  During the month of September, a dear friend of mine lost her husband suddenly in an accident.The tragedy was a   1   to everyone.When I got the news, I drove home   2   that we just don't know when a loved one is   3   going to be with us.We sometimes take our loved ones   4  , and we expect that they will be with us forever.  5  , as we all know, life does not work that   6   and sometimes we get a wake up call that shocks us and makes us   7   and realize how short life is.

  In comforting her at the funeral, I tried to imagine if I was in her   8   how would I feel.

  As I was leaving the   9  , I ran into a Marilyn, who has been a true friend to me over the years.When she asked me how my job was, I started   10   things through.I was having a   11   week with my job and I was telling her how I was feeling.She listened to me as I was shouting my   12  , then without saying a word, she took her hands and   13   them on my face, and said to me, “But at least you had a day.”

  The   14   of her hands on my cheeks, the   15   in her voice, and the words she spoke, “BUT AT LEAST YOU HAD A DAY”, hit me like a ton of   16  .All the frustrations, all the stress that was   17   inside me came to a complete   18  

  Since that day, when I start feeling   19  , I remind myself of Marilyn's words-but at east I had a day! Things could be a lot   20  , but I am alive and I have a lot to be thankful for.

解析:

(1)

shock作名词,意思是“令人震惊的事”。

(2)

know“知道,了解”;imagine“想象”;admire“羡慕,钦佩”;realize“意识到”。表明作者以前没有想到,直到好朋友失去丈夫之后才意识到这件事情。

(3)

我们所爱的人去世了,所以就“不再”陪伴我们了。

(4)

take…for granted是固定搭配,意思是“想当然地认为”。

(5)

前后两部分为转折关系,所以使用however,表示“然而”。

(6)

way此处表示“方式”。

(7)

stand back意思是“往后站”,此处表示感到非常的震惊,以至于退了一步;stand up意思是“站立”;stand by意思是“袖手旁观”;stand out意思是“显眼,突出”。

(8)

be in one's shoes是固定用法,意思是“处于某人的境地(尤指恶劣的处境)”。

(9)

根据上文In comforting her at the funeral可判断此处应选择funeral(葬礼)。

(10)

talk sth.through意思是“把某事彻底说清楚”。

(11)

根据下文She listened to me as I was shouting my frustrations可判断作者的工作压力很大。

(12)

frustration意思是“失望,沮丧”。根据下文All the frustrations,all the stress…came to a complete stop可知答案。

(13)

place表示“放置”。

(14)

touch意思是“抚摸”。其他三项light(灯,光),sense(感觉),smell(气味)均不符合题意。

(15)

calmness表示“沉着,镇静,心平气和”。

(16)

hit sb.like a ton of bricks是固定用法,意思是“打动某人,使某人惊呆”。

(17)

build up表示“增加,堆积”;break up表示“破坏,解散,结束”;open up表示“开始,揭露,展现”;bring up表示“养育”。原句表示听了Marilyn的话,原先堆积在心里的沮丧、压力都无影无踪了。

(18)

stop此处作名词使用,表示“停止”;come to a conclusion意思是“得出结论”。

(19)

stressed此处作形容词使用,表示“有压力的”,与上文相呼应。

(20)

  [解析]本句的意思是:事情可能会更糟糕,但是我还活着,我还有许多应心存感激的事情。也就是说,只要活着,任何困难都是可以克服的。

  [文章大意]好友的丈夫突然去世,让作者觉得人生太短暂。她参加完葬礼之后来到了另外一位好朋友的家,向她倾诉心中的压力和沮丧之情。朋友的开导让她明白了,只要活着,一切事情都可以解决,即使再糟糕也没有关系。

  As my wife greeted me one evening, her voice came through the door,“Guess what?”

  I always take a deep   1   on this very leading question.“What?”I asked.

  “  5   can play at that game,”I responded.“I will wear my gray suit, my Borsalino imported straw hat and a new silk tie.We will be well   6  .”

  It was early   7   and nearing dusk as the waiter took us to a table by a window, with a(n)  8   of the river.And the table was   9   set, with a smoke-gray tablecloth and bright colored napkins.

  A delicious meal   10   in such an atmosphere should be remembered a long time.As it   11  , this will probably never be forgotten.

  As the shadows lengthened, the   12   rocking by the riverbank, I murmured,“Why not take a walk?”

  Hand in hand, we walked by the stores.People smiled and nodded.“I   13   realized there were so many   14   people as we have seen this evening, dear,”I observed.

  “Probably your new straw hat or your   15  ,”she said.

  After receiving many smiles, we   16   ourselves back at the restaurant, looking at ourselves in the   17  .It was then that I saw the   18   for all the smiles.

  When I was a little girl, every Sunday my family of six would put on our best clothes and go to Sunday School and then church.The   1   in elementary school would all meet together to sing songs, and then later divide into   2   based on their ages.

  One Easter Sunday, all the kids   3   with big eyes and big   4   about what the Easter Bunny(复活节小兔)had brought.  5   all of the kids shared their stories with   6  , one young boy , whom I shall call Bobby, sat   7  .One of the teachers , noticing this, said to him, “And what did the Easter Bunny   8   you?”He replied, “My mom   9   the door by accident so the Easter Bunny couldn't get   10   because he hadn't got a key.”
