解析:
(1) |
作者正在等着上饭的时候,突然注意到(noticed)坐在靠近窗口的一个人不停地朝他这边扫视,引起了他的警觉。know意为“知道,了解,认识,认出”;understand意为“懂,了解;听说;以为”;notice意为“注意到;看到;留心”;recognize意为“认出;认可,承认”。根据句中关键词“Suddenly”可知只有noticed符合语境。 |
(2) |
那个人不停地朝作者这边扫视,好像(as if)他认识作者。since意为“自……以后/以来;因为;既然”;even if意为“即使”;though意为“虽然,尽管”;as if意为“好像,似乎”。句中的“kept glancing in my direction”是关键信息。 |
(3) |
那个人在面前展开(open)一张报纸,装作在看报。flat意为“(使)变平”;open意为“展开,开始,展现”;cut意为“切,割,剪”;fixed意为“固定,注视等”。根据下文“which he was 4 to read”可知报纸是展开的。 |
(4) |
那个人虽然展开了报纸,但是假装(pretending)在看报。他是在拿报纸作掩护,实际上是在窥视作者。hope意为“希望,盼望,期待”;think意为“认为,以为,预料”;pretend意为“假装,装扮”;continue意为“继续,连续”。从下文“but I could 5 that he was keeping an eye on me.”可知那个人并非真的在看报。 |
(5) |
作者可以看出(see)那个人一直在窥视他。see意为“发觉,注意,看见”;find意为“发现,找到,感到”;guess意为“猜测,推测,认为”;learn意为“获悉,了解,认识到”。该题根据上文意境容易作出判断。 |
(6) |
当服务员为我端来食物(food)时,那个人感到困惑。menu意为“菜单”;bill意为“账单,清单”;paper意为“纸,报纸,文件”;food意为“食物”。从第一段第一句中的“waiting for the food I had ordered to arrive”可知答案。 |
(7) |
那个人对我和服务员之间闲谈(chatted with)的那种常见的或听惯的(familiar)方式感到困惑。direct意为“直接的,直率的”;familiar意为“常见的,听惯的,熟悉的”;strange意为“陌生的,奇怪的”;funny意为“有趣的,好笑的,滑稽的,古怪的”。服务员和顾客之间简短的闲谈在服务场合是司空见惯的,由此常识可作出判断。 |
(8) |
chat with意为“与……聊天,与……闲谈”;look at意为“看着,考虑”;laugh at意为“嘲笑,漠视”;talk about意为“谈论,讨论,议论”。因为作者常去那家饭店,对那里的人和环境都比较熟悉,和服务员之间的闲聊是常有的事。 |
(9) |
时间(time)一分分地过去,那个人好像感到更加困惑。as time went on表示“时间渐渐地过去”。那个人对作者和服务员之间的那种闲聊的方式越来越感到怀疑。 |
(10) |
很明显(clear),那个饭店的服务员都认识作者。true意为“真实的,真正的,正确的”;hopeful意为“有希望的”;clear意为“明显的,清楚的,清晰的”;possible意为“可能的”。从第一段首句中的“…I was waiting at my favorite table in a restaurant”可知作者是这家饭店的常客,因此,这里所有的服务员都认识他是显而易见的。 |
(11) |
最后那个人站起来走进厨房(kitchen)。从下文“He came into the kitchen…”可知答案。 |
(12) |
那个人从厨房里出来付了账单后,没有再朝作者那边看一眼就离开(left)了饭店。leave意为“离开,动身,剩下”;act意为“行动,扮演”;sit down意为“坐下”;calm down意为“平静下来,镇定下来”。从下文可知侦探弄清作者不是他要找的人时,就离开了饭店。 |
(13) |
我向饭店主人询问那个人想要(wanted)什么。want意为“想要,希望,需要”;try意为“试图,试,试验”;order意为“命令,吩咐”;wish意为“希望,想要”。表示“想要……”时,want后可以直接跟宾语,wish后须加介词for后才能跟宾语。 |
(14) |
侦探原以为作者就是他在寻找(was looking for)的人,于是就跟随(follow)他来到这家饭店。meet意为“遇见,相遇,和……会面”;catch意为“捕获,赶上”;follow意为“跟随,注视,追随,注视”;discover意为“发现,发觉”。侦探发现可疑的人后,往往对其跟踪或盯梢。 |
(15) |
be to beat意为“打算打(败)”;be dealing with意为“在处理,在对付”;be to meet意为“打算会见/迎接”;be looking for意为“在寻找,在期待”。 |
(16) |
作者得知自己被误认为是嫌疑人而被盯梢时,表现出惊愕(surprise)。care意为“注意,照料,忧虑”;surprise意为“惊奇,惊愕,诧异”;worry意为“烦恼,忧虑,苦恼”;regret意为“遗憾,悔恨,抱歉”。句中的“What?”为关键信息词。 |
(17) |
饭店主人坚持(must)说侦探要找的人和作者看起来很像。must意为“坚持要,一定要”;can意为“可能,能够”;need意为“必须,必要”;may意为“可能,也许”。侦探在饭店主人有充足的理由证明作者不是他要找的人时,才肯罢休。 |
(18) |
饭店的人告诉侦探他搞错(mistake)了。make a discovery意为“发现”;make a mistake意为“做错,犯错(误)”;make a decision意为“作出决定”;make a fortune意为“发财,赚(大)钱”。侦探误以为作者是嫌疑人而对其进行跟踪,结果被饭店人员证明侦探搞错了。 |
(19) |
作者到店员认识他的饭店用餐感到很幸运(lucky)。pity意为“憾事,怜悯”;natural意为“自然的”;chance意为“机会,运气”;lucky意为“幸运的,侥幸的”。 |
(20) |
幸亏饭店的人和作者很熟,不然的话(otherwise),作者也许就陷入了麻烦。thus意为“因而,如此,从而,就这样”;however意为“可是,仍然”;otherwise意为“否则,不然的话”;therefore意为“因此,所以”。 |
