27、 rich man. Put a coin into each shoe, and then we will hide ourselves and _47_ how the discovery affects him.” The student did so, and they both placed themselves behind the bushes. The poor man soon finished his work, and came _48_ the field to the path _49_ he had left his coat and shoes. While _5

A. mentioned B. remembered C. recommended D. reminded55. A. amazed B. defeated C. puzzled D. affected答案与解析:36D这个教授被称为学生的朋友
33、。37A这里用go along表示“当他们向前走着的时候”。along表示“向前”。38C从下文“we will hide his shoes”可知,他们走着走着,在小路上发现了一双破旧的鞋子。39A从语境的逻辑关系看,农民将鞋子放在路边,然后赤脚到田里劳动,因此选A项。40B从下文可知,这个学生建议教授和这个农民开一个玩笑(捉弄这个农民),把他的鞋子藏起来。play a trick“捉弄”。make和joke搭配,构成make a joke“开玩笑”。41A这里用hide oneself地点状语表示“躲藏在某地”,然后我们在灌木丛后面藏起来。42D农民在田里劳作完毕后,找不到自己的鞋子,自然
34、是感到“焦虑/着急”,而不是“兴奋、悲伤、失望”。43C从学生的提议看,这个学生是想拿农民当乐子,因此选C项,表示我们不能这样来寻开心。44B教授告诫学生,我们不能拿穷人来寻开心。这里用at the expense of表示“以为代价”。45D从后面教授的建议可知选D项,既然你有钱,那么就该用有钱的方式来开这个玩笑。46A这里用pleasure与前面的amuse呼应,教授建议学生用另外一种方式和这个农民开玩笑,并且这个玩笑会让人觉得更有乐趣。47B从语境看,这师生二人是要看生活的乐趣,而且是躲到灌木丛后面观看,因此选B项,用watch表示“观察”。notice多指无意间看见;realize“意
35、识到”;find“发现,找到”。每只鞋里放一枚硬币,然后我们藏起来,用这样的方式来看看,当这个农民发现自己的鞋子里有硬币的时候,这一发现对他有什么影响。48B这里用across指“从一边到另一边,横过”:农民完成了田里的劳作,穿过田地来到小路上。49A这里用where引导定语从句表地点:这个农民来到他当初放鞋子和衣服的小路上。50C这里表示农民穿上衣服,强调动作,用putting on。wear指穿着的状态,不接on;dress up“装扮”;pull in“进站停靠”。51D这个农民一边穿衣服,一边把脚放进鞋子里,突然感觉到鞋子里有硬邦邦的东西(前面提到的硬币)。52A于是,农民弯下腰去摸,看鞋子里是什么,此处应用what引导宾语从句。53C前面提到这个农民在发现一只鞋子里的硬币时觉得惊讶(Astonishment and wonder),因此本题不难判断选C项。54A农民跪倒在地,看着天,很虔诚地感谢上帝,并且说到他家的窘境:老婆生病了,孩子们没有面包吃。55D听到农民说的这番话,学生被深深打动了,眼中噙满热泪。*结束
