7、ng Creport Dassistance答案：D解析：give assistance意思是“offer help”，根据空后的helped可确定答案为D。其他选项在文中都找不到信息提示点。3A.inside Boutside Caround Dtowards答案：A解析：车爆炸了，那么车里面有火，故选A。4A.plan Bmind Cdirection Dnature答案：C解析：上面提到了众人的帮助，所以此刻一辆卡车也改变了“方向”，为他们提供一些方便，故选C。卡车是无生命的事物，故不能选用另外三个选项。5A.after Bbefore Cwhen Duntil答案：B解析：卡车加入救助
8、时，消防队员显然还没有到。6A.wife Bpassenger Cvisitor Dguest答案：B解析：根据文意可知A、C两项明显不对。passenger是“乘客”，而guest是“客人”，在车上的人应是乘客。7A.wounds Bsickness Cburns Dhurts答案：C解析：因为是火引起的，所以应当是烧伤“burn”，故选C。8A.operation Btreatment Crecovery Dexamination答案：B解析：因为伤比较轻微，所以经简单“治疗”后便可以离开医院，故选B。9A.much Bpretty Cusually Dactually答案：B解析：pre

10、4A.van Boffice Cmarket Droom答案：A解析：火主要在车内燃烧，故救火人到了“车”内，由第一段中的“in their motor van”也可得到提示信息。15A.rescue Bdoctor Cfirefighter Dambulance答案：D解析：由常识可知，受伤的人在等“救护车”。16A.kept on Binsisted on Ccared for Dgave up答案：B解析：keep on“保持”；insist on“坚决要求；坚持”；care for“喜欢；照顾”；give up“放弃”。根据语境可知，第二个人坚决要回到面包车里去看看。故选B。17A.i
11、n order Bin all Call right Dall over答案：C解析：all right相当于OK。进入车内的目的应该是看看物品是否损坏。in order“按顺序”；in all“总共”；all over“到处”；用在这里都不符合文意。18A.Equipment BSuffering CDamage DCondition答案：C解析：由“superficial”和“plastic window”可以想到此处指车子部件的“损坏”情况。19A.although Bsince Cbecause Dso that答案：A解析：前后意义相反，所以选A，后面表示让步。其他三项的逻辑关系都不
