方法除了“顛倒黑白”之外，通常還有以下幾種方式：
1. 張冠李戴。命題者把文章作者的觀點與他人的觀點混淆起來，題幹問的是作者的觀點，選項中出現的卻是他人的觀點；或者題幹問的是他人的觀點，卻把作者的觀點放到選項中去。
2. 偷樑換柱。干擾項用了與原文相似的句型結構和大部分相似的詞彙，卻在不易引人注意的地方換了幾個詞彙，造成句意的改變。
3. 無中生有。干擾項往往是生活的基本常識和普遍接受的觀點，但在原文中並無相關的信息支持點，這種選項的設置往往與問題的設問毫不相干。
4. 以偏概全。考生在做猜測文章中心思想、給文章添加標題或判斷推理題時，往往會犯以偏概全的錯誤。產生這類錯誤的原因是考生受思維定勢的影響或考慮不周，以局部代替整體。其具體表現為合理關聯與不合理關聯、準確概括與不準確概括之間的錯位。不合理關聯就是表層理解與深層理解相混淆。表層理解是對文章中客觀事實的感知和記憶，往往是文章直接表述的結論；深層理解則是對文章中的客觀事實進行邏輯推理、總結或概括後得出的結論。不準確概括是指不能準確地按題目要求概括或提取文中的表層或深層信息。
