Another of my patients, a successful businessman, tells me that before his cancer he would become depressed unless things went a certain way. Happiness was “having the cookie”. If you had the cookie,1 were good. If you didn't have the cookie, 2 wasn't worth a damn.
Unfortunately, the cookie 3changing. Some of the time it was money. At 4times, it was a new car. A year and a half after his 5 of cancer he sits shaking his head all the time.“When I 6 my son a cookie, he is happy. If I take the cookie away or it 7 , he is unhappy. But he is two and a half and I am fortythree. It's 8 me this long to understand that the cookie will 9 make me happy for long. The minute you have the cookie it 10 to crumble or you start to 11 about it crumbling or about 12 trying to take it away from you. You may not even get a 13 to eat it because you are so busy just trying not to lose it. Having the cookie is not 14 life is about.”
My patient 15 and says cancer has changed him. For the first time he is happy. No matter whether his business is doing well or not, no matter whether he 16 or loses at golf.“Two years ago, 17 asked me, ‘Okay, what is 18 important?’ Well, life is important. Life. Life any way you can have it. Life with the cookie. Life without the cookie. Happiness does not have anything to19 with the cookie,” he 20 thoughtfully, “And I guess life is the cookie.”

【解析】(1)如果你有cookie,一切就都很好。things“情况”,常用复数形式; matter“物质”; incident“事件”; affair“事物”。
(2)句意:如果你没有cookie,生活就毫无价值了。本文借助cookie的得失,谈“生活”的意义,这样,happiness, luck和fortune都和文章意思不符。
(3)不幸的是cookie不断地变化。keep changing是“保持变化”之意。A、C两项是“喜爱”之意; D项意为“继续”,均不符合句意。
(4)在其他时候,cookie则是一辆新车。at other times“在其他一些时候”; another一般指三者以上的另一个; the other是两者中的另一个。
(5)diagnosis“诊断”。根据上下文的意思,the diagnosis of cancer意思是“确诊为癌症”;不是“条件”或者“治疗”之意。
(6)当“我”给儿子一个cookie,他就高兴。此处的情景是“给”,不是“给某人看”; help, invite也不符合句意。
(7)如果cookie破碎了,他就不高兴。这里是和上句进行比较。其中break有“破碎”之意; leave“离开”; burn“燃烧”; cut“砍”。
(8)已经花了这么多的时间才明白……。take这里是“花费”时间。It takes sb. some time to do sth.是固定句型,意思是“某人做某事花了多少时间”。cost的主语一般是事物; spend的主语一般是人。
(9)cookie从来没有让我高兴多长时间。根据上下文的意思,这里指cookie并不能满足“我”;所以其他选项表示的肯定意义是错误的。
(10)当你拥有了cookie,它就“开始破碎”。plan, want和mean不符合这里的情景。
(11)你开始担心它会破碎了。worry about意为“为……担心”。
(12)这里指“……或者某个人会拿走”。anyone和everyone表示的意思和这里的语境不符; no one在这里的意思是错误的。
(13)句意:你可能甚至没机会吃。have money是“有钱”; have right“有权”; have interest“有兴趣”。这些意思均和上下文不符。
(14)拥有cookie并不是生活的全部。what life is about是表语从句,意思是“生活的内容”。that和which两项表达的意思不对;why作原因状语。
(15)“我”的病人笑了起来。根据他的心里的变化,这里是“大笑”;另外此处也没有令人“哭”、“喊”等语境。
(16)句意:不管是输还是赢了高尔夫球。“赢”和后面的“输”相对应,平行、对比等句子结构的分析常是做题的重要方法。
(17)此处的情景:是癌症问“我”。结合全文提到的他和疾病的斗争,是癌症改变了他对生活的看法,所以这里应该是cancer问。
(18)该句的意思是“什么真的重要?”或者“生活中到底是什么重要?”这里是“我”的病人对癌症提出的问题给予的回答。
(19)幸福和cookie没有任何关系。have sth. to do with是固定搭配意为“与……有关系”,这里前面有not,是否定句。
(20)这里的意思是“他若有所思地停顿了一下说”。pause意为“停顿”,此处指说话过程中的短暂停顿; stop是“停止”之意;这里也不是“重复”或“等待”的语境。
