解析:
第1小题: 此题中的take在这个句子中的意思是拿……作例子。它考查了一个固定搭配,即:take…for example。它的意思是:拿当……作例子。因作者首先交代了自己的观点,他要进一步用论据支撑自己的论点,故使用take这个词。这又是一个比较长的句子,无论是在阅读还是完型填空,亦或是单选中,我们要学会将长句化简。这里我们可以将逗号前与逗号后的成分联系起来看。 第2小题: 这个题是根据上下文推断出来的。因其在上文中谈到了…until whatever we've become used to suddenly disappears,意为:直到我们所习以为常的东西突然消失了。所以在这里应当使用used to see—or look at—因为这个人是过去我在上班的路上常见的,而现在却消失了的一个人。 第3小题: no matter what引导的让步状语从句。 第4小题:从下文来看,应该是一个下雪的天气。 第5小题: bring out“拿出来”。 第6小题:“非常清楚她是一个普通的工作女性”。 第7小题:只能等见不到她了我才记起这些。 第8小题:修饰动词用much 第9小题:你也许会说我想念她。 第10小题:人总是往坏处想。 第11小题: 这个题的答案在上下文中可以找到。虽然在前面提到了Did she have an a accident? Something worse? 但是,这只是一种猜测,而不是事实,所以46题的答案不可能是D。而这个素不相识的人的消失却是事实,所以应当选A为答案。 第12小题: 这个题应当这样分析。上文提到了她消失后我才意识到我本来是多么想见到她。对于这种情感,你甚至可以说我想念她。以前天天见到她不以为然,而现在不见了,我感觉我认识她。因为她是我生活中的必不可少的偶遇。真所谓失去了才知道珍惜。当然,在这里这样说有点过分,但是作者的心态确实是一种牵挂。 第13小题:我们的日常生活。 第14小题: 此题中的familiar和stranger看起来是矛盾的,但是根据chance meetings这个短语,和下面的句子我们可以推断出这个是正确答案。the milkman you see at dawn, the woman who regularly walks her dog along the street every morning, the twin brothers you see at the library,这些人都是我们素不相识但又是那么熟悉的面孔。 第15小题:通过联系上下文可知应是经常干的事情 第16小题: 此题的解题线索在后面。They add weight to our sense of place and belonging.特别是这个句子的add weight to很重要,意为:……增加了分量,因为他们,我们才增加了自己的归属感。 第18小题:这是一个很复杂的句子结构。这是一个if引导的主从复合句,If we mark where we are by passing a certain building, why should we not mark where we are when we pass a familiar, though unnamed person? While walking to work,是一个现在分词短语作状语,说明we mark where we are by passing a certain building,这个动作发生的时间。我们还可以将它放在条件从句后,If we mark where we are by passing a certain building , while walking to work, why should we not mark where we are when we pass a familiar, though unnamed person? 第19小题:通过一幢建筑物 第20小题: 原因同第14小题。

We may look at the world around us, but somehow we manage not to see it until whatever we’ve become used to suddenly disappears. 36 , for example, the neatly-dressed woman I 37 to see—or look at—on my way to work each morning.
For three years, no matter 38 the weather was like, she was always waiting at the bus stop around 8:00 am. On 39 days, she wore heavy clothes and a pair of woolen gloves. Summertime 40 out neat, belted cotton dresses and a hat pulled low over her sunglasses. 41 , she was an ordinary working woman. Of course, I 42 all this only after she was seen no more. It was then that I realized how 43 I expected to see her each morning. You might say I 44 her.
“Did she have an accident? Something 45 ?” I thought to myself about her 46 . Now that she was gone, I felt I had 47 her. I began to realize that part of our 48 life probably includes such chance meetings with familiar 49 : the milkman you see at dawn, the woman who 50 walks her dog along the street every morning, the twin brothers you see at the library. Such people are 51 markers in our lives. They add weight to our 52 of place and belonging.
Think about it. 53 , while walking to work, we mark where we are by 54 a certain building, why should we not mark where we are when we pass a familiar, though 55 , person?
