My father believed that there were mysterious forces (神秘的力量) at work in the world. One day, he was lecturing me on those mysterious forces (36) suddenly the door opened, and a women entered, (37) two geese. She smiled (38) and looked frightened.
Joseph, I have a very (39) problem. These dead geese, they keep shrieking (尖声叫) in such a sad voice... " (40) hearing this, my father turned pale. " (41) dead geese don’t shriek," my mother cut in. “You’ll hear for yourself," replied the woman, It is impossible to (42) what I heard. My hands grew (43) and I wanted to run from the room.
Father was no less (44) than I was. He jumped away from the table. “Joseph, what shall I do?" the woman cried." (45) ? I’m a poor woman. Two geese! They (46) me a fortune!"
Father did not know what to answer. (47) face was growing sharper and more (48) . "I want to hear it again," she said. And so for the second and the third time, the shrieks were (49) . Nobody said anything. The woman asked, "Well, I didn’t (50) it, did I?"
Suddenly my mother laughed. "Did you (51) the windpipes (气管)?" my mother asked. “The windpipes? No ..." “Let me (52) ," said Mother. She took hold of one of the geese, and pulled out the windpipe. She did the same with the other one. I was surprised by my mother’s (53) . "Now, try it again. " I was (54) to hear the geese shriek, but they were dead silent. “There is always (55) why dead geese shriek," said my mother. "Now go home and cook them for the meal. They won’t make a sound in your pot. "
选项
A、remove
B、change
C、break
D、block
答案
A
解析
考查动词辨义和上下文理解。从下文的描述可知,作者母亲把鹅的气管拔掉(pulled out)后鹅就不叫了,故此处当然是询问那个女人有没有把鹅的气管拔掉,选项中有“拔掉,去除”义的是remove。其余三项填入题中都不合逻辑:change指“改变,改换”.break指“打破,折断”;block指“阻住,堵塞”。
