答案
Ⅰ.完形填空
这是一篇夹叙夹议文。

一对恋人在旅途中要求下车，后来旅游车被落石击中，旁人听了这个故事感叹这对恋人的运气好，而这对恋人却觉得是自己要下车耽误了时间才导致车祸发生的。

不同的想法代表了人们不同的世界观。

1．D从故事情节看，这里说的是客车行驶在路上，不能用it was time to do sth.表示“做某事的时间到了”，而应用it was about to do sth.表示“正准备做某事”。

2．A这里说的是一对恋人，因此用couple 表示“一对”。

3．B这里说的是这对恋人要求下车，故用call for 表示“要求”。

4．C这里用go on 表示“继续”。

客车继续往前行驶。

5．B此处表示客车往前开，然后被山上的落石击中了。

因此这里用ahead 表示“向前，往前”。

6．A客车掉进了深谷，无人生还，听到这个消息，他们应该是感到震惊。

故选shocked。

7．C根据上题解析可知，应选C，表示“幸存”。

8．D看到悲剧的发生，这对恋人感到惋惜和难过，因此选D，表示“叹息”。

本题答案在后面的第13空处也有提示。

9．D根据定语tourist 可知，这里应用bus 表示送游客的游览车。

下文的“On our bus”也是提示。

10．A这里用副词immediately 表示“立即，即刻”。

他询问作者他们这对恋人在车祸发生之后说了什么。

11．C有些人错过了车，结果躲过了灾难，这样的乘客可谓“幸
运”。

故选C项。

12．B根据上题解析可知，此处应用avoid 表示“躲避，避免”。

13．C自己躲过劫难，觉得很幸运，因此当然会如释重负了，故选relief。

14．C根据后面的various 可判断选C。

游客的回答五花八门。

15．B这对恋人要求下车，结果耽搁了时间。

故选B项。

16．B如果不是他们要求下车耽误了时间，这辆车就能开出那个危险地带了。

因此选B，表示“过去，经过”。

17．A别人听这个故事感受到的是智慧，但作者的想法却不同。

think otherwise 表示“并非如此认为”，符合语境。

18．A作者认为这个故事其实是在考验一个人的思想境界。

故用examination“考察”。

19．B从前面的叙述可知，这对恋人非常自责，因此选B。

20．D根据语境可知，此处表示人都有怜悯之心。

Ⅱ.阅读理解
1．C细节理解题。

根据文章首段第二句可以发现，A、B、D 都提到，故答案选C。

2．B词义猜测题。

根据划线部分后面的“That is, new organizations will not appear recent ly.”可知，新的组织不会在最近出现，因此，划线词的含义应为“暂缓，暂停”的意思。

3．D细节理解题。

根据倒数第二句“Around 20 percent of infertile couples have to resort to ART to have babies.”可知答案。

4．A主旨大意题。

本文体裁是新闻报道，文章的首句即是文章的主题句。

首句意为：星期二中国卫生当局发起了一场反对辅助生
殖技术(ART)滥用的活动。
