27、他打招呼,故用greeted。答案:D4解析:从上下文知,该男子非常爽朗,他的热情和微笑照亮了(light up)整个停车场。put up表示“搭建”;hold up表示“阻止,阻碍”;keep up表示“保持”,都不符合此语境。答案:A5解析:从上下文知,我原本不知道他身患疾病,当他走近的时候我才注意到(notice)他的腿很瘦,而且拄着拐杖,所以表示语意转折应用But。答案:C6答案:B7解析:我很吃惊他为什么需要拐杖,所以我情不自禁地想他可能有点儿小毛病。此处couldnt help doing sth.是常用句式,表示“情不自禁做某事”。答案:D8解析:从上下文知,这个男子并没有因为自
28、己得了多发性硬化病而感到沮丧和难过,相反,他仍然非常乐观和积极向上,所以,回答我问题的时候带着一种愉快的语气,所以用cheerful。而且下文也提到,微笑从来也没有(never)离开过他的脸庞。答案:A9答案:C10解析:我称赞他做得非常好。handle此处表示“处理,对付”,可作及物动词,直接接宾语;deal常与with搭配,表示“处理(问题等)”。答案:B11解析:尽管(in spite of)你得了多发性硬化病,但你看起来却非常快乐。in return for表示“作为的回报”,thanks to表示“幸亏,由于”,but for表示“要不是”,都不符合语意。答案:A12解析:从语境知,
29、这里是该男子在调侃“要是我有你那样的跑车(sports car)的话,我会更快乐”。答案:D13解析:从语意知,在我们谈话前,我还在为11个月来一直疼痛的肩膀感到难过,故用连词before。答案:C14解析:尽管我已经从手术中恢复(recovering)过来了,但还是为自己受过的疼痛难过。 答案:A15解析:我碰到的这个男子的处境远比我糟糕,但他积极的生活态度没让他少体会一点儿人生的快乐。答案:C16解析:根据语意应用no less happiness,表示“不少于的快乐”。答案:B17解析:这让人想起一句老话,用saying“谚语,格言”。答案:C18解析:Whatever在这里引导让步状语
