解析這是一篇夾敘夾議的文章。作者通過自己晚上在黑暗中找燈這件小事,想到世上人人都可能處于“黑暗”之中,如果我們都能用自己的“愛心”之燈去溫暖他人,世界將變的更加美好。
1.D. 根據(jù)上文晚上頭頂?shù)臒魤牧耍芍艺覍よ匙孔有困難,故選D. difficult。
2.A. 根據(jù)下文可知,“我”已經(jīng)把門打開。Manage to do sth. 表成功地做某事。
3.B. 根據(jù)文意可知,由于晚上沒有燈,“我”只好摸索前進,只有felt表此意。
4.D. 根據(jù)“but no switch”可以推知,“我”認(rèn)為那里曾經(jīng)安裝了開關(guān),因此在那里摸索,結(jié)果并沒有,只有once能表示此意。
5.C. 上文提到這是一個旅館,自己是暫時住到這里,排除了A項。從下文一句when I deposited my luggage可推知C項正確,注意spot此處意為“注意到,看到,發(fā)現(xiàn)”。
6.B. 從上文remembered可知,“我”在那天早些時候發(fā)現(xiàn)有開關(guān),現(xiàn)在仍然記得,故選B。
7.B. 因為是晚上,所以選擇dark。
8.A. 根據(jù)文意排除了C、D。句子的主語是nothing而非lamp,故動詞operated不正確。因此,只有A項正確。
9.B. 根據(jù)文意和下文curtains可推知,“我”現(xiàn)在處在黑暗中,只能拉開窗簾,靠外部街道上的光來找到另一盞燈,故選B。
10.C. 根據(jù)文意和下文slowly across the room可知,“我”現(xiàn)在摸索著去拉窗簾。Make one’s way意為“前往,到……去”,符合文意。
11.B. 根據(jù)文意和下文actually可知,我最終找到了燈,故選until。
12.C. 根據(jù)主語a desk lamp和副詞actually可知,這盞燈亮了。此意只有work可以表達。
13.A. 根據(jù)文意,“我”此時心有所感,世界有時是多么黑暗,而燈是如此必要!can可以表示“有時會……,時而可能”,故選A項。
14.D. 根據(jù)文意和下句the light that shines from people可知,人們“內(nèi)心的燈光”比實際的燈光更有必要。Phsical在此意為“物質(zhì)的,有形的”。
15.B. 由文意可知,我們心中應(yīng)該有“愛和信任”之燈,才能戰(zhàn)勝discouragement、sadness、fear,故選love。
16.A. 由文意和dark可知,有時我們中許多人會處在黑暗和孤獨的世界,故選lonely。
17.D. 由文意可知,當(dāng)人們失望、難過和害怕時會需要幫助,因此選D項need。
18.B. 由上文So let your light shine.可知,作者在鼓勵我們要主動去幫助別人,故選B。
19.C. 細(xì)心揣摩文意可知,我們的愛心之燈在茫茫的黑暗中是如此渺小,好象是森林中的一只蠟燭,故選no more than正確。
20.A. 由文意可知,黑暗再強大,也沒有足夠的力量撲滅小如蠟燭的“愛心之燈”,故選A項put out最佳。
