【解析】

這篇短文給我們介紹的是著名的詩人——余光中，他尤其以他在詩歌中描寫的鄉(xiāng)愁而聞名。文章讓我們欣賞了他的代表做《鄉(xiāng)愁》。

【1】推理判斷題。根據(jù)詩歌中Me on this side, Mother on the other side.、Me on this side,

Bride（新娘） on the other side.可知，兩句話都使用到反義詞，因此這個空應(yīng)填上句話Me on the outside“我在外邊”中outside的反義詞inside“里邊”。故選B。

【2】細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)詩歌中When I was young、When I grew up、But later on以及And at present可知，這首詩歌是按照時間的順序敘述的。故應(yīng)選A。

【3】推理判斷題。根據(jù)詩歌的大意可知，這首詩表達了作者對家人和祖國的思念之情。故應(yīng)選D。
