10、lCdifferentDfrequent()20.AlikeBadmireCnoticeDrecognize【解题导语】微笑是法国作家安东尼圣艾修伯里的作品，圣艾修伯里是名飞行员，二次大战对抗纳粹时被击落身亡，之前他也曾参加西班牙内战打击法西斯分子。他根据这次经验写了一篇精彩的故事微笑。他的代表作小王子是美国人都很熟悉的童话故事。1C此处的“escaped their search”字面上就表示出“(烟)逃离了他们的搜查”，也就是“没有被他们搜走(的烟)”。2Done指代前文中的一支烟。3A因为“手抖”，所以“好不容易地”把烟放进嘴里。4Bbars指监狱的铁窗，透过铁窗的间隙看着狱卒，下文也有
11、提示。5C根据下文的(狱卒)“came over”判断“我们隔着些距离”，应该是“大声叫道”。6A当他靠近的时候。7D那一刻，“我”微笑了。也正是这一微笑，消除了他们之间的隔阂。8B 可能是因为紧张，这是对一位蹲监狱的人的一种合乎逻辑的推测。9B当你如此靠近另一个人，你很难不对他微笑。10C微笑如同火花般，打破了“我们”心灵间的隔阂。11D根据“looking at me directly in the eyes”可判断出。12A狱卒朝“我”微笑，“我”自然也微笑，认识到他不仅仅是一名狱卒。13D认识到他不仅仅是一名狱卒，也是一个有血有肉有感情的人。14A下文他突然问及孩子，所以这里是有了另外
12、一个念头。15C根据下文“He，too，took out the pictures of his family”可知。16D狱卒听作者说他的家庭和孩子，不禁触及他内心柔软的部分令他落泪，“突然”二话不说打开门让他逃走。17Bunlock打开(牢房)。18C是微笑“救了”他的命。19B微笑是人与人之间最自然、真挚的沟通方式。20D如果我们能用心灵去认识彼此，世间就不会有结怨成仇的憾事：恨意、嫉妒、恐惧也会不复存在。.阅读理解(共4小题；每小题2分，满分8分)阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。Quicker and faster 3D printers have a
