17、无所有。故事告诫人们面对金钱不要贪得无厌。16D根据第一段最后一句,为什么那些人如此有钱却从不满足,还想得到更多。可知乞丐对此百思不得其解,“keep wondering”(一直想知道)符合句意。17B还想得到更多,所以不满足,B项符合句意。18C由常识可知,乞丐最重要的是要解决吃和穿的问题。eat(吃)对应下面提到的“穿”,符合语境。learn学习;watch看,观察;play游戏;均不符合语境。19A根据第一段,乞丐在沿街乞讨,所以财富女神降落到大街上才能看到乞丐。street(街道)符合语境。bridge桥;yard院子;forest森林;均不符合语境。20C根据下文,“打开你的钱包,我
18、要给你一些金子”,可知财富女神在帮助乞丐。所以选help,意为:帮助。praise表扬;forgive原谅; comfort安慰;均不符合语境。21D根据第三段中“All that falls into the wallet will be pure gold”(所有进入你钱包的都是纯金)可知乞丐打开的是一个钱包,所以选 wallet,意为“钱包”。22D只有在这种条件下,“我”才会去做。“All that falls into the wallet will be pure gold; but every piece falling upon the_shall become dust”指上
19、文提到的这种条件。condition“条件、状况”,符合句意。23C句意:每一枚金币掉到地上都会变成尘土。ground(地面)符合语境。24A根据下文财富女神告诫乞丐不要装得太重,提醒乞丐注意、当心。所以选look out。look after照顾;look up仰视,向上看;look down俯视。25C上文中“With an old wallet in his hand”表明这是一个旧钱包,所以选worn,意思是:用旧的。26Bcould hardly wait to do sth.意为:迫不及待做某事。句意:激动的乞丐早已迫不及待地想拿到金子。27A根据倒数第三段中提到“golden s
20、tream”可知答案。28C通过乞丐告诉财富女神钱包现在还很结实,可知不要为钱包担心。Never fear.不要害怕。29D句意:钱包装了如此多的金币,乞丐的手开始发抖。shake(发抖)符合语境。spread伸展;close关闭;loose放松;均不符合语境。30A乞丐希望金子源源不断地流出,四个选项中只有pour(流出)能形象地描绘出乞丐的贪婪。31B对应前文的“Just a little more,”可知,这里表达的意思是:贪婪的乞丐想再往钱包中多装一两把金子。add(添加)符合句意。take拿,携带;lend借出; send发送;均不符合语境。最后一段的第一句话也有原词复现:One m
21、ore piece was added and the wallet split。32B钱包已经装满了,而且是一个旧钱包,继续装可能会裂开。所以选burst“破裂”。下文中的“split”为同义词复现。33D贪婪的乞丐认为钱包还能多装一点。hold“容纳”,符合语境。34Ctreasure(财宝)这里指代金币。钱包破裂后金币自然会掉到地上。present礼物; food食物;metal金属;均不符合句意。35A句意:贪婪的乞丐除了破裂的钱包一无所有。nothing什么也没有。CWhen Andra Rush started her trucking company, all she had w
