50、此句意思参考上一题的分析。contact的意思是“(目光等)接触”。24.A 。enjoyable表示“令人愉快的, 有趣的”。友善的微笑所带给我们的感受应该是愉悦，而与诚实、痛苦或气愤等情感体验没有关系。25.C 。该空白处后面的“我喜欢看见顾客微笑”应该是作者对自己工作的要求或良好愿望。motto 表示“箴言;座右铭”。26.A 。此句意为“当看见你时他微笑，表明与你打交道，他觉得很舒服。”dealing with you 在句中作状语。27.C 。giggle表示“格格笑;傻笑”。作者只有把女儿的笑比喻成阳光，才可能说它“像太阳温暖我的身体一样使我的内心暖烘烘的”。28.C 。这里要用t
51、he same.as. 的结构。29.D。clear away表示“(云、雾等)消失”;put away表示“把收起来;储存备用”;give away表示“赠送;泄露”;get away表示“逃脱，离开”30.B 。此句意为“无论何时我看她的照片，她格格的笑声就会在我的耳旁回响”。31.D 。这里强调声音的魅力，即余音萦绕在耳际。32.A 。妻子含蓄的笑与女儿的开怀大笑形成鲜明的对比，可见此处表示转折。因为前后有逗号，所以不能用but。33.B 。妻子的笑对丈夫也有相当大的“魔力”，在其眼中有特殊的含义，所以有时会使作者感到很激动，甚至神魂颠倒。profound表示“意味深长的, 意义深远的”
52、。turn sb. on表示“使人激动或兴奋”。34.B 。该段谈到演员Julia Robert 微笑的力量，再根据该段最后一句话“Both of us burst into a kind of Julias laughter.”，很容易选出正确答案。35.A 。该句是说美国人在很多方面有所差异，但对于演员Julia微笑的魅力的评价却是一致的，所以此处用differ(in)。36.C 。作者认为演员Julia Robert的微笑在其演技中起着非常重要的作用，对于这一点，没有一个美国人会否认。37.B 。店主问作者糖果有多甜时，作者将糖果的甜味比喻成演员Julia的笑，然后和店主一起像Julia
53、一样开怀大笑起来,可见作者的幽默之处。burst into laughter表示“突然大笑起来”;roar with laughter表示“哄堂大笑”。38.C 。此处表示递进关系，无转折之意，也不表示条件关系。39.D 。insist on表示“坚持要求”。此处描述作者与小狗交往的故事，小狗特殊的笑容给作者留下不可磨灭的印象。lipping是由动词lip变成的动名词，表示“用嘴唇触及，吻”。40.A 。every inch 表示“完全， 彻底;在各方面，从头到尾; 浑身”之意。此处作者在描述小狗微笑时可爱填词41.Who 42.and 43.depressed 44.what 45. to
54、46. nervously 47.
