　　I'd meant to go to Miros that day. I'd packed my bag and was ready. The motor-boat 1 in on time. The sky was cloudy, but the wind wasn't too strong for the two-hour 2 . I stood at my window, staring at the boat. Then I lost 3 of her, an old light-house partly blocking my view of the harbour(港口). A dozen passengers were 4 their way there. I was about to join them when a man's face 5 at the light-house window.

　　This was strange, because the light-house had been empty, unused and 6 for thirty years. It was stranger still, because I'd seen that 7 before. I couldn't place it but it was, or had once been, familiar to me. I opened my window and 8 across.

　　“I know we've met before, but I can't remember where.”

　　I 9 him to open his window if he could and answer me. He did neither. The face behind the glass 10 motionless(没有表情). Seeing him more clearly now, I knew he was not looking at me. He seemed to be looking upwards, 11 the clouds. How well I had known that face, sometime, somewhere!

　　I 12 again.“We met years ago. Was it in Athens in the 1950s? I used to live in Plaka.”

　　He didn't reply nor give any 13 that he'd heard. I went back further, to 14 I was in the navy (海军).“Perhaps we met at sea during the war,”and that thought at once 15 him to mind. Commander Leftis! He was Commander Leftis of course! How could I have forgotten? I'd saved his life once. But surely he…

　　The motor-boat 16 her bell. I turned my eyes. The wind had risen, but she was pulling 17 . Laughing, I called,“Now I've missed her, and it's your 18 , Commander!”

　　As the boat drew away, the face at the window faded. 19 minute it was there, looking up. I could see the whites of the eyes. The 20 it was gone.

　　Well, I didn't rush to the light-house. I knew that Leftis was dead. He died at sea in 1963 or' 64. But there's one other thing I ought to tell you: the motor-boat never reached Miros. It was lost in a storm, with all the passengers.

解析：

1．D　　导解：根据下文的描述，故事发生在港口，因此，用come in表示船进港了，开进来了。 　　2．B　　导解：voyage指“航海”，boating表示“划船（游玩）”，此处指两小时坐船在海上航行，因此选crossing，“横渡，横越”。 　　3．A　　导解：lose sight of表示“看不见”，灯塔挡住了“我”的视线，“我”看不见那艘船。 　　4．C　　导解：make one's way表示“行走，行进”，“乘客往那儿走”。 　　5．D　　导解：“我”刚要加入到他们中间，忽然看见有个人的脸孔出现在灯塔的窗前。 　　6．A　　导解：既然是“空”的，“没有使用”，当然是“锁着门”而不是“用链条拴着”。 　　7．B　　导解：与上文第7空处保持一致，也与下文的it吻合，用B而不是A． 　　8．C　　导解：“我”打开窗户，向对面大声喊叫。scream表示”（由于惊慌等）大声尖叫”。 　　9．A　　导解：“我”以为他会打开窗户应答“我”的。 　　10．B　　导解：对面那张脸孔还是没有任何表情。 　　11．D　　导解：look at the clouds，抬头“看着云彩”。 　　12．C　　导解：repeat不能与again连用，用try again，“我”又试着喊他。 　　13．C　　导解：他没有任何表情表明是否听见“我”说话。 　　14．A　　导解：when引导宾语从句表时间，“我”提起当海军的往日。 　　15．B　　导解：bring sb./sth. to mind表示“想起，记起”。 　　16．B　　导解：ring the bell表示“铃响了”。 　　17．D　　导解：pull out可表示“（车、船等）驶出，出发”，pull in表示“（船）到岸，靠岸”。 　　18．D　　导解：“我没赶上船，这全怪你”，it's one's fault表示“是某人的错”。 　　19．C　　导解：与下文相连，one moment/minute…the next (minute)表示时间上的紧密性，“刚才还……马上就……”。 　　20．A　　导解：与上一句连在一起，表示“刚才那张脸孔还在那儿，马上就不见了”（船开走了）。
