  One day when she was to   5   at a lunch party, a reporter caught her off her guard by bringing up the   6   of her missing son again.She was totally mentally   7   for the question and lost her   8  .Tears were rolling down her eyes   9   she sobbingly told the reporter there was still no news of Mark and that she was very   10   about him.She said that all the countries concerned had promised to do their best to help her find her son.With that she   11   down completely and sobbed silently for quite a while.Gradually she   12   down and started to speak as planned.It was a very   13   scene which exposed a new side of Mrs.Thatcher’s   14   the public do not usually see, so people began to   15   about the Iron Woman’s motherly love, a feeling   16   is common to all human race.

解析:

(1)

本文是说撒切尔夫人虽然是非常了不起的政治领导人,但是,当她儿子失踪后,她也无法控制自己的情绪,表现出她那伟大的母爱。usually意为“往常地”;quite意为“很”;frequently意为“频繁地”;seldom意为“不常地”。本文是指“往日地镇静”,故选C项。

(2)

此处是指撒切尔夫人尽力假装好像没有发生什么事情。

(3)

have sth.under control意为“遇事能控制”。

(4)

因为儿子失踪,像她这样的领导人,也难以从那震惊中恢复过来。shock是“震惊”的意思,因此选D项。

(5)

从下文可看出她要在party上演讲。

(6)

记者提出了关于她儿子失踪的话题,因此用subject。

(7)

从当时的情景可看出,没有思想准备。

(8)

无思想准备就失去了自控,因此选self-control。

(9)

一边啜泣一边流泪,as意思是“一边……,一边……”。

(10)

事实上她一直在为儿子担心,因此选worried。

(11)

break down这里指心理上的崩溃。

(12)

calm down意为“镇静”。

(13)

moving意为“感人的”。

(14)

这里指她的品格。

(15)

此处指人们谈论撒切尔“铁娘子”的母爱。

(16)

that引导的是定语从句,先行词是a feeling, a feeling是love的同位语。

(17)

safe and sound意为“安然无恙”。

(18)

儿子一切完好,好像没曾发生过什么事。

(19)

用ever表示“曾经”。

(20)

撒切尔夫人又一次被看见啜泣,因此选A项。
