18、的仆人一起赶路来到了一个村庄。came to 给我们提示，空白处应该填入一个动态的动词，故用 travelling。18A.faraway B. poorCdifferent Dancient 答案B上文提到过 great poverty，所以此处应该填 poor。faraway “遥远的”，不等于就是贫困的，与上文不符。19A.unless Bbecause Cso Dif答案C前面说第一位富人不能忍受看到这种贫困，该空后面说他取出所有的金银财宝分给村民。由此不难看出前后是因果关系，故用so。20A.them Banything Cnothing Dthose答案A此处用 them 代替前文
19、的 all the gold and jewels。21A.curious BworryingCdangerous Dpuzzling答案B该空后面的 situation 指的是19空前的 the poverty，贫困应该是“令人忧虑的”而不是“好奇的”“危险的”或“令人迷惑不解的”。22A.the villagers Bhis servantsCthe others Dthe rest答案A第二位富人不忍心看到这种情形，停了一会儿之后他把所有食物和饮料都给了村民(the villagers)。23A.could Bmight Cshould Dmust答案Acould 表示能力，意为“能够”

21、A.turned back Bset outC. showed off Dspeeded up答案D第三位富人一看到这种贫困的情形，加快了步伐径直穿过而没有停下来。该空后面的 went through 和 without stopping 是提示。28A.village Bland C. field D. road答案A第三位富人径直穿过村庄没有停下来。29A.whether Bhow Cwhere D. when答案B前两位富人评论第三位富人缺乏同情心。how 引导宾语从句，意为“如何，多么”。30A.good Bcertain Ctrue Dstrange答案A该空后面的 they the
