题型：不详难度：来源：
A friend of mine met with an accident driving in darkness. His legs were so hurt that he couldn’t move. What was the __36__ was he found himself unable to ask for help-his mobile phone went out of __37__ as a result of exhausted battery. Nothing could be done but to __38__ in cold wilderness. It was 8 hours later that day broke, and then the __39__ of the rescue.
It is almost __40__ that he could stand the horror in the darkness for so long. Even more surprising was his __41__: “First of all I checked up my __42__ conditions and found myself not in fatal danger. As there was no __43__ to call for help, I leaned back in my seat trying my best to keep the wound from __44__. In this way I dozed (打盹) off.”
His story put an end to my regret for the __45__ of an exploration adventure that happened last year. A group of young men __46__ to explore a mountain cave and got lost. __47__ to find a way out in the dark cave they were frightened and ran anxiously without a sense of __48__. Finally they fell dead in fear and exhaustion. According to the __49__ people that found them, the place where they got lost was only about 10 meters away from the __50__ of the cave. If they stayed on the spot when they lost their way and tried to __51__ themselves, they would probably sense a faint light glimmering (闪烁) not far away.
Don’t you think that you can compare it with __52__ itself? When you meet with obstacles in life and work, you are lost in darkness. __53__ you it’s unclear yet and you needn’t put up struggle __54__. It seems to be a negative attitude, __55__ a person who can afford to do so must have foresight as well as a great courage in the first place.

解析
36.B 此处突出强调状况之“糟”。他动不了，更为糟糕的是他不能求救。
37.D 因为电池用尽，手机不能用了，go out of work意为“不工作”。out of service当“停止服务”讲，out of order当“混乱”讲。
38.C 此处表示除了“等”之外，别无选择。此处是固定句型nothing can be done but do, 相当于have no choice but to do从作者叙述的朋友在深夜受伤但非常镇静这一事实可知其他动词不合题意。
39.D 从后文看，作者的朋友最终获救了，因此此处应是援救“到来”了。“耽误”不合题意，因为作者已经说明朋友没有办法呼救；此处作者强调的也不是“成功”。
40.B 在黑夜里如此长时间忍受恐惧，作者认为这是令人“无法想象的”。作者此处是在赞扬朋友在那样的情况下能如此镇静，其他选项不合题意。
41.C 这是指朋友后来的“解释”。从后文可以排除其他选项，此处不是朋友的“借口”，更不是“计划”和“决定”。
42.A 在受伤的情况下，检查的应是“身体的”状况，后面“没有生命危险”也印证了这一点。“精神的”，“工作的”，“医疗的”在此都不合语境。
43.B 此处指做事情的“方式”，应用way,指没有办法呼救。method多表示解决问题的具体“方法”。如：his studying method。
44.D 因为朋友在车祸中受了重伤，又没法“呼救”，因此应实施自救，阻止伤口“流血”。
45.B 从后文可知，探险“失败”了。loss的意思是“损失”，不合题意。
46.C 探险没有成功，因此此处只能是“尝试”去做。manage to do sth.表示“设法干成了某事”，与整个事情的结局矛盾。
47.B 从后文“这群年轻人乱作一团”可知，他们找不到出口。其他选项“决心”，“愿意”等不合逻辑。
48.D 由这群年轻人迷路可知，他们乱跑一气，没有了“方向”感。
49.A 发现年轻人失败真相的应是“营救”人员。由具体的语境可排除其他选项，此处不是指“当地的人”，作者强调的也不是“勇敢的人”。
50.C 从后面“亮光闪烁”可知，这儿指的是“出口”，故用opening。
51.D 作者强调的就是人们处于危急或困境时应“保持镇静”，故用calm。
52.C 作者由上述两个事例联想到“生活”。life意义最具有概括性。作者把上述的经验和教训与人们的实际生活联系起来，其他选项都太片面。
53.A mind sb.当“提醒某人”讲。处于迷茫状态时，你应该提醒自己情况不明朗，不要轻举妄动。watch“注视、监视”；imagine“想象”不合题意；warn“警告”语气太强，用在此处也不合适。
54.B 作者强调人们在处于危急或困境时应“保持镇静”，不要轻举妄动，因此不必“立即”去斗争。其他副词都偏离了作者所表达的中心。
55.C 前后文构成的是转折关系。这种态度似乎是消极的，但却表现了一个人的智慧和勇气。理顺了上下文的逻辑关系，就能排除其他选项的干扰。 |
