A serious car crash leads one woman to rediscover her faith in human kindness.
In March last year,the car I was driving was 1 in a serious crash with another car on a country road. I soon2 myself at the centre of a frenzy of activity,surrounded by paramedics, police, rescuers and members of the local community. An enormous can opener was used to 3 me out of my wrecked car and into an ambulance.
Over the 4 eight hours,I was transported to hospital,dragged up,X-rayed and diagnosed (诊断)with a broken neck. Knowing that I,d 5 death by a fraction of a second sustained (支撑) me throughout the long wait in the emergency ward and6 me to deal with the visible distress of my hospital visitors.
Only after I' d convinced the last friend to 7 could I direct my energies inwards. Flitting (飞快地掠过)in and out of my line of vision during my hospital 8 was the Red Cross lady,a gentle 9 in white who,from time to time,popped her head in to 10 cups of tea. After the visitors had gone,she ventured further into my cubicle to 11 if I was all right.
I found myself 12 her everything:about the shock of the 13 ,my attitude toward my family as a result of my injuries,and about my whole life. While I 14 for an ambulance to transport me to another hospital,she stood by my trolley and15 my hand as I off-loaded all the emotion I' d stoically withheld(强忍着的)from my family. She 16 ,quietly.
Even now,the 17 that I have her contact details provides me with great 18 .1 look forward to a day in the not-too-distant future when my guardian angel and I can meet again, in 19 circumstances.
In times of crisis,faith can sustain us:for me,my faith in human nature,reawakened by the 20 of a stranger, has helped ease my journey back to recovery.

一场灾难可以毁掉一个人的肉体,同样也可以带来一个人对人性的思考。作者通过自己遭遇车祸后的切身经历讲述了自己对人性本善的感悟。
1. D be involved in"被卷入",本句的意思是"我开的车和另一辆车在一条乡村小道上发生了严重的碰撞",车辆发生车祸,只能是"卷入/涉及(一场车祸中)"。be caught in遇上,遭遇到;be trapped in被困在,用于本句时主语不对,应用I;be lost in迷失。故选D。
2. B上文说到作者卷入了一场严重车祸。那么作为司机的"我"(昏迷醒来后)只能是"发现(find)" 自己成了混乱现场的焦点,并非置自己于此境地。
3. C一个巨大的开罐器把"我"从撞毁了的汽车里"弄"出来。根据急救常识,对事故中的受害者实施急救必须按照一定的安全程序进行,不能简单地"推(push)"、"拖(drag)"或采取其他"强制性的行动(force)"。而get不强调方式,故选geto get sb. out of sth.是常用搭配。
4. A在"我"被塞进救护车后,又发生了一系列的
事情。这些事情只能是在"随后的"时段里发生。
5. A survive death死里逃生。从下文"了解到…… 支撑着我渡过了在急诊室里的漫长等待"可知,只有求生愿望强烈的人才会如此:,所以,应选A。
6. D上文谈到当作者了解到自己从死亡的边缘幸存下来时,撑过了在急诊室里漫长的等待,继而"帮助(help)"自己应对探视者的悲伤。A项和C 项的主语应为"人";当自己想活下去的愿望能得以实现时,应对探视者的悲伤应该是一种自发的行为,而不是被强迫自己这么做。所以force 一词与此语境不符。
7. B根据作者要应对探视者的悲伤情绪可知,只有在作者确信最后一个朋友离开(leave)了,自己才能把注意力集中在医院里。
8. A stay表示短时间的逗留、停留,这里表示在"我"住院期间,本句正常语序是...the Red Cross lady was flitting in and out of my line of vision during my hospital stay.意思是:在我住院期间,一个红十字会的女士在我的视野中进进出出。此处的名词应与my构成逻辑上的主谓关系。而operation 应包括在stay里;visit的逻辑主语应为探视者; appointment所表行为不符合作者此时的健康状况。
9. C gentle presence表示"举止温和"。
10. B在病房中端茶送水。
11. D从上文可以看出,"她"的工作就是陪护,所以在访友走后,她要来检查("我"的情况).
12. D从下文的描述可以得知,在"我"住院期间"我"和她谈了很多事:对于车祸的震惊,车祸受伤后"我"对待家人的态度,还有"我"生活的一切。
13. A注意选项的区别:accident事故;incident事情;event事件;occasion场合。
14. C救护车要送"我"到另一家医院,她站在"我" 的推车旁,握着"我"的手听"我"倾诉,这些事应该是在作者"等待"救护车的到达以离开这家医院时发生的。
15. A根据常识,当送行者倾听被送者的倾诉时,应是抓着对方的手,何况作者是一个受了重伤的病人。
16. D从上文的叙述中可以得知,她照顾病人很用心,对于"我"的情感发泄会安静"倾听"。而frown,smile和cry都和此时护理人员应表现出来的行为不相符。
17. A knowledge知识,学问;知道,了解。that I have her contact detai Is是一个事实,是knowledge 的同位语从句。
18. D病人和陪护人员之间的沟通给"我"很大的"宽慰"。
19.B既然是再次相逢,当然是在等"我"伤愈了这样一个"更加快乐"的氛围中。
20. C与开头呼应,指被一个陌生人的"友善"唤醒。
