解析:

【語篇解讀】本文記述了作者一次因開會去拉斯維加斯時,飛機因沙塵暴而延時降落,在不斷延長的等待中,成人焦急、害怕,唯獨一個不知恐懼的嬰兒在享受著過山車一樣的顛簸。作者也深受啟發(fā),體驗了一次孩子的享受。

21.根據(jù)High desert winds……to close all but one runway,可知因沙塵暴關(guān)閉所有跑道,只留一條,故應(yīng)為延時降落。

22.應(yīng)為沙塵暴迫使機場關(guān)閉跑道。B意為“警告”;C意為“打掃,席卷”;D意為“提醒”,均不合題意。

23.飛機在等待降落的過程中應(yīng)該是繞城市盤旋。故應(yīng)選C。A. watch用于看動態(tài)的場面;B. visit意為“參觀,拜訪”,D. cross以為“橫穿”。

24.根據(jù)上文句意可知,飛機要繞城市盤旋幾分鐘以便等待著陸。

25.句意為:“我們被告知仍在座位上坐好,系好安全帶,因為飛機可能有顛簸!,此處應(yīng)為because引導(dǎo)的原因狀語從句。

26.make...pale by comparison“使……相形見絀”,此處用以強調(diào)飛機在空中極不穩(wěn)定。27.句意為:“像過山車一樣的巨烈運動使旅客惡心而不得不用嘔吐袋。A. sick 意為“惡心的”;B. nervous意為“緊張的”; C. angry 意為“生氣的”;D. afraid意為“害怕的”。

28.此空前的that指的是using airsickness bags,也就是發(fā)生在飛機上狹小空間中的嘔吐,因此選用narrow“狹窄的”,后面的space指的是飛機內(nèi)部空間。empty 意為“空的”,secret意為“秘密的”,均不合題意。

29.在這種情形下本來就很難受,在飛機上嘔吐使得這種難受更加強烈,此處serve意為“起……作用,用作……”。

30.根據(jù)后面的a sense of anxiety and fear可知,人們都很緊張、焦慮,在這種情形下飛機上的人一定是靜悄悄的。

31.飛機上的焦躁不安,應(yīng)該是能夠很明顯地被感覺到,故選clearly。

32.從后文中的he didn’t know he was supposed to be afraid and worried……,Those are what we grown-ups have learned……,他不知道害怕和著急……,那是我們成年人……,可推測出應(yīng)該是孩子。

33.應(yīng)是飛機的每一次顛簸讓孩子體驗坐過山車一樣的感受,孩子發(fā)出咯咯的笑。

34.句意為我意識到孩子不知道他應(yīng)該害怕和擔(dān)心。

35.應(yīng)是為他的安全擔(dān)心。

36.成人都是從孩子時代過來的。是成人的親身經(jīng)歷讓他們知道孩子不知道什么是害怕和擔(dān)心。

37.因為孩子不知道害怕,自然是在飛機的顛簸中享受坐過山車般的快樂。

38.sat back into my seat意為坐回到座位上,

39.句意應(yīng)為:“我坐回到我的座位上,假裝真地坐上了過山車!盇項意為“幾乎”;B項意為“最后”,D項意為“突然”,均不合題意。

40.我甚至咯咯地笑了一兩次。作者應(yīng)該是真的笑出了聲,才讓鄰座的手拿嘔吐袋的人懊惱。做成了某事用managed to do.
