【解析】【1】此处set out to do sth.是固定词组,表示“打算去做某事”从语境知作者认为“实现你原本计划要做的事情并不是那么重要”。set about doing sth.动手做某事”

【2】从下文through the earth可知两兄弟要挖一个很深的洞所以用a deep hole选B项

【3】从下文可知当这对兄弟正在工作时两个年长的男孩路过此地并停下来观看。watch观看观察”符合语境

【4】问他们在干什么兄弟俩其中一个非常兴奋主动地说他们要挖一个贯穿地球的深洞。volunteer主动告诉”符合语境。whisper轻轻说”;comment“评论”;lecture“发表演说”都与语境不符

【5】从上下文可知那两个年长的男孩大笑起来告诉(tell)他们要挖一个贯穿地球的洞是不可能的(impossible)。express表达”;explain“解释”;argue“争辩”都与语境不符

【6】参见上题解析。unnecessary没必要的”;unbelievable“难以置信的”;incorrect“不正确的”都与语境不符

【7】尽管遭到嘲笑但那对年轻的兄弟并没有理会继续挖他们的洞最后挖到了一罐虫子。after a long silence表示“经过很长时间的沉默符合语境

【8】从下文可知他把盖子拿开(remove)显示给那两个嘲笑他们的旁观者(visitors)看。fold折叠”;cover“覆盖”;delete“删除”据此选C项

【9】参见上题解析第三段也有答案提示

【10】他平静但很自信地(confidently)说“即使我们没有挖通地球,但我们还是有所收获的”curiously好奇地”;immediately“立刻马上”;strictly“严格的”都不符合语境所以选A

【11】从下一句可知此处表示他们的目标(goal)虽然过高还是促使(cause)他们去付诸实践去挖地洞。

【12】参见上题解析下文cause us to move也是答案提示

【13】解析:选D从上下文可知目标可以让我们朝我们选定的方向(direction)前行。decision决定”;feeling“感觉”;chance“机会”都不符合语境

【14】这里是对前一句的进一步解释故用in other words“换句话说。as a result果”;now and then“不时地”;all the way“一直一路上”都不符合语境

【15】第一段中有“achieving what you...”提示此处语意为“并不是所有的目标都能完全实现(achieve)”

【16】根据语境此处表示“实现梦想”用固定词组realize the dream所以选C项

【17】但是当你的目标达不到(fall short of)时你可以说“是的虽然没有达到目标但(but)看看我在此过程中找到的东西吧!”这里的fall short of是固定词组表示“缺乏达不到”。correspond to回应”,head for朝……方向去”live up to“达到符合”都不符合语境

【18】参见上题解析
