Of all the men who ever liked fresh air, no one liked it more than James Wilson did. He 1 slept with his windows open even 2 snow was falling outside.
One winter Wilson went to Finland on business. When he 3 his room in the hotel he found that the windows were closed to 4 the icy air out. He did his best to open 5 , but failed.
The bed was really 6 , but Wilson could not sleep. He could not 7 the closed windows. No fresh air! It was 8 to think of!
At about one o'clock in the morning he was 9 awake, worrying about the air in the room. He became very 10 . Where was the windows? He could see something that looked like 11 over there. He threw a shoe at it through the 12 with all the force of his strong right arm. A terrible sound of breaking glass 13 the room, but to Wilson's sad heart it seemed like the sound of 14 music. Five minutes later he was peacefully asleep.
When daylight came through the window, he 15 and lay with his eyes closed. There was 16 to worry about. What was it? Oh, the broken window! Yes, indeed. He would have to pay 17 that. He opened his eyes to look.
Suddenly he 18 in surprise; the window was not broken at all. The glass was all in one piece, just as good as it had been the night before. 19 was entering the room through the window!
He then turned his eyes to the side and saw a broken picture hanging on the wall. There was 20 on the floor below it, and a lot of broken glass round the shoe.

解析:
1.根据下文可知,即使是在冬天的晚上,他也开着窗户睡觉,所以答案为D. 2.这里指“即使是下雪的时候”. 3.指Wilson一进门,就发现窗户紧闭,相当于go/step into. 4.keep… out(of)…是固定短语,意为“把……阻止在……外”. 5.上文中的windows(pl.)说明这个房间不只一个窗户.这里用one说明他试图打开其中一扇窗户. 6.此处指“床虽然舒适,但Wilson还是无法入睡”. 7.Wilson一直记得窗户关着,不能安然入睡. 8.一想到窗户紧闭,没有新鲜空气进来,Wilson就感到可怕. 9.still这里表示“仍然”. 10.根据下文可知,他对这家旅馆感到恼火,拿起鞋子就向窗户扔过去. 11.look like glass指在黑暗中,Wilson以为是窗玻璃. 12.凌晨一点钟时,天肯定是黑暗的. 13.fill意为“充满、充斥”,其他三词均不具备此意. 14.Wilson以为打破窗玻璃,新鲜空气可以进来了,他也可以安然入睡了.这玻璃的破碎声,对于他来说,无异于美妙的音乐. 15.指Wilson一觉醒来. 16.指他打破了窗玻璃这件事. 17.pay for(固定短语)意为“付……的钱”. 18.sit up意为“(在床上)坐起来”.根据当时情况,其他三个选项不妥. 19.依上文可知,这里应填no fresh air. 20.根据上文11~12空之间的a shoe可知,正确答案为C. |
