theatre. With the opening night only a week away, I was still learning my lines by heart. I was having
2 handling my part-time job at the bank in the daytime and my acting at night at the same time. As I walked, I thought seriously about
3 both acting and San Francisco. I had
4 too much of the city life.
As I walked down the 5 streets under the tall buildings, I felt very small and cold, so I began 6 both to keep warm and to keep away from any possible robbers. Very few people were still out 7 a few homeless people under blankets.
About a block from my 8 , I heard a sound behind me. I 9 quickly, half expecting to see someone with a knife or a gun. The street was empty. All I saw was a shining streetlight. Still, the noise had made me 10 so I started to run faster. Not until I reached my apartment building and unlocked the door did I 11
what the noise had been. It had been my wallet 12 to the sidewalk. Suddenly I wasn ’t cold or tired anymore. I ran out of the door and back to where I ’d heard the noise. Although I searched the sidewalk 13 for 15 minutes, my wallet was 14 to be found.
Just as I was about to quit the 15 , I heard the garbage truck stop to the sidewalk next to 16 . When a voice came from the inside, “Alisa Camcho? ” I thought I was dreaming. How could this man know my name? The door opened and out jumped a small blonde man with an 17
look in his eyes. “Is this 18 you ’re looking for? ” He asked, holding up something like a
wallet. Finally, I got my wallet back. I also got back some 19 of city life. I realized the city couldn ’t be a bad place as soon as people were

答案解析
【文章大意】忙碌的城市生活使作者对城市的美好期望变成了失望。

可一次晚上回家途中的经历改变了作者的看法。

原来城市生活也是很美好的。

1. 【解析】选C。

考查形容词。

根据around one o’clock和practice可知我在剧院一直练到凌晨一点左右。

由常识可知，练这么长时间一定是很令人疲劳的（tiresome）。

2. 【解析】选D。

考查名词。

离演出还有一周，但我还在背台词，因为我平时时间很紧。

一方面白天我在银行有兼职工作，另一方面晚上我要表演，我觉得处理这两件事很难。

have trouble doing sth. 意为“做某事很困难”。

3. 【解析】选B。

考查动词短语。

忙到凌晨一点左右才回家，这种日子太辛苦。

我边走边认真考虑要放弃我的表演，离开旧金山。

set up意为“成立；建立”，give up意为“放弃”，hold up意为“举起；阻止”，pick up意为“接人（上车）；偶然学会；捡起”。

4. 【解析】选A。

考查动词。

我本来对旧金山的城市生活抱有很大的期望，但期望越大，现在失望越大。

5. 【解析】选A。

考查形容词。

根据常识，凌晨一点左右，大街上很空旷（deserted），很少有行人和车辆。

这与第7空前的Very few people were still out 和第9空后的The street was empty相呼应。

6. 【解析】选A。

考查动词。

由此空前的walked down和felt. . . cold及后面的keep warm可知此处应是“跑”。

我开始跑了起来，一方面是为了取暖，另一方面是远离可能遇到的抢劫者。

7. 【解析】选B。

考查介词。

凌晨一点左右，大街上除了（except）裹着毯子的无家可归者，很少有人了。

8. 【解析】选C。

考查名词。

现在离家还有一个街区了。

此处的apartment指作者住的公寓套房。

后文的Not until I reached my apartment building也给出暗示。

9. 【解析】选C。

考查动词。

听到身后有响声，这令作者怀疑有人抢劫，所以我转身想看看是否有人持刀或持枪抢劫。

10. 【解析】选C。

考查形容词。

我看到的只是明亮的街灯。

尽管如此，刚才身后的响声还是令人害怕（frightened）。

因为害怕，我才跑得更快了（run faster）。

11. 【解析】选B。

考查动词短语。

直到我到家并打开门锁之后才意识到之前的响声是什么了。

figure out意为“领会到，弄清楚”。

turn out意为“结果是，证明是”，give out意为“发出；分发；耗尽”，pull out意为“拔出”。

12. 【解析】选D。

考查动词。

原来是自己的钱包掉到（fall to）路上所发出的声音。

13. 【解析】选B。

考查副词。

作者丢了钱包后，决定重返路上去寻找，作者的心情当然是很焦急的。

14. 【解析】选A。

考查副词。

根据下文，钱包后来被他人拾去了，所以尽管作者在路上焦急地找了15分钟，还是找不着。

15. 【解析】选C。

考查名词。

此题属于原词复现。

第13空前有动词searched，此处search为名词。

16. 【解析】选D。

考查代词。

下文提到，车上的人下来和我说话，说明此时的垃圾车是停在我旁边的人行道上。

17. 【解析】选A。

考查形容词。

车停了下来，一个个子不高的金发男子下了车，眼中露出愉悦的神情。

amused意为“愉快的”，此处amused look指男子微笑着对我说话。

18. 【解析】选A。

考查连词。

“这就是你在找的东西吗？”他问道。

19. 【解析】选D。

考查名词。

作者本来对城市生活很失望，但现在钱包失而复得，对城市的印象立即改变了，心中充满了感激（appreciation）之情。

20. 【解析】选B。

考查动词。

最后作者意识到，只要在城市中，人与人之间愿意彼此帮助，城市生活还是很美好的。
