解析本文是英国女作家洛特·勃朗蒂的代表作《简爱》的节选，讲述了 Jane Eyre的苦难生活片断。Jane Eyre从小父母双亡，与婶婶及堂兄妹住在一起，不过常被堂兄妹戏弄。后来被 Mr Brockehurst领到他开办的学校学习。在那里学习了 6年后她在 Thornfield当了一名私人教师。
1. C。从 …with my aunt and cousins who treated me unfairly. My cousins teased me…可推测，“我”过着很悲惨的生活。
2. B。前部分为 My cousins teased me，那么由 and连接的内容应与前部分内容在语意上保持一致，故此处应为 my aunt never showed me any love。
3. A。从上下文可知堂兄妹及婶婶对“我”都不好，此处举例说有一次堂兄对“我”大吼大叫，突出了堂兄的霸道，后面直接引语为大叫的内容。shout at sb意为“对某人大吼大叫”，往往含有贬义。
4. B。因与堂兄打架，“我”被锁进了一间屋子，由此可推测“我”独自呆在那里哭泣。live指长时期的居住，不合语境。
5. D。从下文来看，“我”被虐待的情况一直持续到 Mr Brockehurst来这里访问。
6. C。从下文 But after an illness killed several students, new owners…来看，这里不是强调谁建的学校，而是谁是学校的拥有者，因这才有权决定让像“我”这样的孩子去上学。
7. C。前面说 Mr Brockehurst来见“我”，并让“我”去上学。由此推测两天后“我”离开家去上学了。这与本段第 1句话相吻合。
8. B。从下文的 The food was bad and I was often cold…来看，此处说的是一开始在 Lowood School的生活问题。
9. B。根据句中的 but及 and可知此部分应与 enjoyed studying在语意上保持一致，故此处应用 friends，即 make friends(交朋友)，这也是让人高兴的事情。而 make noise和 make faces都不合乎语境。
10. A。从上下文及搭配关系看，此处应选 took over，意为“接管”。从此开始，“我”的学校生活有了转机，生活大大改善了。
11. C。上文说“我”在学校里学习，后面为 a teacher，这说明“我”的身份发生了变化，故用 become。
12. B。根据下文内容 My new life ___15___ at Thornfield Hall, a large country house及 my time was mainly spent with Adele and the servants可知“我”在一个家庭当了私人教师。
13. B。从上下文来看，此处说的是 Bessie来看“我”，并告诉“我”7年前叔叔曾来找过“我”。
14. A。这是 Bessie告诉“我”的话的内容。从后面的 I wondered if he would ever look for me again可推测，7年前叔叔来找过“我”。
15. C。从上下文来看，这里谈论的是“我”从事家教的开始。
16. B。从前面可知“我”开始了新的工作——家教。此处是对新工作的具体说明，即教一个名叫 Adele的女孩。
17. B。从下文 my time was mainly spent with Adele and the servants可推测，Mr Rochester很少呆在家里。
18. B。前面说 Mr Rochester很少呆在家里，这与后面的 my time was mainly spent with Adele and the servants构成因果关系，故此处选用so。
19. D。从后面的 Often I heard odd sounds ___20___ from the top floor of the house等可推测，当时在这个新的家里有一些“我”感到奇怪的事情。strange与后面的 odd语意一致。
20. A。这里用 come表示“从某地传来声音”，其他选项都不合语境。
