I broke the  36  on purpose, 37  that the driver was too tired to drive. “When do you go back home in the evening?”“9 o’clock after this  38 .”“Then when do you come out in the moming?”I  39  another question.“9 o’clock, too-just as if I worked at an office.”His  40  surprised me, because every time I ride a taxi, what I   41   from the driver are only complaints that they have to work from morning till night, it’s hard to earn money they’re often   42  by the police, or that their leaders are seated lazily, 43  the fruits. But this driver told me,“I find it  44   to be a section chief as I was before. I like driving just for  45. It’s fortunate that I hardly drive  46  a passenger. So I earn two or three thousand yuan a month with ease. Yes, I never  47  an empty taxi. If it goes southward, I go northward. If it goes along a  48 , I turn into a narrow street…”

His words showed his  49   with his life and the pride he  50  in his job. Such feelings are so rare among people nowadays as oxygen in high  51 . As an ancient saying goes,“Neither joy in material  52  nor grieve (悲痛) over personal setbacks.”How many people nowadays can show high ideals by  53  living and go far with a calm mind? I couldn’t help feeling  54  when finding such a state of mind in a stranger on a cold  55.

【解析】36. C too…to…  表示“太……而不能”,选 C项,作者有意打破沉默,以免司机因为疲劳而出问题。

37. B 四个短语的含义:A“条件是”,B“害怕,唯恐”,C“相信”,D“以便”。语境表示害怕司机开车会太疲劳而有意和他攀谈,因此选B项。

38. B 这个故事发生在晚上,司机说他送完我这趟就回家,由此判断选B项,表示“出行”。A“夜晚”,C“循环”,D“过程”都不符合语境。

39. A 问了第一个问题之后,我接着对他发问。用throw out表示“随口说出”,如throw ont one’s suggestion“说出某人的建议”。B“赠送,泄露”,C“编造,虚构”,D“导致,造成”。

40. D 从这个司机的回答看,他不像别的出租车司机那样辛苦,他如此自在,这让“我”感到十分诧异。这里用easiness表示“自在,自如”。

41. D 我每次坐出租车的时候,从司机那儿听到的都是抱怨,说他们要从清早工作到深夜……这里用hear表示“听见,听到”。

42. C 赚钱很难,而且经常被警察罚款。从语境和选项看,出租车司机应是被警察“罚款”,所以选C

43. C 或者埋怨说,领导懒洋洋地坐在办公室里享受他们的劳动果实

44. C 从下面的叙述可知,这个司机觉得他原先那种日子很无聊,让人觉得很厌烦,因此选C项。

45. B 从前面的叙述可推知,这个人觉得当出租车司机很惬意:他每天不用早起,不用晚归,而且自己每个月能赚到足够的钱。

46. A 这里用hardly…Without的双重否定表示肯定的含义:很幸运,我几乎从来没有拉过空车。

47. A 从下文叙述判断选A项,从来不跟在跑空车的出租车后面,这样的车向南开,他就开车往北去。

48. D 与下文的“狭窄的街道”呼应,这里选D项表示“公路”。

49. B 从前文这个司机的叙述看,他很满意自己开出租车的生活,因此选B项。

50. D 从搭配看,这里用 take prid en表示“以……自豪”。

51. B 从生活常识可知,高山上的氧气稀薄,因此选B项。

52. A 就像一句老话所说的,“不以物喜,不以己悲”,不以物质的收获为喜,不以个人的挫折为痛苦。

53. C 就像这个司机这样的境界,过一种简单而有思想的生活。simple与前面的high相对,符合语境。

54. D 此情此景,不禁让我感到不寻常。A“愤怒的”,B“满意的”,C“危险的”都不符合语境。

55. B 文章开头就暗示了故事发生的时间是晚上。
