I shall never forget the day when the earthquake took place. The time was 5:15 in the afternoon and I was driving along the road to 1my daughter from school. Our plan was to go 2 together. I had finished work at about 4 o'clock and then 3 to the post office, then get off at a shop in order to buy some  fruit. We like to have some fruit to eat after our swim.

  I was driving along a high road on my way to the school. Over my road was another way for cars coming the 5 way. I was hungry so I put the bag of apples in the seat 6me and started to eat one.

  Suddenly I saw the cars 7 me start to move from side to side. I slowed down. Then 8 started to shake. I didn't know what was happening. 9 something had gone wrong with my car. I drove even slower. I stopped the car and at the same moment the 10 fell on?to the cars in front of me.

  I found myself in the dark. I couldn't move. The bottom parts of both my legs and my feet were 11 badly and I couldn't move them. All around me was 12 . But below me I could hear shouts and a lot of noise. Then I 13 what had happened. I had been in an earth?quake.

  For about two hours nobody came. Luckily I could reach the bag of apples,so 14I had plenty to eat. Then I 15 people climbing towards me. A team of people had come to see if anyone was under the 16 road. I called out "I'm here!" I heard a shout. Soon 17 climbed to the side of the bridge near my car, "How are you doing?" he asked.
  "Not too bad," I said, "but my feet and legs 18 as if they're broken.”
  "We'll have you out of there just as 19 as we can," he said. They didn't get me out until the next morning. I had been in the 20 for 14 hours.

本文講述了作者開車到學(xué)校接女兒去游泳途中遭遇地震的經(jīng)歷。

1. C get sb.在此意為"接某人"。

2. D從下文的"We like to have some fruit to eat after our swim."可以得知"我"是和女兒一起去"游泳"。

3. C因為還要去接女兒游泳,所以,作者在接到女兒之前的一系列動作肯定是匆匆忙忙的。"rush to the post office"意思是"匆忙趕到郵局"。

4. C去買些"新鮮的"水果。其他幾項在文中沒有依據(jù)。

5. A如果是從同一方向來的車就沒必要修天橋了。所以,天橋應(yīng)是給從另外一個方向來的車用的。

6. B若一邊開車一邊吃水果,將水果放在"身邊的"座位上是最方便的。

7. B從下文"I slowed down"的描述來看,在路上左右兩邊晃的車只能是在作者的"前面"。詞組in front of意為"在……前方"。

8. C根據(jù)上下文,此處應(yīng)是感覺到"車"有異常。

9. C根據(jù)"I didn't know what was happening."的上文可知,作者在當(dāng)時未意識到地震已發(fā)生的情況下,應(yīng)是在"猜測"他的車是否出了毛病。

10. C從16空后面的"road"可知是前面車上方的天橋垮了。

11. D從"I couldn't move them"的描述可以想象,作者的腿和腳一定是被卡住了,所以應(yīng)為"疼"得厲害。

12. A根據(jù)下文but分句的含義可以推斷出,當(dāng)時"我"的四周是一片"寂靜"的。

13. C根據(jù)上下文,剛才"我"以為車出了毛病,現(xiàn)在才"意識到"剛才遇到的是地震。

14. A詞組at least表"至少……"之意。

15. B根據(jù)上文得知,當(dāng)時四周一片漆黑,所以不可能"看見"或"認(rèn)出";而catch則表示"發(fā)現(xiàn)(某人做壞事)"。因此,只能是"聽到"有人爬過來。

16. A從前文第二段"Over my road was anoth?er way for cars coming the other way."得知, "我"是被埋在"震壞的"路下面。

17. D根據(jù)當(dāng)時的情況,應(yīng)是"陌生人"來救援。

18. C "我"憑"感覺"判斷腿斷了。

19. C as soon as是指時間上盡快,使時間盡可能短,而as fast as是指在速度上快。

20. A作者從地震發(fā)生時起到被救出來一直待在"車"里。

 Working Women Over 70 Caught in the Retirement Trap At 74 ,Marie Maes is scrambling to find a work.
