17、Vietnam.”可知，Plumb是“被捕”了，而不是“战亡”或“释放”。“受伤”的结果并不意味着要坐牢。故选C。3A他得以从那场磨难中逃生，现在向人们讲述他从那次经历中所学到的东西。只有lecture才和about搭配表示“向人讲述”之意。故选A。4C由第一段第一句可知Plumb是一个“jet fighter pilot”，所以是flew。故选C。5D由第一段第二句可知，Plumb的飞机被地空导弹摧毁，故是“被击落”。take down记下； look down俯视； set down放下； shoot down击落。6D由后文可知，这个人的工作是在船上捆扎(pack)降落伞，而不是检查(c
18、heck)。故选D。7APlumb又惊讶又感激地倒吸了一口气，惊讶是这个人竟然认得他，感激的是他捆扎的降落伞挽救了自己的生命。故选A。8B由Plumb assured him可知，Plumb说话时的语气是非常肯定的，应用surely。故选B。9C由上文的“Youjet fighters in Vietnam from the aircraft carrier(航空母舰) Kitty Hawk.”及下文的sailor可推断出“Kitty Hawk”应是一艘航空母舰。在船上应用介词on。aboard是“登船”之意。故选C。10BPlumb不跟那个人打招呼与“一个人是飞行员，另一个人是水手”之间是因
19、果关系，故选B。11A由下文“Plumb thought of the many days the sailor had spent”可知选A。12D由下文可知，他应细心地整理好每一个降落伞。故选D。13C这里指他手里都掌握着一个素不相识的人的命运。故选C。14D由上文的“about”可知应是“观众”。故选D。15C根据上文“Iyour parachute， the man replied.”可知应选C。16A每个人的生活中都有一个人，这个人为他们提供渡过难关所需要的东西。故选A。17B由下文的mental，emotional，spiritual等词可知，除了心理上的、感情上的、精神上的降落伞之外，他还需要“物质上的”降落伞。故选B。18C他依赖所有这些支撑力量才得以安全降落。上一句中提到的parachute均为比喻用法，并不是指真正的降落伞。故选C。19B20B他的经历提醒我们所有人，去发现那些平日里为我们捆扎降落伞的人，是他们给了我们走过风雨的力量。故选B。
